  6. 根据材料请回答下列各

    While Jennifer was at hose taking an online exam for her business law class, a monitor(监控器)a few hundred miles away was watching her every move.

    Using a web camera equipped in Jennifer’s Los Angeles apartment , the monitor in Phoenix tracked how frequently her eyes moved form the computer screen and listened for the secret sounds of a possible helper in the room.

  8. What can be inferred about David?
