1．We all like fantasy stories，and grow up reading and listening to fantasies．These tales fuel our imaginations，and satisfy our longings for adventures．The most interesting thing about fantasies is that their plots involve magical beasts and heroes，animal creatures talking like humans，and other things we can't see in real life．Also，fantasies have a distinguished writing style，with freedom of expression．
Toy Fantasy
In toy fantasy stories，narrators（敘述者）bring their beloved toys to life that can live，talk，think，breathe and behave like human beings．You would see modern toy fantasies in a picture book format．Representative works are A．A．Milne's Winnie the Pooh and Carlo Collodi's The Adventures of Pinocchio．
Animal Fantasy
The animal fantasy tells tales about animals behaving like human beings，experiencing emotions，and having the ability to talk．However，animals in fantasies hold their various animal characteristics，too．Examples include The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame，Charlotte's Web by E．B．White，and The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter which influences children around the world．
Magical Fantasy
In a magical fantasy，you see a character having magical powers，or a strange magical object becomes the subject of the story．Stories of this type began widely spreading long ago，including Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and William Steig's Sylvester and the Magic Pebble．
Modern Folktales
Modern folktales are types of fantasy that narrators tell in a traditional tale accompanying some typical parts，such as strong conflict，little description of characters，and sometimes magical elements．These tales come before all others and are popular，as authors throughout history，have written them．Hans Christian Andersen has written several tales of this category including The Nightingale，The Emperor's New Clothes and Thumbelina．

3．Scientists say they have created a new device that can turn brain signals into electronic speech．The invention could one day give people who have lost the ability to speak a better way of communicating than current ones．
The device was developed by researchers from the University of California，San Francisco．Their results were recently published in a study in the journal Nature．Scientists created a "brain machine connection" that was set in the brain．The device was built to read and record brain signals that helped control the muscles to produce speech．These include the lips，tongue and jaw．
The study involved five volunteer patients who were being treated for epilepsy （癲癇）．The individuals had the ability speak and already had electrodes （電極） set in their brains．The volunteers were asked to read several hundred sentences aloud while the researchers recorded their brain activity．
The researchers used audio recordings to reproduce the vocal （發(fā)聲的） muscle movement which is the key to producing human speech．Future studies will test the technology on people who are unable to speak．
The study reports the reproduced sentences were understandable to hundreds of human listeners asked to write out what they heard．The listeners were able to write out 43 percent of sentences with perfect accuracy．
Edward Chang is a professor of the university's Well Institute．He was a lead researcher on the project．Chang admitted that much more research of the system would be needed to reach the goal of perfectly reproducing spoken language．
（1）Who will probably benefit most from this device？
A．Those unable to hear．
B．Those unable to see．
C．Those unable to speak．
D．Those unable to write．
（2）What do we know about the "brain machine connection"？
A．It could control the muscles．
B．It could produce human speech．
C．It could transform brain signals．
D．It could read and record brain signals．
（3）Which of the following is important for production of human speech？
A．Brain activity．
B．Muscle control．
C．Audio recording．
D．Vocal muscle movement．
（4）In which section of a newspaper may this text appear？
A．Science．
B．Fashion．
C．Education．
D．Entertainment．組卷：9引用：4難度：0.7
