called Bowlingual,and it translates dog barks into feelings.Peoplelaughed when the Japanese toymaker Takara Company made the world/s first dog。human translation machine in 2002 But 300.000 Japanese dog owners bought it.(47)“Nobody else had thought about it,“said Masahiko Kajita,who works forTakara.We spend SO much time training dogs to understand our orders;what wouldit be like if we could understand dogs?z/Bowlingual has two parts.(48)The translationis done in the gadget using a database(资料库)containing every kind of bark.Based on animal behaviour research,these noises are divided into six categories:happiness,sadness,frustration,anger,declaration and desire(49)ln this way,thedatabase scientifically matches a bark to an emotion,which is then translated intoone of 200 phrases.The product will be available in US pet stores this summer for about US$120.Itcan store up to 100 barks,even recording the dogs emotions when the owner isaway.A A wireless microphone is attached to the

是对装置的具体说明。49 F 第五段的第一句话说的是:根据动物行为研究,这些杂音可以分成六类:幸福;悲痛;受挫;气愤;声称;欲望。因为是人狗翻译机,这些情感还需要人的话对应起来。50 C 上一句话说的是:当一个客人最近来到FIJkuda的屋时,狗大声地叫着bowwow”的声音。因为是在讲人狗翻泽机,下面一句话应该讲的是它的翻译。因此C 是对的。职称英语综合类补全短文练习More and more

advised that a transplant was the only way in which shewould live.Lani spent three weeks in hospital after the operation.Because the receiversbody tries to reject the new organ,the patient has to be given special drugs_(48)Although David left hospital after 10 days,he didn/t return to work until afterthree months.In order to reach the liver,the doctors have to cut through thestomach wall,which is strong and full of muscle.lt therefore takes a long time torecover after this o p e r a t i o n.(4 9)S o far,only 16 of theselivertransplant operations have been carried out in Britain.(50)Doctors say,“If possible,we prefer to take a liver from a dead don not,usually aparent?L ani still has to look after her health,and she gets more tired than otherchildren of the same age,but doctors hope that she will continue to get stronger andstronger.A She had one operation when she was six weeks old,which was not successful.B While these drugs are given,it is important that the patient does not

A文章第一段介绍说,如今五岁的lani在一岁的时候做了肝移植手术,父亲将自己的肝的一部分给了女儿。为什么要做这个手术呢?这是因为Lani生下来便有肝病。根据上下文,空格处应填出生后至手术前曾采取过的措施,即六周大的时候,她曾做过手术,但是不成功。,47 C文章第二段具体介绍手术情况。根据空格后句子的内容,空格处应填有关捐肝的内容。48 B 有了空格前一句最后一词的提示,空格处应填的句子也就不难选择了。49 F 此段中i 空格前的句子都在将Lani父亲手术后的恢复情况及其原因,因此空格处的句子也应与他的恢复有关。50 E 空格前一句讲的是肝移植在英国的进展,空格处应首选与其进行比较的句子。职称英语综合类补全短文精选练习题All of US have felt pain.We have cut ourselves.We have been burned.Or we havehad headaches.Some of us suffer pain rarely pain rarely.(46)Scientists have learned that the sense of pain is made up of both chemical andelectrical signals.(49)Scientists also have learned that the nervous system sends twodifferent kinds of pain messages to the brain:one very fast,the other slow.The firstmessage is the warning signal.lt moves at a speed of 30 meters a second.In less thana second,the brain understands that part of the body is hurt and how badly it isinjured.(50)lt tells us not to use the injured part until it heals.A And others have painful attacks all the time.B These signals travel from nerve cells in the injured area,up the spinal cord(脊髓)to the brain,and back down again.C It tells us that We are injured and should do something about itD They knew little about the process of pain itself.E The other message moves at a speed of only 013meter a second.F And they send the second,slower message of pain to the brain.答案解析4 6 A文章第一段提到,我们都曾感觉过疼痛。从空格前一句的内容,即 有些人很少遭受疼痛之苦”,可以推断空格处句子的内容应当与这一句的内容相反,即“另外一些人却总是遭受疼痛的袭击”。47 C空格前的句子讲到,疼痛是我们身体的警报系统。因此接下来的句子应该说明这样说的原因。48 D空格后一句讲到,然而,有关疼痛过程的新知识使医生得以更好地控制疼痛。由此可见,空格处句子的内容应与此句内容相反,即医生对疼痛过程了解得很少。49 B空格前一句中的“chemical and electrical signals”等词语是对空格处句子的很好提示。50 E 文章第四段最后一句提到了two different kinds of pain messages,而文章最后一段第一句中又用了The first message,显然,空格处的句子应以Theother message开始。职称英语综合类补全短文精选练习题(2)Price PlanningA price represents the value of a goods or service for both the seller and thebuyer.Price

