              Enough “meaningless drivel”.That’s the message from a group of members of the UK government who have been examining how social media firms like LinkedIn gather and use social media data.

              The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee’s report,released last week,has blamed firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts and calls for an international standard or kitemark(认证标记)to identify sites that have clear terms and conditions.

              “The term and conditions statement that we all carelessly agree to is meaningless drivel to anyone,”says Andrew Miller,the chair of the committee.Instead,he says,firms should provide a plain﹣English version of their terms.The simplified version would be checked by a third party and awarded a kitemark if it is an accurate reflection of the original.

              It is not yet clear who would administer the scheme,but the UK government is looking at introducing it on a voluntary basis.“we need to think through how we make that work in practice,”says Miller.

              Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark?“I think if you went and did the survey,people would like to think they would,”says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of Southampton,UK,who studies open data.“We do know people worry a lot about the inappropriate use of their information.”But what would happen in practice is another matter,he says.

              Other organisations such as banks ask customers to sign long contracts they may not read or understand,but Miller believes social media requires special attention because it is so new.“We still don’t know how significant the long﹣term impact is going to be of unwise things that kids put on social media that come back and bite them in 20years’time,”he says.

              Shadbolt,who gave evidence to the committee,says the problem is that we don’t know how companies will use our data because their business models and uses of data are still evolving.Large collections of personal information have become valuable only recently,he says.

              The shock and anger when a social media firm does something with data that people don’t expect,even if users have apparently permission,show that the current situation isn’t working.If properly administered,a kitemark on terms and conditions could help people know what exactly they are signing up to.Although they would still have to actually read them.


              (1) What does the phrase “meaningless drivel” in paragraphs 1 and 3 refer to?  
              A. Legal contracts that social media firms make people sign up to.
              B. Warnings from the UK government against unsafe websites.
              C. Guidelines on how to use social media websites properly.
              D. Insignificant data collected by social media firms.
              (2) It can be inferred from the passage that Nigel Shadbolt doubts whether ______.
              A. social media firms would conduct a survey on the kitemark scheme
              B. people would pay as much attention to a kitemark as they think
              C. a kitemark scheme would be workable on a nationwide scale
              D. the kitemark would help companies develop their business models
              (3) Andrew Miller thinks social media needs more attention than banks mainly because _________.
              A. their users consist largely of kids under 20 years old
              B. the language in their contracts is usually harder to understand

              B. read the terms and conditions even if there is a kitemark
              C. take no further action if they can find a kitemark
              D. avoid providing too much personal information
              (5) Which of the following is the best title of the passage?  
              A. Say no to social media?
              B. New security rules in operation?

              Five Things Nobody Told Me about College
              As I type this,I am in my university dorm room.A year ago,when I was awaiting to hear the results of my college applications,I often went to websites for some type of insider look on what college would be like.However,there's only so much that prep books,websites,and older friends can teach.Here are the top 5things nobody told me about college:
              (61) ______
              Nobody entering a university knows exactly what they want to study.If they tell you otherwise,they're lying and will probably change what they want to purse within the first quarter of attendance.During my first quarter at University of California,Riverside (UCR),I thought that I wanted to study Political Science with its focus on International Affairs,so that's what I applied for.However,once I worked with statewide and local government,I realized that a better fit for me would be Public Policy,and now I am in the process of changing my area.
              (62) ______
              In college,there are so many good chances for you to meet your expectations.However,there is a very important difference between wanting to do something and applying for something.In order for you to take advantage of the conferences,research,internships(实习),and fellowships that your university offers,apply!Step into your academic advisor's office,introduce yourself,and begin making the valuable connections that are necessary to help during the rest of your college career.Great things happen when you step out of your comfort zone,and you would be surprised on how many chances exist if you just ask.
              (63) ______
              College is where you meet your birdesmaids,neighbors,and potential bosses.The relationships you develop now will probably be linked to the ones you value later,so he wise about the people who you invest yourself in.You are only one person,and you do not have time to waste on people who would rather cause drama or mess up with your purpose.Surround yourself with uplifting individuals who challenge you to be better while loving you for who you are,and be patient to the people who are the complete opposite of that description.
              (64) ______
              As a first-year,I was afraid to make any noise towards campus issues that I noticed.It was not until I became involved in student government that I gained the confidence to handle projects that I created with the help of ASUCR Office of the President.During my first quarter,I spoke directly to the Chancellor(校长),asking him for support towards my initiavives(提议),met with the Vive Chancellors,and coorerated with my teaching assistances to begin my undergraduate research protect.Nothing good will happen when you are silent.
              (65) ______
              At my high school,there were about only four active club and organizations that students could be a part of.Imagine my surprise when I stepped foot onto UCR's capus,where over 400organizations exist,ranging from political organizations to karate club.You are not paying all or your tuition(学费)to merely go to class,study,pass tests and graduate.Make something worthy out of your experience.Create that you will want to tell your grandchildren one day.It all begins here,by signing up to join an organization.
