【題目】Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one -word more than you need.

Forget fingerprints or the color of your eyes, airport security could soon be looking at the shape of your ears when deciding whether to allow you into the country.

Researchers have discovered that each person’s ears have a(n) 【1】 shape and have created a system that is able to scan them. The scans can then be compared with a database of ear shapes to identify whose they are.

Professor Mark Nixon led the research team of scientists from the University of South-ampton. They tested 252 images of different ears and found the system was able to match each ear to a(n) 【2】 image held in its database with 99 percent 【3】.

“There are a whole load of structures in the ear that you can use to get a set of measurements that are unique to an individual,” said Professor Nixon. “With biometrics, the problem is what happens when people get old. With facial recognition, the systems are often confused by crow's feet(魚尾紋)and other 【4】 of aging.” Our ears, however, age very 【5】. They growproportionally larger and the earlobes get a bit longer, but otherwise they are fully formed from birth, according to Professor Nixon.

The U. K. Identity and Passport Service has been testing facial recognition at an airport since 2008. But facial recognition software is often confused by changes in expression.

Therefore, people need to 【6】 a neutral expression and in some eases even avoid wearing make-up. And fingerprints, one of the best ways we have of【7】 an individual at the moment, can be “not so 【8】” according to the professor. “Bakers and brick layers tend not to have obvious fingerprints as the distinctive whirls rub off. It is hard to do that with your ears. “

Ear scanning uses a technology that 【9】 all the tubular structures of the ear and measures them. Professor Nixon believes it could take place as passengers walk through security gates, for example, by placing camera on either side to 【10】 an image of their ears.

【題目】My Grandpa Forgets Who I Am

A few days ago I visited my grandfather in hospital. He has Alzhemier’s—a degenerative disease that usually starts slowly and gets worse over time. I thought I was prepared to see him. I knew chances were slim that he'd actually recognize me.

He didn’t. As a matter of fact, he had no idea that he even had grandchildren. But he was excited that somebody came to visit him. I tried to explain to him who I was. But after he told me multiple times that he didn’t have grandchildren, I gave up. And my heart broke into a million little pieces.

I was tired of explaining things to him. So I just smiled. He smiled back. It's a genuine smile. Like a long time ago, when he’d take me by the hand and made this big world a little bit less scary for me. Now I have to take his hand.

We sat in silence for a little while, before he told me to call my grandma. This was the first time I had tried so hard to hold back tears. My grandma died four years ago and he didn't remember. He thought she was stuck on her way to pick him up.

My grandpa used to be a strong, hard-working man. He was the person you turned to when you needed your car fixed, your tires changed or something heavy to be carried. Sadly, that man left this world a long time ago, and left behind a man that is lost and scared.

I want to help him. I want to make him feel better. I want to tell him about his old life, and how great it was. So I sat with him and I held his hand, and every once in a while I told him how good he looked and how much I liked the color of his shirt and how it brought out the blue in his eyes. I told him that my grandma was on her way whenever he asked about her, and I made sure the glass in his hand was always filled with water.

I can’t take away his pain. I can’t help him remember. I can’t make the disease go away. All I can do is hold on to the memories—hold on for both of us.

【1】When the author first saw her grandpa in hospital ______.

A.she gave up on him

【2】The author was close to tears because ______.

A.grandma died about four years ago

B.grandpa needed to be taken care of

C.grandma didn’t make it to the hospital

【3】Which of the following best describe the author?

C.Warm-hearted and grateful.

D.Strong-minded and generous.

【4】The author wrote this passage to ______.

It was fine and the sky was clear blue. I wanted to go somewhere excited with my roommates. Finally we decided to climb to the Great Wall. It took us one and a half hour to get there by bus. Upon arriving, we begin to climb happily, sharing stories about the Wall. After two hours of climbing, we reached the top, where we enjoyed the breathtaking scenery or took quite a few photos. See the Great wall wind its way over the mountains, both of us felt really amazed. How a wonder! As the famous saying goes, “He who has never been to the Great Wall not a true man.” I felt like I was the true man.
