Google's new camera, called Clips, is a smart device. It comes with a case that has a clip (夹子),
but it's not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence
to take photography out of your hands and captures moments entirely on its own!
What sets this roughly 2-inch by 2-inch camera, with a three-hour battery life and Gorilla Glass
for toughness apart is that it is specially intended for candid moments, like when a child does
something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone.
The Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms (计算程序) to help capture scenes. Those
algorithms include face recognition. "Once it learns that there's a face you see frequently, it'll try
to get nice photos of those faces," said Juston Payne, the device's product manager. And they
also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved "training it to know what happiness
looks like". The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot—like when a child's
hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.
The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no
screen for viewing or editing.
Concerned it could seem strange? Yes, Payne admitted, but he said they addressed that by
making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that it is on. Besides, unlike a
camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.
"This product is only possible because of the way that silicon(硅) has advanced," Payne said
that now they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we're
likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.
(1)What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?
A.It enables easy Internet access.
B.It is equipped with tough glass.
C.It can be worn on your clothing.

Samanta Schweblin, one of the best young Spanish language novelists nominated (提名) by
British literary magazine Granta, has visited Beijing to promote the first Chinese edition of a
collection of her short stories. The collection, Birds in the Mouth, has been translated and
published by Shanghai-based publisher Reader.
“Sometimes I hold the Chinese edition and choose a story at random and try to guess which
one it is. But it is almost impossible for me; even the length is different.” says Schweblin. “When a
book is translated into a Western language, I can at least understand some parts of my stories,
and therefore suffer some doubt about the quality of the translation. But my Chinese edition is
more like an act of faith.”

Last year, when our three-year-old great-granddaughter Kylie was taken to see Santa Claus, she
made sure to give him her wish list of toys. A week later, she ran into a different Santa in a mall.
He stopped to ask what she wanted for Christmas. Kylie was surprised and let him know: “If you
can't remember what I told you last week, how are you going to remember on Christmas Eve?”
Mary Paul, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
As my son Mike and I drove to the mall, we passed a Salvation Army Santa ringing his bell.
“Mike,” I said, “there's Santa!” He shook his head. “That's just some guy in a Santa suit,” he said.
It saddened me to think that maybe my son no longer believed in Santa, and we drove the rest of
the way in silence. At the mall, we spotted another Santa greeting young believers. Suddenly,

They say that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Well, there is one lady who believes that
it's actually chocolate. At 102 years of age, she's living proof.
According to Boonville, Indiana's Eunice Modlin, a daily dose of chocolate has been the key to a
long and healthy life. Specifically, two pieces of dark chocolate. It's not just Eunice who believes
this.
Many scientists have attributed the sweet to health benefits such as lower chances of cancer,
cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.
However, researchers believe that Eunice might be overlooking the fact that she has never
smoked or drunk alcohol in her long life, and that chocolate might not be the significant cause of
her longevity.
"There are so many other factors to her long life and chocolate isn't the only one," nutritionist

It is that time of year when people need to lock their cars. It's not because there are a lot of
criminals running around stealing cars. Rather, it's because of the good-hearted neighbors who
want to share their harvest. Especially with this year's large crop, leaving a car unlocked in my
neighborhood is an invitation for someone to stuff it full of zucchini(西葫芦).
My sister-in-law, Sharon, recently had a good year for tomatoes. She and her family had eaten
and canned so many that they began to feel their skin turn slightly red. That's when she decided
it was time to share her blessings. She started calling everyone she knew. When that failed, she
began to ask everyone in the neighborhood like a politician, eventually
finding a neighbor
delighted to have the tomatoes. "Feel free to take whatever you want," Sharon told her. She felt

It's a common belief that the roles actors play might somehow reflect their true personalities.
It's usually not true, but British actress Phoebe Waller-Bridge, 34, is an exception.
Just like Fleabag, the character she played in the comedy-drama series of the same name,
Waller-Bridge feels that her life is a mess. "It's just really wonderful to know that a dirty and
messed up woman can make it to the Emmys," she said. She may be "messed up", but Variety
magazine calls her an "all-around icon".
Last month, Waller-Bridge took home three Emmy awards for her work on Fleabag — best
writing in a comedy series, best lead actress, and best comedy series.
Her success is partly because of her family. Waller-Bridge was brought up in a free environment.

