　　A Japanese toy maker declares that they have developed a gadget that translates dog barks into human language and plans to begin selling the gadget——under the name of Bowlingual——in U. S. pet stores and gift shops this summer.

　　Tokyo-based Takara Co. Ltd. says about 300， 000 of the dog translator gadgets have been sold since it was on sale in Japan late last year. It is forecasting far bigger sales once an English language translation for dogs comes to America in August. The United States is home to about 67 million dogs， more than six times the number in Japan.

　　”We know that the Americans love their dogs so much， so we don‘t think they will mind spending $ 120 on this product， ” the Takara marketing manager said during an interview at a recent pet products conference in Atlanta.

　　Regarded as one of the coolest inventions of 2002 by Time magazine， Bowlingual is made up of a 3 - inch long wireless microphone that is fastened to a dog collar and sends out sounds to a small console (控制台) that is connected to a database (数据库). The console divides each bark into six emotional types——happiness， sadness， disappointment， anger， threat and desire——and shows common phrases， such as ”You‘re ticking me off，” that fit the dog‘s emotional state.

　　Takara says it has spent millions of dollars developing the gadget in cooperation（合作）with famous sound experts and animal behaviorists.

　　One thing that does appear certain is that the markets for animal translation products will likely remain a dog‘s world since Takara has no plans to develop a similar gadget for cats. ”They are too unpredictable (反复无常) ， ” the marketing manager said.

　　65. This passage mainly tells us that Bowlingual ___________.

　　A. was invented in Japan　　B. has developed quickly

　　C. will be sold in America　　D. sells well for its price

　　66. The underlined word ”they” in the last paragraph refers to ___________.

　　A. markets　　B. products　　C. plans　　D. cats

　　67. From the passage， we can see that Takara Co. Ltd. is ___________ the sale of its new product.

　　A. proud of　　B. satisfied with　　C. confident of 　　D. worried about

D

　　Everyone knows about straight—A students. We see them frequently in TV situation comedies and in movies like Revenge of the Nerds(《菜鸟大反攻》)，a comedy film satirizing(讽刺)social life in college. They get high grades，all right，but only by becoming dull laborers，their noses always stuck in a book. They are not good at social communication and look clumsy while doing sports.

　　How，then， do we account for Domenica Roman or Paul Melendres?

　　Roman is on the tennis team at FairmontSenior High School. She also sings in the school singing group， serves on the students’ union and is a member of the mathematics society. For two years she has kept up A’s in every subject. Melendres， a freshman at the University of New Mexico，was student-body president at Valley High School in Albuquerque. He played soccer and basketball well， exhibited at the science fair，and meanwhile worked as a reporter on a local television station. Being a speech giver at the graduation ceremony，he achieved straight A’s in his regular classes，plus rewarding points for A’s in two college-level course.
