10、mail and social media accounts with every girlfriend hes ever had. Its a matter of convenienceshe can check his e-mail when he cant access it or get into his phone to change the song playing on the speakers. But its also symbolic.B) “I feel like its so much easier to live in a relationship where you

11、 know you have nothing to hide and are entirely honest about who you are and what youre doing,” he says. “Times in my life when Ive realized that something wasnt working in my relationship coincided with(与同时发生) times when I would be worried, Oh, do I really want to say this on Face-book to somebody

13、hip beyond privacy.” Breuer has most American couples on his side. According to a recent Pew study, 67% of Internet users in marriages or relationships have shared passwords to one or more of their accounts with their partner.C) Though we dont feel comfortable exchanging passwords with perhaps more

14、trustworthy family members and long-term friends, we do feel comfortable exchanging access to our personal information with boyfriends and girlfriends. Its an exercise in trust, the logic goes. If you have nothing to hide, why would you want to hide your password? And, as Breuer points out, knowing

15、someone may look over your shoulder can keep you honest.D) For Jasmine Tobie, seeing someone elses transgressions (越轨)via e-mail has saved her from a toxic relationship. After finding some receipts that proved her boyfriend was lying to her about being on a business trip one weekend, she decided to

16、look at his e-mail to be sure before she pulled the plug on the relationship. “Once I found that I just had to have more evidence.” She didnt know his password, but was able to guess correctly using clues on his desktop. “He was still communicating with his exes. He had taken a trip to visit an ex a

17、nd told me it was a work trip. He was still signed up with dating sites and other hookup sites and actively communicating with those people I found some pictures of him and people he swore were friends in the act.” The two had dated for a year and lived together for about nine months. “:I was trying

18、 to find some way to give him the benefit of the doubt. In the end, it did clarify for me that he was not it for me at all and that there were issues I couldnt fix.” Tobie adds that those were extraordinary circumstances, and she wouldnt read someone elses e-mails again. She doesnt share passwords w

19、ith her current boyfriend.E) In most circumstances, psychologists suggest keeping passwords private. “In relationships, we depend on each other for a lot of things, but its good and healthy to have some independence too,” says Kelly Campbell, PhD of Psychology. “The more you self-disclose, the happi

20、er you are. But the happiest couples have some degree of secrecy and privacy.” Unsurprisingly, sharing passwords can cause some serious problems during a relationship or after it ends.F) Rosalind Wiseman, author of Queen Bees and Vannabes, advises the teens she talks to for her research to not share

21、 passwords because “the relationships can change so quickly, and the emotions behind the breakups can be so strong.” She says that one high scholar she worked with was blind-sided when his ex-girlfriend found his phone. “She knew where he charged his phone during class and knew his password, so she

22、went in and sent all sorts of texts to friends, to another girl he was talking toit really created a lot of problems for him.”G) Though one might assume that teens and 20-somethings are the ones foolishly sharing passwordsand suffering from the resulting dramathe survey found that the practice of pa

23、ssword-sharing is pretty equal across age groups, and that 18-29-year-olds were actually the least likely to share passwords. 64% of 18-29-year-olds share passwords, compared with 70% of 30-49-year-olds, 66% of 50-64-year-olds, and 69% of those over 65.H) And you dont have to be a teenager to have p

24、assword problems with your significant other. Suzy, a 46-year-old mother, got into a dangerous situation years ago when her then-boyfriend started reading her e-mails. She hadnt given him her password, but one day she forgot to log out and he checked her e-mail. The couple had been on-again-off-agai

25、n, and she hadnt told him that she had created an online dating profile while they were apart. She had since deleted the profile and deleted most of the e-mail exchanges with the man she met through the site. “But he went through all my e-mails, including ones that I had thrown away. He went into ev

26、ery folder. He got really mad and basically attacked me,” she says. “I ended up having to call an ambulance.”I) Since, she says shes never even considered sharing passwords with a significant other. “I now have this paranoia(偏执) where I wouldnt even share it even if I trusted someone. You never know

27、 whats going to upset someone,” she says. “I dont know if that makes me less trusting or just wiser.”J) Still, optimists like Breuer are undeterred (未受阻的)by such horror stories. Breure says he has always developed friendship with the girls he has dated before dating, and therefore felt they could be

28、 honest with one another. “I think sharing passwords honestly ends up affording you the privacy you want,” Breure says, pointing to a password etiquette that has developed between him and his partners in recent years. “Just because you tell somebody your password to things doesnt mean they actually

29、end up looking through your stuff.” Breuer says hes never changed his password after a breakup since hes always trusted and respected those he has dated.K) Campbell says the best way to determine if youre ready to share passwords with your significant other is to check and see if youre on the same p

30、age. “If you have any question in your mind, the answer is no,” says Campbell. “I would say that it should be reciprocal. You shouldnt be sharing something if your partner also didnt share itPeople are happiest when they have a match. You and your partner should be a match in that respect too.”11. W

31、e feel at ease sharing passwords with our partner, but not with our family members.12. Although couples are happier when they share more, the happiest couples dont share everything.13. Jasmine Tobie ended an unhealthy relationship after she found evidence of her boyfriends cheating.14. A middle-aged

32、 mother was ever beaten by her then-boyfriend years ago after he read her e-mails.15. Teenagers are advised to keep their passwords private because the relationships are unstable and they may not have a good control over their emotions after breakups.16. Most American couples think that if there is

33、something they dont want their partner to see on their social media, their relationship probably isnt working.17. Campbell holds that before you are determined to share your passwords, youd better make sure that you partner is ready too.18. According to a survey, 30-49-year-olds are the most likely

34、to share passwords.19. Breuer shares his passwords with his girlfriends partly for conveniences sake.20. Some optimists believe that sharing passwords can eventually give them the privacy they want.11-15 CEDHF 16-20 BKGAJSection CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is foll

36、, she had come to Sigmund Freud suffering from coughing and speechlessness. Shes become depressed, even hinting at suicide.

37、ssed desire, Freud concluded, “No mortal can keep a secret. If his lips are silent, he chatters with his finger-tips; betrayal oozes out of him at every pore.”Sometimes a handbag is just a handbag, but modern research does support the idea that secrecy can be a source of mental and physical distress

38、. Keeping a secret requires constant effort. In one recent study, subjects asked to conceal their sexual orientation performed worse on a spatial ability task, reacted more rudely to criticism, and gave up sooner in a test of handgrip endurance. And the bigger the secret, the harder it is to keep. A

When researchers requested help moving books from their lab, the subjects harboring meaningful secrets lifted fewer stacks.All of

40、 the mental exertion might actually wear a body down: researcher shows an association between keeping an emotionally charged secret and ailments ranging from the common cold to chronic disease. Other evidence in favor of disclosure included multiple studies showing that writing about a traumatic(令人痛

41、苦的) experience can boost the immune system, and the finding that teens who confide in a parent or close friend report fewer physical complaints and less delinquent behavior, loneliness, and depression than those who sit on their secrets.One reason secret keeping is such hard work is that secrets, li

42、ke unwanted thoughts, tend to take up more brain space the more one tries not to think about them. But not everyone is equally prone to this self-defeating cycle. Researchers have identified a small class of “repressors,” who experience fewer intrusive(妨碍的) thoughts about sensitive information they

48、TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.People tend to have one of three beliefs about the meaning of work and which category you fall into largely depends on your parents, according to new research from the University of Michigan. Workers who are job-oriented are those just trying

49、to make a living who much prefer the activities they pursue outside of the office. Career-oriented adults-your typical “workaholic” - value the social status and prestige(声望) that comes with professional achievement, and derive much of their identity from their jobs.
