New York State has passed the USA’s first state law that doesn’t allow drivers to talk on cell phones while driving. The law will begin on November 1. Drivers who are caught using cell phones will be given only warnings instead of fine (罰款) during the first month.

There are about 115 million cell phones in use in the United States and more than 6 million in New York State.

Computers can solve difficult problems and control(控制) the machine which is not simple. Many people use small computers called calculators(計算器) to deal with numbers quickly. Scientists use large computers to solve many problems at the same time. You can play games with computers, and some computers can help you learn languages.

The computer analyzes(分析) the signals and recognizes(認出) the words and then sends information about the words to the voice synthesizer. The voice synthesizer makes the sounds of the words.

To use the machine, a blind person simply opens the book and puts its face down on the scanner. The machine “reads” the words on the page. When one page is finished, the blind person turns the page and puts the book on the scanner again. The Reading Machine can read in standard(標準的) voice or in a special fast voice.
