Emile and the Field is the stry f a little by wh spends every seasn playing in a field by his huse, whispering t the trees r playing in the leaves.
Kevin Yung, the authr f the bk, riginally wrte Emile and the Field years ag as a bedtime pem fr his sn. Yung’s sn is a teenager nw—and t ld fr bedtime stries—but this pem abut Emile lives n, nw as a children’s bk illustrated by Chima Ebinama, a fine artist living in Greece.
Ebinama wanted t reflect Emile’s lve fr nature, s she used a srt f rmantic palette (调色板) f pinks, blues and sunny yellws. She hand-painted the illustratins in waterclr.
Fr inspiratin, Ebinama says she drew frm a variety f influences. One scene, where Emile and his father hld hands and walk thrugh the snw-cvered field, reminds us f Snwy Day, Keats’ 1962 children’s bk abut Peter, an African American by wh explres his neighbrhd after the seasn’s first snwfall.
And—as in Snwy Day—Ebinama drew the little by in Emile and the Field as a black child. Even thugh the authr and the illustratr never discussed it clearly, Yung says the fact f Emile’s blackness was very imprtant t him. The winter scenes were actually the mst challenging. Obviusly it’s winter s it’s mstly white.
Emile and the Field is a family stry fr bth the authr and the illustratr. Ebinama, fr example, drew her dg, Luna, int the stry as the little dg that fllws Emile arund. Even thugh there is n dg in Yung’s riginal pem, Luna came in very handy.
There was a kind f family quality t the bk fr Yung. He named the main character f his pem after his great-grandfather, Emile, a farmer wh lived t be 103 years ld. He says the stry reminds him f running arund his family’s fields as a kid in Luisiana.
“There’s nthing better than being read t r reading t smene,” Yung says. “It really cnnects yu t this lng stry-telling traditin.”
28. Why did Yung write Emile and the Field at first?
A. T satisfy his lve fr nature. B. T read it as a bedtime pem.
C. T encurage his teenage sn. D. T tell the stry f a Greek by.
29. Why was Snwy Day mentined in paragraph 4?

C. T prvide us with an example f children’s bks.
D. T tell us where Ebinama gt her inspiratin t paint Emile.

Rbert Chmielewski has had quadriplegia (四肢瘫痪) since his teens. Sensrs implanted (植入) in his brain read his thughts t cntrl tw rbtic arms, which helps him t perfrm daily tasks. Nw he can use ne rbtic arm t cntrl a knife and the ther a frk.
Mdern technlgy can reach inside smene’s head and pull ut what he is thinking. Maybe he intends t mve a rbtic arm r type smething n a cmputer screen. Such thught-cntrlled devices can help peple wh aren’t able t mve r perfrm different tasks and prmte the well-being f the disabled.
Decding (解码) thught usually requires placing sensrs directly n r in smene’s brain. Thse implanted sensrs can catch the electrical signals passing between the persn’s brain cells, r neurns. Such signals carry messages that allw brains t think, feel and cntrl the bdy.
Using brain implants, researchers have picked up electrical signals in the brain linked t certain wrds r letters. This has allwed brain implants t transfrm thughts int text r speech n a cmputer. Likewise, brain implants have transfrmed imagined handwriting int text n a screen. Implanted sensrs have even allwed scientists t turn the signals they caught that are assciated with a sng in smene’s head int real music.
In a recent study, scientists decded full stries frm peple’s brains using MRI scans (磁共振成像扫描). This did nt require any brain implants. But building the thught decder did require many hurs f brain scans fr each persn. What’s mre, the system nly wrked n the persn whse brain scans helped build it and nly when that persn was willing t have their mind read.
S devices that might let smene secretly read yur mind frm acrss the rm are still a lng, lng way ff. Still, it’s clear that mind-reading tech is getting mre advanced. As it des, scientists are thinking hard abut what it wuld mean t live in a wrld where nt even the inside f yur head is cmpletely private.
32. What des the text begin with?
A. A suggestin. B. A cmparisn.C. An argument.D. An example.
33. What is explained in the text?
A. What principles a thught decder shuld fllw.
B. Hw MRI mnitrs the wrk f the implanted sensrs.
C. What’s used t catch signals passing thrugh the brain.
D. Hw rbtic arms are designed t satisfy different needs.
34. What is scientists’ attitude twards the future f the technlgy discussed in the text?
A. Cncerned.B. Cnfident.C. Dubtful.D. Indifferent.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Mind Reading is Stealing Our PrivacyB. Mind Reading is Hard, but nt Impssible
C. Mind Reading—Gd News fr MusiciansD. Mind Reading—a Brain-scanning Technlgy

