Question

【題目】 Recently, HUAWEI, one of China's best high-tech companies, has launched(發(fā)布) an app called StorySign, that will make it easier for deaf children to read stories.

Some AI skills from HUAWEI are used in the app. They help deaf children read by turning written text into sign language. A character called Star in the app makes it easier to use the app.

Users can also choose a book from the app's library that is then shown in sign language using cartoon characters. The first book on the StorySign platform(平臺) is the popular children's book Spot the Dog.

The developers tried to make the app's main character Star popular with both boys and girls. Star also wears a hearing aid(助聽器).

“We created StorySign to make it possible for families with deaf children to enjoy an exciting story time,” said Andrew Garrihy, Huawei's CMO for Western Europe. “We hope that by reminding people to understand deaf children better, they'll be encouraged to support one of the charity partners we are working with across Europe.”
