　　More and more, the operations of our business, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substantial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.
　　It's easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing, but even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.
　　Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it's disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may have been the victims of uncommonly bad luck.
　　For example, a certain keypunch operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards she was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off the company that was being robbed.
　　Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.
　　Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled the most confidential records right under the noses of the company's executives, accountants, and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.
　　1.It can be concluded from the passage that .
　　A. it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today
　　B. computer crimes are the one of most serious problem in the operation of financial institutions
　　C. computer criminals can escape punishment because they can't be detected
　　D. people commit computer crimes at the request of their company
　　2.It is implied in the third paragraph that .
　　A. many more computer crimes go undetected than are discovered
　　B. the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problem
　　C. most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimes
　　D. most computer criminals who are caught blame their bad luck
　　3.Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?
　　A. A strict law against computer crimes must be enforced.
　　B. Companies need to impose restrictions on confidential information.
　　C. Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation.
　　D. Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes.
　　4. The underlying reason for the computer criminals to get recommendations he needs is that .
　　A. they have skills formidably difficult for others to master
　　B. the employers are afraid that they would take avenge if punished
　　C. the employers are much afraid of bringing the public into disbelief towards them through the criminals words in open court
　　D. those who commit crimes do not mean bad
　　5.What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught?
　　A. With bad reputation they can hardly find another job.
　　B. They will be denied access to confidential records.
　　C. They may walk away and easily find another job.
　　D. They must leave the country or go to jail.

　　答案與詳解
　　【短文大意】本文主要講述計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪很難被發(fā)現(xiàn)，即使一旦被發(fā)現(xiàn)，也不會(huì)像其它犯罪一樣，被流放或進(jìn)監(jiān)獄，反而常常是得到原雇主的褒揚(yáng)和推薦，從而找到另外一份好工作。
　　1.B推斷題。首先根據(jù)第二段可知，A是錯(cuò)誤的，因?yàn)橛?jì)算機(jī)犯罪不是不能發(fā)現(xiàn)的。C"用計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪的罪犯可以逃脫懲罰，因?yàn)樗麄儾粫?huì)被發(fā)現(xiàn)"，D"利用計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪的人是應(yīng)他們公司的要求這樣做的"都是錯(cuò)誤的，文中沒有提到。只有B，"計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪是金融機(jī)構(gòu)里最嚴(yán)重的問題"是在文中第一段中暗示了的。因此選B。
　　2.A推斷題。文章的第三段指出，"究竟有多少計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪，我們沒有確切的統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)字，令人不安的是很多計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪是偶然中被發(fā)現(xiàn)的，而不是系統(tǒng)的檢查或者通過其他安全防范措施而發(fā)現(xiàn)的。"這說明A是正確的：沒有被發(fā)現(xiàn)的計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪比被發(fā)現(xiàn)的計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪要多得多。
　　3.D細(xì)節(jié)題。A是"應(yīng)該建立一套嚴(yán)格的反計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪的法律"，B"公司應(yīng)該對(duì)絕密的材料進(jìn)行嚴(yán)格的控制"，C"公司為了維護(hù)其聲譽(yù)，應(yīng)該對(duì)計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪嚴(yán)加防范"，文中都沒有提到。只有D在文中最后兩段中有所表述。公司出于對(duì)自己聲譽(yù)的考慮，往往對(duì)計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪含糊其辭，遮遮掩掩。
　　4.C細(xì)節(jié)題。雇主對(duì)計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪者的寬容可能有各種原因。A、B、C、D所說的情形，在現(xiàn)實(shí)中都可以出現(xiàn)，但文中提到的只有C項(xiàng)，參見末段。
　　5.C細(xì)節(jié)題。答案在文中的倒數(shù)第二段中：計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪分子和其他犯罪分子不同的是，他們不僅不會(huì)流亡國(guó)外，或者自殺或者進(jìn)監(jiān)獄，而且還往往得到原雇主的褒揚(yáng)和推薦，從而找到另外一份好工作。
　　參考譯文
　　企業(yè)、政府以及金融機(jī)構(gòu)的運(yùn)作越來越多地被存在于計(jì)算內(nèi)存中的信息所控制。只要夠聰明，任何人為了個(gè)人目的而修改了這些信息都可以獲得豐厚的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)，更糟的是，許多從事這類活動(dòng)并被抓住的人卻已大搖大擺的逃脫了懲罰。
　　如果人們不去檢查計(jì)算機(jī)正在做什么，那么計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪是很難被發(fā)現(xiàn)的，但是即使犯罪被發(fā)現(xiàn)，犯罪者也可能逃脫懲罰甚至?xí)艿揭郧肮椭鞯母叨劝龘P(yáng)和推薦。
　　當(dāng)然，我們沒有未被發(fā)現(xiàn)的罪犯的統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)字。但是，當(dāng)我們談到我們所了解的僅僅是被偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)而不是系統(tǒng)監(jiān)測(cè)或其他安全程序發(fā)現(xiàn)的罪犯有多少時(shí)，我們還是會(huì)感到很不安，那些被抓住的計(jì)算機(jī)罪犯只是意外霉運(yùn)的犧牲者罷了。
　　例如，某個(gè)打孔操作員抱怨不得不加班為額外的卡片打孔。調(diào)查表明，那些額外的卡片是用作非法交易的。另一種情形，實(shí)施計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪的心懷不滿的雇工警告雇主他們的公司將被搶劫。
　　不同于其他(那些必須離開國(guó)家，自殺或進(jìn)監(jiān)獄的)違法者，計(jì)算機(jī)罪犯有時(shí)可以逃脫懲罰，不僅要求不被控訴而且還索取推薦或其他好處，而他們的要求通常都會(huì)得到滿足。
　　為什么會(huì)這樣呢?因?yàn)楣拘姓藛T害怕公眾發(fā)現(xiàn)他們的計(jì)算機(jī)被誤用從而對(duì)兩公司造成很壞的公眾影響。他們想到，計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪者可能會(huì)在法庭鼓吹他們是如何在公司行政人員、會(huì)計(jì)、以及安全保衛(wèi)人員的鼻子底下篡改公司機(jī)密記錄的。鑒于這種想法，他們(公司高層)猶豫了。因此，另一個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)罪犯帶著他需要的推薦信離開了，繼續(xù)他的罪惡職業(yè)。
