17.When Jeff Sparkman draws his cartoon superheroes with colored pencils,he often has to ask other people to tell him what color his masked men turned out to be because he's color-blind.Now,a new smart phone application (app) can help him figure out what colors he's using and how the picture looks to most everyone else.
The DanKam app,available for iPhone and Android for 2.99dollars,is an application that turns the vague colors that one percent of the population with color-blindness sees into the"true"colors as everyone else sees them.In America,an estimated 32 million color-blind Americans-95% are males-can soon have their life improved.
"DanKam takes the stream of data coming in through the phone's camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall within the range that people who are color-blind see,"developer Dan Kaminsky told CNET.He came up with the idea after watching the 2009film Star Trek with a color-blind friend.
It was then that he got to know more about colorblindness like its varying types and degrees.A vast majority,for instance,have trouble seeing red or green due to a genetic defect(遗传缺陷).Blue-yellow colorblindness,however,is rarer and develops later in life because of aging,illness or head injuries,etc.He started experimenting with one of the most common representations of points in the RGB color model.What the DanKam app attempts to do is to clean up the color space of the image or video signal so that colors can be visible to those suffering from viewing problems."You can adjust the app to fit your needs.There is a range and not everyone who is color-blind sees things the same."Says Kaminsky.
Sparkman,a copy editor at CNET,tried out the app and was pleased with the results."It would be useful for dressing for a job interview,"he said.But using it for his art is"the most practical application."It worked well on LED and other lights on electronic gadgets,which means Sparkman can now identify the power light on his computer display as green.

61.According to the first two paragraphs,we can know that DanKamA.
A.is designed to help people with colorblindness
B.can turn vague colors into real ones
C.is a phone used to help drawing pictures

62.How does DanKam's app work?D
A.It puts LED and other lights on electronic gadgets.
B.It shows common representations of points in the RGB color model
C.It checks color-blind people's types of degrees of colorblindness.
D.It changes the colors so that color-blind people can see them.
63.It can be inferred from the passage that colorblindnessB.
A.cannot be cured by any methods   
B.is not necessarily inborn disease
C.is more commonly seen in women  
D.makes people unable to tell any colors
64.The underlined word visible in Paragraph 4is closest in meaning toD.

62.D 细节理解题.根据第三段中的"DanKam takes the stream of data coming inthrough the phone's camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall withinthe range that people who are color-blind see"可知,DanKam先采集了来自手机摄像头的颜色数据,然后稍微改变了下,这样颜色就变成了有色盲的人看到的状态."It changes the colors so that color-blind people can see them"符合语境.故选D.
63.B 推理判断题.根据第四段中的"Blue-yellow colorblindness,however,israrer and develops later in life because of aging,illness or head injuries,etc."可知,蓝黄色盲症是少见的,是在生活中后天形成的,原因有衰老、疾病或头部受伤等."is not necessarily inborn disease"(并非一定是先天疾病)符合语境.故选B.
64.D  词义猜测题. visible to thosesuffering from viewing problems.句意为这个应用软件试图去做的事是清理图片或是视频信号中的颜色以至于颜色对于那些有视力问题的人是可见的.可以推断出该应用软件是为那些有视力问题的人设计的,那么它的作用就是让他们能看见,所以该词的意思是可见的.故选D.
65.B 推理判断题.根据最后一段中的"It would be useful for dressing for a job interview"可知,DanKam 能帮助他选衣服;根据"usingit for his art is"the most practical application"可知,DanKam能帮助他画画;根据"Itworked well on LED and other lights on electronic gadgets"可知,针对LED屏的显示及电子产品发出其他的光,DanKam效果良好."Playing computer games"文中没有提到,符合语境.故选B.

