Do you like to

Scientists
prove that expensive status symbols make you look

Items such as

increase our social
standing and often

latest research, however,
it has the
opposite effect and people would prefer to be
friends with someone who places less
value on material objects.
“Often we think that status symbols
will make us look more socially attractive to
others,
“says Stephen Garcia, the
study's lead author from the University of
Michigan. He adds,
“However, our
research
suggests that these status
signals actually make us look less socially
attractive.

conducted six studies which assessed how people

About one million adults in
the USA need someone to help them eat. Researchers
at the
University of Washington are
working on a robotic system that can help make it
easier. After
identifying different
food on a plate, the robot can decide how to use a
fork to pick up and

deliver the desired bite to
a person s mouth.
“Being dependent on a
caregiver to feed every bite every day takes away
a person's sense
of independence,
control over their lives the idea was
to develop a feeding system that would be attached
to
wheelchairs and feed people whatever
they wanted to eat.
“When we started
the project, we realized there are so many ways
that people can eat a
piece of food
depending on its size, shape or consistency(
坚实度
),
, “So we
set up an experiment to see how humans
eat common foods.”
The
researchers arranged plates with about a dozen
different kinds of food, ranging in
consistency from hard carrots to soft
bananas, Then the team gave volunteers a fork and
asked
them to pick up different pieces
of food and feed them to a model. The fork
contained a sensor
to measure how much
force people used when they picked up food.
To design a feeding strategy that
changes based on the food item, the researchers
combined two different algorithms
(
算法
).First they used an
object-detection algorithm called
Retina Net, which scans the plate,
identifies the types of food on it and places a
frame around
each item. Then they
developed SPNet, an algorithm that examines the
type of food in a
specific frame and
tells the robot the best way to pick up the food.
The team is currently working with the
Taskar Center for Accessible Technology to get
advice from caregivers and patients on
how to improve the system to meet people's need.
12
．
Why do the
researchers work on the robotic system?
A
．
To help old
people live a normal life.
B
．
To help people
improve their health.
C
．
To release
people from heavy housework.
D
．
To make some
people more independent.
13
．
How does the
robotic system work?
A
．
By picking up
some soft food.
C
．
By working with
some nurses.
B
．
By
picking out food on the wheelchair.
D
．
By observing
and delivering food.
14
．
What can be
inferred about the robotic system?
A
．
It needs
further research.
C
．
It is suitable
for any disabled person.

more about teaching swimming than just knowing how

possibility, but did you know you can
get scholarships for less-known sports? Have a try
on
golf, sailboat and marathon! A
senior year spent learning and perfecting a new
sport can lead to
a full ride in
college.

nonprofits have good scholarships for their

organization.38

It can be best to work for an
organization that you are familiar with or have a
childhood history with.

Try building a
personal connection with someone at a scholarship
society. Building a
relationship
through visits, phone calls, and gifts can make
you stand out of the crowd.
Remember,
these people chose the winners from hundreds of
applications a day and a personal
touch
can really make a difference!
Apply
early. It can never be too early to apply for a
scholarship. Applying early is another
way to stand out of the crowd. You can
definitely score a better scholarship earlier with

less
competition.40
