3D comes home
Have you had this experience? You are watching a movie. A man is shooting on the screen. The picture is so real that you think he is shooting at you. Or a car is speeding on the screen and at one point you are afraid it will hit you.
Three-dimensional (3D)films use special technology to make pictures seem more real and exciting than two-dimensional ones. Two popular movies in the cinema this year, UP and Ice Age; Dawn of the Dinosaurs both use 3D technology.
So far we can only see 3D films in the cinema with a special screen and projector. But soon, we will be able to watch them in our living rooms. Last month, the Japanese company Sony told reporters that it plans to bring 3D televisions to homes in 2010. The company is also hoping to make other products with 3D, like laptops and PS3.
“ The 3D train is on the track, and we are ready to drive it home,” said Sony President Sir Howard Stringer.
How 3D technology works
Three dimensional movies and TV programs are fun to watch, but do you know how they are made? It is much easier to understand if we do an experiment.
Hold one of your fingers up at arms length and close one eye. Then try closing the other eye. As you switch between open eyes you should see your finger “jumping” left and right against the background.
This happens because our two eyes are about 4 cm away from each other. The separation causes each eye to see the world from a different angle. The brain puts these two views together. What you see becomes three-dimensional.
Three dimensional movies are made using two video cameras at the same time, which creates two different images. When the movie plays in a cinema, two projectors put the two images on the screen. With a pair of 3D glasses, the two images are separated and each image only enters one eye. Your brain puts the two pictures back together, and the pictures on the screen become three-dimensional.

A. They’ve got a train to take 3D films back home
B. They are ready to bring 3D technology to homes

首先請閱讀下列GPS的信息:
A.TomTom One 125-GPS Receiver
The TomTom One 125 isn’t the newest or flashiest portable navigation device on the market, but that’s OK. Not everyone needs the latest or greatest. What the One 125 offers is a solid, entry-level GPS for first time buyers or for those looking for the most basic navigation function.
Price: $98.00---$179.99
B. Garmin Nuvi 880
As we’ve come to expect from the Nuvi line, the Garmin Nuvi 880 offers an impressive feature list and solid performance, but it’s the accurate speech recognition that really pushes the Nuvi 880 over the gdge and makes it one of the best GPS we’ve tested to date.
Price :$599.95
C. NA1/4vi 200-270
Tis affordable entry-level personal travel assistant comes with preloaded maps for the continental U. S. Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. For even more mapping options, NA1/vi 250 features preloaded maps for all of North America, while the transatiantic NA1/4vi 270 includes preloaded maps for both continents. Like all nuvi 200-series members, the 200 features an easy-to-use colorful touchscreen and ultra-slim design---perfect for everyday navigation.

Price: $480.00
E. Navigon 7200T
The Navigon 7200T offers an attractive design and plenty of features, including voice address entry, 3D landmark renderings, text‐to‐speech functionality, and integrated Bluetooth.The user interface and maps still aren’t as clean as a Garmin or a TomTom, but performance has improved and address entry by voice can be quite accurate with some training.
Price: $ 149.99—$ 339.95
F.Mio C520 Navigation Receiver
The sleek Mio C520 is a good‐value GPS devise, packing in advanced navigation features, a large screen, and other extras for an affordable price.It is even sleek enough that we’d use it as a video player.Our only complaint is that we think you can get a slightly better experience and smoother performance from competing systems.
Price: $ 349.99
以下是車主的購買意向。請把車主與其想購買的 GPS匹配起來。
