I extremely love Bark magazine!I love the "smiling" pages and the tips on every topic.I am a dog lover and have saved all of my dogs from either death or from people who were going to put them down.Everyone should have a chance to live and Bark stresses that with its articles.This magazine is a MUST-HAVE for any dog lover!!

Don't waste your money on this magazine.60-70 percent of it are advertisements,and the articles offer little useful information.It might be suitable for children,but not adults who are serious about educating themselves about dogs.

You save: ﹩33.89 (69%) Review:By one critic
Dog World has many very interesting articles for people involved in dog showing,breeding,etc.However,over half of the magazine are ads,which is boring.Still,I recommend it for the good articles.

2.Robots really are replacing us flesh-and-bone types.They're making lunch,writing novels…the list goes on and on.What human can compete - especially considering that robots don't complain,ask for raises,or get drunk at the Christmas party?To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the inventing of the word robot by Karel Capek,we thought it would be fun to take a look at another side of robotkind.
You Call That Service?
A few years back,a Japanese hotel hired 243 robots to cover positions ranging from doorman to bellboy.Unfortunately,the check-in robots had trouble answering guests' questions and photo-copying passports,while bellboy robots kept running into walls and falling over steps.One in-room assistant robot responded every time the guest snored (打鼾),saying, "Sorry,I couldn't catch that.Could you repeat your request?"
You Look Like Others
Facial recognition software has one problem - it can't always recognize faces.The American Civil Liberties Union proved that point when it used the Amazon Rekognition software to match photos of criminals(罪犯) to 28 members of Congress(國會).But what about soccer ball recognition?During a match last year,a Scottish soccer team tried out AI-programmed video cameras designed to automatically follow the ball.Alas,the cameras constantly mistook the referee's bald head for the soccer ball.
Whatever You Do,Don't Anger Sophia
"Sophia" is a social humanoid robot developed by Hanson Robotics.She/It has an attractive face,with high cheekbones,and impressive eyebrows.And she can hold a conversation to compete against the chat of Apple's Siri.This is surely the robot of the future.When CEO David Hanson and Sophia appeared on a TV program,Hanson asked the robot the question humans have been asking themselves for years: "Sophia,do you want to destroy humans?" Immediately,Sophia - smiling a bit too widely - responded, "OK,I will destroy humans." Humans,you have been warned.
(1)"Another side" of robotkind in the first paragraph can be described as
A.competitive
B.violent
C.a(chǎn)dvanced
D.foolish
(2)Which of the following is TRUE according to the three stories?
A.The robots are functioning properly as human labor.
B.The robot Sophia consider Hanson's question as a request.
C.The facial recognition software makes accurate searches for the target.
D.The hotel in-room robot paid close attention to the guest's health condition.
(3)Which might be the best title for this passage?
A.Robots out of Control
B.Robots on the Rise
C.Robots Taking over
D.Robots under Debate組卷:0引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.Many people believe that paper started with the ancient Egyptians.However,this is not exactly true.Instead,5,000 years ago,Egyptians used a material called papyrus,which was made from the stems (莖) of river plants.They put these flat pieces together to create a larger flat sheet,on which Ancient Egyptians wrote like paper.
But the paper we know today did not exist until 3,000 years later.It was created in China.No one knows who first invented paper.But history does tell us about one man who improved the process.It was in the year 105.A man named Cai Lun began to use many materials to make paper.He took the outer covering of a tree,pieces of net and cloth,broke these materials down into very small pieces and mixed them with water.Then he pressed out the water,and all that was left was a thin sheet of paper.
Paper quickly spread to other areas of the world.In the Middle East,people made paper thicker and also made it easier to produce quickly.From the Middle East,paper travelled to Europe and then the Americas.For many years paper cost a lot of money and time to create.But in the 19th century,people began to create paper from wood.
Paper changed the way people lived.Long ago,when paper was difficult to make,therefore costly,people only used paper for special purposes.Government officials would write important laws on it.Explorers drew maps of the world on it.But common people did not use it.As paper became easier to make,it was used for more things.People wrapped it around gifts.Paper was also used as money.Today people use paper for even more things.
(1)According to the text,papyrus
A.was made from cloth
B.has a history of five thousand years
C.is difficult to produce
D.was introduced to Egypt from China
(2)Paragraph 2 is mainly about
A.how Cai Lun improved paper
B.the long history of paper in China
C.why Cai Lun wanted to make paper
D.the invention of the first piece of paper
(3)What's the spreading route of paper?
A.Asia → the Americas → Europe → the Middle East
B.Asia → Europe → the Middle East → the Americas
C.Asia → the Middle East → Europe → the Americas
D.Asia → the Middle East → the Americas → Europe
(4)When it was first invented,paper
A.could only be used by government officials
B.was expensive and difficult to make
C.was sent to others as a gift
D.was too thick to write on組卷:1引用:1難度:0.5
