Beside the web camera system with your computer, we have a new high-tech way to solve the problem and ease your pain of missing them.The Japanese company Combiwith created a system“talking picture”. It makes people in pictures speak!The “talking picture” has a special pen. It is actually a pen-shaped scanner. It can scan information in specialmade pictures. A connected player will then play the information out loud.First, you need to take a picture and record what you want to say with the company. The company will then make special barcodes onto your picture (you cant see those codes). Those codes are your voice and your words. When you hold up the pen to scan your picture with barcodes, a player connected to the pen will start to play. It plays things youve recorded. That way the invention makes the “you” in the picture speak!Do you want your friends and families talking out of pictures? Have them make pictures like that, and you can hear them whenever you want, only with the “talking picture” system. The system can play messages for up to 12 minutes.“The pictures would be useful for those who hope to hear the voice of someone living far away,” said Mayumi Fuji, a spokeswoman for the company. “Grandparents, for example, longing to know about their grandchildren would be happy to hear their voice when they see the picture,” Fuji said.But it is troublesome to go to the company for taking a special picture first. And, it is much more expensive than using a telephone. The photo with barcodes costs between 17,040 and 17,990 yen(160 and 169 dollars). The larger picture you want, the more you pay.Now, just raise a finger, lonely people can have their loved ones speak out of pictures. But, whether the “talking picture” is practical or not, lets wait and see.91 What does “talking pictures” mean according to this article?92 AThe picture can play whats been recorded as if the person in the picture “talks”.93 BYou can have a talk with the person in the picture whenever you want to.94 CThe picture can tell you wonderful stories to ease your pain.95 DThe picture can tell whats on your mind when you are looking at it.96 If you want to make a talking picture, you need _.97 Ato take a picture and record what you want to say with the company.98 Bto make special barcodes onto your picture.99 Ca penshaped scanner to go with the picture.100 DAll of the above.101 Which of the following is NOT true accordingly?102 AThe talking picture system can play messages for 12 minutes at most.103 BIt will cost you more to take a larger talking picture.104 CIt might take a lot of trouble to make talking picture.105 DYou can make a talking picture by just raising a finger.106 What is the attitude of the author?107 AOptimistic.BUncertain.CPositive.DPessimistic.BAlmost 70 percent of Chinese middle school students have serious problems with their parents, the Beijing Morning Post quoted a survey as saying.The survey showed 6.62 percent of the surveyed students are afraid of their parents while 13.13 percent of them dislike their parents and 56.28 percent were extremely disgusted with or even hate their parents. Only 4.75 percent of the young people surveyed said they like their parents.The recently conducted survey among 3,000 middle school students in a Beijing district asked questions about their attitude toward their parents and family education, the paper said.For many families, conflict between parents and children center on the students school grades, their weight and their friends. The survey showed that parental influence over children is decreasing, the paper said.Xiao Xiao, a third year junior middle school student is perhaps typical of most kids when she complains; I was scolded by my mother because I didnt come first in the class in a mid-term exam.Xiao Xiao in fact is already one of the top students in her class, the paper said, stressing Xiao Xiaos parents hope she can study at the Beijing University or even attend Harvard in the future.Sun Yunxiao, an expert with the China Youth and Children Research Center, said parents expect unrealistically high expectations from their children.The research centres own survey of parents showed about 55 percent of parents hope their children will study for a doctoral degree and 83.6 percent require their children to rank in the top 15 of their class.Conflicts between parents and their children not only come from too high education expectations. Other causes of disconnection between parents and children are family violence, parents old fashioned ideas, interference in a childs privacy including their choice of friends and time spent surfing the web, the paper said.Mr Hu, a father of a middle school student, wasnt surprised by the survey results. He says too much concern over school marks is putting tremendous pressure on families.108 What percentage of the young people surveyed said they like their parents?109 A6.62 percent.B13.13 percent.C56.28 percent.D75 percent110 What is the central conflict between parents and children in many families?111 AParents old fashioned ideas.112 BFamily