the new technology offers it unlimited opportunities, such as data crimes, theft of services, property-related crimes, industrial sabotage, politically related sabotage, vandalism, crimes against the individual and financially related crimes theft of data, or data crime, has attracted the interest of organized criminal syndicates. this is usually the theft or copying of valuable computer grogram. an international market already exists for computerized data, and specialized fences are said to be playing a key role in this rapidly expanding criminal market. buyers for stolen programs may range from a firms competitors to foreign nations. a competitor sabotages a companys computer system to destroy or cripple the firms operational ability, thus neutralizing its competitive capability either in the private or the government sector. this computer sabotage may also be tied to an attempt by affluent investors to acquire the victim firm. with the growing reliance by firms on computers for their recordkeeping and daily operations, sabotage of their computers can result in internal havoc, after which the group interested in acquiring the firm can easily buy it at a substantially lower price. criminal groups could also resort to sabotage if the company is a competitor of a business owned or controlled by organized crime. politically motivated sabotage is on the increase; political extremist groups have sprouted on every continent. sophisticated computer technology arms these groups with awesome powers and opens technologically advanced nations to their attack. several attempts have already been made to destroy computer facility at an air force base. a university computer facility involved in national defence work suffered more than $2 million in damages as a result of a bombing. computer vulnerability has been amply documented. one congressional study concluded that neither government nor private computer systems are adequately protected against sabotage. organized criminal syndicates have shown their willingness to work with politically motivated groups. investigators have uncovered evidence of cooperation between criminal groups and foreign governments in narcotics. criminal groups have taken attempts in assassinating political leaders. computers are used in hospital life-support system, in laboratories, and in major surgery. criminals could easily turn these computers into tools of devastation. by sabotaging the computer of a life-support system, criminals could kill an individual as easily as they had used a gun. by manipulating a computer, they could guide awesome tools of terror against large urban centers. cities and nations could become hostages. homicide could take a now form. the computer may become the hit man of the twentieth century. the computer opens vast areas of crime to organized criminal groups, both national and international. it calls on them to pool their resources and increase their cooperative efforts, because many of these crimes are too complex for one group to handle, especially those requiting a vast network of fences. although criminals have adapted to computer technology, law enforcement has not. many still think in terms of traditional criminology.1. how many kinds of crimes are mentioned in the passage?a. 7. . 8. c. 9. d. 102. what is the purpose of a competitor to sabotage a companys computer?a. his purpose is to destroy or weaken the firms operational ability. his purpose is to weaken firms competitive capability and get it.c. his purpose is to buy the rivals company at a relatively low price.d. his purpose is to steal important data.3. which of the following can be labeled as a politically motivated sabotage of a computer system?a. sabotage of a university computer. sabotage of a hospital computer.c. sabotage of computer at a secret training base.d. sabotage of a factory computer.4. what does the author mean by “homicide could take a new form”?a. there is no need to use a gun in killing a person. criminals can kill whoever they want by a computer.c. the computer can replace any weapons.d. the function of a computer is just like a gun.vocabulary1. bizarre 奇怪的2. vandalism 破坏，故意破坏文化，艺术的行为3. cripple 使瘫痪，削弱4. fence 贼市，脏品买卖处5. neutralize 使成为无效6. affluent 富裕的7. recordkeeping 记录存贮8. havoc 浩劫，大破坏9. resort to 求助于，借助于10. motivate 作为的动机，激发11. extremist 过激分子，极端主义分子12. sprout 萌发迅速发展13. awesome 令人惊惧的，引起敬畏的14. vulnerability 易受攻击，脆弱15. devastation 劫持，破坏16. hospital life-support system 医院的生命维持系统17. hit man 职业凶手（杀手）18. pool 集中（资金）合办，入股19. criminology 犯罪学，刑事学难句译注1. organized crime to has been directly involved;