A 2018 report found that food waste would increase by a third to 2. 1billion tons by 2030.
Beyond the cost of the waste itself, thrown-away food generates a gas that contributes to climate
change.
Home delivery meal kits(盒)can reduce food waste by more than two-thirds, but suppliers need
to switch to reusable packaging to make them environmentally friendly.
Tailor-made meal kits cut waste by providing people with precise amounts of fresh
ingredients(烹饪原料)for chosen recipes, meaning leftovers are minimized. But while
the delivery services score well on reducing food waste, buying the same food ingredients from
the supermarket almost always saves energy overall simply because meal kits use so much single-use packaging. The good news is that if people have meals that are tailored for consumption,

Experts note that an unhealthy lifestyle can put you at great risk of heart disease and stroke. So
doctors urge us to eat healthy foods, get exercise, stop smoking and limit our alcohol intake. But
there is something else you can do. And it is free and easy. Smile!
Dr. Chockalingam, a heart disease specialist in Columbia, advises his patients to smile. He says a
smile may be one way to help your heart. "When we smile, the brain wiring changes. The
chemicals that are released are more positive." He says smiling is the first step in fighting physical
and emotional stress and its sometimes harmful effects on human health. This is not just New
Age advice. Several studies support his opinion.
When you feel stressed or under pressure, your body releases many natural hormones (荷尔蒙)

The number of giraffes is becoming smaller across Africa, according to the Giraffe Conservation
Foundation. The total population has dropped by 40 percent in the last 15 years. Surprisingly,
even scientists haven't given much attention to giraffes. We are learning more about their
ecology, but what we know is still way behind what we know about other species. "It's a silent
extinction," said Dr. Julian Hennessy, a wildlife scientist.
"The main reason for the smaller number of giraffes is their loss of living places," said Hennessy,
"as an increasing part of land is used for farming. But hunting also has a big influence." You might
wonder why hunters would focus on giraffes. First of all, once a giraffe is brought down, there is
lots of meat with a small amount of effort. Besides, there is another thing encouraging the

Most of us have been in this situation: You're on your way to your friend's house, then you
suddenly ask yourself,"Did I remember to turn the lights off?” For those with "smart homes",
however, this wouldn't be a problem.
Over the last few years,smart home technology has become more popular. Thanks to user-friendly products like intelligent lighting and heating controllers, people can control nearly every
electrical item in their homes from anywhere in the world.
While smart homes aren't new, companies like Philips, Amazon and Xiaomi have finally brought
automation to everyday people with affordable products like artificial intelligence(AI) speakers
and sensors.

Ten minutes of gentle exercise can immediately change how certain parts of the brain
communicate and coordinate (协调) with one another and improve memory function, according
to an encouraging new study.
The scientists invited 36 people of different ages to the lab and had them sit quietly on a fixed
bicycle for 10 minutes or, on a separate visit, pedal the bicycle at a pace so gentle that it barely
raised their heart rates. It also was short, lasting for only 10 minutes. Immediately after each
session of the sitting or slow pedaling, the people completed a computerized memory test during
which they would see a brief picture of, for instance, a tree, followed by a variety of other images
and then a new image of either the same tree or a similar one. The people would press buttons

Here is a record of the discussion about AI (artificial intelligence) conducted by several
scientists:
Scientist A: I would say that we are quite a long way off developing the AI, though I do think it
will happen within the next thirty or forty years. We will probably remain in control of technology
and it will help us solve many of the world's problems. However, no one really knows what will
happen if machines become more intelligent than humans. They may help us, ignore us or
destroy us. I tend to believe AI will have a positive influence on our future lives, but whether that
is true will be partly up to us.
Scientist B: I have to admit that the potential consequences of creating something that can
match or go beyond human intelligence frighten me. Even now, scientists are teaching computers
