  The pleasures which a movie film offers to our eyes have been paid for with the loss of sight of a man whose name is hardly known outside the annals(编年史)of science——Joseph Plateau, a Belgian professor born in Brussels in 1801.

  He studied the mechanism of sight, beginning a series of most dangerous experiments at the age of 28 by staring into the sun for 25 seconds to see what the effect on his eyes would be. He was blind for nearly a month. But he went on experimenting, increasing the length of time during which he looked into the sun, knowing that in the end this would cost him his sight. At the age of 42 he was completely and incurably blind; the sun had destroyed the retina(视网膜)of his eyes. But he continued to work as well as he could until he died at the age of 82.

  Science profited(获益于)enormously from this research. He studied the so-called inertia(惯性)of the eye, which makes a picture remain on the retina for about one-sixth of a second after it has disappeared from our vision. This means that, if we see a succession of individual pictures each of which appears only for a fraction of a second, they“overlap(重叠)”one another in our brain; and if they show consecutive(连续的)phases(定相)of movement, that movement will appear to us continuous.

(1)The images that we see are recorded in ________.

[  ]

A.the brain        B.the eye

C.the retina of the eye    D.the pupil

(2)Motion pictures ________.

[  ]

A.cause inertia of the eye

B.show a succession of unrelated movements

C.show consecutive phases of movement which appear continuous

D.show each phrase of movement for on-half of a second

(3)Scientific advancements are often the result of ________.

[  ]

A.losing individual happiness for experimentation

B.the usage of machines

C.some scientists' crazy action

D.doing dangerous work

(4)Which of the following is true?

[  ]

A.Joseph Plateau was very famous.

B.Joseph Plateau, who was born in Belgium, was a professor.

C.Seeing films will lose our sight.

D.A picture remains on the retina for about one-fourth of a second.

C
An old story goes as follows.King took another wife, who had a magic mirror. The queen often asked the mirror, “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of all?” The mirror answered “You, Queen, are the fairest of all,” and the Queen was content, because she knew the mirror could speak nothing but the truth.
Inspired by the fairy tale, a New York-based designer has come up with a mirror equipped with infrared (红外线的) technology that sends a live video to any cell phone, e-mail account or personal digital assistant (PDA) device selected by a shopper.
Christopher Enrich, chief technology officer for digital design company IconNicholson, said putting these mirrors outside store fitting rooms meant women could go shopping with their friends — even they are far apart.
“She could be in Paris, your mom, watching you try on your wedding dress(while you are in New York),” Enright told Reuters Tuesday as he exhibited the interactive (互动的)mirror at a  trade show.
Using the interactive mirror, a shopper’s friends can then text message back with comments about the clothes being tried on.
Shoppers can also use touch screens on the three-paneled (面板) mirror to choose matching shoes or accessories (配件), Enright said.
The left-hand panel has a touch screen that allows a customer to select a different suit from a database, and then see how it looks on her in the center mirror without physically putting the clothes on.
The right-hand panel has a screen offering more information about other shoes or accessories the shopper also might like.
Enright said teenagers were already using their cell phones to send pictures to their friends when they were out shopping.“This is ...adding technology to something we already do,” Enright said.
66.The interactive mirror mentioned in the text ______.
A.involves modern technology and great advantages
B.allows women shoppers to select clothes at home
C.was displayed and sold well at a trade show
D.spares people’s trouble of going shopping
67.Which is the most possible order according to the passage?
① Shoppers’ friends or relatives text message back with comments.
② Mirrors send a live video to any mobile phone, e-mail account or PDA.
③ Consumers make a final decision.
④ Shoppers try on the clothes.
A.①②③④        B.④③②①  C.②①④③    D.④②①③
68.From the passage we can conclude that ______.
A.the interactive mirrors will surely promote sales on a large scale
B.the designer of the mirror has profited a lot from the invention
C.the new shopping technology would cater to fashion hunters
D.the digital mirrors will replace all traditional fitting-rooms
69.Which of the following descriptions about the touch screen is true?
A.It enables a shopper to order a suit which is not available now.
B.It allows shoppers to “try on” chosen clothes without putting them on.
C.The touch screens are distributed on three more panels.
D.It provides information merely about shoes and accessories.
70.What is the text mainly about?
A.The great influence of a fairy tale.
B.The development of the interactive mirror.
C.Working principles of a digital product.
D.Technology added to traditional products.
