Apple Offers $1 Million to Anyone Who Can Break into iPhone

Apple says it will pay $1 million to any researcher who can successfully break into an iPhone. Other technology companies are also offering big payments for people to identify serious security threats in an effort to prevent major internet attacks. A company official recently announced the new reward at a yearly security conference in Las Vegas.

The Black Hat conference is attended by many security researchers who attempt to hack the computer systems of companies and governments. The researchers seek security weaknesses that need to be fixed to prevent outside attackers from breaking into systems and devices.

Apple’s $1 million offer is thought to be the largest reward promised by a major technology company to defend against internet attacks. The announcement came from Apple’s Head of Security Engineering and Architecture, Ivan Krstic.

The $1 million reward will be paid to any researcher who meets Apple’s conditions for gaining full access to an iOS device without assistance from the owner, the website AppleInsider reported.

VIII. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer for each question.

It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstanding between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they are possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems - and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships.

I think it is true that parents often, underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.

Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.

Sometimes you are resistant and proud, because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog: you can't win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parent's control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself.

If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You cancharm others, especially your parents, into doing things the! ways you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.
