28、Folklore (民间传说) has long been passed down from one generation to the next, holding families and communities together. But the National Trust has warned that advances in technology are causing traditional folklore to die out as it’s no longer related to modern life. It said that in a world filled with smartphones and the Internet, legends (传说) of magical blacksmiths (铁匠) were no longer of interest to children who have never put coal on the fire.
Jessica Monaghan, the National Trust’s Head of Experiences and Programming, called on the public to share their knowledge of folklore from different areas of the UK in an effort to keep it alive.“These legends and traditions tell us so much about our ancestors and their relationship with the world around them and help us appreciate the history and symbolism in the places where we live now,” she said.“Through these legends, we can explore what makes communities around the UK unique and what has tied us together for generations.”
“In the 16th century, the walnut (核桃) was considered as a treatment for brain illnesses simply because they are similar in shape. Few people today would believe this as we now have advanced medical knowledge and scientific methods,” said Dee Dee Chainey, author of A Treasury of British Folklore. But she thinks there are still chances for folklore as many people attempt to unearth old legends and efforts are becoming common.
Folklore should be rewritten and retold in new ways with new heroes and new lessons that are related to modern life. And that’s what folklore is about: taking the old wisdom and traditions and redescribing them for who we are and the lives we now have.
【1】What problem is described in the first paragraph?
A．The influence of folklore on children.
B．Children’s addiction to the Internet.
C．Folklore’s gradual disappearance in modern life.
D．The functions of folklore.
【2】What do Jessica Monaghan’s words intend to stress?
A．The value of folklore.
B．The importance of knowledge.
C．The attraction of legends.
D．The greatness of our ancestors.
【3】What does Dee Dee Chainey think of folklore?
A．It is likely to make a comeback.
B．It will be left behind by people.
C．It is a threat to science’s position.
D．It makes no difference to people today.
【4】What is the author’s suggestion according to the last paragraph?
A．Holding on to old traditions and following them.
B．Increasing efforts to promote traditional folklore.
C．Preserving folklore by making suitable adaptations.
D．Improving children’s access to education on folklore.
29、 Thanks to this new hands free suitcase, carrying around heavy luggage may soon become a thing of the past. Designed by Israeli company NUA Robotics, this "smart" suitcase can follow you everywhere you go.
The carry-on suitcase, currently a prototype(雏形), connects to a smart phone app via Bluetooth. It has a built-in camera sensor that can "see" you and follow you around on flat surfaces like airport floors. It comes with an anti-theft alarm to prevent someone carrying it away when you're not looking, and it has a backup(备用) battery that you can use to charge all your devices.
"It can follow and carry things for people around while communicating with their smart phone, and avoiding obstacles(障碍)," explained Alex Libman, founder of NUA Robotics. "We're combining sensor network, computer vision, and robotics. So if you download our app, press the 'follow me' button, the luggage recognizes its user and knows to follow and communicate."
NUA is still testing the device and trying to improve features like speed and customization(客户定制), but they hope to make the suitcase available to customers in a year's time. If it proves successful, they want to use the Bluetooth pairing technology to automate lots of other devices, like shopping carts at the supermarket. These devices are especially meant to be useful to the physically disabled and elderly. "Any object can be smart and robotic," Libman told Mashable. "We want to bring robots into everyday life."
The Israeli tech company made it clear that the finished product will look just like a regular suitcase. They're planning to partner with a carry-on luggage maker, since the device that makes it "smart" weighs just 2.5 pounds and can be fitted on old-fashion luggage.
With NUA's smart suitcase, it isn't a burden to carry around heavy luggage. But how will their invention handle tough obstacles like stairs? It will be interesting to wait.
【1】According to the passage the "smart" suitcase ______.
A.is on sale now B.can make our hands free during traveling
C.was designed by Alex Libman D.can go everywhere
【2】If you want to use this free hand suitcase, you must ______.
A.avoid obstacles B.carry a camera
C.download the app D.look at it all the time
【3】What can we learn about NUA?
A.It has improved the features of the device.
B.It will make the suitcase available to customers in a month.
C.It was founded by Mashable.
D.It wants to bring more smart and robotic devices into everyday life.
【4】Where is the article probably from?
A.Science fiction. B.Website. C.Poster. D.Textbook.
