BThrough a keyboard.CThrough the voice of users.DThrough multimodal interfaces.18We can infer from the passage that a persons emotion_.Avaries from time to time Bis determined by his own personalityCplays an important role in normal speechDmakes people uncomfortable when one is speaking19What conclusion can we draw from the last paragraph?AEmotionsensitive computers can talk freely as human beings.BIt will be difficult for people to use emotionsensitive computers.CEmotionsensitive computers have been widely used in teaching.DIt will be common for people to use emotionsensitive computers in the future.短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号()，并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词。2只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。Though great progress have been made in science these years，there are still many people live in poor conditions.They make their lives by collecting or selling used things.Their children cannot go to school because they did not haveenough money to send their children there.How do you think so many people still suffer from poverty now？The answer lies on the populat
