1、2011高考英語閱讀理解分類匯編之新聞報(bào)道類 1.（2011·山東卷）D Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with puters. Brain-puter interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send mands to machines. Recently, two researchers, Jose Milan and Michele Tavella from the Feder

2、al 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 band. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his

3、 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 disable

4、d people to municate 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 puter. The puter interprets the signals and mands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has

5、two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the puter react to mands from the brain. Prof. Milan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the puter software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple mands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to

6、 disabled people can be grouped in two categories: munication, 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 guarantee that they can
