Some of his wheat was lying on the ground. The flattened wheat formed(形成)a circle about six meters across . Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat.Three years later a farmer who lived nearby discovered almost the same circles in one of his fields. These circles were largernearly 15 meters across . That same year , another English farmer discovered three circles of flattened wheat on his landone large circle between two small circles. During the following years, farmers in England found circles in their fields more and more often.The circles are called “crop circles” because they usually appear in fields of wheat or corn. The wheat in the circles lies on the ground but is never broken; it keeps on growing, and the farmers can later harvest it. Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning, so the circles probably form at night. They appear only in the months from May to September. What causes the crop circles?At first, people thought that some kids were making them as a joke, or that farmers were making them to attract tourists.(In fact, in 1991, two men said they made the circles themselves, but many scientists dont believe them.) People tried to copy them: They tried to make circles exactly like the ones the farmers had found. They couldnt do it. They couldnt enter a field of wheat without leaving tracks, and they couldnt flatten the wheat without breaking it.Several times people reported seeing stranger objects near the fields where crop circles later appeared. Many people believe that these crop circles are the messages sent by living things from outer space(外层空间)or the marks left by their spaceships.Scientists who have studied the crop circles try to find out what causes them. In the summer of 1990 some scientists spent three weeks in the part of England where many circles have appeared. They had all the latest high-tech equipment(最新高科技设备). The equipmentworth 1.8 million dollarsgot nothing. But one night, as the scientists were watching a field, crop circles formed in the field behind them, which were quite different from the others. The scientists had neither seen nor heard anything.When Steven discovered the crop circles on his land in 1978, he said, “It was just like something that had landed in the field from the air and gone back up again. I dont know what to make of these things.”Crop circles have appeared in England, Japan, the United States and Russia. Experts from all over the world have studied them, and they say what Steven said: They dont know what to make of these things.（1）“Flattened wheat” means _. A . broken wheatB . lying wheatC . harvested wheatD . growing wheat（2）The passage is mainly about something _ .A . that is done by living things from outer spaceB . that cannot be solved but found all around the worldC . that cannot be made clear or understoodD . that is discovered and copied by the farmers18. （10分）阅读理解A businessman was once deep in debt（债务） and could see no way out.

If someone steals it, hell get chances to steal something else. We use passwords everywhere in our life. We are so used to passwords that we dont pay any attention to them until we lose or forget one.A study of 28，000 passwords recently stolen from a popular website showed that people often do the easy thing. It found that 16% took a first name as a password. Another 14% used the easiest keyboard combinations such as “12345678” or QWERTY. 5% of the stolen passwords were names of television shows or stars popular with young people. 3% of the passwords expressed feelings like “I dont care，” “Whatever，” “I love you，” or their opposite, “I hate you.”Robert Graham, who did the study, advises people to choose a password that is longer than eight characters with one capital letter and one symbol.Of course, safe passwords dont mean those hard to remember. Forgetting your password is sometimes a big headache for you. Maybe, the perfect password is easy for youand hard for others.（1）The underlined word “password” in Paragraph 1 means_A . 标志B . 护照C . 密码D . 口诀（2）About 40% passwords are easily stolen because the users are_A . busyB . lazyC . stupidD . careful（3）Which of the following passwords is considered the safest?A .
