More about Alzheimer's DiseaseScientists have developed skin tests that may be used in the future to identify people with Alzheimer's disease and may ultimately allow physicians to predict who is at risk of get-ting this neurological disorder.The only current means of diagnosing the disease in a living patient is a long and expen-sive series of tests that eliminate every other cause of dementia.“Since Aloes Alzheimer described the disease nearly a century ago,people have been trying to find a way to accurately diagnose it in its early stages,“said Patricia Grady,acting director of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke in Bethesda,Mary-land."This discovery,if confirmed,could prove a big step forward in our efforts to deal with and understand the disease.”Alzheimer's is the single greatest cause of mental deterioration in older people,affecting between 2.5 million and 4 million people in the United States alone. The devastating disorder gradually destroys memory and the ability to function,and eventually causes death. There is currently no known treatment for the disease.Researches discovered that the skin cells of Alzheimer's patients have defects that inter-fere with their ability to regulate the flow of potassium in and out of the cells.The fact that the cell defects are present in the skin suggests that Alzheimer's results from physiological changes throughout the body,and that dementia may be the first noticeable effect of these changes as the defects affect the cells in the brain,scientists said.The flow of potassium is especially critical in cells responsible for memory formation. The scientists also found two other defects that affect the cells'supply of calcium,another critical element.One test developed by researches calls for growing skin cells in a laboratory culture and then testing them with an electrical detector to determine if the microscopic tunnels that govemn the flow of potassium are open. Open potassium channels create a unique electrical signature.A spokesman for the Alzheimer's Association said that if the validity of the diagnostictest can be proven it would be an important development,but cautioned that other promisingtests for Alzheimer's have been disappointing.The passage indicates that Alzheimer's is a disease______.A: common to people,old and youngB: not costly to be curedC: easy to be handledD: not easy to be diagnosed

Passage Two
Generationsof Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is essentialto one′s life.Eating breakfast at the start of the day,we have been told,and told again,is as necessary asputting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people,the thought of food as the first thing in the morning is never a pleasure Sodespite all the efforts,they still take no breakfast.
Between 1977 and 1983,the latest year for which figures could beobtained,the number of people who didn′t have breakfast increased by 33%from8.8 million to 11.7 million--according to the Chicago-based Market ResearchCorporation of America.For those who dislike eating breakfast,however,thereis some good news.
Several studies in the last few years have shown that,for adults especially,there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast."Going without breakfast does not affect work,"said Arnold E.Bender,former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London,"nor does giving people breakfast improve work."Scientific evidence linkingbreakfast to better health or better work is surprisingly inadequate(不充分),and most of the recent work involves children,not adults."The literature,"says one researcher,Dr.Earnest Polite at theUniversity of Texas,"is poor."
Which of these is mentioned inthe second paragraph?A.The number of the people who skip breakfast has increased.
B.Many people fill their cars withgasoline in the?morning.
C.8.8 million people got involved in astudy on?eating habits.
D.A company carried out a research in1983.

资料：As more personal business is conducted through smartphone devices , more users are implementing security measures for their devices, according to a recent survey by Harris Poll and commissioned by the CTIA.
The survey was a part of the company’s ongoing efforts to boost user education on the pitfalls of mobile security and assess whether the CTIA’s initiatives are working.
It turns out that mobile users in the US have begun implementing many of the initiatives set forth and have increased both awareness of, and protection for, their mobile devices:
More smartphone users are protecting their devices with PINs and passwords than in previous years. In 2016, of smartphone users had some sort of PIN/password, up from 2015 and form 2012.
An increasing number of smartphone users have installed built-in remote lock-and-erase software. Of survey respondents, have this type of lock-and-erase software installed, up an astounding from 2015 and from 2012.
Smartphone users are increasingly aware of the importance of anti-virus software. of smartphone users have an anti-virus software installed, compared with only of smartphone owners in 2015, according to BI Intelligence.
The survey results indicate that users are becoming increasingly aware of the danger posed by the increasing reliance on mobile technology form not only malicious entities like hackers, but also government surveillance. Specifically, users are increasingly seeking for ways to guard themselves in light of a number of recent high-profile incidents involving phone security–like Apple's case against the FBI, for example.
Because of this, it will become increasingly common for app developers and device manufactures to build in security and end-to-end encryption. This can be seen in devices and apps such as WhatsApp and iPhones. Developers and device manufacturers that don't include this feature in their products could be faced with negative consumer attitudes.
In what way shows that people have increased awareness of and protection for their mobile devices?A.Smartphone users are increasingly aware of the importance of anti-virus software.
B.An increasing number of smartphone users have installed built-in remote lock-and-erase software.
C.More smartphone users are protecting their devices with PINs and passwords than in previous years.
D.All of above.
