3.For those who are tired doing the laundry,Samsung has found an answer:a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smartphone app(application).
Strange though it may seem-"my wife already does that"was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this week-Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install (安装) a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them"smart".
Last year,it was a refrigerator that tweeted.This year,it's Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.
The washers and dryers,available starting in the spring,connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application.The phone can then be used as a remote control,so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners is at work or on the bus.
Samsung says it's not just something new-the app connection actually has some practical uses.
"If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out,you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home,so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,"said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.
The company also says that with electricity rate(电价)varying depending on the time of day,more control over when the machines are used can help save money.
Perhaps,but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do-enable laziness.Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done,users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.

72.What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?D.
A.The machine will be a big success.

An Israeli law banning too skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013. The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 68 inches tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.

“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny.”

But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.

But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation(立法) can change the situation. There was no time to waste; so many girls were dieting to death.”

However, the efforts to regulate models’ weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.

Still, folks including Ice say there’s no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I don't believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”

1. One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is ________.

A. to change the working conditions of models

B. to prevent models from suffering from eating disorders

C. to provide guidance for women worshiping thinness

D. to lower the chance of skinny models’ death

2.In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t succeed because .

A. it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit.

B. the fashion industry is much too influential.

C. it doesn’t create a healthy working environment for models.

D. it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work well.

3. What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation?

A. Being interviewed by a reporter.

B. Establishing his fashion model agent.

C. Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model.

D. Seeing a model die from eating disorders.

4.According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is .

A. practical B. reasonable

C. acceptable D. argumentative
