微阶段刷题过关卷(三) (时间：65分钟　分值：70分) UNIT 2　LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE Reading and Thinking, Learning About Language & Using Language (1) 第Ⅰ卷(满分32.5分) Ⅰ. 阅读理解(共8小题；每小题2.5分，满分20分) A A new Magic Bench designed by Disney Research lets you interact (互动) with lovely animated (动画的) character — and no special glasses or earphones are required. Instead, the complete environment — the seat, the sitter and the cartoon characters — is mirrored on a screen opposite the bench making it possible for others to watch the scene unfold. How does the illusion work? A camera and sensor catch images and gather depth information about physical objects — the bench and the person. And then a computer translates them into the 3D animations. Meanwhile sensors of touch built into the bench deliver shaking that is happening at the same time and speed to animated actions on the screen, creating the illusion that the animated figures are occupying real­world space next to the user. “Our goal for this project was：hear characters coming, see them enter the space, and feel them sit next to you，” said Moshe Mahler, principal digital artist at Disney Research. Unlike the traditional mobile technology, one of whose limitations is that only a single user can see its illusion, the Magic Bench allows groups of people to gather in a single environment and collectively participate in an augmented­reality (增强现实) experience, all at the same time. In a video show, a small cartoon donkey runs into view and kicks the bench, causing sharp sound and making the seated person jump in surprise. Another test shows two people on the bench, reacting as they “feel” an animated rabbit skip up beside them and jump up and down. When a user passes his hand over the rabbit, a shadow moves across its head, as though it were occupying the same physical space as the person next to it. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。迪士尼公司设计出了一种新的“魔法椅”。人们坐上这种椅子不需要使用特殊眼镜或耳机，在观看影视作品时就可以与动画人物互动。 1.
