学术交流英语-中科⼤TranscriptTranscriptSlide 1 (Introduction):Time: 15 seconds (0:00-0:15)Say:Ladies and gentlemen, good morning! I'm Wesley from the University of Science and Technology of China. It is a great honour for me to address you on this special occasion. Today I will give a presentation with the title “Bionic Contact Lens”. Slide 2 (Introduction):Time: 30 seconds (0:15-0:45)Say:Before I start my presentation, let me ask you a question. Have you ever wished that you were a superman? A superman with superior vision is able to see things very far away and has super memory that means you can never forget. Besides, a person can zoom in front of the scene with zoom capability. In other words, you could see the world around in front of your eyes as seen by protagonist in science fiction movies like Terminator and Robocop.Slide 3 (Introduction):This is now possible using Bioniccontact lens !Bionic Contact LensOne of the smallest deviceWe could simply …BLINK? and than we will be onlineThe lens have infrared lights to create a virtual displayAppearance description:Time: 40 seconds (0:45-1:25) Say: This is now possible using Bionic contact lens! We have established one of the smallest device. With this device, we would simply …BLINK? and we will be online. It?s already more science than fiction. Especially, bionic contact lenses are being developed to provide a virtual display that could have a variety of uses from assisting the visually impaired to the video game industry. What ?s more, the lens will eventually have functional electronic circuits and infrared lights to create a virtual display.Slide 4 (Introduction):“The eye of the beholder ”The beginning of the Computer Human InterfaceIt would tell you what is relevant and what to ignoreTranslation between languages at any timeComputer Human InterfaceTime: 35 seconds (1:25-2:00) Say: In next 20 years, internet will be on our contact lens as the picture shows. Bionic contact lens is this kind of device that could give a new meaning to the phrase “The eye of the beholder”. It could be the beginning of the Computer Human Interface of the future and your smart lens would tell you what is relevant and what to ignore. In addition, if someone speaks in Chinese, no problem, Bionic contact lens will translate Chinese into English subtitles underneath your picture.Slide 5 (Body):1.Generation principleConvert pieces of plastic and polymer to a functional system Antenna picks upradio frequencyenergyChip harveststhe energyTransform it intovoltage Transmitinformationdirectly on thelensTime: 40 seconds (2:00-2:40)Say:First of all, let's see how it works! Firstly, bionic contact lens converts pieces of plastic and polymer to a functional system that resemble a kind of complexity in cellular form, and antenna picks up radio frequency energy that is transmitted by an antenna elsewhere. Then, while chip harvests the energy and transforms it into voltage that can power the LED. Finally, voltage works to display directly on the lens that would transmit information directly on the lens.Slide 6 (Body):Time: 25 seconds (2:40-3:05)Say:Any advanced device has its core technology, including bionic contact lens. Bionic contact lens contains many of the most advanced technologies, such as capillary forces, Antenna, Chip, Fresnel lenses and so on. Among them, the core technology can be summarized as the following four aspects.Slide 7 (Body):Time: 50 seconds (3:05-3:55)Say:Next, let's look at the first aspect. Micro fabrication technique is used for image formation. We built the circuits from layers of metal only a few nanometers thick, about one thousandth the width of a human hair, and constructed light-emitting diodes one third of a millimeter across. Simultaneously, array of LED pixels is used in lens to form an active display. Therefore, the shape of each tiny component dictates which piece it can attach to, and a micro fabrication technique known as self-assembly.Slide 8 (Body):2)EnergyFirstly: Antenna picks up radiofrequency wavesThen: Turn them into energyFinally: Chip harvests the energyand transforms it into voltageTime: 40 seconds (3:55-4:35)Say:For the second aspect, Since this device is very small, the supply of energy is a key technical problem. As shown in this flowchart. Firstly, antenna picks up radio frequency waves and then turn them into energy that is transmitted by an antenna elsewhere. Finally, while chip harvests the energy and transforms it into voltage that can power the LED. The voltage is also a very small laser that can be used to ensure that the image is in focus at all times and eliminate the need for micro lenses.Slide 9 (Body):3) Virtual display technologyUsing a rasterdisplayDisplayed on theretina of the eyeVirtual Display ImageTime: 45 seconds (4:35-5:20)Say:Then, the third aspect is virtual display technology. A virtual retinal display, also known as a retinal scan display or retinal projector, is a display technology that draws a raster display directly onto the retina of the eye. In bionic lens, the display is floating in front of the user using virtual display technology. Certainly, it is not possible to display an image over a solid angle from a point source unless the projection system can bypass the lenses within the eye.Slide 10 (Body):4)Image technologyImage qualityFresnel lensesImage managementPixel managementTime: 60 seconds (5:20-6:20)Say:Finally, the core technology is to say that Image technology. It is mainly related to these four points on the slide. In terms of Image quality , we overcome that obstacle by precisely adjusting the angle of incoming light emitted by diodes on the contact lens. For Fresnel lenses and Image management, we tackled the limitation of the minimum focal distance of the human eye by incorporating a set of Fresnel lenses into the device. For Pixel management, we have provided the first proof-of-concept technology demonstrations for producing multipixel and in-focus images.Slide 11 (Body):Time: 45 seconds (6:20-7:05)Say:In the previous section, we have just talked about the generation of bionic contact lens and its core technology, then we talk about what are the critical applications. As shown on the slide, it consists mainly of six points. For example, zooming in on and out of distant objects- It means we would be able to zoom in on something far away or to look at something very close; And personalized wide-screen TV- It means the combination of