8.From boy to man
Growing up on-screen for a decade as Harry Potter,22-year-old Daniel Radellif has had to deal with typecasting(角色定位) his whole career.However,in a new release called The woman in Black,the successful child actor finally escapes J.K.Rowling's hero by taking on the lead role in a classic ghost story.
The movie,which hit Chinese cinemas on Sept.20,tells the tale of a widowed lawyer named Arthur Kipps (Radcliffe) who is sent to a remote village in the north of England for a late client's affairs.There,he discovers the town's tragic past-children die after they see a mysterious woman dressed in black.To clear things up,he decides to stay alone in an old house,which is completely cut off from the mainland at high tide.
His fears grow when he sees a woman in black looking at him from the window and hears the sound of a pony and trap in difficulty,followed by the screams of a young child.Kipps decides he must find a way to break the cycle of horror after his son is threatened by the mysterious woman.
The story pulls out every old,dark house cliché(老套路) going:demonic(恶魔的) dolls,rocking chairs,and the ghostly black-cloaked woman herself.However,it has become one of this year's biggest box office winners in the UK when it was released there in February.
British movie critic Jamie Russell thinks what makes it so different,is how character-driven it is and how Radcliffe makes it count.
"The woman in Black works because of Radcliffe,not in spite of him,"he said."Radcliffe's face convinces you that Kipps knows what it is to have loved and lost forever."
There is not much conversation.Director James Watkins's gambled on Radcliffe's acting.He was not disappointed."It's an absolute joy doing the slow push in on Dan,reading his thoughts and letting the camera drift closer and closer into his eyes."He told British magazine Total Film.
For the former Potter star who has longed for a career away from Hogwarts,this ghost movie is a step in the right direction.
"It's mainly about working hard and proving to people you're serious about it,and stretching (倾注全力) yourself and learning."Radcliffe told British online newspaper The Huffington Post.
And he understands fame is fleeting."The line that has made the most lasting impression on me was by[US writer]William Goldman.He said something like,'Stars come and go,only actors last'."he told the news website.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

5.A woman was waiting at an airport one night.She hunted for a book,bought a bag of cookies and found a place to sit.
She was absorbed in her book but happened (25)to see(see) that the man sitting beside her grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in between them.She tried to ignore it.As the greedy cookie thief kept (26)eating(eat),she munched(大声咀嚼) some cookies and watched the clock.
She was getting angrier as time went by,thinking,"If I weren't so nice,I would blacken his eyes."With each cookie she took,he took one,too; when only one was left,she wondered what he (27)would do(do).
With a smile on his face,and a nervous laugh,he took the last cookie and broke it (28)in half.He offered her a half,and ate (29)the other.She grabbed it from him and thought,"Oooh,this guy is so rude!Why didn't he even show any gratitude?"
When her flight was called,she gathered her belongings and headed for the gate,(30)refusing(refuse) to look back at the rude thief.She boarded the plane,sank in her seat,and looked for her book.
As she reached in her baggage,she found her bag of cookies with surprise."(31)If/Since mine is here,the others were his,and he tried to share!How rude I was!It was I who (32)should have showed gratitude."
12.There is a happy truth to be shared with all who would notice.The truth has been expressed as:April (1)showersbring May flowers.This is a truth that promises light would burst from darkness,strength would be born from(2)weaknessand if one dares to believe this,he would(3)succeedin doing what he plans to do.
Farmers all over the world know the(4)importanceof the seasons.They know that there is a season to plant and a season to(5)harvest;everything must be done in its own time.Although the rain pours down,stopping all(6)outdooractivities,farmers lift their(7)facesto the heavens and smile.Despite the inconvenience,they know that the rain(8)providesthe nourishment ( 营养) their crops need to grow and flourish (繁荣).The rains in the month of April give rise to the beautiful flowers in the month of May.
But this ancient truth tells us more than that-it is a valuable message of(9)hope   to all who experience tragedy in life.A broken relationship with one can(10)open up  the door to a new friendship with another.A(11)lost  job here can provide the opportunity for a better job there.A(12)broken  dream can become the foundation of a wonderful future.(13)rememberthis:Darkness may last for a night,but it will never overcome the  (14)lightof the morning.When you are in a(15)season of sorrow,don't be depressed,because a season of joy may be just around the corner.
