In many businesses, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, and don't make mistakes.And they are honest.Many banks say that their business is “untouched by human hands” and therefore safe from human temptation (誘惑).But they have no thought, and the growing number of computer crimes show that they can be used to steal.
Computer criminals (罪犯) don't use guns.And even if they are caught, it is hard to punish them because there is often no proof.A computer can't remember who used it: it simply does what it is told.The head teller (出納員) at a New York City bank used a computer to steal more than one and a half billion dollars in just four years.No one noticed this because he moved the money from one account (賬簿) to another.Each time a person he had robbed questioned the balance in his account, the teller said it was a computer mistake, then replaced the missing money from someone else's account.This man was caught only because he was a gambler (賭徒).
Some workers use the computer's power to punish their bosses they consider unfair.Recently, a large company fired its computer-record assistant for reasons that were connected with her personal life rather than her job.She was given thirty days' notice.In those thirty days, she erased out all the company's computerized records.
Most computer criminals have been common workers.Now police wonder if this is “the tip of the iceberg (冰山)”.As one official says, “I have the feeling that there is more crime out there than we are catching.What we are seeing now is all so poorly done.I wonder what the real experts are doing the ones who really know how a computer works.”

When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in the speech of a 13 character.
