20、ay she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to45 . It wasnt until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46her habit of finding fault.

27、rriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year, including the Marriott Detroit Airport hotel. (Ive tested the app itself but not for a real visit quite yet.) here is the basic idea: you download the iPhone or Android app. The night before, you can “check-in” virtually. When yo

When I left, I was equally impressed with the fast check-out: An agent meets you in the lobby with, an iPad and asks for an email to use for a receipt. The big advantage: you never have to wait in line.Radisson LaCrosseThe Radiss

Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents comer store(街角商店)with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CR
35、F seems to be a smart idea, thats because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levis and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.T

40、on native of Brownsville, Texas, Mildred Garza never planned to move away. Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to help their children, she politely refused. Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms Garza finally say yes. That was four years ago. Today all three gen
41、erations regard the move as a success, giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to adult children and grandchildren. Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. Even Pr

44、ant family is and how important it is to be near them, especially when youre raising children.”Moving is not for everyone. Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices, but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead. Having yo

D Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send orders to
49、 machines. Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, showed a small robotic wheelchair directed by a persons thoughts. In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right han
50、d. He could even talk as he watched the wheelchair and guided it with his thoughts. “Our brain has billions of nerve cells(神经细胞). These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓)to the muscles(肌肉) to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak elec
51、trical signals from reaching the muscles.”Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with outside world and also to control the machine.” The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮)and sends them to a computer. The
52、 computer understands the signals and directs the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that recognize objects in its path. They help the computer react to orders from the brain. Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that understands
53、brain signals and turns them into simple orders. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be divided into two kinds: communication, and controlling the machine. One example is this wheelchair.” He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patient
54、s, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to ensure that they can use the technology over long periods of time.67. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?A. By using his mind. B. By talking to the machine.C. By moving his hand. D. By contro
55、lling his muscles.68. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?A. scalpcapcomputerwheelchairB. computercapscalpwheelchairC. scalpcomputercapwheelchairD. capcomputerscalpwheelchair69. The team will test with real patients to _.A. make profits from themB. make them
56、 live longerC. prove the technology useful to themD. learn about their physical condition70. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Switzerland, the BCI Research CenterB.
