In simpler times, we never had t cnsider a lved ne's privacy when gift-buying. But as technlgy has cntinued its high-speed advance and grwth at all csts, many cmpanies and the prducts they create have lng been skirting(回避) adequate data and privacy prtectin, leaving users at risk. Fr example, the audibk reader yu give t yur children t send them t sleep at night nw captures (捕捉) data n what they like.
As we cntinue t integrate (整合) the Internet int mre f ur devices and cver ur hmes and lives with cameras, micrphnes and trackers, the lack f data prtectin and privacy is becming dangerus. Very few cmpanies are being hnest abut hw they cllect, stre and use data, and the nly lser is the very individuals wh use these prducts.
But that, right there, is the ne chance cnsumers have t turn the tide.
The change starts with us. Buying a small device isn't simply buying a prduct anymre; it's a cnscius decisin abut whether yu trust the cmpany behind it t wrk in yur best interests and keep yu safe. It's yur respnsibility as a cnsumer t be aware f this chice and act n it. In an ideal future, it wn't require hurs f research- -whether dne by the buyer r by rganizatins- -t buy safe, respnsible prducts. But fr nw, it's the best ptin available as these cmpanies cntinue t get a free pass.
We can demand mre. We must demand mre. We can demand that privacy and security be taken seriusly by the cmpanies wh build the prducts we buy. Yes, technlgy has vastly imprved ur lives, but that shuldn't cme at the cst f ur safety. S if yu want give smene a gift, give them the gift f privacy. It's the nly way t make the Internet -and ur lives-a little safer in this digital wrld.
28. What des the first paragraph mainly talk abut?
A. The risk f peple's privacy leaks frm gifts.
B. The way cmpanies cllect users privacy data.
C.The cmpany's effrts t prtect users privacy.
D.The reasns fr the rapid grwth f technlgy.
29. Why is the lack f privacy prtectin becming mre and mre dangerus?
A. Because digital prducts are becming mre and mre ppular.
B. Because the Internet is being mre widely used in peple's daily life.
C. Because few users have the awareness t prtect their privacy rights.
D. Because mst cmpanies hide the way they handle users' persnal data.
30. What des the underlined phrase get a free pass" in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Escape frm pressure. B. D as they wish.
C. Misuse their prducts freely. D. Mislead their users.
31.What is the main purpse f the passage?
A. T intrduce the latest develpment f the Internet.

D. T explain the reasns why cmpanies abuse users' private data.

Smetimes the peple least likely t engage with Twitter, Facebk, Instagram, r Zm are the peple wh can benefit frm it the mst.
The "silent generatin", r thse brn between 1928 and 1945, aren't usually mentined alngside the likes f Twitter, Facebk, and Instagram. A study this year said that 45 percent f peple ver 65 use scial media sites. Yet, fr the majrity f senirs, it is mre abut gathering infrmatin than sharing things abut themselves.

He has figured ut hw t make Facebk and Instagram wrk fr him by asking his yunger friends fr help when he gets stuck.
Jesse Epstein, wh has been teaching in a cllege fr 44 years.He mved t Csta Rica with his wife and yung child fur years ag when he was 70. "I wuldn't be able t live the life I nw lead withut the assistance f Zm, Ggle Classrm, WhatsApp, and Micrsft Teams," Epstein tells me n the phne, speaking frm his hme in Tamarind. "My current students are all masters-level schlteachers. I use Zm t bserve and evaluate hw well they incrprate（融入） these technlgies int their lessns live in the classrm. I was surprised by hw much mre attentive students seemed t be nline than they typically were in the classrm receiving the same material."
He keeps in tuch in a very real way with friends he's knwn fr decades. "Netwrking technlgies have supprted all my life chices and helped me and my family achieve a level f freedm and independence which I didn't think was pssible fr smene in their mid-seventies," he adds.

C. T reflect the ppularity f Facebk.
D. T shw the real scial cnnectin.
34. Which is nt the benefit f netwrking technlgies accrding t Jesse Epstein?
A Students are mre likely t cncentrate n the class.
B. All his life chices are backed by nline technlgies.
C. He can imprve his teaching skills and methds.
D. His family members have freedm and independence.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Scial Media Gives the Silent Generatin a Vice
B. Scial Apps Are Welcmed by Peple f All Ages
C. Netwrking Technlgies Are a Duble-edged Swrd
