Want a glance of the future of health care? Take a look at the way the various networks of people about patient care are being connected to one another,and how this new connectivity is being used to deliver medicine to the patient no matter where he or she may be.

Online doctors offering advice based on normal symptoms (症状) are the most obvious example. Increasingly,however,remote diagnosis (远程诊断) will be based on real physiological data (生理数据) from the actual patient. A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using personal data assistance plus a mobile phone,it is perfectly practical to send a patient's important signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipment,the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.

Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster need especially after earthquakes. On the whole,the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and experts' opinions.

But there is one problem.Bandwidth (宽带) is the limiting factor for sending complex (复杂的) medical pictures around the world CT photos being one of the biggest bandwidth users. Communication satellites may be able to deal with the shortterm needs during disasters such as earthquakes or wars. But medicine is looking towards both the secondgeneration Internet and thirdgeneration mobile phones for the future of remote medical service.

Doctors have met todiscuss computerbased tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications,the new technologies should start a new time when telemedicine and sharing of medical information,experts' opinions and diagnosis are common.

C.communication satellites can only deal with shortterm needs

D.there is not enough equipment for spreading the medical care

【题目】B

It was a normal school day for senior Solymar Solis until an unexpected visitor arrived. Her dad, Sgt. Carlos Solis Melendez, surprised her by coming home early from Kuwait and visiting her unannounced at Spring Valley High School in South Carolina.

After serving in Kuwait for nine months, Melendez returned home a week earlier than his daughter expected. He held balloons and flowers in a classroom as he sat at a student’s desk to blend in with the crowd. "It came across my mind like, ‘How is she going to react?," he recalled(回忆) the heartwarming moment. "Is she going to be happy and run to me and hug me, or cry? That was all going on through my mind."

As unsuspecting Solymar entered the classroom, she was soon overcome with emotion, immediately bursting into tears and covering her mouth. She didn’t talk. She was just crying. She was overwhelmed with everything. She thought it was a dream.

Melendez was a single parent so while he was deployed (调度), he got his sister to live with his daughter. When he was coming back and talking to his sister, both of them came to the conclusion that they should do something special for his daughter. Melendez and his sister got in touch with the school, and they planned this whole being-in-the-classroom thing, and it turned out perfect.

The two are very much looking forward to some good daddy-daughter time now that he’s home. "It means everything," Melendez said of being able to surprise his daughter this way. "After all the sacrifices she’s made, she deserves all the special arrangements and special occasions and celebrations. I’ll do anything for my daughter. I believe I’m doing good parenting."

【1】 How did Solymar feel at first when entering the classroom?
