What are ethics? ethics are the moral values that stop you from doing anything that is not legal and that does not harm or damage anyone else's work, or interests. These simple etiquette and ethics help the environment to be more safe, friendly and co-operative for others around. Computer ethics are nothing but how we use our personal morals and ethics while using the computer for various purposes. They consist of all the rules that you would apply to not misuse any information that is not yours to use, or to access any data that is not owned by you. With issues like cyber crimes, plagiarism, hacking and password thefts, it has become important to know the importance of computer ethics to be able to create a safe computer-based environment.Your computer is not just an electronic device for communication, it is your data store, your photo album, your work recorder, your social network, your calculator and what not..., it is what you are!If you get involved in downloading information or accessing portals that you are not allowed to, you are opening the doors of various issues and threats like viruses and Trojans that can illegally enter your system and crash it completely! On the other hand, if your system is used in the way it is supposed to, you are creating a safer and a better atmosphere wherein you can rest assured that your work and your personal information is absolutely safe and secure.Computer ethics are something that cannot be imposed on you, it is rather something that should be followed out of your own will and desire. The way you use the computer to access information speaks a lot about you and your ethical values. What would you do if you get your colleague's password? Would you ask him or her to change it since you accidentally found out, or would you try to get some information that you are not supposed to? There are two kinds of people in this world, one who follow the rules and respect them at the same time, and the others who don't really care. Should you care about the ethics involved in becoming a responsible citizen? You decide! Nevertheless, if you are caught, rest assured the authorities won't care about you as well3.Why are we loosing productive land? How shall we address the land problems?为什么我们要失去生产的土地?我们该如何解决土地问题?原因First reason is overgrazing by farm animals. The animals eat too many of the plants, they aren’t enough plants left to hold the soil in place. Then the topsoil is eroded by wind and rain they carry it away. Second reason is over-cutting of trees. If trees are cut down and not replanted, there is nothing to hold the good soil, wind and water carry the good soil away and it erodes quickly, leaving land that is dry and less productive. Third reason is farming methods are another big factor. The traditional methods that have been used for hundreds of years no longer work well. Some farmers may use too much fertilizer on the limited land they have or not let the land rest from year to year causing it to become lessfertile.解决办法The experts try to help countries look at their specific problems and figure out what possible changes they can make to protect their land. Farmers might try to grow genetically engineered crops that don’t hurt the oil as much or plant new trees, or raise fewer animals, or build new irrigation systems that leave less salt in the soil.4.Are you for or against the wide application of DNA testing?你是赞成还是反对DNA测试的广泛应用?When we were born, we completely didn’t know what the future may have in store for us.

The policemen can easily find the suspect by detecting the DNA in the hair or something else that is part of the suspect’s body, which is left in the scene of cri me.There is one important thing which must be made clear that DNA testing must be used properly, in order to av oid ethical problems. It should be considered only to help verify exhaustive research of the historical world. After all, this technique has assisted people in solving so much problems, and it surely will continue to contribute to our everyday life.5.What recommendations will you give to those who want to stay health?你会给那些想要保持健康的人提供什么建议?Health is far more important than wealth and wisdom。
