More and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his purpose can get in substantial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.
It’s easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a growing recommendation from his former employers.
Of course, we have no statistics on crime that go undetected. But it is disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspection or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may be the victims of uncommonly bad luck.
For example, a certain keypunch (打孔机) operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards she was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off the company that was being robbed.
Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations or perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.
Why? Bemuse company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he secretly manipulate the most confidential records right under the noses of the company’s executives, accountants and security staff. And so another computer criminal depart with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.
选项
A、most computer criminals who are caught blame their had luck
B、the number of computer crimes is increased rapidly
C、most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimes
D、many more computer crimes go undetected than are discovered
答案
D
解析
本题问“从第三段我们可以得出怎样的推断?”文章第三段指出,But it is disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident,not by systematic inspection or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may be the victims of uncommonly bad luck. 也就是说,究竟多少犯罪未被发现,我们无从知道。我们目前只是偶然发现,并没有通过系统的检查或采取其他防范措施。言外之意,我们的防范措施太差了,所查出的犯罪只是冰山一角。故[D]“未发现的计算机犯罪远比发现的要多得多”正确。[A]“许多被发现的计算机犯罪者将其落网归罪于运气不佳”。文中第三段最后说被查出的计算机犯罪者也许只是些运气特别不好的人,并不是罪犯自己认为运气不好。[B]“计算机犯罪的数量迅速增多”。文中的意思是没有被发现的计算机犯罪数量很多而不是计算机犯罪增加的数量很多。本项属于偷换概念。[C]“大多数计算机犯罪者都很聪明,可以掩饰犯罪行为”。计算机犯罪者逍遥法外主要是因为查处不善,本文并未涉及其本身的原因。
