Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One: Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: The U.S. military has blocked public access to nearly all its Web sites after its servers were attacked by a new computer virus. Late last week, the U.S. Space Command, which provides security for military computers, instructed all military organizations to block public access after a number of sites had contracted the virus, called the "Code Red" bug, according to an official. The virus is known as a "denial of service" bug, because it replicates (自我复 制) itself by reading the log files on a network server and sending copies to other servers — thereby multiplying and sometimes crashing a system — and denying access to legitimate (合法的) users of the site. "The Code Red worm did in fact show up in some DoD [Department of Defense] Web sites and we're working to contain that," command spokesman Army Maj. Barry Venable said. "Ways we're going about that include blocking public access to the Web sites, because that's the way this worm works, to prevent it from using our networks to propagate (繁殖) itself." The virus exploits a security flaw (缺陷) in certain Microsoft network servers. The flaw was announced last month when a patch was released to fix it. "To protect our DoD Web sites from being compromised, DoD organizations have been told to review the status of the Internet information servers… to make sure that all the patches that were previously installed had been installed," says Venable. Only a handful of the major Defense Department sites, with the suffix ".mil", appear currently accessible to the public, including the central public affairs site DefenseLink and the military services' main homepages. Public access is blocked to information connected to those sites, and others such as the National Missile Defense site and the U.S. Air Forces in Europe site. Authorized Department of Defense personnel continue to have access to the sites, Venable said. (323 words) 21 Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?
