that they developed.They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them.Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them；often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.Of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes.Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems.New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries；however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers.In the US., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems.It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow.Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell.A third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers.Of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results.Our work places are safer and cleaner than before.The planes and cars which we use for travel are better.Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy

places专题限时训练(三十)(一)1.D推理判断题。第二段说道，有谁会不经过你的许可就会注视着你呢？可能是朋友、上市公司、老板、警察或者是罪犯。无论他是谁，他们都会以你从来没有意想到的方式看着你。而注视你的人自然能获取你的个人信息，故可推断，人们的个人信息很容易在他们不知晓的情况下被他人获取。故选D。2A根据第三段“Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, though its important to reveal(透露)yourself to friends，family and lovers in stages，at appropriate times.”可知，尽管在适当的时候向朋友、家人或爱人坦诚自己是重要的，但分界线是重要的，即：人与人之间还应该有适当的距离。由此判断选A。其他选项不符合文意。3C推理判断题。根据第三段可知，作者认为，与朋友之间应该有适当的距离，但实际上这种距离很少存在，因此，到处留下的电子面包屑(即电子痕迹)使陌生人窃取你的个人资料。所以作者说，不管你喜欢或不喜欢，我们生活在一个不能保密的世界里，故选C。4B细节理解题。根据“When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it.A survey found a majority of people are pessimistic about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they

their privacy.”可知，他们对私人空间做得少。故选B。5D细节理解题。根据最后一段“But privacy does matterat least sometimes.Its like health：when you have it，you dont notice it.Only when
