But the glasses are an important tool for him which have helped him talk and join in conversations in ways that he had never been able to before.These glasses transcribe the words 5/8 someone is saying and show the text on his glasses. Real-time captioning (is not a totally new technology.People who are deaf or hard of hearing usually use apps to transcribe a conversation as they're having it.But having to ping-pong between the person they're talking with and their phone can be uncomfortable and tiring.However, having captions in front of your eyes can change the situation. While live-captioning glasses could be an unbelievably powerful tool for millions of people, they are not a complete solution.For many people with hearing loss,understanding a friend in a crowded restaurant is a bad dream.Similarly,live-captioning software struggles to transcribe correct conversation in these spaces.Background noise remains a big problem that these glasses do not yet fully solve. Many people who are deaf or hard of hearing are excited by this technology,but some see it as a danger to requests for sign language interpreters(手语翻译).Captions do not show a speaker's feelings or voice changes;interpreters can give all background information. 57.Paul Shuttleworth bought a pair of expensive glasses to A.improve his eyesight B.make himself look handsome C.prove he was very rich D.help himself in communication 58.The underlined word ping-pong in the 3rd paragraph means a(an)_ A.sport B.Fall C.action D.person 59.The 4th paragraph muinly tells us about A.where living-captioning glasses can be used B.what challenge living-captioning glasses face C.how living-captioning glasses can work better D.who would love to buy living-captioning glasses 60.We can infer from the passage that A.the new glasses may be dangerous to users D.interpreters can change the speaker's feelings C.live-captioning glasses are important tools for everyone D.technologies cannot completely take the place of humans 第二节：阅读下面短文，从矩文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项， 使短文通顺连贯，其中有两项是多余选项。 Travel study,a new way to spend your holiday.
