  •   Passage D
      Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface(接口)(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
      Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic school in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated(展示)a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.
      In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right band. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
      “our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓)to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”
      The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
      Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”
      He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.

    1. BCI is a technology that can

    Ahelp to update computer systems

    Blink the human brain with computers

    Chelp the disabled to recover

    Dcontrol a person's thoughts

  •   Passage C
      You either have it, or you don’t-a sense of direction. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map while others can lose themselves in the next street?
      Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.
      “Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, research director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”
      Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:
      If you are using a map, turn it so that it relates to(与……有联系) the way you are facing.
      If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree-something easy to recognize. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
      Simplify(简化) the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or wells in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as towerblocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
      Now you will never get lost again!

  •   Passage B
      (Q=Question; A=Answer)
      SituationⅠ
      Q: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theatre, is it rude to move?
      A: Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it. Chances are that the close sitter doesn’t realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance. You undoubtedly aren’t the first person he’s met who needs enough room. Forgive his bad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.
      SituationⅡ
      Q: If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something?
      A: Consider frequency and urgency. Is this a one-time thing or an emergency? If so, you don’t have to buy anything, but it would be kind if you did. However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.
      Situation Ⅲ
      Q: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?
      A: No, try other means:1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down.2) Lift your finger in a silence motion(动作) and smile.3) Put on earphones and ignore him.
      Situation Ⅳ
      Q: If I remember my friend’s birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?
      A: This is the reason why the word belated was invented. “Happy belated birthday!” is short for:“Well, I know I forgot. But then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday.”
      SituationⅤ
      Q: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond to it?
      A: Don’t lie. Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it. Why waste a perfectly good lie when the truth will serve? “Yes,” you can say if ever asked,“I saw it.”No explanation is needed as to why you don’t respond.

    3. How will you quiet someone down in a public place?

    ABy making fun of him continuously.

    BBy looking purposefully at him.

    CBy talking to him directly.

    DBy pointing angrily at him.
