One day I was walking to the mailbox with my dad,when I saw something drop from a tree.I couldn't      what it was,so I kept my eyes on the spot as we came near .It was a baby bird,which had fallen from its nest.It had long,awkward wings and feet,and      that fought to stay open .It was      , so I sat next to it watching while my dad got the mail.I     its nest and mother ,     what would happen to it.

    My dad and we had to      it;there was nothing we could do.He said if the bird mother smelled any traces(踪迹) of      ,she wouldn't go near the      again.

    As we began to walk away,a woman      .”Did it fall out of a nest ?”she asked.

    “Yeah.”I answered.

    “It      a lot. Not much we can do,”she said .”Try not to think about it when you go to sleep tonight.”

    I walked      the mailbox the next day.The baby bird lay      in the grass.

1.Breaking Dishes on Neighbor’s Door

A strange Danish New Year tradition,depending on how you look at it, is throwing dishes at neighbor’s door.2.The family with the tallest tower of broken plates,glasses,cups and other crockery is considered to be the luckiest person because it symbolizes their large amount of loyal friends.

2.Talking to Spirits

Talking to spirits is a part of Mexican belief.Mexicans strongly believe that they can communicate with the souls of their dead loved ones.3.And this is not done at home on an individual basis but is a legal Mexican practice.Taos Inn,in New Mexico for example,offers 15 minutes session of spiritualism and meditation for $15.6.Not a bad price for some helpful guidance!

3.Wearing Polka Dots

Imagine streets full of people wearing polka dots and dining room tables full of round shaped food and fruits on one single day of the year.4.Philippines believe that this will bring them prosperity by associating the round dots to coins and wealth.

Robots make me nervous-especially the ones which seem to think for themselves.I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates,the founder of Microsoft,felt the same way.Gates said in an interview with the website Reddit:“I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence.First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super  intelligent.That should be positive if we manage well.A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern.”

    Well,maybe I don’t have to worry about my laptop and kitchen appliances yet.After I  use them I can always pull the plug.But in the future,machines might find a way to prevent  us from switching them off.There’s a scary thought!

    Professor Stephen Hawking warned a few months ago about the possibility that artificial intelligence could evolve and end up beyond human contro1.He suggested that machines could“spell the end of the human race”.

    Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil or rebellious.What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient.That’s what philosopher Nick Bostrom from the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford University believes.He says that machines are indifferent to humans and in pursuit of their own goals,the destruction of people might be just collateral(附带的)damage.A machine would not take pity on you.

I’m glad my machines at home are“dumb”.All my vacuum cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room.Let’s hope they don’t create an appliance which wants to take over the world!

1.We can conclude from Gates’statements that ___________.

A.he is embarrassed that he is afraid of robots

B.he doesn’t think machines are intelligent

C.machines should be fully employed

D.machines’super intelligence should be a concern

2.The underlined word“spell”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _____________.

A.record    B.cause    C.explain  D.develop

3.Why are computers dangerous according to Nick Bostrom?

A.They are too evil and rebellious.

B.They are indifferent to humans.

C.They show pity on humans.

D.They are too clever and efficient.

4.What can be inferred about the author?

A.He doesn’t agree with Bill Gates.

B.He is not content with the present kitchen appliances.

C.He is scared about the super intelligence of machines.

D.He expects that machines will take place of humans.

A lot of small business owners put themselves in an embarrassed position in their own companies.Consider this scene:the company owner who has thirty individuals working for him in the business does all the work.

Stop the actual wrong belief that you’re the only one who can do the JOB!

You are an individual.A robot or machine must rest, or be changed.The best way to replace yourself is not through someone else,but with a System! A system or program doesn’t always make reference to something high-tech.It’s more about the actual administration process flow that gets issues running smoothly.

Systemizing your business is vitally important for the success of the company.About 80%of what’s completed in your business can be systemized.Take a moment to determine all of the routine things that are done in your company.Now record the best way to achieve these duties.

However,creating systems isn’t enough.You have to ensure that the methods are simple to follow,and easy to complete.If you do not allow it to be easy,it won’t be done,or at best it won’t be consistent.

With systems and processes in position.it’s simply using a few people to operate individual systems.A great number of companies that possess established systems have made great achievements through the years.Burger King is a good actual life example.

To construct a great business,replace yourself with a good program right now!

Around four years ago, I received a call from the principal of our school as to the “Parents View” talk the next morning. He asked me to speak to the group. After the call, my whole body became feverish and panicky. The time from his call to the next morning seemed like years. The whole night, I could not sleep with many ominous apprehensions in mind. One of them was to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally, I gathered some courage. I thought, “If I miss this opportunity, surely the school will never invite me again to any of their programs.”

I reached the school in time. Before my turn came, my whole body was trembling. When my turn came and I started speaking, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn’t even able to read the written speech properly. I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading. That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness, Public Speaking.

After my speech, I met with the principal and explained what happened to me. He told me that this happens to everyone. Even great speaker, faced the same things when they started. He suggested that I come again next time.

Around one month later, I was invited to refer to a topic on Motivation. This time I was feeling comfortable. My speech was not only appreciated by the principal as well as the teachers, because I was able to get my idea across to them. They encouraged and praised my efforts.

After delivering is successfully, I became more confident .l said to myself, “If I can speak in front of such a learned audience, like the principal who educates others, I can now speak in front of others too.”

I started delivering lectures in my plant, on various topics like Self Motivation, Personality Development, Personal Excellence, Spoken English and Presentation Skills. This has become a passion for me. I learned that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.
