promises to tell you exactly what the other person is thinking-and when you should stop talking.
The glasses have a built-in camera which monitors the other person"s facial expressions and matches
them up with 24 known features which convey emotions. It will then tell the individual via an earpiece and
lights on the glasses what their date is thinking. In a traffic light-style system, a red light means negative,
yellow means they are a bit interested and green means your date is happy. The glasses are under
development at present by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology"s Media Lab.
They say that wearing them during a conversation with another person is like having an "extra sense"
that they are bored or losing interest.
The eyewear was developed for people suffering from autism (孤独症) who have much difficulty
interacting with others, but now the team behind it has seen wider applications. It works thanks to a
camera the size of a grain of rice which is put into the glasses frame and connected via a wire to a small
computer which can be attached to the user"s body. The camera monitors how long and how often 24
"feature points" appear on the subject"s faces which are then analyzed by software developed by the MIT
team.
This data is then compared with a bank of expressions and the computer tells the wearer what is
going on via the earpiece and the traffic light system.
So far the glasses are still a job in progress and have been accurate just 64 per cent of the time, a
figure which is expected to improve with further tests.
B. scientists are showing more and more concern to people suffering from autism
C. the glasses will be more and more popular

B. The glasses are widely used and have achieved great success.

in the country.
The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs
and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.
As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the
deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas
students have also been eased.
Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting
from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.
"This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning
to study overseas," says Wang Lan, a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC),
a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.
However, in the past few years, many of Wang"s student clients (客户) could not start studies in
Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and
deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to
study in Australia, Wang says.
A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her postgraduate studies
in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.
"According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put
down 550,000 yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 yuan. This is a relief for my
parents," Li says.
She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study
plans.
"I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I
return to China," she says.
Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according
to the report by EIC.
B. Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.
C. Australia widens window of opportunity for international students.
D. More students will work in Australia after their graduation.
B. The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.
C. Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.
D. After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.
B. more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.
C. the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students
D. more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia
B. 140,000 yuan
C. 410,000 yuan
D. 86,850 yuan

D. They have to do so according to the new regulations.

her first ever novel for adults, which is set to become one of the most anticipated (期望的) book in years.
The deal means that Rowling"s long-standing relationship with Bloomsbury, the London-based publisher
that launched (发行) the Harry Potter books, has come to an end, at 1east in terms of new works by the
author.
Rowling is keeping her fans guessing about the characters and plot of her new book. She only said
that the new novel will be nothing like the Harry Potter series, which was sold over 30 million copies in
the UK alone. She thought that with the move from children"s to adult fiction, a switch to a new publisher
seemed like a natural and reasonable step.
She said," Although I"ve enjoyed writing it every bit as much, this book will be very different from the
Harry Potter series. The freedom to explore a new field is a gift that Harry"s success has brought me."
Ian Rankin, the Edinburgh-based author whose highly-successful detective novels are also set in the city.
suggested Rowling"s book will be a crime novel.
"Wouldn"t it be funny if JK Rowling"s first novel for adults turned out to be a crime story set in
Edinburgh?" he said.
Industry insiders guessed that the deal is worth more than £5 million and the new book is expected
to come out later this year.
A spokesman said," JK Rowling"s audience is vast and her position is uniqLle. Hatry Potter books
were a global success and her fans are very loyal. Children that were eight, nine, or ten when the books
first came out in the 1990s are now in their 20s. Plenty of adults, loved the books regardless of whether
they had children, so the potential market for her is huge."
