Why is a chip on a credit card considered 'safer' than swiping the magnetic strip?【译】为什么信用卡上的芯片被认为比刷磁条的更安全？【单词】chip [chip][tʃɪp] n. 芯片【单词】credit ['kred-it]['kredɪt] n. 信用；名誉；学分；赞赏；贷款；赊欠；贷方；存款【单词】credit card 信用卡【单词】safer 原型：safe 形容词比较级 更安全的【单词】swiping 原型：swipe [swahyp][swaɪp] v. 在解码器上刮刷（信用卡等卡）【单词】magnetic [mag-'net-ik][mæɡ'netɪk] adj. 有磁性的；有吸引力的【单词】strip [strip][strɪp] n. 长条；条状
The magnetic strip is like a secret code that lets you buy things.【译】磁条就像一个可以让你买东西的密码。【单词】secret ['see-krit]['siːkrət] adj. 秘密的；机密的；安全的【单词】code [kohd][kəʊd] n. 码，数码，密码
I can copy your secret code and use it to buy things.【译】我可以复制你的密码用来买东西。【单词】copy ['kop-ee]['kɒpi] v. 复制；缮写；抄袭
The chip is like a little man who makes secret codes that can each be used to buy one thing.【译】芯片就像一个小人，他制造出密码，每个密码都可以用来买一件东西。
I can copy the secret code but not the little man.【译】我能复制密码，但不能复制那个小人。
Because the secret code only works once and for a limited time, and in one situation, stealing the secret code isn't useful.【译】由于（小人制造的）密码只能在有限的韶光内有效并且只能利用一次，而且只能用在当时，因此盗取这种密码是没有用的。【单词】limited 原型：limit ['lim-it]['lɪmɪt] vt. 限定；限定。这里的limited是过去分词做形容词，意为“有限的”【单词】stealing 原型：steal [steel][stiːl] v. 偷；盗取
You can't steal the little man without doing a lot of work.【译】你为了就偷走这个小人则须要费很大的功夫。
Magnetic strips can be much more easily duplicated than the chips.【译】磁条就比芯片随意马虎复制得多。【单词】duplicated 原型：duplicate ['doo-pli-keyt, 'dyoo-]['djuːplɪkət] v. 复制；重复
The strip can be duplicated just by reading the swipe, since the data it gives is the data it has.【译】只需（用读卡器）大略读取一下即可复制这种磁条，由于它得到的数据便是它内部存储的数据（没有加密）。【单词】data ['dey-tuh]['deɪtə] 是datum的复数形式，一样平常也是最常用复数形式 n. 资料；数据；材料 （复数）data.
The chip, instead, gives an encrypted code based on what you ask it by combining the value you gave it with a secret one it has, and even if you ask it hundreds of times, you won't be able to figure out the secret number it stores inside it.【译】取而代之的是，芯片会根据你的哀求（每次）给出一个新的加密密码，把你给它的一个输入值（一串数字）和它存储的一个密钥结合打算起来，这样纵然你问了几百次，你也无法找出它里面存储的秘密号码。【词法】even if是“纵然，纵然”的意思，为连词，用于勾引让步状语从句。如：Even if it rains tomorrow, we won't change our plan. 纵然明天下雨，我们也决不改变操持。【单词】encrypted [en-'kript][ɪn'krɪpt] vt. 加密；将...译成密码【单词】based 原型：base [beys][beɪs] vt. 以 ... 作根本【单词】combining 原型：combine [kuhm-'bahyn][kəm'baɪn] v. 联合；使结合；结合【单词】stores 原型：store [stawr, stohr][stɔː] vt. 储存；贮藏；保存
When the reader says to it "what value do you get when I give you Value Y?" the chip responds with what it gets, and then that is checked by the institution that issued the card (who know the secret number too so can do the same calculation and see if the results match).【译】当读者对它说“当我给你输入数值Y时，你得到了什么结果？”芯片用它得到的信息进行相应，然后由发卡机构进行检讨（发卡机构也知道密码，以是可以进行同样的打算，看当作果是否匹配）。【单词】reader ['ree-der]['riːdə] n. 读卡器，读取器【单词】responds 原型：respond [ri-'spond][rɪ'spɒnd] v. 回答；相应；反应【单词】checked 原型：check [chek][tʃek] v. 检讨；核对【单词】institution [in-sti-'too-shuhn, -'tyoo-][ˌɪnstɪ'tjuːʃn] n. 机构【单词】calculation [kal-kyuh-'ley-shuh n][ˌkælkju'leɪʃn] n. 打算【单词】match [mach][mætʃ] v. 相配；和...相配；相同等【单词】value ['val-yoo]['væljuː] n. 数值
