A Doctor in the House
Brushing your teeth twice a day should keep the dentist away. But if a group of scientific researchers have their wish,it will make the rest of your body healthy too.______(1)It is one of many gadgets(小装置)proposed by engineers and doctors at the Center for Future Health in New York一others include a pair of glasses that help to jog your memory,and a home camera designed to check for cancer.
The devices seem fanciful,but the basic principles are simple. The gadgets should make it easy for people to detect illness long before it strikes and so seek treatment far earlier than normal.______(2)In the long run,the technology may even prevent illness by encouraging us to lead healthier lives.
Intelligent bandages(绷带)are a good example. Powerful sensors within the bandage could quickly identify tiny amounts of bacteria in a wound and determine which antibiotics(抗生素)would work best.______(3)
Socks are long overdue for a makeover. In the future they will be able to automatically detect the amount of pressure in your foot and alert you when an ulcer(溃疡)is coming up. All the projects should have far-reaching implications,but the biggest single develop-ment is a melanoma(黑瘤)monitor designed to give early warnings of cancer.______(4)If a problem is found,the system would advise you to get a check-up at your doctor's surgery.
If all this sounds troublesome,then help is at hand.______(5)A standard computer would be able to understand your voice and answer questions about your symptoms in plain
English and in a way which would calm your nerves.

______(4)
A: Experts are also working on a“digital doctor”,complete with a comforting bedside manner.
B: Instead of relying on hi-tech hospitals,the emphasis is shifted to the home and easy- to-use gadgets.
C: The cut could then be treated instantly,so avoiding possible complications.

F: A toothbrush that checks blood sugar and bacteria while you brush is currently in de- velopment in USA.

相似考题
参考答案和解析
答案:E
解析:
上文说到刷牙的好处,下文接着说“这是工程师和医生们提出的多种小装置中的一种”,也就是说这一句应该引出一种与刷牙有关的小装置,故选F。
短文第二段承接第一段提到这些小仪器听起来很神奇,但原理其实十分简单,它们能够帮助人们尽早地预防和治疗疾病。最后一句提到“长远来看,这种技术能通过鼓励人们以健康的方式生活,从而预防疾病的发生。”可以推断,两者之间应该补充与这种技术相关的更多信息,故选A。
短文第三段举了绷带的例子来说明这种技术是怎样发挥作用的:“绷带里面强大的传感器能够快速地鉴定伤口里面细菌的数量,然后确定最有效的杭生素”,由此推断,下面应该接着说处理的结果,故选C。
上文提到最重要的一项发明是黑瘤监控器,用于癌症的早期预警。下文提到“如果发现问题,系统将提示你到医生的诊疗室做检查”,可见两者之间添加的内容应该是关于这种监控器怎么发挥作用的,故选E。
短文第六段第一句提到“如果这些听起来都很麻烦,那么帮助近在手边”,后面说道怎么利用电脑来为自己答疑解惑,由此推断,此处需要一个转折句,将重点由高科技转到常见设备,故选B。
