Technology Transfer in Germany

When it comes to translating basic research into industrial success,few nations can
match Germany.Since the 1940s,the nation's vast industrial base has been fed with a
constant stream of new ideas and expertise from science.And though German prosperity
（繁荣）has faltered（衰退）over the past decade because of the huge cost of unifying east
and west as well as the global economic decline , it still has an enviable（令人羡慕的)
record for turning ideas into profit.
Much of the reason for that success is the Fraunhofer Society,a network of research
institutes that exists solely to solve industrial problems and create sought-after technologies.
But today the Fraunhofer institutes have competition.Universities are taking an ever larger r
ole in technology transfer,and technology parks are springing up all over.These efforts
are being complemented by the federal programmes for pumping money into start-up companies,
Such a strategy may sound like a recipe for economic success,but it is not without its
critics.These people worry that favouring applied research will mean neglecting basic
science,eventually starving industry of fresh ideas.If every scientist starts thinking like an
entrepreneur（企业家）,the argument goes , then the traditional principles of university
research being curiosity-driven,free and widely available will suffer.Others claim that
many of the programmes to promote technology transfer are a waste of money because half
the small businesses that are promoted are bound to go bankrupt within a few years.
While this debate continues,new ideas flow at a steady rate from Germany's research
networks,which bear famous names such as Helmholtz,Max Planck and Leibniz.Yet it is the
fourth network,the Fraunhofer Society,that plays the greatest role in technology transfer.
Founded in 1949,the Fraunhofer Society is now Europe's largest organisation for
applied technology,and has 59 institutes employing 12,000 people.It continues to grow.
Last year,it swallowed up the Heinrich Hertz Institute for Communication Technology in
Berlin.Today,there are even Fraunhofers in the U.S. and Asia.

The Fraunhofer Society is the largest organisation for applied technology in
A:Asia.
B: U.S.A.
C:Europe.
D:Africa.

考题 共用题干 Special EffectsWhat are special effects? Do you enjoy movies that use a lot of special effects Dinosaurs（恐龙） from the distant past?Space battles from the distant future!There has been a revolution in special effects,and it has transformed the movies we see.The revolution began in the mid 1970s with George Lucas's Star Wars,a film that stunned（使震惊）audiences. That revolution continues to the present, with dramatic changes in special-effectstechnology.The company behind these changes is Lucas's Industrial Light&Magic(ILM).And the man behind the company is Dennis Muren,who has worked with Lucas since Star Wars.Muren's interest in special effects began very early.At the age of 6,he was photographing toy dinosaurs and spaceships.At 10,he had an 8 millimeter movie camera and was making these things move through stop-motion.(Stop-motion is a process in which objects are shot with a camera, moved slightly,shot again,and so on.When the shots are put together,the objects appear to move. )Talk to Muren and you'll understand what ILM is all about:taking on new challenges.By 1989,Muren decided he had pushed the old technology as far as it would go.He saw computer graphics（图像）(CG) technology as the wave of the future and took a year off to master it.With CG technology,images can be scanned into a computer for processing,for example,and many separate shots can be combined into a single image.CG technology has now reached the point, Muren says,where special effects can be used to do just about anything so that movies can tell stories better than ever before. The huge success of Jurassic Park and its sequel（续集）,The Lost World,the Stars of which were computer-generated dinosaurs,suggests that this may very well be true.At the age of 10,Muren was able to use computer graphics technology to make things move.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned

考题 共用题干 第三篇Technology Transfer in GermanyWhen it comes to translating basic research into industrial success,few nations can match Germany.Since the 1940s,the nation's vast industrial base has been fed with aconstant stream of new ideas and expertise from science.And though German prosperity （繁荣）has faltered（衰退）over the past decade because of the huge cost of unifying east and west as well as the global economic decline,it still has an enviable record for turning ideas into profit.Much of the reason for that success is the Fraunhofer Society,a network of research institutes that exists solely to solve industrial problems and create sought-after technologies.But today the Fraunhofer institutes have competition.Universities are taking an ever larger role in technology transfer,and technology parks are springing up all over.These efforts are being complemented by the federal programmes for pumping money into start-up companies.Such a strategy may sound like a recipe for economic success,but it is not without its critics.These people worry that favouring applied research will mean neglectingbasic science,eventually starving industry of fresh ideas.If every scientist startsthinking like an entrepreneur（企业家）, the argument goes, then the traditional principles of university research being curiosity-driven,free and widely available willsuffer.Others claim that many of the programmes to promote technology transfer are a waste of money because half the small businesses that are promoted are bound to go bankrupt within a few years.While this debate continues,new ideas flow at a steady rate from Germany's research networks,which bear famous names such as Helmholtz,Max Planck and Leibniz.Yet it is the fourth network,the Fraunhofer Society,that plays the greatest role in technology transfer.Founded in 1949,the Fraunhofer Society is now Europe's largest organisation for applied technology,and has 59 institutes employing 12,000 people.It continues to grow.Last year,it swallowed up the Heinrich Hertz Institute for Communication Technology in Berlin.Today,there are even Fraunhofers in the U.S.and Asia.The word "expertise" in line 3 could be best replaced byA:"experts".B:"scientists".C:"scholars".D:"special knowledge".

考题 问答题Practice 2　　The miracle silicon chip represents a development in the technology of mankind that over the past few years has acquired the force and significance associated with the development of hand tools or the discovery of the steam engine. Just as the Industrial Revolution took over an immense range of tasks from men’ s muscles and enormously expanded productivity, so the microcomputer is rapidly assuming huge burdens of tedious work from the human brain and thereby expanding the mind’s capacities in ways that man has only begun to grasp. With the chip, remarkable achievements of memory and execution become possible in everything from farms to banks to corporate offices.
