Task 6
Read the texts below. Match choices () to (). There are two choices you do not need to use.
Malware is a type of a computer code that includes viruses, worms, and Trojans horses that are potential threats to computer systems today. Let's look at some of them.
This malware __________.
Worms are designed to replicate themselves quickly to spread to other computers often through a computer network. Most worms are only designed to spread as quickly as posible, so they do not usually try to change the computer systems they pass through. However, worms can create a threat to the security, deleting files or even sending files via email. This is a common method for spam senders to spread junk email quickly, as the more computers are infected, the faster the spam mail will spread.
gets facts about a computer user without informing him/her
Trojan Horses, or Trojans for short, are different from warms because they don't replicate themselves. Rather, Trojans are designed to trick you into downloading them to cause data loss and sometimes total-system harm. Just as in the ancient Greek story of the wooden horse that was to deceive the soldiers of Troy, Trojans present themselves as useful, interesting or routine programes to trick you into installing them on your computer.
is usually hidden deep inside your computer
Spyware is designed to gather information about you knowledge. This information can be send to another party without your consent, and it can even be used to take control over a computer. Spyware is capable of collecting any type of data, including your Internet history and banking information. Some forms of Spyware can even install additional software or change your Internet settings, which can be a mere annoyance, or a problem that can take days to fix.
functions with the user's informed permission
Ransomware infects your computer with the aim to restrict access to your computer system, perhaps preventing you from surfing the Internet or accessing the hard drive, and then demanding a payment to the malware creators. Some of the trickiest ransomware designers have acquired millions of dollars from unsuspecting users.
can easily copy itself
Rootkits are secret types of malware that tries to gain administrator access on your computer and then hide itself so you don't know it is in your system. This type of malware is generally difficult to detect and remove.
Malware is not limited to these five examples, fortunately, antivirus software is designed to combat these threats by preventing the programs from entering your system.
id usually hidden within another program
Bots are type of software designed so as to automatically do certain tasks. Although some bots are created for relatively harmless purposes, bots can be also used for placing advertisements on websites, DDoS attacks, or malware distributing.
runs automated tasks
refers to an ancient myth
limits your opportunity to us your computer

Having said their goodbyes at the departure gate, passengers on a recent KLM flight were amazed to board the plane and find that on their headrests there were messages from their loved ones.

"She loves that", the grandpa explained. there were lots of others saying "I'll miss you" with pictures of hearts, good luck wishes [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H].

For example, thanks to the airline's previous service initiative friends and families of passengers send gifts and personal notes which the crew surprise them during the flight.
In fact, KLM's experience shows that even though we live in an age of the Internet, tablets and smartphones, there will always be something touching about a sincere, handwritten message.

B and helping them to feel less sad about leaving loved ones behind
C as well as a physical one
D on the headrest of the seat of a friend or a family member
