ray kurzweil is the author of the successful book the age of intelligent machines. he is also one of the worlds best computer research scientists. he is researching the possibilities.kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices. an example of this is ramona, the virtual hostess of kurzweils website, created by the computer, who is able to understand what you say. visitors to the website can have their own conversations with her. ramona also dances and sings.kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical problems. one of his ideas is a “seeing machine”. this will be “like a friend that could describe what is going on around,” he explains. blind people will use a sensor（传感器）which will probably be built into a pair of sunglasses. this machine will describe to the person everything it sees.another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the “listening machine”. this invention will recognize millions of words and understand any speaker. the listening machine will also be able to translate what it hears into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it.but it is not just about helping people with physical problems. looking further into future, kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to store what we hear, see and think in a computer. this technology probably wont be ready for at least 50 years, but when it arrives, it means our minds will be able to live forever.cmany centuries ago, birthdays were considered a time when the bad spirits were able to harm you. it was believed that you should have your friends and family around you so that their good wishes and present-giving would keep the bad spirits away. people also believed that, by lighting candles, they were sending a signal or wishes to the gods.later on, candles started to be used on birthday cakes. one story about the beginnings of the birthday cake is that it started with the greeks, who made round cakes standing for the full moon for their moon goddess（女神）. they also placed candles on the cake to make it light, again like the moon.however, the germans are said to have first used cakes and candles. they used a sweet cake and they put a large candle in the centre of the cake to mean “the light of life”.the “happy birthday” song is more than a hundred years old. the music was written in 1893 by two sisters, patty and mildred hill, who were schoolteachers in louisville, kentucky. the music was first used as a morning greeting to their students with the title, “good morning to all”. in 1935, the words legally belonged to the hill sisters, and the copyright（版权）has been bought and sold for millions of dollars ever since. the present copyright is owned by warner communications. they bought it in 1989 for more than $22 million.66. the text mainly talks about .a. the ways of making cakes b. the customs of lighting candlesc. the beginnings of birthdays d. the history of the birthday song67. people celebrated birthdays many centuries ago to .a. have a great dinner b. get birthday presentsc. light birthday candles d. keep the bad spirits away68. why did the greeks put candles on the cake?a. to light up the dark room. b. to make the cake beautiful.c. to see where the cake was. d. to make it look like the moon.69. when was the music written?a. in 1893. b. in 1913. c. in 1935. d. in 1989.70. who is the present owner of the song “happy birthday”?a. patty and mildred hill. b. warner communications.c. a greek cake company. d. a german schoolteacher.dkept inside on a rainy day?
