                                                                     Stop Spam!
     When I first got an email account ten years ago, I received communications only from family, friends,
and colleagues.Now it seems that every time I check my email, I have an endless series of advertisements and other correspondence that do not interest me at all.If we want email to continue to be useful,we need
specific laws that make spamming(发送垃圾邮件) a crime.
   If lawmakers do not do something soon to prohibit spam, the problem will certainly get much worse.
Computer programs allow spammers to send hundreds of millions of emails  almost instantly.As more
and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual (个人的) email boxes are often
flooded with spam emails.Would people continue to use email if they had to deal with an annoying amount of spam each time?
   This problem is troubling for individuals and companies as well.Many spam emails contain computer
viruses that can shut down the entire network of a company.Companies rely on email for their employees
to communicate with each other.Spam frequently causes failures in their local communications networks,
and their employees are thus unable to communicate effectively.Such a situation results in a loss of
productivity and requires companies to repeatedly repair their networks.These computer problems raise
production costs of companies, which are, in the end, passed on to the consumer.
   For these reasons,I believe that lawmakers need to legislate(立法) against spam.Spammers should be
fined,and perhaps sent to prison if they continue to disturb people.Email is a tool which helps people all
over the world to communicate conveniently, but spam is destroying this convenience.

1. What does the underlined word"correspondence"in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. messages
B. ideas
C. connections
D. programs

2. According to the text, what is the major cause of the flooding spam?

A. Companies rely on email for communications.
B. More people in the world communicate by email.
C. Many computer viruses contain spam emails.
D. More advertisers begin to promote sales through spam.

3. According to Paragraph 3, who is the final victim of spam?

A. The business.
B. The advertiser.
C. The employee.
D. The consumer.

4. What is the purpose of the text?

A. To inform.
B. To educate.
C. To persuade.
D. To instruct.

     As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens (青少年) about the dangers
of drinking and driving.In her role as Miss Teen USA, Shelley will continue to speak to youth about safe
driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.
      When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don"t let anyone
change you.Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself.That way, it is easy to be
yourself."
