32、may interfere with heart pacemakers (起搏器 ) and implantable defibrillators (除颤器 ) , U.S. researchers said. The MP3 players themselves posed no threat to pacemakers and defibrillators, used to normalize heart rhythm. But strong little magnets inside the headphones can foul up the devices if placed wit

33、hin 1.2 inches of them, the researchers told an American Heart Association meeting in New Orleans. Dr. William Maisel of the Medical Device Safety Institute in Boston led a team that tested eight models of MP3 player headphones, including clip-on and earplug types, in 60 defibrillator and pacemaker

34、patients. They placed the headphones on the patients chests, directly over the devices. The headphones interfered with the heart devices in about a quarter of the patients-14 of the 60-and interference was twice as likely in those with a defibrillator than with a pacemaker. Another study presented a

35、t the meeting showed that cellular phones equipped with wireless technology known as Bluetooth are unlikely to interfere with pacemakers. A pacemaker sends electrical impulses to the heart to speed up or slow heart rhythm. The magnet, however, could make it deliver a signal no matter what the heart

36、rate is, the researchers said. An implantable defibrillator signals the heart to normalize its rhythm if it gets too fast or slow. A magnet could de-activate it, making it ignore an abnormal heart rhythm instead of delivering an electrical shock to normalize it. The devices usually go back to workin

37、g the right way after the headphones are removed, the researchers said. “The main message here is: its fine for patients to use their headphones normally, meaning they can listen to music and keep the headphones in their ears. But what they should not do is put the headphones near their device,“ Mai

38、sel said in a telephone interview. So that means people with pacemakers or defibrillators should not place the headphones in a shirt pocket or coat pocket near the chest when they are not being used, and should not place them over their chest or have others who are wearing headphones rest their head

39、 on the patients chest, Maisel said. 51 How can MP3 digital music players hinder pacemakers and defibrillators? （ A） MP3 players can interfere with heart pacemakers and defibrillators. （ B） The magnets inside the headphones can interfere with pacemakers and defibrillators. （ C） The loud music beats

40、pose a threat to pacemakers and defibrillators. （ D） MP3 players are placed too close to pacemakers and defibrillators. 52 Dr. William Maisels tests showed that _. （ A） headphones had interference with the heart devices in every patient （ B） haft of the models of MP3 player headphones had interferen

41、ce with heart devices （ C） headphones had much stronger interference with a defibrillator than with a pacemaker （ D） headphones had much stronger interference with a pacemaker than with a defibrillator 53 Bluetooth is mentioned as an example of cell phones that _. （ A） has little interference with t

42、he heart devices （ B） are used in the tests in Dr. William Maisels study （ C） are equipped with wireless technology （ D） will replace the MP3 player headphones 54 The magnets inside the headphones can cause problems by _. （ A） sending out electrical shock to damage hearts （ B） sending out signals to

43、 make hearts beat too slow （ C） sending out signals to make hearts beat too fast （ D） making the heart devices malfunction 55 People with pacemakers or defibrillators should _. （ A） never use MP3 digital music players （ B） not Use MP3 headphones （ C） not use the headphones near their hearts （ D） put

45、likely to bring about as much destruction as the credit crisis in the coming years if international regulation is not improved, some of the worlds top crime experts said. Damage caused by cyber crime is estimated at $100 billion annually, said Kilian Strauss, of the Organization for Security and Coo

46、peration in Europe (OSCE).“These criminals outsmart us ten, or a hundred to one,“ Strauss told Reuters, adding more Internet experts were needed to investigate and tackle cyber crime. Criminal organizations are exploiting a regulatory vacuum to commit Internet crimes such as computer spying, money-l

47、aundering and theft of personal information, and the scope for damage is vast, experts told a European Economic Crime conference in Frankfurt. “We need multilateral understanding, account and oversight to avoid, in the years to come, a cyber crisis equivalent to the current financial crisis,“ Antoni

48、o Maria Costa, Executive Director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, said. Internet crime is also a threat to national security, they said. Several countries, including the United States, have voiced concern over some hackers abilities to electronically spy on them and disrupt computer

49、 networks. Calls for greater regulation of the Internet come at a time of regulatory renaissance, with policymakers looking to support the powers of financial sector watchdogs in the wake of the global financial crisis. “Because of the transnational nature of identity-related crime, and especially of cyber-crime, if we do not tackle the crime everywhere we will not solve it anywhere,“ Costa said. The President of Interpol, Khoo Boon Hui, said increasingly highly t
