10、?答案解析【主题语境】人与社会:科学与技术科技发展与信息技术,科学精神【解析】 under,考查介词。under the name (of) sth. 的意思为“以为笔名”,因此使用介词under。 using,考查非谓语动词。此处的use与employees是逻辑上的主谓关系,因此用using作伴随状语。 reported,考查时态。句子描述的是过去的事件,且reported与主语Recode构成被动的关系,因此使用一般过去时。 characteristics,考查可数名词复数。此处表示“特征”,因此要把character转换为characteristics,表示“特征”。 operated
11、,考查状语从句中主语和系词的省略。此处完整句式为Once the system is operated, 如果前后主语一致,谓语动词为be动词,就会省略主语和be动词,因此为operated。 previously,考查词性转换。此处表示“先前地,之前地”,因此要把previous转换为副词previously,修饰动词reported。 has tried,考查动词时态。此处This is the first time sb have/has done 表示“这是某人第一次做某事”,因此要用 has tried。 that/which,考查定语从句引导词。这里是一个定语从句,先行词是the
12、companys budding chain,且从句缺少主语,因此要用that/which来引导。 to check,考查不定式。此处用不定式作状语表示目的,“为了让顾客可以办理登记手续。” all,考查代词。此处all over the store表示遍布商店。【译文】据华盛顿邮报9月份的独家报道,这款可以扫描人类手掌而无需触摸的设备,作为一种结账的方式的设备由亚马逊工程师开发,代号为“奥维尔”,未来将在亚马逊旗下的全食超市连锁推出。知情人士透露,亚马逊纽约办公室的员工一直在充当这种生物识别技术的试验品,他们在几台自动售货机上使用这种技术购买汽水、薯片和手机充电器等产品。Recode首先报道
13、了亚马逊周四申请专利的消息,称这款设备将通过手掌的表面特征(如皱纹)以及更深的特征(如静脉)来识别用户。一旦运行,该系统将允许拥有亚马逊Prime账户的顾客在商店扫描自己的手,并将其与自己的信用卡或借记卡连接起来。正如华盛顿邮报之前报道的那样,这项技术的精确度仅为万分之一的1%,但亚马逊的工程师们一直在努力将其提高到1%的百万分之一。这并不是亚马逊第一次尝试让购物体验变得尽可能简单。该公司去年推出的“Go”便利连锁店让顾客可以使用手机应用程序在旋转门处办理登机手续。多亏了计算机视觉和遍布商店的传感器阵列,他们可以在不通过收银台的情况下装满他们的包并把它们带出去。课后练习(A)In the pa
