Passage 1
A baby may fall back asleep at 2 am to a gentle songbut new music designed to help adults relax sounds rather different from Rockabye Baby
Bostonbased startup Sync Project uses biometrics (生物统计学) to play music that fits your moodIts Unwind app measures your heart beat via your smartphone and uses these readings to play different songs by UK band Marconi UnionAfter listeningyou take a brief survey on how relaxed you feel
Music can be used for everyday wellness as well as for clinical applications says Sync Project cofounder Ketki KaranamThe state of sleep and relaxation was an obvious place to startWe decided to start by focusing on relaxation as we felt that was one area where people were using music to calm themselves down or relax she says
As well as the Unwind appthe company plans to collect biometric data from attendees at an overnight performance of composer Max Richter’s 8hour album Sleepdesigned to help people nod offin London next monthConcertgoers will be invited to wear activitytracking OURA ringswhich also measure heart rate and body temperatureIn additionthe volunteers will wear the rings while going to sleep at homewith and without the help of Richter’s music
By analyzing these readingsthe Sync Project team finally aims to develop its own artificial intelligencebased tools that will use music to improve general wellbeing and even treat clinical conditions
Music has certain obvious ways it can excite or relax usbut there are limits and it certainly can’t replace real treatments says David Eagleman at Stanford University in Californiawho was an adviser to Richter on the Sleep album
Music can help with insomnia (失眠症) or pain reliefsays Kevin Morgandirector of the Clinical Sleep Research Unit at Loughborough UniversityUKThat saidif the presenting insomnia is so mild’ it can be effectively managed with Spotify (which gives you access to millions of songs)it’s unlikely to have been a major clinical problem in the first place he says
1What can users benefit from the Unwind app
AHave a health check
BPrevent heart attack
CFall asleep quickly
DBecome calm
2What does the Sync Project team want to find by analyzing the biometric data
AHow babies fall back to sleep quickly
BHow music might affect sleep and relaxation
CHow body temperature changes during the night
DHow music tools help people appreciate music
3Which of the following does Kevin Morgan probably agree with
AMusic only works on mild insomnia
BInsomnia isn’t a clinical condition at all
CMusic can’t be used for clinical applications
DMild insomnia cured by music doesn’t require medical help

One example of a biorobot is a flying robot that is based on the movements of beesThe robotnamed Carltonwas developed by the German Research Center for Artificial IntelligenceBuilt to be both light and powerfulit can hover like a bee in tight spaces and also change direction without losing speedThis robot’s abilities make it very useful for military and police search and rescue missionsFor exampleCarlton can hide behind a tall wallrise up to quickly look at what is on the other sideand then hide againIt can also send video images of what it sees to soldiers in a safe location far away

A third robotbased on cockroachesalso has several usesSprawl was designed by a research team at Stanford University to take videos and recover small objectsLike many sixlegged robotsSprawl was made to move like an insectHoweverSprawl is uncommonly fast and strong for its sizejust like a real cockroachThese characteristics make it particularly useful for military situations in which an enemy might try to disable itIt is very difficult to shoot because it moves quickly and is relatively smallEven if an enemy shoots Sprawlit can usually keep functioning
