Would you buy a car that released calming smells into the air when you are stuck in heavy traffic? Would you buy a robot that smells like a human being?
Many people have seen the 3-D computer-made environments of virtual (虚拟的) reality (VR). Now these virtual worlds will not just look and sound real. Researchers have created VR environments that even smell like the real things. With the new technology, users open a virtual door and step into a new environment, like a rainforest. After they enter this virtual world, special equipment releases forest-like smells into the air to make the experience seem more real.
Suzanne Fisher-Murray said, "It is a really wonderful experience that you have because you, re-exploring this environment and you have smells with it."
In the United States, Smell-O-Vision was designed to provide smells during the showing of a movie. The Smell-O-Vision system was once popular in the 1960s. Now, Emanuela Maggioni says it is close to becoming popular again. "The connection with emotions, memories, and ... the sense of smell," Maggioni said. "It is unbelievable what we can do with technology."
The uses for smell technology are not just limited to films and the performing arts. Researchers showed a computer program where users could imagine themselves driving a car. The system included a special smell- spraying machine. Dmitrijs Dmitrenko said, "We want to deliver the smell of lavender (薫衣草) every time the person drives over the speed limit. We choose lavender because it’s a very calming smell."
Scientists are experimenting with smell instead of sounds or image-based alerts on telecommunications equipment. And businesses are already using smell to influence people’s behavior. "Not only...in stores…But on the other side, you can create and stimulate (刺激) immediate buying," Maggioni said. "So you’re in a library and you smell coffee and actually you are unconsciously having the need to drink a coffee."
1.What can researchers make VR environments do by using smell technology?
A. Have a smell of a rainforest. B. Even smell like real ones.
C. Look like a 4-D environment. D. Impress people with a virtual world.
2.The example of Smell-O-Vision proves that ____________.
A. America is the first to use smell technology
B. cinemas are the most suitable for smell sense

3.How is smell technology used by businessmen?

高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
At times we all get angry when we are driving. It might be because we are stuck in a traffic jam or stuck behind a very slow driver. It might be because we think another driver has done something very stupid and dangerous. Whatever the reason, it seems that getting angry in a car is something which happens more and more often and there is now a special term for it “road rage”. Some experts even think that road rage is a kind of mental illness! How can we recognize this “illness” of road rage?
There are two kinds of road rage: aggressive driving and aggressive reactions to the way other people are driving. Aggressive driving can take different forms:
●Driving much faster than the speed limit.
●Increasing your speed very quickly.
●Driving very close behind the car in front and sounding the horn or flashing the headlights.
●Changing lanes very suddenly and blocking another car.
●Moving into a parking space where another car is trying to park.
There are also different reactions to the way other people are driving. These include:
●Making rude signs at people.
●Shouting at people and threatening them.
●Deliberately driving into another person’s car.
●Hitting somebody.
●Using a weapon such as a baseball bat, or even a gun or a knife.
Road rage is certainly not a joke. There have been incidents of road rage which have led to serious injuries and even murder.
Experts think that one reason for road rage is that films show a lot of examples of fast and aggressive driving such as car chases where this kind of driving seems to be positive.
Experts also think that the punishments for dangerous driving are not serious enough.
Experience shows that driving problems can be controlled, but it takes a long time. In the UK in the last 30 years, the police have been quite successful in reducing the number of people who drink and drive. They are now working to stop people using mobile phones when they are driving. Let’s hope they can have the same success with the road rage.
1.Which of the following statements does NOT describe aggressive driving?
A.Driving much faster than the speed limit. |
B.Drinking and driving |
C.Moving into a parking space where another car is trying to park. |
D.Changing lanes very suddenly and blocking another car. |
2.Road rage happens possibly because______.
A.the drivers are drunk |
B.it won’t cause serious injuries or death |
C.we’re in a fast-changing society |
D.the punishments are not serious enough |
3.What’s the tone(语气)of the last paragraph?
