24、   Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to deal with kinds of situations.

Love plays an important role in our lives. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could be cruel. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted(认为理所应当) . It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others' feelings.

Happiness achieved by bringing a smile on other' s face gives a certain level of fulfillment(成就). Peace of mind makes you feel happy. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are sad. Sadness comes from the death of a loved one or the failure. But all of these things will pass away.

Failure is the way to success, and it helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect.

Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds on patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day.

Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dull. So what we can choose is to work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.

25、   Scientist Stephen Hawking had to work really hard to speak．He chose letters and words from a screen controlled by movements of a muscle in his cheek．However，the slow system he used might soon be replaced．With a very different approach，doctors have found a way to get a person’s speech directly from their brain.

The system uses brain-reading software．It works only for sentences it has been trained on. Doctors at the University of California in San Francisco (UCSF) set out to create a better product， which allows people who are paralyzed (瘫痪的) to communicate more quickly than Hawking’s device，which uses muscle twitches(抽搐)to control a keyboard.

The Study of Brain Activity

The work was possible thanks to three patients．They had epilepsy(癫痫症)．This is a condition that has something to do with the nerves．It causes seizures(痉挛)．This is when their body suddenly moves on its own．They were about to have surgery(外科手术)for their condition.

Before their surgery，they had a small device placed on their brain for at least a week．It was used to map their seizures.The patients could speak normally，and they agreed to take part in Doctor Chang’s study．The doctor used the devices to record brain activity while each patient was asked nine questions．The patients were also asked to read a list of 24 possible responses.

Using the recordings，Chang and his team built computer models．The models learned to match patterns of brain activity to the questions the patients heard and the answers they spoke．Once trained，the software could identify questions and responses almost instantly．It used only brain signals．It was correct on what question a patient heard 7 out of 10 times．The software identified what response they gave 6 out of 10 times.

Improving Software to Read More Varied Speech

Even with the breakthrough，there are hurdles ahead．One challenge is to improve the software so it can translate brain signals into a variety of speech．This will require software trained on a huge amount of spoken language and matching brain signals．These signals will be different from one person to another.

Another goal is to read “imagined speech”，or sentences spoken in the mind．The system in the study detects brain signals that are sent to move the mouth．However，for some patients these signals may not be enough．More advanced ways of reading sentences in the brain will be needed.

【1】From the passage，we can learn that ______.

A.the three patients with epilepsy have difficulty in speaking

B.Stephen Hawking’s system is controlled by his brain signals

C.the patients chose from nine responses to answer 24 questions

D.the brain-reading software can only recognize a few sentences now

【2】What does the word hurdles in paragraph 6 mean?

A.Risks． B.Difficulties.

C.Possibilities． D.Disadvantages.

【3】The purpose of the last two paragraphs is to _______.

A.tell us the disadvantages of the software

B.present the possible future of the software

C.explain the process of designing the software

D.show the author’s opinion toward the software

【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.Different devices to help paralyzed people to communicate.

B.Different ways to develop software that can help paralyzed people.

C.Doctors have started to explore software to read people’s brain signals.

D.The study showed the system could translate brain signals into a variety of speech.

26、People don’t mind if you put your elbows or arms on the table when you are not eating. But once you have started eating, you should only rest your forearms(前臂) on the table.

29、You’re minding your own business. Suddenly, you look up to see your big brother coming towards you. He’s giggling(痴笑) from ear to ear. His arms are stretched out, fingers shaking slightly. You try to get away, but there’s no way to ________. Before you know it, he’s tickling(抓痒逗笑) you, and you can’t stop laughing.

Most of us don’t like to be tickled. We try everything to move our way out of a tickle. Yet no matter how much we dislike being tickled, we always end up laughing.

Why do people laugh when they are tickled? That’s ________ scientist Christine Harris of San Diego, California, wanted to find out. First, Harris and her friends needed to practice. They spent some time tickling each other. Then they gathered a group of students who were ready to be tickled in the name of science.

Next, Harris’s team ________ how hard the students laughed at different TV show. They wanted to know about that type of laughter which is different from laughter caused by tickling. Then the team tickled the student volunteers under the arms and on the toes(脚趾). As part of the research, Harris’s team even used a tickle machine with parts that ________ shaking fingers!

What were the results of this tickling research? Harris’s team found that people do not laugh because tickling is funny. People simply cannot stop themselves from laughing when they are tickled. The scientist decided that ticklish laughter may be a special kind of action. This action happens ________ a person’s control or effort.

So, have all questions about tickling been answered? Has Harris tickled her last toe? It’s unlikely. It seems that humans are not the only living things that giggle when they are tickled. Young chimpanzees also ________ to tickle one another during their play. They, too, seem to chuckle (吃吃地笑) also when they are tickled.
