Police around the world have for almost 100years relied on lie detectors to help spot criminals.But there has long been much skepticism in the scientific and legal communities about the lie detector’s reliability.Hopefully,it could soon be no longer in use.

Researchers in Britain and the Netherlands have made a breakthrough,developing a more reliable method to help conduct interviews.Rather than just record changes in pulse,blood pressure,sweating and breathing,the new system involves monitoring full-body motions to provide an indicator of signs of guilty feelings.

There is a basic fact that liars tend to keep moving their hands and feet and so an all-body motion suit will pick this up.The suit contains 17sensors that record movement in 23joints up to 120times per second.

“The lie detector has been around since the 1920s and by measuring physiological stress caused by anxiety,you can only get a success rate of about 60%.”,said Ross Anderson,professor of security engineering at Cambridge University.

He said the new method,by contrast,achieved a reliability rating of over 70%and he was quite sure that they would be able to do better.In one of their experiments,the team has already achieved more than 80%.

The experiment involved 180students and employees at Lancaster University,of which half were told to tell the truth and half to lie.They were each paid ￡7.50for their participation in the 70-minute experiment,involving two test.

Some were interviewed about a computer game “Never End”that they played for seven minutes,while others lied about playing it having only been shown notes about it.

The second test involved a lost wallet containing ￡5.Some were asked to bring the wallet to a lost-and-found box while others hid it and lied about it.

“Overall,we correctly classified 82.2%of the interviewees as either being truthful or dishonest.”,the report said.

But the use of all-body suits is expensive —they cost about ￡30,000—and can be uncomfortable,so Anderson and his colleagues are now looking at low-cost alternatives.58.The researchers used the all-body motion suit to ________.A.discover people’s joint problems

B.record people’s changes in their health

C.help find out interviewees’mental activities

D.prevent liars from moving their hands and feet 59.What is the main disadvantage of the lie detector?A.It has a low success rate B.It is very uncomfortable C.It is too complex to use D.It costs a lot of money 60.How does Anderson feel about the new method?A.Confused B.Confident C.Doubtful D.Disappointed

C

Until recently,voice cloning —or voice banking,as it was then known —was a customized industry which served those at risk of losing the power of speech to cancer or surgery.Synthesizing （合成）a voice was a long and expensive process.It meant recording many phrases,each spoken many times,with different emotional emphases （重音）and in different contexts (statement,question,command and so forth),in order to cover all possible pronunciations.

A.Investments should be increased to advance voice cloning.

B.Long-term measures should be taken to popularize the idea of voice cloning.

C.Disagreements among firms about the way to treat voice cloning are getting serious.

D.Problems of voice cloning are unavoidable despite the efforts that have been made.

It is that time of the year again.Up and down the country,thousands of students stay in the library, attempting to cram（死记硬背）the information necessary to get through finals.I am one of them—a Cambridge finalist,attempting to deal with the Oxbridge stress in the only way I know:caffeine hits and reclusion（隐遁生活）.Whether you love or hate Oxbridge,the fact that these two universities provide unique learning environments is something of a double-edged sword.On the one hand,students have access to some of the best education in the world;on the other hand,the pressure that comes with this can prove damaging to them and can’t be swept under the carpet for they have to face it eventually.

Many Cambridge students find themselves trapped in a pressure of expectation,whether this comes from their supervisors or tutors,their director of studies or even from themselves.The drive towards achievement is either the key to success or to possible serious personal issues,as Mark Phippen,head of the University of Cambridge’s Counseling Service said,“There are plenty of perfectionists in Cambridge,but it can work two ways:it can push them to accomplish and to achieve,or it can get out of hand,disabling them.”

Many students say that they can’t handle it any more while working in certain libraries which are filled with other students hard at work.The competition and paranoia（多疑）are more common than what we realize or question:you can feel as if you are being judged for how much time you spend on Facebook or YouTube,or how little time you spend reading.

Too many students feel almost frustrated by the pressure to achieve but feel unable to speak about it.As everyone seems to be coping,they must also pretend to cope too.The only thing students have:tutors and supervisors regularly encourage students to avoid extracurricular activities,urging them to focus on their studies to such an extent that many find it hard to handle it.One current Cambridge tutor has been known for checking up on the activities of students involved in extracurricular theatre by searching for them on the https://www.360docs.net/doc/3d14259008.html, website,which details who is involved in certain plays each term—just in case it affects the student’s work output.

Problems arise when the pressure produces mental health issues.Problems have been brought to attention in articles primarily from Oxford’s Cherwell and Cambridge’s The Tab.The attention has made the Cambridge University Student Union set up Students Deserve Better—a campaign to handle complaints about supervisors and tutors lacking the ability to provide proper spiritual support.“When I told my supervisor about my problems with anxiety and therefore about my worries surrounding the workload she was suggesting,she said that I would probably feel less anxious once the work was done,”a finalist student called Jane said.“It shouldn’t be an accepted response in one of the world’s best universities.Their responses only worsened any feelings I had concerning my final year.”

Phippen said,“At this point the exams seem like the most important thing in the world.However,two years down the line you’ll realize that the exams you did at university aren’t very important at all,as what then becomes more important is what you have done within those two years afterwards.Finalist exams can become depressing for students studying at any university.All you must remember is that you are not alone

and you are good enough,and that a few years down the line,your ability to recount the plots of Euripides’
