That day when Ludwig van Beethven died was ne f the saddest f my life. I had stayed with him fr mre than twenty years and lived thrugh many f his happiest mments and his triumphs as well as his mst unhappy times.
He wasn’t, hwever, the easiest f men t wrk fr. His mds were changeable s that he culd be reasnable at ne mment but mst impatient and intlerant at the next. All these prblems began in 1802 when he discvered his lss f hearing was nt temprary.
The lss f hearing brught him t a crssrads in his life. It was then that he realized that his future lay in cmpsing music. Luckily, althugh his deafness brught him fear and anxiety, he was able t use these emtins t inspire his wrk.
Dealing with his inner prblems and wrries, his music was bviusly subjective, which was nt the mst ppular type f its time. But peple recgnized his greatness. They did s even when they knew he culd nt acknwledge it. When he was cnducting his ninth and last symphny n its first perfrmance he was ttally deaf. S he just didn’t realize that the music had finished and cntinued t cnduct the rchestra. One f the singers had t turn him rund s he culd receive the cheers f the audience. Frm ne angle it was a sad mment but frm anther it was an even greater triumph. That a man with such a cnditin culd have written such dynamic music was verwhelming! It brught tears t my eyes t think that I had cntributed in sme small way by lking after him.
He dressed rather like a wild man himself. His hair was always untidy, his skin marked with spts and his muth set in a dwnward curve. He tk n care f his appearance and walked arund ur city with his clthes carelessly arranged. This was because he was cncentrating n his next cmpsitin.
Helping him mve huse many times, preparing his meals and lking after his everyday cmfrts were my reward fr a life living s clse t such a musical genius. I cnsider myself a lucky man!
24．The authr was mst likely t be Beethven’s _______.

25．What can be learned frm this passage?
A．Beethven’s music was underestimated at that time.
B．Beethven’s wrk was inspired by his fear and anger.
C．Beethven’s music stayed in step with the mainstream music f the time.
D．Beethven lst his ability t hear when first cnducting his ninth symphny.
26．Why did the authr tear in Paragraph 4?
A．Because the perfrmance was a cmplete success.
B．Because he played a part in Beethven’s success.
C．Because Beethven was cmpletely deaf then.

Thanks t this new hands-free suitcase, carrying arund heavy luggage may sn becme a thing f the past. Designed by an Israeli cmpany NUA Rbtics, this “smart” suitcase will fllw yu everywhere yu g.
The carry-n suitcase, currently a prttype (雏形), cnnects t a smart phne app via Bluetth. It has a built-in camera sensr that can “see” yu and fllw yu arund n flat surfaces like airprt flrs. It cmes with an anti-theft alarm t prevent smene carrying it away when yu’re nt lking and it has a backup battery that yu can use t charge all yur devices.
“It can fllw and carry things fr peple arund while cmmunicating with their smart phne, and aviding bstacles,” explained Alex Libman, funder f NUA Rbtics. “We’re cmbining sensr netwrk, cmputer visin, and rbtics. S if yu dwnlad ur app, press the fllw-me buttn, the luggage recgnizes the specific user and knws t fllw and cmmunicate.”
NUA is still testing the device and trying t imprve features like speed and custmizatin (定制), but they hpe t make the suitcase available t custmers in a year’s time. If it prves successful, they want t use the Bluetth pairing technlgy t autmate lts f ther devices, like shpping carts at the supermarket. These devices are especially meant t be useful t the physically disabled and elderly. “Any bject can be smart and rbtic,” Libman said, “We want t bring rbts int everyday life.”
The Israeli tech cmpany made it clear that the finished prduct will lk just like a regular suitcase. They’re planning t partner with a carry-n luggage maker, since the device that makes it “smart” weighs just 2.5 punds and can be fitted n ld-fashin luggage.
With NUA’s smart suitcase, carrying rund heavy luggage isn’t a burden. But hw their inventin will handle tugh bstacles like stairs? It will be interesting t wait.
28．Why can this carry-n suitcase fllw yu?
A．Because there is a camera sensr inside.
B．Because there exists an anti-theft alarm.
C．Because it can recgnize yur smell.
D．Because a battery plays a key part.

