  • Not many years ago, a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson lived alone in a village in the south of England. He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries. When he was seventy-five,he gave 1200 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children’s playground. As a result of his kindness,many people came to visit him. Among them was a newspaperman. During their talk,Johnson remarked that he was seventy-five and expected to live to be a hundred. The newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at seventy-five.Johnson had a sense of humour(幽默).He liked whisky(威士忌酒)and drank some each day.“I have an injection(注射)in my neck each evening,”he told the newspaperman,thinking of his evening glass of whisky. The newspaperman did not understand what Johnson meant. In his newspaper he reported that Johnson was seventy-five and had a daily injection in his neck. Within a week Johnson received thousands of letters from all over Britain,asking him for the secret of his daily injection.

    1. When Johnson said he had an injection in his neck each evening,he really meant that______.

    Ahe drank a glass of whisky in the evening

    Bhe needed an injection in the neck

    Ca daily injection in the evening would make him sleep well

    Dthere was something wrong with his neck

  • The next time you try for a high-ranking post,you could let your possible boss listen to a recommending (推荐)phone call“made”by US President George W.Bush or British Prime Minister Tony Blair. Of course,neither of them could really do that for you—you would just“borrow”their voices. AT & T labs will start selling speech software that it says is so good at reproducing the sounds of a human voice that it can recreate voices and even bring the voices of long-dead famous people back to life. The software,which turns printed text into speech,makes it possible for a company to use recordings of a person's voice to say things that the person never actually said. Possible customers for the software,which is priced in the thousands of dollars,includes telephone call centers,companies that make software that reads digital(数字的)files aloud,and makers of automated voice devices(装置).The advances raise several problems. Who,for example,owns the rights to a famous person’s voice? Some experts even believe that new contracts(合同)will be drawn that include voice-licensing clauses. And although scientists say the technology is not yet good enough to commit fraud(假冒),would the synthesized(合成的)voices at last be able to trick people into thinking that they were getting phone calls or digital audio recordings from people they know? Even Mr.Fruchterman,one of AT & T labs' possible first customers,said he wondered what the new technology might bring.“Just like you can’t trust photograph any more.”he said,“you won’t be able to trust a voice either.

    2. If the speech software were widely used,______.

    Apeople would no longer believe each other

    Bit would not be necessary to go for a speech by a famous person

    Cno radio or TV broadcasters would be needed

    Drecording of a voice alone would not be taken as a proof in the court