contact lens with embedded optoelectronic and electronic devices could well be the beginning of the Computer Human Interface of the future. As time is limited, the following four points I will not explain in detail.Slide 12 (Body):Time: 40 seconds (7:05-7:45)Say:Although the application of good prospects for bionic contact lens, there are still several technical bottlenecks. First challenge is how to attach the electronic components thinner than a human hair. The next problem is building the lenses is a challenge because materials that are safe for use in the body are delicate. What?s more, how to focus on image quality and how to give power supply are both the big obstacle. In addition to these points, there are other problems we need to work hard to resolve.Slide 13 (Conclusion):Time: 25 seconds (7:45-8:10)Say:As I end,the era of bionic contact lens would soon come. According to the introduction of the previous point of view, bionic contact lens with advanced core technology has a very good application prospects. However, there are still some bottlenecks to be resolved because of the technical problems so far.Slide 14 (Conclusion):Time: 35 seconds (8:10-8:45)Say:In short, bionic contact lens has a cross-era significance. One of the most important is bionic contact lens could be the beginning of the Computer Human Interface of the future when we could surf the Web at any time or keep the information connection all the time. Furthermore, a person could record their entire life just by blinking or possibly connect their contact lenses with a wireless device, and we would witness the day when everyone has the perfect vision.Slide 15 (Conclusion):Time: 15 seconds (8:45-9:00)Say:At the end of the report, I want to give a brief account of our future work. As shown here, we are based on the three main directions for further improvement of the bionic contact lens.Thank you. Are there any questions?。

(1) "Your lips tell me 'No No,' but there is 'Yes Yes' in your eyes" is a simple but accurate way of explaining the way why eye contact and expression can give the lie to the verbal expression.(2)The degree of eye contact maintained in interpersonal communication has linked to personality traits and affective needs.(3)Ralph Exline, for example, found that women seek more direct eye contact in interaction than do men and those individuals with high affiliative tendencies need more direct eye contact.(4)Similarly, competitive personalities seem to require less eye contact in interpersonal communication.(5)In another study Exline and others found that subjects looked at interviewers least when discussing personal subjects in the attempt to conceal personal information and feelings.(6)Efran and Broughton further found that individuals with high approval/dependence needs to spend a great deal of time in direct eye contact with relevant others in interpersonal communication.Eye contact and expression plays an important role in communication between the races.(7)The famous "glare" expressing so frequently by nonwhites toward whites presents in a moment the entire history of tension and hostility between the races.(8)Such a glance, while mirroring the emotions of the nonwhite communicator, reinforces the feelings of fear and defensiveness in the white receivers.(9)Communication in interracial settings is often characterized with the actual avoidance of any type of eye contact, suggesting a dislike or distrust among the communicators.(10)People tend to feel that another cannot lie if he is confronted face to face and that, if communicator can engage in direct eye contact, he most probably has something to hide. Direct eye contact, then, must be considered as an essentialingredient in building positive interracial attitudes.答案:1 . why -> in which 6 . to spend -> spend2 . has linked -> has been linked7. expressing -> expressed3 . and those -> and that those8 . receivers -> receiver4 .

Class Policies
Ten sections (=groups of students) of this course: Attend the one you are registered for! (except to make up for a missed class)
Attendance is required. Students who miss more than two lessons (4 classroom hours) will not be allowed to take the final exam. Being late counts as missing half a lesson
Which paper will you present?
Bring to the third class of this semester a photocopy or print-out of the paper you will present for your final exam.
Choose wisely! Bad choices result in more work for you and/or a lower grade.
Teaching Methods
The course will focus on Presentation Skills
organization delivery visual aids ... so students will learn how to present a scientific paper in English using a typical international style
Purpose
This course is designed to help students develop the oral English skills necessary to present research papers using English at an international conference.
Since you have only 9 minutes to present the result, do not choose a result that is extremely complicated or long. You may choose to present only one result of a paper that has several.
We’ll consider four:
– Conference Presentation – Colloquium – Seminar – Your Exam
How long is the presentation?
Typically Conference: 20 minutes Colloquium: 60 minutes Seminar: 60 minutes
Class Policies (continued)
Students are expected to cooperate willingly
Your learning experience will be more productive if you use only English while in the classroom
Evaluation
End of the term: simulated conference
Each student will present a paper in his/her research area (9 minutes) and then answer questions from the audience (3-4 minutes).
Teachers
Murray Sherk (msherk@) Henry Kayina (hkayina@)
Office hours by appointment – arrange a time by email or after any class.
If every scientific result in the paper has already been published somewhere else, then it is a BAD paper to present.
Goals of This Course
1. Good speakers will get better
– students should listen politely and quietly whenever another student or the teacher is presenting material
– cell phones should be silent during class time (You are welcome to use them as dictionaries, but do not text/phone during class)
If the title of the paper contains any words like the following, then it is a BAD paper and you should choose a different one!
– “Summary”, – “Recent Progress in” – “Overview” – “Introduction” – “Review”
3. You will know what to aim for
What are you trying to do? Clear goals
4. You will know what mistakes to avoid
Common mistakes ruin good talks
