It might sund like magic, but in February,a paralyzed(瘫痪的) patient was able t drink
water n his wn by cntrlling a special glve with his brain. The glve then acted as his hand.
This was a success in brain-machine interface(BMI,脑机接口) technlgy made by a team f
Chinese scientists and dctrs.
BMI refers t creating a cnnectin between the human brain and external devices(外部设备), making cmmunicatin between the brain and cmputers. Fr paralyzed peple, BMI can
allw them t mve and d simple things by themselves.
On Oct 24,2023,the team put a BMI chip(芯片) in the patient's head. The chip can receive neural signals(神经信号) frm the brain.
After three mnths f hme recvery training, the patient can nw use his brain signals t
cntrl a special glve pwered by air pressure. This helps him d things like drinking water n his wn.
BMI technlgy usually means putting chips directly nt the patient's brain. Hwever, this prject is minimally invasive(微创的), making sure the patient's brain is nt harmed. S it is an imprtant achievement. It als uses a wireless pwer supply(无线电源), s the implanted(植入的) device desn't need a battery.
Li Yuanning frm ShanghaiTech University tld CCTV News that BMI is nw mainly used in the medical field t imprve the lives f peple with brain-related prblems r speech difficulties.
In China, BMI technlgy is still in the early stages f research, with n prducts n the
market yet. Sme peple are wrried that tests may influence patients' independence(独立）and even wh they are. Ethical cncerns(伦理问题) related t BMI als need t be sled. These
include whether the patient has a clear understanding f what is ging n when they agree t take
part in the test.
What is China's recent success in BMI?
A BMI chip was successfully put int a patient's brain.
BMI helped a paralyzed patient drink water n his wn.
A paralyzed patient can mve freely with a BMI chip.
A paralyzed patient can cmmunicate with cmputers.
What is the external device in the recent experiment?
A BMI chip.B. A neural signal.
C. The brain.D. An air pressure-pwered glve.
56. What is the advantage f the new BMI technlgy?
A. It desn't harm patients' brains.
B. It desn' t need any pwer.
C. It understands patients' needs crrectly.
D. It helps peple imprve their speech skills.
57. What d we knw frm the last paragraph?
A. Many peple are against BMI technlgy.
B. The tests f BMI are at high risk f failure.

①Have yu ever played a cmputer game fr a lng time and then kept seeing the game's images(图像) afterward? This happened t me with the classic shape-falling game Tetris(俄罗斯方块), created in 1985 by Alexey Pajitnv. Feeling stressed ne evening, I turned n my Switch t find a game t play and relax with. That;s when I discvered Tetris. Befre I knew it, I was bsessed. Even when I stpped, my brain was still playing, with the blcks falling in my mind. I stacked(堆叠) tgether. I even dreamed abut Tetris. I was experiencing the cmmn “Tetris effect”.

Tetris, being a game that technically never ends, keeps yu thinking f the game's unfinished task, reprted Tech Times. And the catchy music stays with yu,t.
③There are advantages f the Tetris Effect. In his 1991 study, psychlgist Richard Haier at the University f Califrnia fund that keeping playing Tetris lead t the thickness f the cerebral crtex(大脑皮层) increasing, which imprves brain efficiency(效率), reprted psychlgy website Practical Pie. Haier's discvery gt Tetris put int the Guinness Wrld Recrds Vide Gamer's Editin 2008, as the “first vide game t be prven t imprve brain functining(功能) and efficiency”.
④Tetris has als been researched fr use as a treatment fr peple suffering frm trauma(创伤). The Yale Scientific Magazine reprted that researchers at Jhn Radcliffe Hspital in Oxfrd, UK, fund that playing Tetris seemed t reduce intrusive(侵入性的) memries fr persns influenced by traffic accidents.
