32、makers起搏器and implantable defibrillators除顫器，U.Sresearchers 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即the devices if placed within 1.2 inches of them, theresearchers told a

33、n 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 andear-plug types, in 60 defibrillator and pacemaker patients They placed the headphones on the patie

34、nts chests，directly over thedevicesThe headphones interfered with the heart devices in about a quarter ofthe patients一14 of the 60一and interference was twice as likely in those with a defibrillator than with a pacemaker. Another study presented at the meeting showed that cellular phones equipped wit

35、h 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 rate is, the researchers said. An implantable defibril

36、lator 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 working the right way after the headphones are removed, the

37、researchers said. The main message here is: its fine for patients to use their headphones normally, meaning the夕can listen to music and keep the headphones in their earsBut what they should not do is put the headphones near their device,，Maisel said in a telephone interview. So that means people wit

38、h 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 on the patients chest, Maisel said.51.

The magnets inside the headphones can interfere with pacemakers and defibrillators C. The loud music beats pose a threat to pacemakers and defibrillators D. MP3 players are pl

40、aced too close to pacemakers and defibrillators52. Dr. William Maisels tests showed that _. A. headphones had interference with the heart devices in every patient B.half of the models of MP3 player headphones had interference with heartdevices C. headphones had much stronger interference with a defi

41、brillator than witha pacemaker D. headphones had much stronger interference with a pacemaker than with a defibrillator53Bluetooth is mentioned as an example of cell phones that _. A. have little interference with the heart devices B. are used in the tests in Dr. William Maisels studyC. are equipped

48、lso a threat to national security, they said. Several countries, including the United States, have voiced concern over some hackers abilities to electronically spy on themand disrupt computer networks Calls for greater regulation of the Internet come at a time of regulatory renaissance, with policym

49、akers looking to support the powers of financial sector watchdogs in the wake of the global financial crisisBecause 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

50、 Interpol, Khoo Boon Hui, said increasingly highly technological gangs from Asia, Eastern Europe and Africacoming up witheversophisticated ways of swindling money from vulnerable people. He also said there was a trend of company bosses being bribed by fraudsters claiming to have guilty evidence abou

51、t their firms.Strauss, who works as Senior Program Officer at the Office of the Coordinator of OSCE Economic and Environmental activities, said Internet crime watchdogs could learn a lot from criminals willing to switch sides57.

57、reeIts hard to know who to trust these daysWhen we see people staging protests we think, Wow！These folks are passionate about their cause一otherwise, why would they stand in the rain for hours？But sometimes its a show: You and even your Congressman may have been raised to power by manipulative market

58、ers who pay serious money to hire protesters.Its a mean trick. Lets say you want to stage a political rally, but you just cant find enough people for a good turnout.
