in the next few years.Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday worldin a more humanized way,said Cynthia Breazeal,chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework,social robots will be much morelike companions than mere tools.For example,these robots will be able to distinguish whensomeone is happy or sad.This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.The Jibo robot,arranged to ship later this year,is designed to be a personalized assistant.You can talk to the robot,ask it questions,and make requests for it to perform different tasks.The robot doesnt just deliver general answers to questions;it responds based on what it learnsabout each individual in the household.It can do things such as reminding an elderly familymember to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home.They have potential applicationsin everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of thesespaces.Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market.The companys Oshbotrobot is built to assist customers in a store,which can help the customers find items and helpguide them to the products location in the store.It can also speak different languages and makerecommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans,the more it learns.But Oshbot,like othersocial robots,is not intended to replace workers,but to work alongside other employees./zWehave

library,andborrow at least one book for the summer.This was one more weapon for her to defeat mystrange problem inability to read.In the library,I found my way into the Childrens Room/I sat down on the floor and pulleda few books off the shelf at random.The cover of a book caught my eye.It presented a picture ofa beagle.I had recently had a beagle,the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child.He was my secret sharer,but one morning,he was gone,given away to someone who had thespace and the money to care for him.I never forgot my beagle.There on the book/s cover was a beagle which looked identical（相同的）to my dog.I ran myfingers over the picture of the dog on the cover.My eyes ran across the title,Amos,the Beaglewith a Plan.Unknowingly,I had read the title.Without opening the book,I borrowed it from thelibrary for the summer.Under the shade of a bush,I started to read about Amos.I read very,very slowly withdifficulty.Though pages were turned slowly,I got the main idea of the story about a dog who,likemine,had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home.That dogwas my dog,and I was the little boy in the book.At the end of the story,my mind continued thefinal scene of reunion,on and on,until my own lost dog and I were,in my mind,runningtogether.My mothers call returned me to the real world.I suddenly realized something:I had read abook,and I had loved reading that book.Everyone knew I could not read.But I had read it.Bookscould be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my“miraculous”（奇迹般的）experience that summer;but shesaw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year.Andyears later,she was proud that her son had read thousands of books,was awarded a PhD inliterature,and authored his own books,articles,poetry and fiction.The power of the words hasheld.46.The authors mother told him to borrow a book in order to.A.encourage him

could be the best title of the passage?A.The Charm of a Book B.Mums Strict OrderC.Reunion with My Beagle D.My Passion for ReadingDOnce when I was facing a decision that involved high risk,I went to a friend.He looked at mefor a moment,and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice Ive ever had:Be bold andbrave and mighty（强大的）forces will come to your aid.Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past,it was seldombecause I had tried and failed.It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from tryingat all.On the other hand,whenever I had plunged into deep water,forced by courage orcircumstance,I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again.Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you are sure you can eat.And there isnothing mysterious about the mighty forces.They are potential powers we possess:energy,skill,sound judgment,creative ideas even physical strength greater than most of us realize.Admittedly,those mighty forces are spiritual ones.But they are more important thanphysical ones.A college classmate of mine,Tim,was an excellent football player,even though heweighed much less than the average player./zln one game I suddenly found myself confronting ahuge player,who had nothing but me between him and our goal line/said Tim.was sofrightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet（子弹）and stopped him cold.”Boldness-a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme is not one that can beacquired overnight.But it can be taught to children and developed in adults.Confidence buildsup.Surely,there will be setbacks（挫折）and disappointments in life;boldness in itself is noguarantee of success.But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better
