37、ware analyses the images to work out swimmers trajectories. to do this reliably, it has to tell the difference between a swimmer and the shadow of someone being cast onto the bottom or side of the pool. “the underwater environment is a very dynamic one, with many shadows and reflections dancing arou

38、nd.” says mcquade.The software does this by “projecting” a shape in its field of view onto an image of the far wall of the pool. it does the same with an image from another camera viewing the shape from a different angle. if the two projections are in the same position, the shape is identified as a

39、shadow and is ignored. but if they are different, the shape is a swimmer and so the system follows its trajectory.To pick out potential drowning victims, anyone in the water who starts to descend slowly is added to the software's “pre-alert” list, says mcquade. swimmers who then stay immobile on

40、 the pool bottom for 5 seconds or more are considered in danger of drowning. poseidon double-checks that the image really is of a swimmer, not a shadow, by seeing whether it obscures the pool's floor texture when viewed from overhead. if so, it alerts the lifeguard, showing the swimmer's loc

47、ank description of aspens of the lives of Scotlands poor rural farmers. It has been adapted for stage, film, TV and radio in recent decades. The novel is set on the fictional estate of Kinraddie, in the farming country of the Scottish northwest in the years up to and beyond World War l. At its heart

48、 is the story of Chris, who is both part of the community and a little outside it. Grassic Gibbon gives US the most detailed and intimate account of the life of his heroine（女主人公）. We watch her grow through a childhood dominated by her cruel but hard-working father；experience tragedy（her mother's

49、 suicide and murder of her twin children）; and learn about her feelings as she grows into a woman. We see her marry, lose her husband, then marry again. Chris has seemed so convincing a figure to some female readers that they cannot believe that she is the creation of a man. But it would be misleadi

50、ng to suggest that this book is just about Chris. 1t is truly a novel of a place and its people. Its opening section tells of Kinraddie's long history, in a language that imitates the places changing patterns of speech and writing. The story itself is amazingly full of characters and incidents.

51、It is told from Chris point of view but also from that of the gossiping community, a community where everybody knows eye, body elses business and nothing is ever forgotten. Sunset Song has a social theme too. It is concerned with what Grassic Gibbon perceives as the destruction of traditional Scotti

52、sh rural life first by modernization and then by World War l. Gibbon tried hard to show how certain characters resist the war. Despite this, the war takes the young men away, a number of them to their deaths. In particular, it takes away Chris husband, Ewan Tavendale. The war finally kills Ewan, but

53、 not in the way his widow is told. In fact, the Germans arent responsible for his death, but his own side. He is shot because he is said to have run away from a battle. If the novel is about the end of one way of life it also looks ahead. It is a “Sunset Song” but is concerned too with the new Kinra

54、ddie, indeed of the new European world. Grassic Gibbon went on to publish two other novels about the place that continue its story. 36What is Sunset Song mainly about? AThe First World War. BThe beauty of the sunset. CThe new European world. DThe lives of rural Scottish farmers. 37Which statement is

55、 NOT true of Chris? A She is the heroine of Sunset Song. B She had a miserable childhood. C She is the creation of a man. D She married only once. 38What is the opening section of the novel mainly concerned with? AThe climate of Kinraddie. BThe history of Kinraddie. CThe geography of Kinraddie. DThe

56、 language spoken in Kinraddie. 39Who killed Chris' husband, Ewan? AHis own troops. BThe French army CThe Germans. . DThe Russian soldiers. 40The word “Sunset” in the title of this novel most probably meansAthe end of the heroine's life. Bthe end of the story. Cthe end of the traditional way

57、of life. Dthe end of the day. 第三篇Centers of the Great European CitiesThe centers of the great cities of Europe are meeting places by tradition. People gather there to drink coffee and chat late into the night. A mixture of locals and tourists make for an exciting. metropolitan（大都市的）atmosphere. Squar

58、es, plazas（广场）and arcades（拱廊）form the heart of Europe's cities. Venice in Italy has the Piazza San Marco - a beautiful square surrounded by shops, churches, restaurants and cafes. In Barcelona, Spain, La Bosqueria is a lively market with hundreds of stalls selling all kinds of goods. London'

59、s Covent Garden is filled with fruit and vegetable stalls by day and musicians, acrobats（杂技演员）and artists by night. The government buildings at the center of many cities often are architecturally impressive. In London, they serve as a beautiful backdrop（背景）to the coffee tables that line the streets

60、and the banks of the Thames. These vibrant（有活力的）hearts are the product of centuries of evolution, social historian Joel Garreau told US News and World Report recently. “The reason people think Venice is so great today is you dont see all the mistakes,” said Garreau. “Those have all been removed.” Mo

61、st European cities were laid out before the invention of the car, so bars, restaurants and cafes were near to peoples homes. Today, the focus of many Europeans' life has moved away from the centers. They live in the suburbs and outskirts, driving to supermarkets to get their supplies. But on a c

62、ontinent where people treasure convention there are still those who hold onto traditional ways, living and shopping locally. These people, together with tourists, provide the city centers with their reason for existence. Coffee culture plays a part in keeping these city centers flourishing. This is

63、particularly true of Paris whose citizens are famous enthusiastic conversationalists. This skill is developed over many hours spent chaffing over espressos（浓咖啡）and cigarettes. Religion also plays a role in developing sociable atmosphere. People in Roman Catholic countries used to visit the Church on

64、 an almost daily basis. Entire communities would gather in the same building and then move out to the markets, cafés and bars in the surrounding streets. An enormous example of this relationship between church and society is the Duomo. The huge marble cathedral in Florence, Italy is surrounded

65、by bakeries and coffee shops, and caters（迎合）not only to the tourist crowds, but also the local community. 41It can be inferred from the first paragraph that each big city in EuropeA has many large squares.B has many very magnificent sky-scrapers.C draws tourists in large numbers every yeanD has a center where tourists meet th
