11、 was just an average high school athlete.There was every indication that she was just another American teenager without much of a future.However,one person wants to change this.Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly Ann as a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginning

12、 of true greatness.Her time were not exactly impressive, but even so,he seemed there was something trying to get out,something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking.He decided to offer Shelly Ann a place in his very strict training seasons. Their cooperati

13、on quickly produced results,and a few year later at Jamaicas Olympic games in early 2008,Shelly Ann,who at that time only ranked number 70 in the world,beat Jamaicas unchallenged queen of the sprint（短跑）.Where did she come from?asked an astonished sprinting world,before concluding that she must be on

14、e of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time,only to disappear again without signs.But Shelly Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one-hit wonder.At the Beijing Olympic she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman eve

15、r to win the 100 meters Olympic gold.She did it again one year on at the World Championship in Briton,becoming world champion with a time of 10.73the fourth record ever.Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile.She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance. Her journey to becoming

16、 the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless,She grew up in one of Jamaicas toughest inner-city communities known as Waterhouse,where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother and two brothers.Waterhouse,one of the poorest communities in Jam

17、aica,is a really violent and overpopulated place.Several of Shelly-Anns friends and family were caught up in the killings;one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived.Sometimes her family didnt have enough to eat.She ran at the school championships barefooted because

18、 she couldnt afford shoes.Her mother Maxime,one of a family of fourteen,had been an athlete herself as a young girl but,like so many other girls in Waterhouse,had to stop after she had her first baby.Maximes early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ens

19、ure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouses roundabout of poverty.One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track,and she was ready to sacrifice everything.It didnt take long for Shelly-Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse.On a sum

20、mer evening in Beijing in 2008,all those long,hard hours of work and commitment finally bore fruit.The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty,surrounded by criminals and violence,had written a new chapter in the history of sports.But Shelly-Anns victory was far great

21、er than that.The night,she won Olympic gold in Beijing,the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the neighbouring streets stopped.The dark cloud above one of the worlds toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared for a few days.“I have so much fire burning for my country,”Shelly

22、 said.She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse.She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons.She intends to fight to make it a womans as well as a mans world.As Muhammad Ali puts it,Champions arent made in gyms.Champions

23、 are made from something they have deep inside them.A desire,a dream,a vision.One of the things Shelly-Ann can be proud of is her understanding of this truth.1、Why did Stephen Francis decide to coach Shelly-Ann?AHe had a strong desire to free her family from trouble.BHe sensed a great potential in h

27、 - is something that only existed in the days of British high society. But thanks to etiquette (礼仪) expert and author William Hanson, we realize that little has changed during the past 100 years.In a BBC radio program, Hanson released a list of common words used in British English that could reveal

28、whether a person is “common” or “fashionable”.And yet here comes the interesting part: While some of us might go through life using fancy words, dressing in ways that make us appear more well-off than we really are, there are wealthy people in the world who try to hide their riches because they want

29、 to be seen as “normal” instead of “showy”.Beatrice, for example, is a New Yorker who inherited (继承) millions of dollars. She told The New York Times that she has a habit of removing the price tags from her clothes so her house staff dont see them and feel uncomfortable.“We dont want that Wow.” said

30、 Scott, also a New Yorker, who had just inherited over $50 million. “Were just not the type of people who wear it on our sleeve.”1、What does William Hanson find?APeople failed to judge others manner.BPeople meet impolite persons frequently.CPeople tend to use more polite words.DPeople judge others b

The features most commonly used to identify people are face

40、s, voices, finger prints and retinal scans. But their “behavioural biometrics”, such as the way they walk, are also giveaways.Researchers have, for several years, used video cameras and computers to analyse peoples gaits, and are now quite good at it. But translating such knowledge into a practical

41、identification system can be tricky-especially if that system is supposed to be hidden. Cameras are often visible, are hard to set up, requi5re good lighting and may have their view blocked by other people. So a team led by Krikor Ozanyan of the University of Manchester, in England and Patricia Scul