When scientists g t a frest t study mnkeys and their habits and behavirs, hw d they knw wh’s wh?
In the past, scientists had t make marks n each f the animals t distinguish them. But in the future, they may have a much easier way t tell them apart thanks t facial recgnitin technlgy.
A research team frm China’s Nrthwest University is using facial recgnitin technlgy t identify thusands f snub-nsed mnkeys that live n Qinling Muntain in Shaanxi prvince.
Similar t human facial recgnitin, the technlgy that is used t identify mnkeys uses their facial features t create a database that includes every mnkey, Xinhua reprted. “When the system is fully develped, we can cnnect it with cameras set up in the muntains. The system will autmatically recgnize the mnkeys, name them and analyze their behavir,” said Zhang He, a member f the research team. “Fr each snub-nsed mnkey, we have 700 t 800 image samples, and the recgnitin success rate is 94 percent,” Zhang added.
“We used mbile phnes and prtable cameras with the mnkeys in tests at distances ranging frm abut 3 t 10 meters,” said He Gang, a member f the research team and an assciate prfessr in the Cllege f Life Sciences at Nrthwest University. “There is n need t interfere with the mnkeys. Such a methd f sampling is clearly nn-invasive.”
Cmpared t humans, facial recgnitin technlgy fr mnkeys is mre cmplicated because f their hairier faces. The clr f their hair causes them t blend int their envirnment. These factrs make it harder fr cmputers t identify them.
“Mnkeys d nt cperate with researchers in the same way humans d. It is difficult t take high-quality pictures and vides f them, which are needed t imprve the system,” said Li Bagu, leader f the research team.
Currently, there are abut 4,000 snub-nsed mnkeys living n Qinling Muntain. The team’s gal is t successfully identify every mnkey that lives there.
32．What prblem d scientists face while studying mnkeys accrding t the text?
A．Hw t mark them.B．Hw t distinguish them.
C．Hw t understand their behavir.D．Hw t bserve them clearly
33．What des the article tell us abut facial recgnitin technlgy fr mnkeys?
A．It is nw widely adpted in China.
B．It wrks better than human facial recgnitin.
C．It will use mnkeys’ behavir t create a database.
D．It can help scientists study mnkeys withut disturbing them.
34．Accrding t the leader f the team, what is the difficulty in imprving the system?
A．Less cperative mnkeys.
B．Hard fr cmputers t identify the mnkeys.
C．phts and vides f high quality.
D．T many mnkeys t identify.
35．What is the authr’s main purpse in writing the article?
A．T intrduce a new way t identify mnkeys.
B．T shw the imprtance f studying mnkeys.
C．T cmpare different ways t identify mnkeys.
D．T explain difficulties in develping a new system.

That day when Ludwig van Beethven died was ne f the saddest f my life. I had stayed with him fr mre than twenty years and lived thrugh many f his happiest mments and his triumphs as well as his mst unhappy times.
He wasn’t, hwever, the easiest f men t wrk fr. His mds were changeable s that he culd be reasnable at ne mment but mst impatient and intlerant at the next. All these prblems began in 1802 when he discvered his lss f hearing was nt temprary.
The lss f hearing brught him t a crssrads in his life. It was then that he realized that his future lay in cmpsing music. Luckily, althugh his deafness brught him fear and anxiety, he was able t use these emtins t inspire his wrk.
Dealing with his inner prblems and wrries, his music was bviusly subjective, which was nt the mst ppular type f its time. But peple recgnized his greatness. They did s even when they knew he culd nt acknwledge it. When he was cnducting his ninth and last symphny n its first perfrmance he was ttally deaf. S he just didn’t realize that the music had finished and cntinued t cnduct the rchestra. One f the singers had t turn him rund s he culd receive the cheers f the audience. Frm ne angle it was a sad mment but frm anther it was an even greater triumph. That a man with such a cnditin culd have written such dynamic music was verwhelming! It brught tears t my eyes t think that I had cntributed in sme small way by lking after him.
He dressed rather like a wild man himself. His hair was always untidy, his skin marked with spts and his muth set in a dwnward curve. He tk n care f his appearance and walked arund ur city with his clthes carelessly arranged. This was because he was cncentrating n his next cmpsitin.
Helping him mve huse many times, preparing his meals and lking after his everyday cmfrts were my reward fr a life living s clse t such a musical genius. I cnsider myself a lucky man!

