The app also includes a simple contact screen that shows photos of family members along with names.If a patient tries to call a contact repeatedly something that can sometimes happen because of the disease the app will show a quick reminder: “Are you sure you want to call?You just called less than five minutes ago.” A “me” page shows the patients own name,age,phone number,and address.The app is still in development,and Yang doesnt yet have evidence that it will work.But she is optimistic that it can help,especially if introduced to someone in the early stages of the disease. Katherine Possin,an associate professor at the UCSF Memory and Aging Center,agrees,“It can be hard for somebody who has a lot of memory problems to learn a new technology,” Possin says.“But if somebody is in the early stages of the disease,and if the app is simple enough,its possible that they can learn to use it through repetition and practice.” 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了 Emma Yang 正在研发的一款能帮助阿尔茨海默病 人的应用软件的相关情况。 24.Why did Emma Yang come up with the idea of creating the app?

In 1822 Babbage exhibited his invention and won a prize from the government.After that,he immediately started to work on a larger machine designed to solve more difficult problems.Although he received some money left by his father,the money was not enough to support his design.He wrote to the government about his plan and was given2 500 to start with,a sum worth much more in those days than it is now. Babbage continued his work in London for four years.Then his health broke down,and he had to take a long holiday abroad.When he returned to London in 1828,he was at the end of his resources.Many bills remained unpaid.His chief assistant and co-workers quarreled with him and left with many expensive tools.For one year no work was done.During his period,Babbage,whose mind was always active,suddenly thought of a completely new idea for the machine.He rushed to meet the government officials to explain his new idea.But this time,they were unwilling to help him.For eight years,they refused to say whether they wanted it or not,and their final answer was “No.” From 1828 to 1839,Babbage held the position of professor at Cambridge very successfully.But his greatest work was the unfinished calculating machine which stood covered in dust in his house.It was the beginning of the modern computer. 【语篇解读】查尔斯巴贝奇在剑桥大学工作时专心从事计算机方面的研究,他于 1834 年发明 了分析机。虽然他遇到了很多困难而最终放弃,然而,他留给计算机界后辈们的是一份极其珍贵的精 神遗产。 28.The machine Babbage wanted to design would solve difficult maths problems . A.in one operation with few mistakes B.in more than one operation without any mistakes C.in more than one operation with slight mistakes D.in one operation without any mistakes 答案 D 解析细节理解题。根据第一段第二、三句可知,他想要研制的计算机不仅速度快,而且非常准确,再由 第一段最后一句可知,这种机器只用一种算法,由此可知,该题的正确答案为 D 项。 29.Babbage failed to continue his research work in 1828 mainly because .
