From sleep machines to Al-controlled hou cleaning robots, a wide variety of advanced technologies and products are being exhibited at the 4th China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai. Here are some products you don’t want to miss.
Electric bicycle Brina 2
For many people,a daily commute (通勤) is often a source of headache. Emove Inc, an exhibitor from Argentina, has prented electric bicycle Brina 2 as a solution. Running on long-ange batteries, the e-bike has a maximum speed of 25 miles per hour. Almost all the components are designed within the carbon fiber frame. Its scientific design makes the ride more stable and comfortable than other conventional e-bikes.
AI robot — a right-hand assistant for life and productioncontessa
AIrobot from AgileRobotsAG, a leading intelligent robotics company from Germany, helps make life and work easier. With the ability to synthesize (综合) and adjust motion tracks in real-time, the robot is a great assistant. For instance, it can aid humans in tasks like loading and unloading, polishing and quality inspection.

One dilemma that the super famous face is balancing the needs of privacy and recognition.
For some stars privacy is an overvalued thing. In 1919, Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford went on their European honeymoon. The two international idols had divorced their previous spous （配偶）and were concerned about how they would be greeted. They needn’t have worried. In London their car was surrounded by admiring women who pulled Mary out of the car to shake her hand, still grateful after two years for her efforts lling war bonds. I n Paris they couldn’t get any sleep with crowds gathering below their hotel room to sing and play for them. In Amsterdam they attended a party and were mobbed （包围）by other guests who wanted to get clo to them. The athletic Fairbanks placed his wife on his shoulder and escaped through the window. Finally, they found priva
cy in Hamburg, where their movies were not shown becau of World War I. For an hour the famous newly-married couple walked the streets unnoticed until the bored Mary turned to her husband and said, “Doug, I’m sick of this. Let’s go back to one of tho countries where they mob us.”
Joan Crawford had similar feelings. Once in the 1930s she was staying in New York getting over her breakup with Clark Gable. Tired of staying around her hotel feeling so down she told her entourage （随从） they should go out and get some fresh air. The entourage, who had trouble keeping up with the star’s quick pace, were shocked when she walked away from their planned road. "Oh my God. She’s going into Grand Centra l Station!" Someone shouted, “Look, it’s Joan Crawford! And she was mobbed. It took them thirty minutes to escape the crowd and get back to their hotel suite. Her hair disheveled （凌乱），her dress tom and her face scratched, Crawford leaned against the door out of breath. "Oh.,. oh my. That was wonderful. Let’s do it again!”

On February 6, 2020, American astronaut Christina Koch arrived back on Earth after 328 days in space. Her time in space is just one of the records t by herlf. That’s the longest spaceflight ever made by a woman, and just one of the many things Ms. Koch achieved in space.
Ms. Koch took off from Earth for the International Space Station (ISS) on March 12, 2019. While in space, she made 5, 248 trips around the Earth, travelling 2, 237 million kilometers, which is roughly the same as 291 trips to the Moon and back. During her 11 months on the ISS, Ms. Koch took part in six spacewalks, spending over 42 hours in all outside the station. In October of 2019, Ms. Koch led the first ever all-female spacewalk with Jessica Meir.
But for most astronauts, space travel isn’t about tting records. It’s about doing science. Ms. Koch took part in a wide variety of special experiments, including studying how crystals (晶体) grow in space, how atoms (原子) behave in extreme cold and learning more about growing plants in low gravity. Growing plants in space could be an important way to provide food on future trips. She also tested a new way of parating liquids from gas. This experiment could lead to simple methods of
cleaning water and air in space, which could be very important for future space travel.
Ms. Koch isn’t just a scientist and an astronaut. She is also being studied. She’s part of a NASA program studying how astronauts are affected by being in space for long periods of time. Her trip was only 12 days shorter than the American record t by Scott Kelly in 2016. As they did with Mr. Kelly, NASA scientists are looking carefully at ways Ms. Koch’s body has been a ffected by her time in space. That rearch is important for the longer space trips NASA hopes to make in the future, such as for a ba on the moon or a trip to Mars.事实上
8. Which of the following is an achievement Ms. Koch has made?
A．Making the longest spaceflight by herlf.
B．Leading the first women-only spacewalk.
C．Cleaning water and air successfully in space.
D．Staying outside the ISS continuously for 42 hours.
9. What does the author want to tell us with so many detailed figures in Paragraph 2? A．Koch made historic breakthroughs in space.
B．Koch went through a life-threatening space trip.
C．Koch completed admirable tasks in the space travel.
D．Koch is the most experienced astronaut in NASA.
10. Which statement agrees with the text?
A．Astronauts are competing to t new records.
B．Koch’s team produced their own food in space.
C．NASA has founded a scientific ba on the moon.北岛 回答
D．Koch’s rearch is significant for space exploration.
11. What can be the best title for the text?

A．Record-Setting Astronaut Koch Returns to Earth
B．US Astronauts Carried out Experiments in Space
C．Spacewalks Have Successfully Been Done on the ISS
D．NASA is Studying Astronauts for Longer Space Tripsnuttertools
In habitats across the planet, animals periodically drop everything to walk, fly or swim to a new place. Wildlife such as whales and gee learn migration paths by following their parents. Others, including small songbirds, gain the distance and direction of their migration within their genetic code. And some animals u a combination of genetics and culture to guide their migration.
Another group of migrators does not quite fit either model, and rearchers have only recently started to figure out how they find their way. Take the Cory’s shearwater, an oceangoing a bird that migrates over the Atlantic every year. The young do not migrate with their parents, so culture cannot explain their journeys. And the exact paths vary wildly from individual to individual, making genetics equally unlikely.
Cory’s shearwaters are long-lived, rarely producing young successfully before age nine. This leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns. Rearchers call this the “exploration-refinement”, and until now it has been hypothetical (假设的) becau of difficulties in tracking migratory animals’ movements.
But a team of rearchers has done that by attaching small geolocators to more than 150 of the birds aged four to nine. They found that younger birds traveled longer distances, for longer periods, a nd had more diver paths than older birds. “We finally have evidence of the ‘exploration-refinement’ for migratory birds,” says Letizia Campioni, who led the study. Younger Cory’s shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as
the adults— but they do not, suggesting that the young do more exploring, which gradually fades as they mature and ttle into a preferred cour.
Although it may em less efficient than other strategies, “exploration refinement could be beneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictable man-made changes,” says Barbara Frei. “It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recently successful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe.”
