To transport students to and from the stores.BA world-famous Canadian author, Margaret Atwood, has created the worlds first long-distance signing device(装置), the LongPen.After many tiringfrom city to city, Atwood thought ther
26、e must be a better way to do them . She hired some technical experts and started her own company in 2004. Together they designed the LongPen. Heres how it works: The author writes a personal message and signature on a computer tablet(手写板) using a special pen. On the receiving end, in another city, a
27、 robotic arm fitted with a regular pen signs the book. The author and fan can talk with each other via webcams(网络摄像机) and computer screens。Work on the LongPen began in Atwoods basement(地下室). At first, they had no idea it would be as hard as it turned out to be. The device went through several versio
28、ns, including one that actually had smoke coming out of it. The investing finally completed, teat runs w ere made in Ottawa, and the LongPen was officially launched at the 2006 London Book Fair. From here , Atwood conducted two transatlantic book signings of her latest book for fans in Toronto and N
29、ew York City.The LongPen produces a unique signature each time because it copies the movement of the author in real time. It has several other potential applications. It could increase credit card security and allow people to sign contracts from another province. The video exchange between signer an
30、d receiver can be recorded on DVD for proof when legal documents are used.“Its really fun”, said the owner of a bookstore, who was present for one of the test runs. “Obviously you cant shake hands with the author but there are chances for a connection that you dont get from a regular book signing.Th
31、e response to the invention has not been all favorable. Atwood has received criticism from authors who think she is trying to end book tours. But she said, “It will be possible to go to places that you never got sent to before because the publishers couldnt afford it.”41. Why did Atwood decide to in
32、vent the LongPen?A. To set up her own companyB. To win herself greater popularityC. To write her books in a new wayC. To make book signings less tiring42. How does the LongPen work?A. I copies the authors signature and prints it on a book.B. It signs a book while receiving the authors signature.C. T
33、he webcam sends the authors signature to another city.D. The fan uses it to copy the authors signature himself.43. What do we know about the invention of the LongPen?A. It has been completed but not put into use.B. The basement caught fire by accident.C. Some versions failed before its test run.D. T
34、he designers were well-prepared for the difficulty.44. How could the LongPen be used in the future?A. To draft legal documents.B. To improve credit card securityC. To keep a record of the authors ideas.D. To allow author and fan to exchange videos45. What could be inferred from Paragraphs 5 and 6?A.
35、 Atwood doesnt mean to end book tours.B. Critics think the LongPen is of little useC. Bookstore owners do not support the LongPenD. Publishers dislike the LongPen for its high costC“Dad,” I say one day .take a trip. Why dont you fly and meet me?”My father had just reired. His job filled his day, his
36、 thought, his life. While he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall Peru. While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.My father sees me drfting aimlessly, nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny sta
37、mps. He wants me to settle down, but now I want him to find an adventure.He agrees to travel with me through the national parks. We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.“ What is our first stop?” asks my father.“What time is it?”“Still dont have a watch?”Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As h
38、e stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of little boy.“Unbelievable,” he says, “How was this done?”A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.We
39、 stare up and I ask myself, Would I ever devote my life to anything?No directions, I always used to hear those words in my fathers voice. Now I hear them in my own.The next day were at Yellowstone National Park, where we have a picnic.“Did you ever travel with your dad? I ask.“Only once,” he says. “
40、 I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other-but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”>The kast sebtebce-its probably the same thing Is say about my father. And what Id want my child to say about me.In Glacier National Park, my father says, “Ive never seen water so blue.”

And I wasnt in ay hurry, either, I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(), for I was bred in the tradition of going to pl
47、aces on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good days walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill.