Celebrations2016年职称英语综合类补全短文练习:Some Unusual CelebrationsOf course,they are not strange to the people who celebrate them.Perhaps thatis because the celebrations have long traditions.Consider April Fools Day/orexample.No one knows when or why it began.Today it is celebrated in manycountriesFrance,England,and Australia among others.On this day,people playpractical j okes.(47)The ones who laugh are the ones playing thejokes.The people they fool often get angry.Does celebrating this day make sense toyou?Dyngus Day in Poland seems strange,too.On this dayjt is traditional for boys topour water over the heads of girls.Here is the strangest part:They do it to girls theylike.Other unusual celebrations take place in a single city or town.A holiday called L aTomatina is celebrated in Bunol,Spain.Every year,in late August,big trucks carry morethan 200,000 pounds of tomatoes into this little t own.(48)For twohours,people in the,streets throw tomatoes at each other.Everyone ends up red fromhead to toe.August 10 marks the start of the Puck Fair,an Irish festival with a very unusualtradition.People from the town of Killorglin go up into the mountains and catch awild goat.(49)There are also some celebrations that are really strange.In the UnitedStates,sometimes one person gets an idea for a new holiday and tries to get others toaccept it.Whose idea was Public Sleeping Day?That one is on February 28.lt mayseem strange.but it sounds like more fun than the one on February 9.(50)Do you like the idea of inventing a new holiday?If you do,then you will want tomark March 26 on your calendar.That is Make Up Your Own Holiday Day.A.Some of the days people celebrate,however are less serious.BJokes are supposed to be funny,but these jokes do not make everyone laugh.C.Some people have fun imagining new holidays.D.They bring him back to town put a crown on his head,and make him king forthree days.E.Then begins the worlds biggest food fight.F.That is supposed to be Toothache Day.答案解析:46.A 句意:然而,人们所庆祝的一些天并不那么严肃。47.B 句意:恶作剧很有趣,但是这些恶作剧并不能使每个人都发笑。文中“这一天,人们开着戏弄人的恶作剧。”和“做恶作剧的人会笑,而被戏弄的人往往会很生气。很明显应补入B 项。48.E 句意:接着便开始了世界上的食物大战。49.D 句意:他们把他(或它)带回城里,给 他(或它)戴上了王(或花)冠,并让他(或它)当三天的国王。They(他们;指人,复数)him(他;指人或动物)。所补空白处的前一句应该有表示 人 的复数名词和有表示 人 或 动物 的单数名词。文中Killorglin城的人们上山去抓一只野山羊。很明显应补入D 项。50.F 句意:这一天是牙痛日。That(这一或那一),代词,指代前一句中的某个名词。Toothache Day(牙痛日),说明前一句一定会有 某月某日,才能定为大写的 日。文中 似乎很奇怪,可是听起来比这更有趣的是2 月9 日。很明显应该补入F 项。职称英语综合类补全短文练习The Joy of L iving AloneMore and more Americans are living alone.Some live alone because of divorceor the death of
