Unconditional LoveCBeethoven famously composed several masterpieces while he was deaf, but surely even he would be impressed with this piece of researchA group led by BCI expert Gernot Muller-Putz shows that experiences of quite a different tone can be sounded from BCL. Adapting from an established BCI method which mainly enables disabled people to write, the team has developed a new application by which music can be composed and transferred(转录) onto a musical score(乐谱) , just through the power of thought. All you need is a special cap which measures brain waves, the adapted BCI, a software for composing music, and of course a bit of musical knowledgeThe basic principle of the BCI method used can be briefly described: various options, such as letters or notes, pauses, chords, etc. flash by one after another in a table. If youve received some training and can focus on the desired option while it lights up on a screen in front of you, you cause a minute change in your brain waves. The BCI recognises this change and draws conclusions about the chosen option.Eighteen test persons bad to think melodies onto a musical score. All test subjects were of sound bodily health during the study and had a certain degree of basic musical and compositional knowledge. Following user-centered design guidelines, researchers investigated the efficiency, the effectiveness and subjective criteria.The subjective criteria evaluation revealed that users were highly satisfied with the application. The results of the BCI compositions can really be heard. And what is more important: the test persons enjoyed it. The very positive results of the study with bodily healthy test persons are the first step in a possible expansion of the BCI composition to patients, stresses Muller-Putz.Twenty years ago, the idea of composing a piece of music using the power of the mind was unimaginable. Now we can do it, but we still need a bit more time before BCl is mature enough for daily applications 28. What do we know about the new application?A. It consists of four parts. B. Its impractical for daily use.C. Its based on a new method. D. Its hard for users to handle.29. What should the test subjects do during the test?A. Watch a screen attentively.B. Listen to the composed melodies.C. Make options by moving their eyes.D. Record their feelings while composing.30. What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The test B. The musical score.C. The study. D. The BCI application31. Who will benefit most from the new application?A. BCI experts. B. Disabled musiciansC. Music studios. D. Learners of music.DClothes play an important role in the conclusions we reach by providing clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearers background, personality, statue, mood and social outlook. Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to win peoples good impression. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the beginning of communication. For example, a middle-class person in plain clothes may be barely grouped by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the persons education, background, or interest.People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyle of girls who wear fancy clothes. Newscasters or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing honest and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And college students who view themselves as taking an active role in their interpersonal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can be aware that the clothing we wear change the way we feel about ourselves and how we act. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you are present at a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.In the workplace, the appearances of men and women are equally important, especially women. How do women gain success in wearing in the business world? They should mix up manliness and womanliness. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also been greater than that available for men. Male administrator tend to judge women more favorably for managerial post when the women display less “womanliness”, grooming shorter hair, slight use of make-up and plain tailored clothing.32. The example in paragraph 1 tells us _.A. clothes decide on peoples personalityB. we shouldnt judge a person by his or her appearanceC. the same taste in clothes makes people grouped easilyD. persons background plays an important part in communication33. What can we learn from the passage?A. Clothing is likely to be a way to attain confidence.B. Adolescent girls dislike their fellow students wearing fancy clothes.C. Newscasters in fancy clothes are regarded to be convincing.D. College students look up to those who are dressed conservatively.34. If a woman applies for the position of a manager, she should wear clothes of _.A. less manlinessB. more womanlinessC. complete manlinessD. less womanliness35. In which column of a journal can you find the passage?A. Fashion.B. Lifestyle.C. Society.D.
