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 hand.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 ________. A．help to update computer systems B．link the human brain with computers C．help the disabled to recover D．control a person’s thoughts 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。由第一段中的“...scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers.Brain­computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.”可知选B。 2．How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory? A．By controlling his muscles. B．By talking to the machine. C．By moving his hand. D．By using his mind. 答案　D 解析　细节理解题。由第三段内容“...Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand.He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.”可知选D。 3．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5? A．scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair B．computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair C．scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair D．cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。由第五段前三句可知选C。 4．The team will test with real patients to ________. A．make profits from them B．prove the technology useful to them C．make them live longer D．learn about their physical condition 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。由最后一段中的“One is testing with real patients，so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from.”可知选B。 5．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．Switzerland，the BCI Research Center B．New Findings about How the Human Brain Works C．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled D．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries 答案　C 解析　标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了BCI是如何帮助残疾人的。故选C。 Ⅲ.概括大意题 A．New Teachers’ Opinions of Involving Parents B．An Argument over an Assignment C．A Conflict between Assumption and Reality D．Difficulties in Sharing Goals E．The Best Way to Score High F．Proper Ways of Parental Involvement 1．________ An Iowa high school counselor gets a call from a parent protesting the “C” her child received on an assignment.“The parent argued every point in the essay，”recalls the counselor，who soon realized why the mother was so disappointed about the grade.“It became apparent that she’d written it.” 2．________ In a survey,90% of new teachers agreed that involving parents in their children’s education is a priority at their school，but only 25% described their experience working with parents as “very satisfying”．When asked to choose the biggest challenge they face,31% of them quoted involving parents and communicating with them as their top choice.73% of new teachers said too many parents treat schools and teachers as enemies. 3．________ At a time when competition is rising and resources are limited，when battles over testing force schools to adjust their priorities，when cell phones and e­mail speed up the information flow and all kinds of private ghosts and public quarrels slip into the parent­teacher conference，it’s harder for both sides to step back and breathe deeply and look at the goals they share. 4．________ Everyone says the parent­teacher conference should be pleasant，civilized，a kind of dialogue where parents and teachers build partnership.But what most teachers feel，and certainly what all parents feel，is anxiety and panic. 5．________ When a teacher asks parents to be partners，he or she doesn’t necessarily mean Mom or Dad should be camping in the classroom.Research shows that though students benefit modestly from having parents involved at school，what happens at home matters much more.According to research based on the National Education Longitudinal Study，a sample of nearly 25,000 eighth graders，among four main areas of parental involvement (home discussion，home supervision，school communication，and school participation)，home discussion was the most strongly related. 答案　1.B　2.A　3.D　4.C　5.F
