Deborah Withington of Sound Alert says that the alarms use most of the frequencies that canbe【C6】______by humans. "It is a burst of white noise【C7】______people say sounds likestatic on the radio," she says. " Its life-saving potential is great. "
She conducted an experiment in which people were filmed by thermal-imaging cameras tryingto find their way out of a large【C8】______ room. It【C9】______them nearly four minutesto find the door【C10】______a sound alarm, but only 15 seconds with one.
Withington studies how the brain【C11】______ sounds at the university. She says that the【C12】______ of a wide band of frequencies can be pinpointed more easily than the source of anarrow band. Alarms【C13】______the same concept have already been installed on emergency vehicles.
The alarms will also include rising or falling frequencies to indicate whether people should goup【C14】______ down stairs. They were【C15】______ with the aid of a large grant from BritishNuclear Fuels.
【C10】
选项
A、with
B、at
C、without
D、over
答案
C
解析
后半句的one指上半句中的a sound alarm。该句上半句和下半句由but连接,表示相反的意思,从后半句的with可以看出,两个相对比的事物是:the door without a sound alarm和the door with a sound alarm,所以选择C。
