[2025 南通市海安市期中]① Did you know that when you surf the web, some websites in certain countries install secret software on your computer? This software collects a large amount of information about you and sends it to internet companies, which then sell the information to other businesses. Your personal information can also be gathered from social media platforms. There are various ways this information may be used.
② First, these companies collect your data and record all your online habits. They figure out where you live, which websites you visit and what activities you do online. With this information, they can infer other details about you. For instance, they can guess your gender, age and interests. They use this data to determine which advertisements suit you best. Two people visiting the same website may see completely different ads. For example, someone who likes sports might be shown ads for sports shoes, while a film lover could see promotions of a new movie.
③ Your personal information might also be sold for profit. Some companies specialize in collecting information and sell it to other businesses. Such a business that collects and sells personal information is known as a data broker. When data brokers sell your information, numerous different companies gain access to your online habits, and then they will promote products from other websites to you.
④ Another way your personal information can be obtained is through social media. Once your information is posted on social media, it becomes visible to many people. Even if you don't use social media yourself, a friend might share a photo or video of you with your name attached. Free sharing of pictures and videos is one of the great benefits of social media. However, this very act of sharing could put your personal security at risk. If someone learns too much about you, they may steal your identity. They can then make online purchases or post messages while pretending to be you.

答案：6. D 细节理解题。根据“They figure out where you live, which websites you visit and what activities you do online ... For instance, they can guess your gender, age and interests.”可知，公司通过收集信息能得知用户的住址、在线活动、年龄和爱好，未提及工作。
7. B 词义猜测题。根据前文 This software collects a large amount of information about you 及后文“There are various ways this information may be used.”可知，gathered 意为“收集”。
8. B 推理判断题。根据“Even if you don't use social media yourself, a friend might share a photo or video of you with your name attached ... this very act of sharing could put your personal security at risk.”可知，朋友发布带有你名字的视频可能会导致个人信息泄露，B 项表述错误。
9. A 信息回填题。根据最后一段中“The law is finally evolving to keep up with technological developments.”可知，段落开头需转折引出积极消息，A 项能自然衔接后文的法律保障内容。
10. B 篇章结构题。根据文章脉络可知，①段总述网络和社交媒体会收集个人信息且有多种使用方式；②③④段分别介绍信息的具体使用场景；⑤段转折说明法律层面的保护措施，故结构为“总—分—总”，即①/②③④/⑤。

【分析】
这是一篇围绕个人网络信息安全展开的说明文，解题时可以先明确每道题的考点，针对性回原文定位：第6题是细节理解题，回到第2段逐一核对收集到的信息内容，排除原文未提及的项；第7题是词义猜测题，结合上下文出现的同语义表达推断划线词含义；第8题是细节判断题，将每个选项和原文对应内容逐一比对，找出表述错误的选项；第9题是信息回填题，梳理前后段落的逻辑关系，前文讲信息泄露的风险，后文讲法律出台的利好措施，选择能衔接转折逻辑的选项；第10题是篇章结构题，先概括每段核心大意，再划分文本的整体结构即可。
【解析】
6. 定位原文第2段内容：文中明确提到公司收集信息后可以得知用户的住址（对应c）、线上活动内容（对应b），还能推断出用户的年龄和兴趣爱好（对应a），全文没有提及可以获取用户的工作信息（d），符合要求的是abc，因此选D。
7. 定位第1段划线词所在句：前文提到相关软件会收集大量用户个人信息，后文说明这些信息有多种使用途径，划线词所在句“Your personal information can also be gathered from social media platforms”和前一句的“collects a large amount of information”语义呼应，因此gathered的含义和collected一致，选B。
8. 逐一核对选项：A选项，根据第3段内容可知数据经纪人靠售卖个人信息牟利，表述正确；B选项，根据第4段内容可知，朋友发布带有你名字的相关视频会导致你的个人信息泄露，并非没人能获取你的信息，该选项表述错误；C选项，根据第5段GDPR的相关说明，用户有权要求公司删除收集到的个人信息，表述正确；D选项，根据第2段内容，不同用户在同一网站看到不同广告，是因为他们的线上习惯被收集，平台会推送适配的广告，表述正确。因此错误项是B。
9. 第2-4段都在介绍个人信息被滥用、泄露的各类风险，属于负面内容，第5段转而介绍法律跟进、出台法规保护用户数据安全的利好内容，前后为转折逻辑。A选项“However, it's not all bad news.”可以自然衔接前文的风险内容，引出后文的法律保障利好，符合语境；其余选项均无法匹配前后文逻辑，因此选A。
10. 梳理段落核心：第①段总起，点明网络场景下个人信息会被收集，且有多种使用方式；第②③④段分别从精准投放广告、售卖信息牟利、社交媒体泄露三个维度，具体介绍个人信息被使用、泄露的不同场景，属于分述部分；第⑤段总述，介绍法律层面的信息保护措施，说明网络环境会逐步变得更安全。整体为总-分-总结构，对应划分方式为①/②③④/⑤，选B。
