Greg Kloehn , an artist in Oakland ,California is using his skills to help the homeless. He builds very small shelters that make life on the streets a little more comfortable. The structures offer the homeless some safety and protection from bad weather. Each little house also has wheels on the bottom so it can go wherever its owner goes.

Greg Kloehn has given away at least 20 tiny houses. Several are on the roadside near an active railroad. On a recent day, Mr. Kloehn stops at one to visit Oscar Young. The two men hug. Inside his little shelter Mr. Young gets relief from cold nights on the streets. Mr. Kloehn also visits Sweet-Pea, another friend who also lives in one of the little homes the artist built. She says it keeps her safe and protects her possessions.

In the mornings, Mr. Kloehn searches the streets for building materials. He gathers what he can and takes it to his studio. There, he puts the houses together. Empty coffee bags become roof material. A washing machine door and refrigerator part become windows. Nails, screws and the sticky glue hold all the pieces together. The artist also attaches a small electrical device to the house. The device is powered by the sun.

Some of the people living on the streets once had normal houses of their own. But some of the people say they have learned to live with less and they are thankful to that man.

Mr. Kloehn says his work is not a social project. He says he is just someone using his skills to help his homeless neighbors.

The number of people hiding their identity while surfing the web has risen in the past year.

Research shows that the level of “encrypted” internet activity has risen dramatically across the world, suggesting that millions of people have begun to use software that hides who they are while accessing the web.

According to Sandvine, the technology networking company, hidden internet traffic in peak hours in Europe has been up to 6.1 per cent of all web activities compared with about 1.5 per cent a year earlier. In North America encrypted traffic went up to 3.8 per cent from 2.3 per cent a year earlier, while in Latin America it jumped to almost 10.4 per cent from 1.8 per cent.

Experts said that the changes in online behavior were the result of exposure(曝光) about widespread internet spying by intelligence agencies, such as that exposed by Edward Snowden, the US National Security Agency whistleblower.

“It will be interesting to see how these trends develop,” said Ernesto Van der Sar, the pen-name used by the editor-in-chief of Torrentfreak.com, the website that first reported the figures. “In any case, it’s clear that internet services and their users are becoming more aware of their privacy online, which is generally a good development.”

Last week Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the British inventor of the web, defended the right of agencies to spy on the internet for law enforcement (强制实施) . He said, “We have to figure out how to balance that against rights.”

28. The word “encrypted” in Paragraph Two has the closest meaning with ______.

A. false B. hidden C. cheating D. changed

29. Which area has seen the largest rise in “encrypted” internet activity?

A. Europe. B. North America. C. Latin America. D. Eastern Asia.

30. Why do more people hide their identity while surfing the web?

A. To cheat others. B. To have more fun.

C. To follow the fashion. D. To prevent their privacy being spied on.

31. What’s Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s opinion on some agencies’ spying on the internet?

A. It’s illegal. B. It’s totally right.

C. It’s against human rights. D. It’s acceptable to some degree.
