The forest of my hometown is beautiful no matter how the season is. I was driving slowly in this morning when I saw a deer live in the woods appear in the middle of the road. I came to the full stop, and we stared at each other. His eyes seemed wisely. He had been in this world for some month and I didn’t want end his life. Finally, I motioned with my hand for him to go on. Having seen anything to fear, he jumped across the road. I drive on smiling at the magic of this moment but thanked God that I had been going slowly not to hit this beautiful creature.

When you try too hard but you don’t succeed; when despite all your efforts you don’t get the results you need, give up and move on. 1. Confused? What is wrong with giving up?
Oh yes, we all have been trained and conditioned to work hard to achieve our dreams, and that is a good thing. The problem arises when all these inspirational quotes start confusing us. These messages tell people not to give up, 2. They tell one to “ try and try again” until they succeed, but that amount of effort should only be put toward what you really want in life and one should never quit at what they think to be their life’s purpose. 3. If you suck at piano and you know it’s because you don’t even like the instrument, give it up. If no matter how hard you study you can hardly score an above average grade, don’t worry, your talent lies somewhere else. Not everybody is an A-student.
4. Find out what you are good at, what makes you happy and then work on it. If you do, no one would have to tell you or inspire you not to give up because when you love something, you keep trying until you get it right and the enthusiasm flows from within. Don’t worry about what people will say or think, after all, it’s your life.5.
A.Let go of your life goal and live in the moment.
B.You have to live it and you have to be your own boss.
C.Try to recognize your talent, your ability and your skills.
D.and it proves that only efforts can make a big difference.
E.Make timely adjustment and run in the opposite directions.
F.The rest is all just there to confuse and depress you, so don’t let it.
G.but they don’t tell you that it should only apply to your true dreams.
Researchers from the MIT Media Lab, Boston Children’s Hospital, and Northeastern University used a robotic teddy bear, “Huggable”, across the Boston Children’s Hospital. More than 50 hospitalized children were divided into three groups that involved Huggable, a tablet-based virtual Huggable, or a traditional toy teddy bear. In general, the robotic Huggable improved various patient outcomes over the other two choices.
When first designed, Huggable was operated remotely by a specialist outside a child’ s room for the moment. Through software, a specialist could control the robot’s facial expressions and body actions. The specialists could also talk through a speaker — with their voice automatically changed to sound more childlike — and monitor the participants via camera.
During the treatments involving Huggable for kids aged 3 to 10 years, a specialist would sing nursery rhymes to younger children through the robotic bear and move the arms during the song. Older kids would play the I Spy game, where they had to guess an object in the room described by the specialist through Huggable. Through self-reports and questionnaires, the researchers recorded how much the patients and families liked Huggable. A greater percentage of children and their parents reported that the children enjoyed playing with Huggable more than with the virtual figure or traditional teddy bear.
The study proved the possibility of including Huggable in the treatments for children. Results also showed that children playing with Huggable experienced more positive emotions overall. They also got out of bed and moved around more, and emotionally connected with the robot, asking it personal questions and inviting it to come back later to meet their families. “Such improved emotional and physical outcomes are all positive factors that could contribute to hospitalized children’ s better and faster recovery,” the researchers write in their study.
The study also provided a basis for developing a fully autonomous Huggable robot, which is the researchers’ final goal. In the future, that automated robot could be used to improve children’ s further treatment and care, and monitor their well-being.
