【题目】Swiss researchers said Monday they have developed a wireless camera system to monitor vital signs in premature babies, a move that could replace uncomfortable and highly inaccurate skin sensors (传感器) which produce false alarms in up to 90 percent of cases, mainly set off by the baby’s movement.

“This is a cause of discomfort for the babies, because we have to check on them every time,” said Jean-Claude Fauchere, a doctor at University Hospital Zurich’s newborn clinic.

His hospital is preparing to begin tests of a new, contactless system created by researchers at the EPFL polytechnical university in Lausanne and at the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology.

The system designed in Switzerland should allow premature babies kept warm in incubators (恒温箱) to be medically monitored using highly sensitive cameras that detect the newborn’s pulse by analyzing its skin color, which changes so slightly every time its heart beats.

“Breathing is monitored by measuring movements of its chest and shoulders. At night, infrared (红外线的) cameras take over, and monitoring can be carried out non-stop,” the statement said.

The visual system was designed by CSEM researchers, who chose cameras sensitive enough to detect minute changes in skin color, while the EPFL researchers designed algorithms (运算程序) to process the data in real time.

“We ran an early study on adults, where we looked at a specific part of skin on their foreheads,” EPFL doctoral student Sibylle Fallet said. “With our algorithms we can track this area when the person moves, and use tiny changes in their color to determine the pulse,” she said. “The tests showed that the cameras produced practically the same results as conventional sensors.”

Once the system has been widely tested on premature babies, it could one day replace skin sensors altogether, the schools said.

【1】What is the advantage of the wireless camera system?

A. It is light and painless. B. It is mobile and effective.

C. It is cheap and convenient. D. It is comfortable and accurate.

【2】What is the key for the wireless camera to monitor a premature baby?

A. Its non-stop measurement.

B. Good condition of incubators.

C. Its sensitivity to sense skin color change.

D. The algorithms to process the data in time.

【3】It be inferred from what Sibylle Fallet said that .

A. their early study on adults was successful

B. the system has been used on premature babies

C. the visual system can sense the people’s pulse

D. the wireless cameras will replace conventional sensors

【4】What’s the schools’ attitude towards the visual system?

A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Unconcerned. D. Uncertain.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】C

【3】A

【4】B

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一种新型用来监测早产儿的无线相机监测系统，这种新系统比传统的传感器更加准确和舒适。

【1】推理判断题。根据第一段a move that could replace uncomfortable and highly inaccurate skin sensors (传感器) which produce false alarms in up to 90 percent of cases, mainly set off by the baby’s movement.可知这种新型无线相机系统可以取代以前的令人不舒服也不准确的传感器，也就是说这种新的系统令人舒服也很准确。故D项正确。

【2】推理判断题。根据第四段using highly sensitive cameras that detect the newborn’s pulse by analyzing its skin color, which changes so slightly every time its heart beats.可知这种新型系统可以使用高度敏感的相机，这种相机可以监测早产儿的皮肤颜色变化。这一特点是这个系统的关键所在。故C项正确。

【3】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“The tests showed that the cameras produced practically the same results as conventional sensors.”可知早期研究结果说明新系统测量的数据和传统的感应器效果是一样的。说明这项早期研究是很成功的。故A项正确。

【4】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段可知对这种系统的早期研究很成功，而且这种系统比传统系统更加准确更加舒适，未来可能取代现在的的感应器。可知作者对这一系统的态度是乐观的。故B项正确。

I lost my passport two days before at about 8:30 in the evening that I bought three dictionaries at the MBC bookstore. By accidents, I left my passport at the shop. When I realized what I have done, I telephoned the shop, but the shop assistants there could not find one. I would be grateful if you could tell me what documents I need send you in order to get a new passport. Do you require any passport photographs, and if so how many? How much will a new passport cost but in which currency would you like me to pay off? I must apologize to any inconvenience caused and look forward to hear from you soon.

【题目】阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

What makes the sea tum red and causes thousands of fish to die？As far back as anyone could remember，the blame was placed on the "red tides. " In 1947，scientists finally connected the red tides with a microscopic sea organism（有机体）【1】（call）the dinoflagellate.

The dinoflagellate is so tiny 【2】 6，000 of these organisms may be contained in 【3】 single drop of water. It stands on the borderline between plant and animal in its clasification. it produces its own food，as plants do. But it moves 【4】（free）and eats other organisms，as animals do.

Dinoflagellates are normally only one of the many kinds of organisms found in plankton. Plankton is the name given to all very small 【5】（form）of sea life. However，when the air and water 【6】（be）calm and warm，dinoflagellates multiply with 【7】（amaze）sped. The surface of the water appears 【8】（cover）with a red carpet.

The dinoflagellates give off a poison. Many fish die. Their bodies are washed up on the beach. Beaches are not fit 【9】 any use. Fish that are not killed may become 【10】（poison）to animals or people who eat them. Commercial fishing comes to a stop.

As dinoflagellates consume all the food and oxygen in an area，they die. After a time，the sea returns to normal. But when conditions are right，the red tide comes again.

【题目】When I was a child I thought a lot about what it means to love. I once asked my mother if she loved me or my father 【1】(many), certain that I knew the answer — me. Instead, she bent down and looked at me【2】 the eye, hands gently on each shoulder. She explained that she couldn’t help 【3】(love) me and that the love of a mother for her baby was incredibly strong. But then she told me that the love she had for my daddy was a love of 【4】(choose), which made it special. Of all the people in the world, she chose 【5】 and he chose her. Now that I’m married, I consider each day 【6】 it takes to stay married as long as my parents have. It’s not that I don’t believe in romance. 【7】 I believe more in the sacred of the ordinary. I believe in love that is sustained by deliberate 【8】(kind) and the choice to see little acts as testaments of love and commitment rather than indicators of a spark that has died of love communicated each time he cooks meals and I schedule his dental appointment. This picture of love is certainly less 【9】(excite), but decidedly real, and more romantic in its own way because of the weight of its 【10】(real).

A. lies in; thoseB. brings out; the onesC. accounts for; thatD. comes to; ones

It was in a hot summer holiday which I visited Qingdao, port city in Shandong Province. My favourite sport is swimming, so I decide to go swimming in the sea one afternoon with my friend, Wang Fei and Li Lei.

It was the first time that I had swum in the sea , with waves come one after another to the shore and making great noises. Facing the rough sea, I felt a bit worrying and nearly gave up at first. And when I saw many people enjoying myself in the water, my fear was reducing. At last I joined in the swimmers. Now I still remember what wonderful swimming in the sea was.
