钩的组词21．（6分）Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another.
Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world, in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for tho who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a fal idea created by companies and advertirs, hoping to ll their products .
'The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people's lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a n of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.
It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes lection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ea into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.

A．The practice of choice is difficult
B．The right of choice is given but at a price.
C．Choice and right exist at the same time.
D．The exerci of rights is a luxury.
2、Why do more choices of goods give ri to anxiety?
A．People are likely to find themlves overcome by business persuasion.
B．Shoppers may find themlves lost in the broad range of items.
C．Companies and advertirs are often misleading about the range of choice.
D．Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.
3、By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that
A．products of the latest design flood the market
B．competitions are fierce in high-tech industry
C．everyday goods need to be replaced often
D．advanced products meet the needs of people
4、What is this passage mainly about?

（8分）Microsoft has developed a new smartphone app that interprets eye signals and translates them into letters, 23．
allowing people with motor neurone dia to communicate with others from a phone.
The GazeSpeak app combines a smartphone’s camera with artificial intelligence to recognize eye movements in real time and convert them into letters, words and ntences.
For people suffering from ALS（渐冻症）, also known as motor neurone dia, eye movement can be the only way they are able to communicate.
“Current eye-tracking input systems for people with ALS or other motor impairments are expensive, not robust under sunlight, and require frequent re-calibration and considerable, relatively immobile tups,” said Xiaoyi Zhang, a rearcher at Microsoft who developed the technology. “To mitigate the drawbacks…we created GazeSpeak, an
eye-gesture communication system that runs on a smartphone, and is designed to be low-cost, robust, portable and easy to learn.”
The app is ud by the listener by pointing their smartphone at the speaker. A chart that can be stuck to the back of the smartphone is then ud by the speaker to determine which eye movements to make in order to communicate. The sticker shows four grids of letters, which each correspond to a different eye movement. By looking up, down, left or right, the speaker lects which grids the letters they want belong to. The artificial intelligence algorithm is then able to predict the word or ntence they are trying to say.
Zhang’s rearch, Smartphone-Bad Gaze Gesture Communication for People with Motor Disabilities, is t to be prented at the Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems in May.
1、The un derlined word “mitigate” in paragraph probably means __________________.
A．adjust B．correct
C．strengthen D．lesn
2、We can learn from the passage that _________________________.偶尔的近义词

B．ALS suffers can only be understood through the newly-developed app
