短文改错

One evening after work, I found a beautiful little fox with a injured leg. He was like a Disney fox. Then I feed her some fish. A couple of weeks later, the fox was back, much better and had often come ever since. She was comfortable enough to come really close me. She allowed me to take photo of her, the best of them I posted on social media. Soon after, she took her cubs together to visit to me, which was really unexpected. It’s amazing to have this connection with something so wildly in this busy city, but happily the loving fox still keeps turning up.

My Perfect Imperfect Life

    Sleep has become a big deal in working life. Thanks to high-profile figures including Arianna Huffington, sleeping is no longer seen as a sign of weakness among competitive colleagues.

1.A US study has found that in areas where the sun sets earlier, people sleep longer — and this translates into higher earnings. In the long term, just one extra hour of sleep a week increases wages by 4.9%. 2.But don’t move house — the higher wages correspond almost exactly with higher house prices. Actually, if you want to sleep more, there are better ways to do it than moving house — just buy better curtains.

3.Each extra hour of sleep should be taken away from working time. So how can sleeping earn you money? The answer is productivity. The biggest effects come through employees who work on commission. If you go to work well rested, you are livelier and happier, and can sell more to increase your earnings.

Even small amounts of sleep deprivation (缺乏) can have large effects. Another study found that sleeping six hours a night for two weeks produced the same results in cognitive tests as being totally sleep-deprived for up to two days straight. 4.If you struggle to get eight hours of sleep a night, a siesta（午休）can have a “reset” effect, and your productivity improves afterward.

Lack of sleep has already been shown to be worse for productivity than being overweight or underweight. So, why are you still reading this? 5.

A.You should go back to bed.

B.But a mid-afternoon nap can help.

C.Therefore, you should get enough sleep.

D.This goes against conventional economics.

E.Research shows that more sleep can lead to us earning more money.

F.So if you live in an area that gets darker earlier, you should be richer.

G.You are supposed to get down to business as quickly as possible.

    Want to get your package delivered via robots? Now there’s an app for that. If you live in Washington D. C. , or Redwood, you may have glimpsed a small, boxy robot rolling along a local sidewalk, minding its own business, but attracting the attention of many curious onlookers.

The autonomous machines were part of a pilot program last year by Starship Technologies focusing on delivering meals from local restaurants in dozens of cities around the world. This week, the company unveiled plans to broaden its delivery service beyond food to include package, a move that led it to declare itself “the world’s first robot package delivery service”. The next time you order food, this cute robot might roll up to deliver it. The package delivery service is not available to everyone yet.

The wheeled robots have a top speed of 4mph and can detect obstacles from 30 feet away. “The robot can operate through anything,” Nick Handrick, head of operations for Starship’s D.C. office, said. “ If you had something in the way — a stick — it’s able to climb sticks.”

To sign up for the service, which costs a little more than $ 10 per month, customers need to download the company’s app. Customers then create a “Starship Delivery Address”, a unique address inside a Starship facility, where they can have package sent from places such as Amazon.com. Once a package is delivered to the Starship address, customers receive a text notification that allows them to schedule a home delivery via robot. The robots are opened by customers via a mobile phone code.

Barriers exist for robotic ground delivery, with many states requiring that humans be in control of delivery robots. Those regulations haven’t stopped Starship Technologies from accumulating experience on streets around the globe ahead of the company’s latest launch. The company says its robots have covered more than 125,000 miles in more than 100 cities in 20 countries.

1.What can we know about the robotic delivery?

A.It is part of a trial project by Starship Technologies.

B.You can use the service free of charge via smart phones.

C.The robots are opened by customers with a text notification.

D.The robotic delivery is available to everyone at present.

2.What does the underlined word “unveiled” in paragraph 2 probably mean?

A.Revised B.Released

C.Restored D.Reset

3.What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A.The good news of the service.

B.The disadvantages of the robotic delivery.

C.How the robotic delivery works.

D.Robotic delivery develops despite challenges.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.A New Robot Was Invented B.Wheelless Robots Are on the Way

C.How Robots Deliver Packages D.Packages Will Be Delivered by Robots
