以下是相關人物信息,請將相關的人物信息與他們需要的課程匹配起來。
1.Eva will become an English teacher in September this year. Before working as a teacher, she wants to get some training and learn some modem teaching methods.
2.Joe lives with his mother near Fircroft College. His mother is too poor to afford his education. So he intends to find a course which offers free accommodation, meals and tuition.
3.Linda who majors in English plans to write a thesis about Anglo-Saxon people, including their life and history. Recently she has been collecting information about them.
4.Li Lei is going to finish his senior middle school and plans to study biochemical engineering at a world-famous college. So he decides to learn more about it during the summer vacation.
5. Wang Li is a reporter. She is asked to write a passage about Asia and Middle East. Because she isn’t familiar with them at all, she has to learn about them.
Dr. Glenn Tisman, a cancer specialist, knew his young neighbor, Ray Bateman, had an unusual mind. But he had no idea at the time that 12 - year – old Ray had the ability to become his partner in cancer research.
Ray’s parents remembered that at age four, Ray surprised them by fixing a broken vacuum cleaner(吸塵器). When he was ten, he speedily constructed the family color television from a kit. Later, he succeeded in assembling(組裝) a complex stereo system after two experts had failed to do the job.
When Ray was ten, he convinced his parents to buy him a computer. In a short time, Ray was able to do amazing things with the computer. Ray shared his enthusiasm for computers with Dr. Tisman, who used a computer for his research. The two discussed computers and medicine frequently. Amazingly, Ray understood the biology and chemistry related to Dr. Tisman’s medical research without any previous instruction.
Ray then worked with Dr. Tisman after school. He helped conduct research with the equipment and kept it in working order. The purpose of the research was to test the effectiveness of mixing an old cancer drug with certain vitamins. Ray analyzed patient test results by computer, while Dr. Tisman handled all patient contact. Together, they came up with solid research that helped advance cancer treatment.
In 1988, 14 - year - old Ray went with Dr. Tisman to a meeting of the American Federation for Clinical Research(AFCR), where Ray presented their initial research findings. Using terminology(術語) beyond the grasp of most kids his age, Ray told the scientists how the new drug mixture caused fewer and milder side effects for cancer patients.
A year later, Ray returned to the meeting to update the findings of his and Dr. Tisman’s research. By then, he had become well - known for his devotion to finding cures for sick patients. Stories about him appeared in hundred of newspapers around the world. He appeared on television newscasts and talk shows.
Ray continued to spend most free hours working with Dr. Tisman. The two began studying the effects of vitamins on babies inside the womb(子宮). However, Ray’s main interest remained cancer treatment, and he continues his research today.
1.According to the passage, Ray______.
A. is a boy of many gifts
B. is very helpful to his parents
C. learned fast under Dr. Tisman’s instruction
D. stopped working with Dr. Tisman after his success
2.What do we know about Dr. Tisman?
A. He succeeded in finding cures for cancer.
B. He made a new discovery in cancer treatment.
C. He convinced Ray to become a partner of him.
D. He taught Ray knowledge related to his research.
3.What made Ray first known to the medical world?
A. His presentation at AFCR. B. His great skills in computer.
C. His devotion to cancer research. D. His appearance on television newscasts.
4. Dr. Tisman’s research is aimed at ______.
A. providing different cancer treatments
B. proving the effects of vitamins on babies
C. finding the side effects of a cancer drug
D. testing the effectiveness of a new drug mixture
Teachers have to constantly update their knowledge in order to maintain their professional ________.
A.consequence B.independence
C.competence D.intelligence
Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic school in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated(展示)a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.
In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
“our brain has billions of nerve ceils. These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓)to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”
The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(頭皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”
He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to make sure that they can use the technology over long periods of time.
1.BCI is a technology that can______.
A.help to update computer systems B.link the human brain with computers
C.help the disabled to recover D.control a person's thoughts
2.How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?
A.By controlling his muscles. B.By talking to the machine
C.By moving his hand. D.By using his mind.
3.Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
A.scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair B.computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
C.scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair D.cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
4.The team will test with real patients to _____ .
A.make profits from them B.prove the technology useful to them
C.make them live longer D.learn about their physical condition
5.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A.Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
B.New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C.BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D.Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries
