33、may have an advantage.Visible light communication(VLC)uses rapid pluses of light totransmit information wirelessly.Now it may be ready to compete withconventional Wi-fi.In a recent TED talk,Harald Hasas from the University ofEdinburge,UK demonstrated one VLC prototype(原型），“Li-Fi,transmitting a video
34、 from a store-bought LED lamp to a solar cell toa laptop.“Li-Fi is essentially the same as Wi-Fi,except for a smalldifference-we use LED lights around us to transmit the datawirelessly as opposed to using radio,Haas says.Once established,VLC could solve some major communicationproblems.In 2009,the U

36、to replaced with LED ones that transmit data,says Haas.The idea of transmitting data through the visible light spectrumis not Graham Bell transmitted sound via a beam of sunlight in 1880using a photo phone,a sort of solar-powered wireless telephone.Inthe past several decades,a number of researchers
37、have looked atusing visible light to transmit data.But what Haas seized on is the use of simple LED light bulbs fordata transmission.LED bulbs are controlled by a driver,which canrapidly di the light or turn it on or off.Therefore,Haas figured,data could be encoded in subtle shifts of the lights bri
38、ghtness.Eventually,he creaded a working transmitter and receiver system withan IKEA lamp and a solar panel.Li-Fi stands to be much faster than Wi-Fi.According to Haasresearch,Li-Fi can achieve data density 1000 times greater than Wi-Fi,because Li-Fi signals are contained in a small area,as opposed t
39、othe more diffuse(分散的)，radio system wouldnt mean having to9keep your lights on all the time either,Haas says-bulbs could bedimmed to such a point that they appear off,but still transmit data.Now,Haas team hopes that Li-Fi could make its way into homesin a few years.The system can easily network any

42、that_A.mobile devices will consume more dataB.radio-frequency bandwidth needs to be freed up.C.VLC might solve the spectum crisis.D.the world has a complete lighting infrastructure.60.The underlined phrased“seized on“in the passage is closet inmeaning to“_”A distinguished B.exploited C.created D.fig

44、 these words at a parent,whois hurt and annoyed.How can her own child say these thingsShes worked hard getting to know him,learning to read his feelingsfrom his voice and gestures.How can her own child now say to her,“You dont know who I really am”Nothing shakes a parents confidence as much as the s
45、tarting ofa childs adolescence.The communication that has flowed easilythrough words,glance and touch becomes a minefield(雷区)Recent discoveries that the human brain undergoes specific anddramatic development during adolescence offer new“explanations”ofteen behavior,particularly of the impulsiveness(
46、冲动)of teenagers.During this development,there may be too many synapses(神经元突触)for the brain to work efficiently,the mental capacities of decision-10making,judgment and control are not mature until the age of twenty-four.An old explanation is that anger hormones account for theapparently unreasonable
47、moodiness(情绪化)of teens.Though hormonesdo play a role in human feelings,the real task of adolescence,andthe real cause of the unrest,is the uncertainty of teenagers aboutwho they are,alongside their eagerness to establish a sense ofidentity.This involves self-questioning,self-discovery and self-devel
48、opment across a range of issues,including sex,faith,intellectand relationships.A sense of who we are is not a mere luxury;without it we feel worthless.A teen often looks upon his or herfriends sa models:“I dont know who I am,but I know who he is,Ill be like him,”is the underlying thought.Parents als
49、o becomesuch mirrors:teens want that mirror to reflect back to them thevividness and clarity they themselves do not feel.Arguments with parents can often be understood in this context.While those common teenager-parent quarrels,which explode every fewdays,are often over small things such as homework
50、,housework,andrespect;a teenagers real focus is on a parents recognition ofhis maturity and capability and human value.“No,you cant go outtonight,”implies that a parent you got your keys?”or“Do youhave enough money for the bus?”are questions that can be easilyaccepted if asked by a concerned friend,
