European cities are known as popular tourist places. Every year, thousands of people go to cities like Venice and Amsterdam to learn about their history, experience their culture and just have fun. But some of the cities have been taking action to reduce (减少) the number of visitors.
Venice is known for its beautiful landmarks, such as St Mark’s Square. But people there say that the large ships that sail near the city center are ruining (破坏) their appearance, according to The Telegraph.
Residents have complained that the “ugly” ships are much bigger than the local buildings. They make the area look strange, as well as damage the canals (运河). In response, the Italian government stopped cruise ships from sailing past St Mark’s Square last year.
In Amsterdam, the Netherlands’ capital, noisy tourists are unwelcome. The city has worked out plans to limit the number of tourists who can come to the city, the Daily Mail reported. Many residents believe that increased tourism has brought more rubbish to the city’s streets. It has also caused an increase in noise pollution.
Airbnb and other “home rentals” that are popular with tourists will face restrictions (限制), too.

When he was a little boy, his uncle called him “Sparky” after a comic-strip (连环画) horse named Spark Plug. School was all but impossible for Sparky.
He failed every subject in the eighth grade. And though he did manage to make the school’s golf team, he lost the only important match of the season straight away.
Throughout his youth, Sparky was awkward socially. It wasn’t that the other students disliked him. It was just that no one really cared all that much. In fact, Sparky was surprised if a classmate ever said hello to him outside of school hours. Sparky was a loser. Him, his classmates… everyone knew it. So he learned to live with it. He made up his mind that if things were meant to work out, they would.
One thing was important to Sparky, however-drawing. He was proud of his artwork. No one else enjoyed it. But that didn’t seem to matter to him. In his senior year of high school, he sent some cartoons to the yearbook. The editors refused to consider his ideas. Despite (即使;尽管) that, Sparky was sure about his ability. He even decided to become an artist.
So, after finishing high school, Sparky wrote to Walt Disney Studios. They asked for samples (样本) of his artwork. Despite careful preparation, it too was refused. One more confirmation that he was a loser.
But Sparky still didn’t give up. Instead, he decided to tell his own life’s story in cartoons. The main character would be a little boy who symbolized the boy who always lost. You know him well. Because Sparky’s cartoon character went on to become a kind of cultural phenomenon (现象). People readily identified with this “lovable loser”. He reminded people of the painful and embarrassing moments from their own past, of their pain and their shared humanity.
The character soon became famous worldwide: “Charlie Brown”. And Sparky, the boy whose many failures never kept him from trying, whose work was refused again and again, is the highly successful cartoonist Charles Schultz. His cartoon strip Peanuts continues to inspire books, T-shirts and Christmas specials, reminding us, as someone, that life somehow finds a way for all of us, even the losers.
1.The underlined part “he learned to live with it” in Paragraph 3 probably means that Sparky _______.
A. decided not to make an effort in school
B. learned to say no to being treated badly
C. didn’t care because no one called him a loser
D. came to accept not being cared about by other students
2.Before he started the Charlie Brown cartoon, _________.
A. Sparky doubted whether being an artist was in his future.
B. some yearbook editors encouraged Sparky to keep on drawing
C. no one valued Sparky’s artwork and it was refused again and again
D. samples of Sparky’s artwork were accepted by Walt Disney Studios
3.Why did Sparky’s cartoon character become so popular?
A. Because Sparky’s experience was so sad.
B. Because people felt they could have to do with it.
C. Because it was a kind of cultural phenomenon.
D. Because it inspired people to fight for their own lives.
4.What can we conclude (推断) from the article?
A. Sparky never lost confidence in his ability.
B. Artists often have little chance of becoming successful.
C. The writer believes that others’ opinions don’t matter.
D. The writer believes that no loser will become successful in the end.
One of the problems with passwords is that users forget them. In order to remember them, people use simple things like their dog’s name, their birth date, or the name of the current month-anything that will give them a clue to remember what their password is.
For the curious hacker (黑客) who has gained access to your online account, this is the same as locking your door and leaving the key under the doormat (门垫).
To create a safe password that is easy to remember, follow these simple steps:
● You should never use personal information as part of your password. It is very easy for someone to guess things like your last name, pet’s name, child’s birth date and other similar details.
● There are tools available to help attackers guess your password. With today’s computing power, it doesn’t take long to try every word in the dictionary and find your password, so it is best if you do not use real words for your password.
● You can make a password much safer by mixing different types of characters. Use some uppercase letters (大写字母) along with lowercase letters (小写字母), numbers and even special characters such as “&” or “%”.
● Rather than trying to remember a password that is created using various character types and is not a word from the dictionary, you can use a “passphrase”. Think of a sentence or a line from a song or poem that you like and create a password using the first letter from each word.
For example, rather than just having a password like “yr $ 1 Hes”, you could take a sentence such as “I like to read the About. Com Internet network security website” and convert it to a password like “il2rtA! nsws” by using the number “2” for the word “to” and using an exclamation point (感叹号) in place of the “I” for “Internet”. You can use a variety of character types and create a safe password that is hard to figure out, but much easier for you to remember.
● You should use a different username and password for each login you’re trying to protect. That way, if someone figures out one of your passwords, the others are still safe. Another approach, which is less safe, but provides a fair balance between security and convenience, is to use one username and password for sites and applications that don’t need the extra security, but use unique usernames and more safe passwords on sites that require more security, such as your bank’s website.
1.How is a password made up of one’s dog’s name or birthdate?
A. It is safe and easy to remember.
B. It can get hacked easily by attackers.
C. It suits those who have a poor memory.
D. It is the most commonly used type of password.
2.According to the article, what is a passphrase made up of?
A. Different character types.
B. A long dictionary word.
C. The title of a song or a poem.
D. The first letter from each word of a sentence.
3.Which of these passwords might be the safest according to the article?
A. jessica208.B. yr $ 1 Hes.
C. HERO&37.D. il2rtA!nsws.
4.What’s the article mainly about?
A. How to make your passwords safer.
B. How hackers get access to computers.
C. How to protect your private information online.
D. Typical problems with passwords.
