Answerkeys
1.第一段"Nowastudysuggeststhatapopularsecondarysecuritymeasureprovideslittleadditionalprotection."似与问题文字很接近,但是原文中apopularsecondarysecuritymeasure是指特定的一个措施,而非泛指所有secondarysecuritymeasure。
原文没有其它secondarysecuritymeasure安全有效性的内容。
故应选择NG。
2.见第4、5段内容。
第四段"Buttheresearchershadsecretlywithdrawntheimages."即研究人员撤下了图形,第五段"Onlytwochosenottologon,citingsecurityconcerns.",有两个人因为安全考虑未进入。
3.T见第6段。
4.F见第11、14段。
5.F见第11段"BankofAmericawasamongthefirsttoadoptit",可见首批采用图形识别软件的银行并非BankofAmerica一家。
6.Afinancialinstitution见第二段。
7.(their)passwords见第三段。
8.lessconvenience见第十段。
9.identity见第八、十段。
10.SiliconValley见第十一段。
11.easytouse见第十二段。
12.sitemaintenancemessage见第十三段"Whenrespondentsloggedinduringthestudy,theysawasitemaintenancemessageonthescreenwheretheirimageandphrasesshouldhavebeenpictured."
13.4分别见第十段的"downloadnewsecuritysoftware"和"hardwaredevicesthatfeedthemPINcodes",第十五段的"asmallsoftwareprogram,calledacookie",以及本文提到的site-authenticationimages。
