I. Hacking is a crime made possible by a relatively new technology, which one of the reasons it is often poorly understood and reported. Many computers, but no means all,are now linked togetherin networks which allow users on one computer to communicate with others on the same network.If a computer is not networked,no manipulation of its data from another machine is possible.So long as users are authorised, networking is just a way of making work easier and more productive.Hacking on the other hand,is the unauthorised use of networks or unauthorised entty into the computers themselves.Most people do not need to break into the networks they use,since they are already accredited users.
33. Most hackers are authorised to break into networks F
34. Computers are only vulerable to the unauthorised manipulation of their data via another computer if they are networked T

J.Although invaders represent a threat to the conservation of flora and fauna,there are two special cases in which invasion have been deliberately brought about.One is the desire to control presents by natural predators, whichmay have to be brought in from other countries.The second is releasing organisms into the wild(or on to farms,from which they might escape)that are completely novel,beacause they have been genetically engineered.There is nothing intrinsically sinister about engineered organisms,but any novelty must be regarded as a potential invader.
37.Pest control does not threat the conservation of flora and fauna. T
38.Genetically engineered organisms must always be regarded as poten-tially dangerous. F
39.Natural predators are work harmful than pests. T
40.Genetically engineered organisms escaped from the farm,they will pose a threat to wildlife. T
K.electronics technology is coming to the rescue of helicopters which can be grounded or crash in icy conditions the machines are especially vulnerable to the build up of ice on both their rotors and engine air intake when operating in cold damp conditions.the problem is 2 fold ice increases the weight and the build upp makes the aerofoils less efficient .now at last a detector has been devised which the company hopes will mean safer flightsand less frequent grounding.unlike most
devices in use at present it can detect the liquid water content of cloud above freezing level.so the warning is ginven before the potential hazard is encountered.
39.an electronic device has been invented which will prevent the build up of ice on helicopter rotors F
40.helicopters are sometimes grounded because in cold damp weather their engine air intakes and rotors malfuntionowing to the formatrion of ice. T
41.only one device can at present detect the liquid water content of cloud above freezing level C
42.in future fewer helicopters will crash or have to grounded T
L.anyone whos has systematically examined faces will have perceived a prepondreance although not a proliferation of asymmtry.whether or not the expression is volitinal and self controlled or spontaneous appears to predict facial asymmetry as does the type of emotion protrayed.positive emotions are usually displayed symmetrically although a left sided representation of a negative emotion is more common.posed expressions and negative emotions are less likely to be symmetrically represented.
43.an angry person is more likely to have a lopsided expression than someone who is smiling T

47.sleep can be a creative state. T
48.it is difficult to tell whether a sleeper is dr3eaming or not C
49. if we knew what babies dream about before they are born we could
show that conscious and unconscious mond influence one another F
