题目内容

C

    Not even Dan Brown and his Da Vinci code—breakers(密码破译者)dared deal with the mystery of Mona Lisa,s smile.But Nicu Sebe,a computer expert the University of Amsterdam,the Netherlands,did.He used’emotion recognition’software to process the famous painting and found Mona Lisa happy(83 per cent)and slightly disgusted(厌烦的)(9 per cent).

    Faces show emotions. Psychology,computer science,and engineering researchers are joining forces to teach machines to read expressions.If they succeed,your computer may one day“read”your mood.Machines equipped with emotional skills could also be used in teaching,gaming,mind-reading,etc.

    “Mind Reader”,a system developed by Rosalind Picard at MIT(the Massachusetts Institute of Tech’nology)in the US, uses input from a video camera to do real—time analysis of facial expressions. It reports on whether you seem“interested”or“agreeable”or if you’re“confused”.The system can help people recognize others’emotions.Picard says this means we could teach a machine to be as sensitive as a human.In fact,a machine can be even smarter than people since it can tell if a person is lying or just“performing”by analyzing one’s facial movements.

      Jeffrey Cohn,a psychologist at the University of Pittsburgh,uses the Facial Action Coding System to recognize human emotions.The system sorts more than 40 action units(AUs)of the face to tell people’s real emotions.He studied a videotape of a criminal who said to be sad about the murder of several family members and tried to pin the blame on someone else.But Cohn saw no real sadness in the woman’s face.

      Sadness is a group of AUs that is difficult to do at the same time.You have to pull down the woman’s of your lips while bringing your eyebrows together and raising them.What the woman did was raise her cheeks to make a lip cud(撇嘴)。Her brows stayed smooth.

64.The best title of this passage is“ ________ ”.

      A.The emotion on your face                      B.Look at your face

      C.Your face tells a story                          D.Telling a lie

65.The missing sentence“This means,even though your mouth lice,your face doesn’t,and the machine will know it all. ”should be put at the end of ___________.

      A.Paragraph 2    B.Paragraph 3       C.Paragraph 4     D.Paragraph 5

66.How many facial emotion analyses are mentioned in this passage?

      A.Four.                B.Three.               C.Two.          D.One

67.The underlined word“it”refers to________.

      A.MIT                                  B.the video camera

    C.one’s face emotion            D.the real—time analysis

Although the New Year is already here, the great moments of the past year are still in the memory. Let’s look back at some of them.

United States

One of the world’s largest New Year’s Eve parties was held in Times Square, New York. The festival attracted hundreds of thousands of people to watch a brightly-lit ball drop on a landmark building at the stroke (击、打) of midnight.

A great amount of confetti (五彩纸屑) was released from the sky at zero o’clock.

Britain

Painted in shinning colors, blowing whistles, 50,000 party-goers arrived in London’s Millennium Dome to dance in the New Year. The Millennium Dome came to life at midnight as 50 DJs started up, competing on five separate dance floors to warm the crowd into the party mood.

Russia

New Year is the biggest holiday in Russia. It is traditional to put up a tree for celebrations with family and friends.

On the very last day of last year, Russians with a taste for a very cold swim braved freezing temperatures to plant traditional, festival trees on the bed of the Northern Ocean and at the bottom of Lake Baikal, the world’s deepest lake.

Malaysia

Brave skydivers threw themselves off the world’s tallest building near midnight and floated towards the New Year.

The jump from the 452-metre Petronas Twin Tower was called a real leap from one year to the next since the group took off in the last second of the old year and landed a minute later in the New Year. “That was really cool,” said Roland Simpson, “over crowds of onlookers to the landing spot.”
