第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。
Imagine a group of people are talking about something happily. But there is one man who cannot follow them,because he has a hearing problem. How can we help such a person
Now a new and exciting invention called AR glasses has come out. It allows deaf people to hear conversations in real time. Deaf people are also able to join in everyday conversations by wearing AR glasses.
The AR glasses were developed by Dan Scarfe after he had Christmas dinner with his family. His 97 year old grandfather had a hearing problem.
Scarfe saw him sitting alone in silence while the rest of the family were talking excitedly. And the old man always watched TV shows with subtitles（字幕）.That situation was kept in Scarfe’s mind. Suddenly he realized that maybe the AR glasses could help.
So Scarfe started to work with Nreal,a company good at making AR glasses. Six months later,a new pair of AR glasses came out. The glasses have a microphone that receives the audio from the environment and sends it to a connected smartphone. The phone then creates subtitles from that audio and these subtitles then appear on the screen of the user’s glasses.
The company first tested the glasses in the UK.There are over 13 million adults with hearing loss. When the product works,it will change the lives of 430 million people.
This is a great change for the deaf. Mark Atkinson,a user of the AR glasses,says,"As a deaf person myself,I am amazed by this new technology. Real time subtitles made me become part of the conversation. That has never happened before."