violence and divorce.113 CStudents school grades, weight and friends.114 DInterference in a childs privacy.115 Xiao Xiao is cited as an example to show that _.116 Aone should study hard to attend Beijing University as a student.117 Bparental influence over children is decreasing.118 Ctodays children spend too much time surfing the web.119 DParents today expect too high from their children, which results in conflict between parents and children.120 As is indicated in the passage, _.121 AMore and more parents have old fashioned ideas.122 BMost parents require their children to be the top ones in the class.123 CMost parents hope their children will attend Harvard in the future.DMore and more families got divorced due to the high education expectations.CNanotechnology is a fashionable word these days. The name “nano”(纳米) comes from the size of molecules, which are measured in nanometersor one billionth of a metre. Through operating the atoms and molecules, scientists can change the nature of common materials and even create new materials that have new properties.But scientists are concerned about its possible risks to our daily lives.Clothing merchants claim their nanocloth keeps our bodies warmer in winter, saving us from needing thick coats. Vitamin companies boast their nanopills are easier to absorb. Home decoration companies suggest you use their nanopaint, which has no smell, is waterproof, and free from poisonous substances.Nanomaterials are making our lives better, its creators say. The US National Science Foundation predicts nanotechnology research will grow into a US $-trillion industry over the next 10 years.But relatively little is known about the potential health and environmental effects of the tiny particles. Just atoms wide, they are small enough to penetrate cells easily in lungs, brains and other organs. US bestseller “Prey”, written by Michael Crichton, paints a doomsday in which a group of tiny nanomachines escapes the lab and threatens to take control of humanity.Studies have shown that some nanoparticles can be poisonous to animal cells. There are fears that exposure can cause breathing problems, since nanoparticles could be taken in through the nose, causing unknown problems to brain cells. Scientist also fear that nanoparticles placed on the skin could damage DNA. “No one knows, and thats the problem,” said Pat Mooney, director of the ETC Group. “People are rubbing them on the skin as sunscreens and as cosmetics.”Mooneys group is calling for products such as sunscreen, that are directly absorbed into the body to be taken off the shelf until theyre proved safe.124 What do you think is nanotechnology is?125 A. It is a fashionable technology that operates the atoms and molecules.126 B. It is a fashionable technology that can be used to create DNA.127 C. It is a fashionable technology that is created by a scientist named Nano.128 D. It is a fashionable technology that combines chemistry with physics.129 What benefits can nanotechnology bring to us except _.130 A. It can allow us to be free from thick coats by wearing clothes made of nano-cloth.131 B. It can allow us to create more new materials to meet the need of our modern society.132 C. It can help us to take control of the doomsday.133 D. It can help us to decorate our homes more environmently friendly.134 Studies have made it clear that _.135 A. exposure to nanoparticles can damage DNA.136 B. rubbing nano cosmetics on the skin can help control skin diseases.137 C. all nanoparticles cant be poisonous to animal cells.138 D. the nanoparticles have bad effects on health and environment.139 What the underlined part “be taken off the shelf” in the last paragraph mean?140 A. Mooneys group recommends that consumers to buy nano products such as sunscreen on the shelf.141 B. Mooneys group suggests that nano products such as sunscreen win a great success on the shelf.142 C. Mooneys group suggests nano products such as sunscreen be sold on shelf instead of on the street.143 D. Mooneys group suggests nano products such as sunscreen be proved safe before they are sold.DInternet users can give websites a thumbs up or thumbs down in less than the blink of an eye, according to a recent study by Canadian researchersSpecifically, a positive or negative decision is made within one-twentieth of a second - less than half the time it takes to blinkIt is also about the time for users to read just one word on the websiteIn the study at the Carleton University in Ottawa, websites were flashed up on a screen for participants to view for 50 milliseconds, and then rated by the viewerLater when the pages were viewed again for longer periods of time, theviewers opinionwere the sameThe study was published in the March/April issue of the journal Behaviour & Information Technology“It really is just a physiological responseIf the first impression is negative, youll probably drive people off,” said DrGitte Lindgard, the leading researcher, “So Web designers have to make sure theyre not offending users visually”However,the results did not show how to win a
