A

Do you like travelling? On 30th March, 2011, the Chinese government decided to designate (指定) 19th May as National Tourism Day. And this year is the 16th National Tourism Day.

As we know, many Chinese love travelling. However, people’s travel habits change a lot. More and more Chinese people accept (接受) that they should not get together, not travel far, and should focus more on health. So, travelling online becomes a new way for people to see the world.

According to (根据) a study among 2,085 Chinese people, 74.8% chose to travel online. As many as 59.7% of them said that they had a good experience of travelling online. 84.1% of them said it made their travel experience richer. And especially for visiting museums, many people added that travelling online helped them know more about the world.

In fact, the option of travelling online was there even before, but it has developed further these years. “Through technology (科技), online travel becomes a new way of travelling and it gives people more possible ways of showing the content (内容) of tourism,” said Li Baiwen, a professor at the School of Tourism of Beijing Union University.

Video calls are common now. But have you ever imagined touching the person on the other end of the line? Scientists are making this possible.

To create this faraway touch, researchers have invented a device called SSD．It can feel touch on the skin. Scientists put the SSD into a thin glove. Inside the glove, there are soft artificial “muscles”. They really feel like humans’ real ones. These “muscles” move an actuator (触器), and the actuator pulls your skin lightly in three directions. One small pull can tell you lots of information, such as how strong, what direction, how powerful and even the shape of the touch. In this way, the glove sends clear 3D touch messages to your skin, without the help of pictures or sounds.

How does it work? Suppose you make a video call with a friend. Both of you wear the special SSD gloves. When your friend picks up a thing, his glove gets soft pressure (压力) on his finger. It sends it to your glove. Your glove copies the same pressure, so you feel the thing just as your friend does.

________ However, in the near future, they will be useful in many fields. We can feel hugs from family far away. Doctors can use them to check faraway patients. Students may “feel” lab tools in online science classes.

Soon, video calls will not only let us see each other. We can even feel handshakes through the screen!

A．It can send pictures and sounds quickly.

18．What does your glove do after it receives the pressure?

A．It picks up the thing. B．It copies the same pressure.

C．It makes a video call. D．It sends pictures.

A．The gloves are ready in the market for us now.
