Which would you rather have come to your hospital room: a doctor you’ve never met before, or a robot that lets you communicate with your personal physician? A new study shows that many patients would prefer the robot.

The study, conducted by researchers at Johns Hopkins University, focused on how patients reacted to a “rounding robot”. Fifteen of the mobile robots, produced by California-based InTouch Health, have been placed in hospitals and nursing homes nationwide.

The 200-pound robots stand about 5 feet tall. They have flat video screens for heads, and video cameras serve as their eyes and ears. Using a joystick（操纵杆）, a doctor can operate the rounding robot to check on patients from another building or another country, through the Internet and wireless links. The doctor’s face appears on the robot’s screen, and he or she interacts with the patient through the real-time video.

The aim of the technology isn’t to replace human doctors, but to make it more convenient for doctors to deep in touch with their patients, and for patients to get quick access to personal physicians who aren’t at the hospital.

 The Johns Hopkins experiment, conducted at the Maryland University’s hospital, involved 60 patients recuperating(康复)from surgery. Half of those said they would prefer a tele-visit by their own physician to a real visit by another physician. 80% of the patients in the study thought the robots would increase accessibility to their physician, while 76% believed having the robot available would permit physicians to provide more medical information.

 InTouch leases(出租) the robots for $3,000 a month, which includes computer software, training and technical support. The robots are not for sale because the software is updated about once a month, said Timothy Wright, InTouch’s vice president.

72. From the passage, we can know that InTouch Health is probably_______.

A. a campaign carried out across California    B. a medical project at Johns Hopkins University

C. a company producing mobile robots        D. a piece of medical equipment

73. The rounding robots _______.

A. will replace doctors in the future           B. are only in use in California and Maryland

C. can give patients treatment by themselves    D. can give patients treatment by themselves

74. What’s the purpose of using the “rounding robot” technology?

A. To reduce the nurses’ heavy workload         B. To solve the problem of lack of doctors.

C. To bring convenience to doctors and patients.  

D. To make patients feel more relaxed and comfortable.

75. How many patients prefer to be visited by a rounding robot in the experiment?

A. 80%     B. 76%     C. 60%      D. 50%

I have to hire many people to grow my business, Most of the people who apply for work have such things like educational experience and work experience. What they often fail to show me on paper or in the interview is the confidence to get the job, do the job and grow in the job.

If you bring your confidence, most employers will see exactly what they’re seeking in you. Then, all the weaknesses and shortcomings on your resume(履历) will disappear. Not having enough experience, youth— all the things that you think of as disadvantages — will be diminished.

So when you write your resume(个人简历), explain why you’re sure that you can do this job; even more importantly, that you’re the right person for this job. Some life experiences show personal confidence, for example, membership or leadership in youth groups, success on sports teams, achievement of a personal goal.

Whether you’re on the phone or in a face-to-face meeting, be confident that you’re the one. Before an interview, look into a mirror (镜子)and tell yourself why you believe you’ll succeed in the interview; why you’ll get the job. Let your self-confidence come through in the way you sit, the way you answer questions, and in the kinds of questions you ask.

If you don’t have the confidence you need, then go out and get it. Get more education; get wider experience by volunteering or taking on extra jobs; get involved in community activities to test your ability to work with others and get the interpersonal experience you need. If you do, your confidence will come through in every aspect of your writing and speaking. You’ll be showing me that you’re the one. Good luck!

I remember my mother as a strong woman. She came to America when she was 12－old enough to remember her homeland, young enough to forget. While learning a new language, she achieved scores and grades high enough to be admitted to Duke University. With a degree in computer science, she finally became the manager of a company in New York. My mother could give fluent speeches, say “wolves” correctly.

It was my mother who always stressed (强调) the importance of language. From the time I was born, I was read to. I would fall asleep to the sounds of my parents’ voices, whether it was my dad’s softly accented, or my mother’s clear English. The flow of language was unbroken, and whether in Chinese or English, the stream of communication flowed through our house.

One October morning in sixth grade, after my mother had left to catch the train to the city, I left the house for the bus stop. I was surprised when I saw our car, the door hanging open. As I drew closer, I saw my mother lying on the ground.

In the hospital, it was hard to believe that the lady who lay before me was my mom. My mother could not remember my name. As the leaves changed colors, it became clear that the stroke(中风)had created a wall between my mother’s mind and mouth: Her mind was not any less clear, but the words she spoke were not what she meant.

The battle my mother faced taught me the importance of language. Without it, identity does not exist; relationships cannot be formed; stories cannot be told; directions cannot be given, and knowing anything about anyone is impossible. Without language, communication cannot take place. Without language, one cannot express the beauty of a sunset or the kindness of a stranger. The world would pass us by in silence.

60. From where might the author’s mom come to America?

A. China.      B. England.      C. Russia       D. Canada.

C. the author couldn’t fall asleep without being read to

A. think clearly    B. express herself well    C. speak    D. hear

63. This passage is mainly about________.

A. a strong mother                 B. a family’s disaster   

C. the importance of language        D. the way of teaching language

At the end of eighth grade, our class went to Washington, D.C. For a group of 14-year-olds, this was a big deal!

The first day was so tiring: we could hardly remember where we were off to see monuments（纪念碑）, starting with Washington, Lincoln and Jefferson. We walked along the paths through trees. Then the Wall came into view－the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.

As I inched closer to the Wall, I heard a bagpipe（风笛）in the distance, which seemed to show respect to the lives lost in the jungles of Vietnam.

We continued walking and felt surprised at the number of names carved（雕刻）in the black stone. I was determined to find a soldier with my last name, but my hunt was stopped when a man caught my eyes. He was kneeling（跪着）at the Wall, a single rose at his feet. His head was bowed and he was rubbing（摩擦）his fingers over one name. I thought how sad he was, and then moved on.

After a few minutes I found one with my last name, but my eyes returned to the kneeling man. He was still rubbing his fingers over the same name. He never knew I was watching him, lost in deep sorrow. It was time for me to leave the kneeling man and the Wall. On the way home, I couldn’t help thinking man and the Wall. On the way home, I couldn’t help thinking of the kneeling man and his sad face. I wasn’t sure of the effects of was before, but at that moment I realized how much that man suffered from losing his loved one. Maybe he was the only one of so many families who experienced the same.

I never knew the full effects of war until I saw that man. I only know about war from history classes. The kneeling man taught me more about war and the effects it has on people than any history book.
