Imagining what they will look like and be able to do in 2020 is really a challenge. To help, experts have outlined three major mobile trends that they believe will have bee reality by then.Our phones will be so smart in 10 years time that theyll know everything about our situation and warn us when something needs our attention. This is the top prediction of both Nokia and Google. They predict that our cars and home appliances will be able to municate with our mobile. For example, fridges will tell your mobile to tell you to pick up milk on the way back from work. While driving, your mobile will suggest that you take a different route because theres a road accident up ahead. The second trend is in gesture-based controls. People who know the iPhones touch - sensitive screen are already familiar with the technology. It translates hand movements into actions on-screen. But gestural munications will make the phone more convenient to use and may pletely replace touchpads. According to industry insiders, the most immediate step forward in gestural technology will be in voice recognition. Its believed voice recognition technology will speed up munications. It is quicker to speak than type. Eventually, phone screens will disappear.The third major development will change our understanding of a mobile phone. From a single phone, the mobile will be developed into multi-part devices. It is opposite to the current trend in which mobile phones are bining the functions of cameras, music players and game consoles. The prediction is based on the idea that the world will bee more wireless and all these - cameras, music players and game consoles - will be wirelessly connected. Mobile phones wont need to contain these devices because users will be able to control them wirelessly through their phones.61. The first paragraph serves as .A. a lead-in B. a conclusionC. a summary D. a supporting fact62. Which of the following is most likely to be the appearance of a mobile phone in 2020? 63. From the text, we can learn that the future mobile phones will .A. drive cars for us B. be controlled by the users voicesC. be controlled by home appliances D. be very big together with separated multiple parts64. The text mainly tells us .A. three major trends of mobile phones B. what mobile phones will look like in 2020C. the future mobile phones are gesture-basedD. some new functions of the present mobile phones 65. The writers attitude towards the development of mobile phone is _.A. worriedB. positive C. concernedD. nervousBNOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out. They are not sure to what degree peoples memories are affected. The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.Some memories can ruin peoples lives. They e back to you when you dont want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually e with very painful emotions, said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. This could relieve a lot of that suffering.But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change peoples memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. Im not sure we want to wipe those memories out, said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.66. The passage is mainly about _.A. a new medical invention B. a new research on the pillC. a way of wiping out painful memories D. an argument about the research on the pill67. The drug tested on people can _.A. cause the brain to fix memories B. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. prevent body producing certain chemicals D. wipe out the emotional effects of memories68. We can infer from the passage that _.A. people doub
