However, is this kind of public WiFi network safe?Some networks are better protected than others because encryption (加密）methods are used. Therefore, they are safer than others. But a survey in 2015 showed that more than 950 million records were not protected, including addresses, emails, birth dales, phone numbers, passwords and so on. These open WiFi networks are really not safe, because it is very easy for hackers (黑客） to break into the operating system and get people's private information.Most smartphones and laptops, by themselves, search and connect to WiFi networks. They usually prefer a network with a connection that has been used before. Hackers' devices are able to record these searches and look like the trusted WiFi networks. When these smartphones and laptops log on to the networks which are not real, hackers can easily steal their private information.So next time, when we want to use our laptops or our smartphones in public places which offer free WiFi networks，please think it twice or take safe measures before using them.42.

Ancient people also called it Shangyuan Festival. Celebrations and traditions on this day began from the Han Dynasty（朝代）and became popular in the Tang Dynasty.Watching the red lanterns is one of the main traditions. Lanterns of different shapes and sizes are usually put on trees, or along river banks on show. It is said that sky lanterns were first used by Zhuge Kongming to ask for help when he was in trouble. Today, when the lanterns slowly rise into the air, people make wishes.Another tradition is guessing lantern riddles. The riddles are usually short, wise, and sometimes humorous. The answer to a riddle can be a Chinese character（汉字），a famous persons name, or a place name. The most important thing is to eat sweet dumplings with different tastes. In northern China, they are called yuanxiao while in southern part theyre named tangyuan. Because making sweet dumplings is like a game or an activity, they are usually done happily by a group of friends or family members.In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic（浪漫的）.

A recent report shows that about 80 percent of diseases in developing countries are caused by poor water and low sanitation（卫生）conditions. In those countries, women and girls spend several hours collecting water, but often polluted, far away from their families. The polluted water more or less influences their health. In this case, there is an urgent（迫切的）need for people in developing countries to have access to（有机会或权利使用）clean water to improve their health. Here is a short story about Hadjara Zakari, a 12-year-old girl in Niger. Having access to clean water changed her life. She learned about the importance of hand-washing when the school first received clean water three years ago. That evening, she told her father, You shouldnt eat with me unless you clean your hands. Her father was very angry and shouted at her, “Its not up to you to tell me what to do!” Stunned（目瞪口呆的），Hadjara sat in silence. But she knew she was right. In protest, Hadjara refused to eat dinner that night. After her father questioned Hadjaras head teacher, he understood the importance of hand-washing and his daughters intentions（目的）. The girl really wanted her family to live longer and healthier lives. For people in developing countries, clean water can change many things, especially improve their health. So, from now on, lets avoid wasting water and take action to save water, which is important to people all over the world.51According to the recent report, poor water and low sanitation conditions can cause _.Atraffic problems Bforest fires Cmany illnesses52The key to improving peoples health in developing countries is _
