4. Passage 10 Your boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course， not all bosses are like that. The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder. Your boss is not only your leader， he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do. He can inform you of company direction that may affect your professional development. Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss? The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (优先的事). Observe and understand your boss‘s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations， ask! Likewise， ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understands that you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5， he may be more likely to help you. In short， getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and learning to work with his personality and management style.

3. Passage 20 Clifford Stoll ran a computer system in Berkelely， California. As a system administrator， he kept a close eye on the records. One day， Stoll found something strange in the payment record. There was a 75 cents mistake. One of the thousands of users had used the system for 75 worth of time and not paid for it. It might sound like very little money to worry about. But that 75 cents was the first clue Stoll had to a much bigger problem — that a hacker(黑客)had broken into Stoll‘s computer system. Who was it? Stoll spent the next year trying to find out. During that time the hacker used the system in Berkelely as a starting point to break into military computer systems all over the United States. Stoll had to keep track of the hacker‘s activities on the computer without the hacker‘s knowing someone was watching him. Stoll even made up huge files of false information so the hacker would have lots to read. When the hacker spent long time reading， the telephone company was able to trace the lines.
