8、ry month.Just ask Alex Chatzieleftheriou,who has had a front-row seat watching this evolution unfold.Six years ago,he launched a startup called Blueground that rents out beautifully designed,fully furnished apartments for a month at a time,at rates that are cheaper than hotels.And it aims to make ea

9、ch one feel unique and comfortable,rather than standardized,like what you might find in a traditional hotel.Today,the company has 3,000 properties(房地产)in six U.S.cities,along with Dubai,Istanbul,London,Paris,and Chatzieleftherious native Athens,and a staff of 400.With the helpof the Series B round o

10、f funding,the company landed$50 million,plus its previous total of$28 million,to continue its rapid expansion.It hopes to have 50,000 properties in 50 cities over the next three years.Chatzieleftheriou first came up with the idea for Blueground while he was working as a management consultant for McK

11、insey.“The accommodation of choice for consultants is the hotel,”he says.“I had to spend five years in hotel rooms,living in 12 different cities.I loved seeing the world,but I didnt love feeling like I didnt have a home.”And whats more,hotels arent a particularly cost-effective solution for companie

15、States optical firm for a job as a lens designer.He apologized for lack of training,but on announcing that he owned two copies of the classic Conradys Applied Optics and Optical Design,one for his office and a second for his bedside table,he was hired on the spot.Perhaps the story will be repeated s

16、ome day with Buchdahls Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics as a similar certificate of qualification.Hamiltonian theory describes with powerful generality the overall properties of optical systems considered as black boxes,although it does not describe the detailed structure needed to construct the s

17、ystems and achieve these properties.Buchdahls book is therefore on the subject of geometrical optics,but it is not about how to design lenses.It is,however a compact comprehensive account of the fundamentals of the theory written with the lens designers needs very much in mind.Every lens designer wo

18、rth his salt has at some time in his career attempted to apply the broad concepts of Hamiltonian optics to the solutions of practical problems.Success has been sufficiently rare that the theory,as such,has made little direct contribution to techniques for optical instrument design.The failures have

19、been frustrating because of the obvious fundamental power of the theory and because of its conceptual elegance.The indirect effects have been large,however,both in contributing to an understanding of fundamental principles that govern the overall behavior of optical systems and in pointing the way t

20、o other,more practical,theoretical approaches.Buchdahl approaches the subject not only as a capable mathematical physicist,but as one who with a knowledge of practical optics has made a significant contribution to geometrical optical theory.Buchdahls approach has,over the last decade,had a major imp

21、act on modern lens design with computers.Thus,he brings to this exposition of Hamiltonian optics a familiarity with practical optics not usually found in authors on this subject.The author claims his book to be non-mathematical,and indeed it might be so viewed by a professional mathematician.From th

22、e point of view of many physicists and engineers,it will appear to be quite mathematical.Moreover,this is a tightly written book.The subject matter is developed with precision,and the author expects the reader,at very point,to be master of the preceding exposition.8.Hamiltonian theory met with failu

23、res as a result of _.A.newer finding related to the wave particle nature of light B.very complicated concepts too difficult to understand by most lens designers C.too much mathematical detail in the theory D.not enough practical information offered by the theory to allow for use by lens crafters 9.T

24、he author of this passage implies that Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics is necessary to _.A.the students who are major in mathematical geometry B.those who want to grasp the basic principles of optical systems C.the lens designers who look for instructions on practical designs D.those who are inte

25、rested in physics 10.The article points out that the great benefits of Hamiltonian optics have been found is _.A.indirect ways of learning mathematics B.a fundamental power within the theory C.the conceptual elegance of the theory D.the practical applications of the theory in finding new approaches

26、to old problems 11.This passage is probably excerpted from _.A.a review of a book B.a chemistry textbook C.an opticians essay D.a general science text D The regular world presented to us by our five senses you could call it reality 1.0 is not always the most user-friendly.We get lost in unfamiliar c

27、ities;we meet people whose language we dont understand.So why not try the improved version:augmented reality（AR）or reality 2.0?AR technology adds computer-produced images on the real world via a mobile phone camera or special video glasses.Early forms of AR are already here smart phones can deliver

28、information about nearby ATMs and restaurants and other points of interest.But thats just the beginning.A few years from now the quantity of information available will have increased hugely.You will not only see that theres a Chinese restaurant on the next block,but you will be able to see the menu

29、and read reviews of it.This is where the next revolution in computing will take place:in the interface（界面）between the real world and the information brought to us via the Internet.Imagine bubbles floating before your eyes,filled with cool information about anything and everything that you see in fro

30、nt of you.Lets jump ahead to ten years from now.A person trying to fix a car wont be reading a book with pictures;he will be wearing a device that projects animated 3D computer graphics onto the equipment under repair,labelling parts and giving step-by-step guidance.The window onto the AR world can

31、be a smart phone or special video glasses.But in ten years time these will have been replaced by contact lenses(隐形眼镜)with tiny LEDs,which present something at a readable distance in front of eyes.So a deaf person wearing these lenses will be able to see what people are saying.The question is,while w

36、ting to littering while driving,thats a whole lot of banana peels,or much worse.An orange peel or a cigarette butt has a similar decomposing term to that of a banana.But tin and aluminium(铝）cans last up to 100 years._17_ Its true that longer-lasting materials will damage the environment and its anim

37、als for longer._18_For example,despite its fairly short decomposing term,more than 120 tons of cigarette-related litter is discarded(丢弃）in the UK every day.Besides，our annual littering,which has increased by 500 percent since the 1960s,has caused the UK*s rat population to increase by 60 million.Its

38、 not a cheap habit either:_19_So,ifs not surprising that if caught littering you could face a 20,000 fine or even jail time and,if you throw away something dangerous,the court could give you five years to serve.The punishments might seem severe._20_So we still have some way to go in making sure peop

39、le follow the rules.To take back our beautiful countryside and cities we need to do more than simply not littering.We need to truly care more about the world around us.A.Banana peels are among the most frequent littered stuff.B.But fear of the environmental impact of litter is on the rise.C.Imagine
