wildlife.CDoctors at the University of California,San Francisco,in the US,have developed a pieceof softwarethatcanreadminds.Theproject,supportedbyFacebook,hopestohelppeoplewho,because of medicalconditions,are unable tocommunicate withothers.Until now,technologies that have helped speech-impaired(语 言 障 碍)peoplecommunicate have been tooslow to allow a natural conversation.People find these thingsupsetting to use.This new way uses brain signals to change a persons thoughts into text.Whenwe want to speak,the brain sends signals to make the lips,jaw and tongue move in the rightway to make an understandable sound.By discovering these brain signals,the new software isable to predict what a person want to say quickly enough to hold a conversation.The brain-reading software was tested on three volunteers who could all speak like healthypeople.They were being treated for epilepsy(癫 痫).As part of their treatment for epilepsy,each patient had electrodes(电 极)placed onto their brain.Edward Chang,who led the study,used these electrodes to record the signals in the patients brains while they listened to a list ofquestions and answered them.Chang and his team then built a computer program that learned to match the patients brainsignals to the words the patients heard and the words the patients spoke.For the questions,thesoftware matched the correct words 76%of the time.For the answers,it matched the correctwords 61%of the time.Now,the mind-reading software works only for the limited set of sentences on which it wastrained.Scientists hope that this early system will help them develop a more powerful one thatcould understand thoughts in real time to give people their voices back.Chang said,“We asscientists should try our best to help people to bring that most important and basic human abilityback.”英语试卷第 6 页(共 1 0 页)28.Whatisthedisadvantageof previoustechnologies?A.Theycouldnt read peoples minds