Emile and the Field is the stry f a little by wh spends every seasn playing in a field by his huse, whispering t the trees r playing in the leaves.
Kevin Yung, the authr f the bk, riginally wrte Emile and the Field years ag as a bedtime pem fr his sn. Yung’s sn is a teenager nw—and t ld fr bedtime stries—but this pem abut Emile lives n, nw as a children’s bk illustrated by Chima Ebinama, a fine artist living in Greece.
Ebinama wanted t reflect Emile’s lve fr nature, s she used a srt f rmantic palette (调色板) f pinks, blues and sunny yellws. She hand-painted the illustratins in waterclr.
Fr inspiratin, Ebinama says she drew frm a variety f influences. One scene, where Emile and his father hld hands and walk thrugh the snw-cvered field, reminds us f Snwy Day, Keats’ 1962 children’s bk abut Peter, an African American by wh explres his neighbrhd after the seasn’s first snwfall.

Emile and the Field is a family stry fr bth the authr and the illustratr. Ebinama, fr example, drew her dg, Luna, int the stry as the little dg that fllws Emile arund. Even thugh there is n dg in Yung’s riginal pem, Luna came in very handy.

“There’s nthing better than being read t r reading t smene,” Yung says. “It really cnnects yu t this lng stry-telling traditin.”

Rbert Chmielewski has had quadriplegia (四肢瘫痪) since his teens. Sensrs implanted (植入) in his brain read his thughts t cntrl tw rbtic arms, which helps him t perfrm daily tasks. Nw he can use ne rbtic arm t cntrl a knife and the ther a frk.
Mdern technlgy can reach inside smene’s head and pull ut what he is thinking. Maybe he intends t mve a rbtic arm r type smething n a cmputer screen. Such thught-cntrlled devices can help peple wh aren’t able t mve r perfrm different tasks and prmte the well-being f the disabled.
Decding (解码) thught usually requires placing sensrs directly n r in smene’s brain. Thse implanted sensrs can catch the electrical signals passing between the persn’s brain cells, r neurns. Such signals carry messages that allw brains t think, feel and cntrl the bdy.
Using brain implants, researchers have picked up electrical signals in the brain linked t certain wrds r letters. This has allwed brain implants t transfrm thughts int text r speech n a cmputer. Likewise, brain implants have transfrmed imagined handwriting int text n a screen. Implanted sensrs have even allwed scientists t turn the signals they caught that are assciated with a sng in smene’s head int real music.
In a recent study, scientists decded full stries frm peple’s brains using MRI scans (磁共振成像扫描). This did nt require any brain implants. But building the thught decder did require many hurs f brain scans fr each persn. What’s mre, the system nly wrked n the persn whse brain scans helped build it and nly when that persn was willing t have their mind read.
S devices that might let smene secretly read yur mind frm acrss the rm are still a lng, lng way ff. Still, it’s clear that mind-reading tech is getting mre advanced. As it des, scientists are thinking hard abut what it wuld mean t live in a wrld where nt even the inside f yur head is cmpletely private.
32. What des the text begin with?
A. A suggestin. B. A cmparisn.C. An argument.D. An example.
33. What is explained in the text?
A. What principles a thught decder shuld fllw.
B. Hw MRI mnitrs the wrk f the implanted sensrs.
C. What’s used t catch signals passing thrugh the brain.
D. Hw rbtic arms are designed t satisfy different needs.
34. What is scientists’ attitude twards the future f the technlgy discussed in the text?
A. Cncerned.B. Cnfident.C. Dubtful.D. Indifferent.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Mind Reading is Stealing Our PrivacyB. Mind Reading is Hard, but nt Impssible