42、ly of the National University of Ireland, in Galway have been looking for a better way to recognize gait. Their answer: pressure-sensitive mats.In themselves, such mats are nothing new. They have been part of security systems for donkeys years. But Dr. Ozanyan And Dr. Scully use a complex version th

43、at can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across it. These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker. Dr. Ozanyan and Dr. Scully therefore turned, as is now common for anything to do with pattern recognition, to an Artificial Intelligence system that us

44、es machine learning to recognize such patterns.It seems to work. In a study published earlier this year the two researchers tested their system on a database of footsteps trodden by 127 different people. They found that its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere 0.7%. And Dr. Scully says t

45、hat even without a database of footsteps to work with the system can determine someones sex-women and men, with wide and narrow pelvises(骨盆) respectively, walk in different ways,- and guess, with reasonable accuracy, a subjects age.A mat-based gait-recognition system has the advantage that it would

46、work in any lighting conditions-even pitch-darkness. And though it might fail to identify someone if, say, she was wearing stilettos and had been entered into the database while wearing trainers, it would be very hard to fool it by imitating the gait of an individual who was allowed admission to a p

47、articular place.The latest phase of Dr. Ozanyans and Dr. Scullys project is a redesign of the mat. The old mats contained individual pressure sensors. The new ones contain optical fibres(光纤). Light-emitting diodes(二极管) distributed along two neighbouring edges of a mat transmit light into the fibres.

48、 Sensors on the opposite edges( and thus the opposite ends of the optical fibres) measure how much of that light is received. Any pressure applied to part of the mat causes a distortion(变形) in the fibres and a consequent change in the amount of light transmitted. Both the location and amount of chan

49、ge can be plotted and analyzed by the machine-learning system.Dr. Ozanyan says that the team have built a demonstration fibre-optic mat, two meters long and a metre wide, using materials that cost 100($130). They are now talking to companies about commercializing it. One application might be in heal

50、th care, particularly for the elderly. A fibre-optic mat installed in a nursing home or an old persons own residence could monitor changes in an individuals gait that warn certain illnesses. That would provide early warning of someone being at greater risk of falling over, say, or of their cognition

51、 becoming damaged.Gait analysis might also be used ass a security measure in the workplace, monitoring access to restricted areas, such as parts of military bases, server farms or laboratories dealing with harmful materials. In these cases, employees would need to agree to their gaits being scanned,

52、 just as they would agree to the scanning of their faces or retinas for optical security systems.Perhaps the most fascinating use of gait-recognition mats, though, would be in public places, such as airports. For that to work, the footsteps of those to be recognized would need to have been stored in

53、 a database, which would be harder to arrange than the collection of mugshots and fingerprints that existing airport security systems rely on. Some people, however, might volunteer for it. Many aircrew or pre-registered frequent flyers would welcome anything that speeded up one of the most tiresome

54、parts of modern travel.1、Camera-based gait recognition fails to come into wide use, because _.a. its not easy to find the camerasb. finger print recognition is still popularc. sometimes the cameras can be coveredd. its a waste of money to fix the equipmente. good lighting conditions cant be guarante

The clinic is in northern Massachusetts, about two hours f

58、rom our home on Cape Cod. I expected it would be terrible depressing but its just the opposite. I have been so surprised at what I have learned there.Now I believe happiness is something to love in any form. If Ive ever know an angel, it is Keri, Eddies technician. Both Eddie and I are under her lov

59、ing care. She gives Eddie his medicines.She gives me emotional guidance as well.I can offer tell when its someones first visit. Theyre usually crying. I think the reason why the rest of us dont cry has nothing to do with hope. I think it has to do with another ingredient of happiness. When we think

Keri, in her prayerful voice says, “Focus on loving Eddie right now.” “Right now” is the only way people think at he clinic.Instant connection is what happens in the waiting room.