Thanks t this new hands-free suitcase, carrying arund heavy luggage may sn becme a thing f the past. Designed by an Israeli cmpany NUA Rbtics, this “smart” suitcase will fllw yu everywhere yu g.
The carry-n suitcase, currently a prttype (雏形), cnnects t a smart phne app via Bluetth. It has a built-in camera sensr that can “see” yu and fllw yu arund n flat surfaces like airprt flrs. It cmes with an anti-theft alarm t prevent smene carrying it away when yu’re nt lking and it has a backup battery that yu can use t charge all yur devices.

S if yu dwnlad ur app, press the fllw-me buttn, the luggage recgnizes the specific user and knws t fllw and cmmunicate.”
NUA is still testing the device and trying t imprve features like speed and custmizatin (定制), but they hpe t make the suitcase available t custmers in a year’s time. If it prves successful, they want t use the Bluetth pairing technlgy t autmate lts f ther devices, like shpping carts at the supermarket. These devices are especially meant t be useful t the physically disabled and elderly. “Any bject can be smart and rbtic,” Libman said, “We want t bring rbts int everyday life.”
The Israeli tech cmpany made it clear that the finished prduct will lk just like a regular suitcase. They’re planning t partner with a carry-n luggage maker, since the device that makes it “smart” weighs just 2.5 punds and can be fitted n ld-fashin luggage.

When scientists g t a frest t study mnkeys and their habits and behavirs, hw d they knw wh’s wh?
In the past, scientists had t make marks n each f the animals t distinguish them. But in the future, they may have a much easier way t tell them apart thanks t facial recgnitin technlgy.
A research team frm China’s Nrthwest University is using facial recgnitin technlgy t identify thusands f snub-nsed mnkeys that live n Qinling Muntain in Shaanxi prvince.
Similar t human facial recgnitin, the technlgy that is used t identify mnkeys uses their facial features t create a database that includes every mnkey, Xinhua reprted. “When the system is fully develped, we can cnnect it with cameras set up in the muntains. The system will autmatically recgnize the mnkeys, name them and analyze their behavir,” said Zhang He, a member f the research team. “Fr each snub-nsed mnkey, we have 700 t 800 image samples, and the recgnitin success rate is 94 percent,” Zhang added.
“We used mbile phnes and prtable cameras with the mnkeys in tests at distances ranging frm abut 3 t 10 meters,” said He Gang, a member f the research team and an assciate prfessr in the Cllege f Life Sciences at Nrthwest University. “There is n need t interfere with the mnkeys. Such a methd f sampling is clearly nn-invasive.”
Cmpared t humans, facial recgnitin technlgy fr mnkeys is mre cmplicated because f their hairier faces. The clr f their hair causes them t blend int their envirnment. These factrs make it harder fr cmputers t identify them.
“Mnkeys d nt cperate with researchers in the same way humans d. It is difficult t take high-quality pictures and vides f them, which are needed t imprve the system,” said Li Bagu, leader f the research team.
Currently, there are abut 4,000 snub-nsed mnkeys living n Qinling Muntain. The team’s gal is t successfully identify every mnkey that lives there.
32．What prblem d scientists face while studying mnkeys accrding t the text?
A．Hw t mark them.B．Hw t distinguish them.
C．Hw t understand their behavir.D．Hw t bserve them clearly
33．What des the article tell us abut facial recgnitin technlgy fr mnkeys?
A．It is nw widely adpted in China.
B．It wrks better than human facial recgnitin.
C．It will use mnkeys’ behavir t create a database.
D．It can help scientists study mnkeys withut disturbing them.
34．Accrding t the leader f the team, what is the difficulty in imprving the system?
A．Less cperative mnkeys.
B．Hard fr cmputers t identify the mnkeys.
C．phts and vides f high quality.
D．T many mnkeys t identify.
35．What is the authr’s main purpse in writing the article?
A．T intrduce a new way t identify mnkeys.
B．T shw the imprtance f studying mnkeys.
C．T cmpare different ways t identify mnkeys.
