Like many Americans,after September 11 I felt a bit safer buying Christmas presents over the Internet rather than making a long journey to crowded shops.
像很多美國人在911事件以后一樣,我感覺通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)購買圣誕禮物,比走遠(yuǎn)路到擁擠的商店買更安全一些.
2.After buying several things at e-commerce sites and registering at the auction site eBay,I picked up the local paper and saw a page one headline that read:"Identity thefts hit residents in region."
在電子商務(wù)網(wǎng)站進(jìn)行了幾次購物并在eBay拍賣網(wǎng)站進(jìn)行注冊后,我看到當(dāng)?shù)貓蠹堃豁摰念^條新聞是“身份盜賊對當(dāng)?shù)鼐用襁M(jìn)行了盜竊”
3.My ISP,of course,denied that a problem existed on its end.
我的網(wǎng)絡(luò)提供商,當(dāng)然否認(rèn)其終端存在問題.
4.Amazingly,the ISP still responded that it was highly unlikely that security had been breached,since no credit card data was in danger.
令人驚奇的是,網(wǎng)絡(luò)提供商仍然回應(yīng)說鑒于沒有信用卡數(shù)據(jù)處于不安全狀態(tài),其安全措施被破解的可能非常小.

5.In more than 20 years of using charge cards at restaurants and department stores,not once has my credit card number been stolen -- never mind used as a lever to unlock other financial accounts.
我在飯店和商店使用借貸卡超過20年,沒有一次被盜,不要擔(dān)心將其作為其他金融賬戶的解鎖杠桿.

6.He didn't believe that I had never used a computer until I explained that not many people used computers in Japan at the time,and many things were still handwritten.
他不相信我從沒用過電腦,直到我解釋說當(dāng)時使用電腦的日本人并不多,很多事情都靠手寫.
7.Although the residents of my block were all very aware that one of our Australian roommates was a student who was pursuing a computer major and who seemed to know absolutely everything about computers
盡管我所在街區(qū)的居民都很清楚我們的一個室友是主修計算機(jī)的學(xué)生,而且他看起來知道計算機(jī)的一切.
8.Confused by the sudden request,I replied,“Why are you asking me?”
我被學(xué)生的要求迷惑了,我回應(yīng)：“為什么問我?”

9.Solidarity and familiarity,values central to Vietnamese society,contrast strongly with Australian attitudes to privacy.
團(tuán)結(jié)與熟悉是越南社會的核心價值,與澳大利亞對待隱私的態(tài)度截然相反.
