GLASGOW—the Chinese super star Lin Dan lost a thrilling men's singles final in straight games at the World Badminton Championships here on Sunday.

The 33-year-old Lin,nicknamed Super Dan by his fans,was 9-13 behind in the first game as the 23-year-old Axelsen,who stands 1.95 meters,took command with powerful attacks.

Lin,who won his fifth and last world title in 2013,managed to reach 13-13 with well-angled shots.They exchanged the lead several times before Lin took advantage at 20-19.Axelsen,the bronze medalist at last year's Rio Olympics,saved the game point and scored three points in a row for a 22-20 victory.The second game became a one-sided affair when Axelsen led all the way to win 21-16.Lin's expectation of winning a sixth world title was dashed by Denmark's Victor Axelsen.

Axelsen became the third Dane to take world men's singles title following Peter Rasmussen in 1997 and Flemming Delfs in 1977.“It was a dream for me to win a world title,”Axelsen said.“I was shaking like a little child inside...Lin Dan is an idol for me.”

Lin suffered his fourth defeat to Axelsen in their seven meetings,but he was satisfied with the result.“I am 34 at the end of this year and 35 next year.I think any player will find it very hard to play a world championships final at this age.I am satisfied with the result.”He added,“We both played well today.I should have killed off the first game when I led 20-19.But I made a mistake at the crucial time.If I won the first game,all the pressure would be at Victor's side.Unfortunately,I have to take all the pressure."

Lin also dismissed any speculations about his retirement.“I will play in the Chinese National Games which kicks off tomorrow and then the Japan Open.I have been making very good preparations for this competition and I have showed that I am still strong enough physically.”

When you think of the future,you imagine having some sort of robot friend in your life.Musio,a new robot unveiled recently,is something like that.

Musio is an artificial intelligence software that runs on Google's Android mobile OS,and is packaged in the form of a round little robot with pointy ears.It doesn't move around,but it has a digital screen for its eyes and heart that are used to express the robot's emotions.It also comes with a remote pointer device,called Sophy,which is used to detect objects that trigger different interactions with Musio.

The robot was created by AKA,a company specializing in machine learning and natural language processing.It's designed to interact with its users with a voice interface,much like you'd use Siri.But Musio's creators,Wilmington, Delaware-based AKA Study,stress that this is a much different experience than using Siri—Musio can have interactive conversations and remember information about its users,sort of like a little person.Musio can do all sorts of things like controlling home automation and it has a number of integrated sensors.The robot is also programmable and it is able to speak naturally.It is designed to share its emotions via faces on its LCD screen.There are three versions of Musio that vary on hardware.The Simple version has a 1.2GHz dual core processor,1800 mAh battery, 16GB storage and isn't internet connected.It can only recall the last five conversations it has.

Beyond running on the open source Android platform,Musio is also Arduino compatible.The Arduino platform is an open source electronics platform built to be easy to program.Its purpose is to take different inputs through a suite of sensors and then relay commands to lights,motors,or actuators as a result.Musio is also compatible with the Zigbee wireless standard used by a range of smart home devices,so it's possible that developers could intertwine the robot with other appliances and turn it into a sort of voice-activated smart home hub with a personality.

And there are several educational accessories that come with Musio,such as flash cards and a fold-out accordion board book.Using Sophy,the pointer,Musio can interact with these objects thanks to a Bluetooth low-energy connection and a special code implanted in the printed materials.

1.What is Musio?

A. A digital e-book reader.    B. A language learning software.

C. An artificial intelligence robot.    D. A voice-controlled website.

2.How is Musio different from Siri?

A. It can hear and understand what its user speaks.

B. It connects a lot of programs.

C. It will give a variety of commands.

D. It can exchange verbal information with its users interactively.

3.Why could developers intertwine Musio with other appliances?

A. Because it could run on the open source Android platform.

B. Because it has a strong compatibility.

C. Because it takes different inputs through a suite of sensors.

D. Because it relays commands to lights,motors,or actuators.

4.What does the underlined word “accessories” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. Attachments.    B. Sensors.

C. Pointers.    D. Platforms.

Like to watch TV or play with your phone while you eat your dinner?Watch out—it could make you pile on the pounds.Not paying attention to our food makes us tend to more snacking later.

Over a series of experiments were carried out by researchers.For the first experiment,39 normal-weight young women were randomly assigned to one of three experimental conditions: a high-distraction group,a low-distraction group,and a no-distraction group.Each person was given the same 400-calorie lunch consisting of several food items presented in a fixed order,and instructed to eat all of the items.

In the high-distraction group,the women were told to play a computer game while eating,and that they would win money if they did well.In the low-distraction group they were just told to play the game while eating; and in the third group they were just told to eat their lunch.Later in the afternoon,each participant had access to a variety of biscuits on a plate,and the amount each person ate was assessed by weighing the plate before and afterwards.

There was a significant difference between the groups.Those in the high-distraction condition ate 69 per cent more snacks than the no-distraction group,and those in the low-distraction group eating 28 per cent more (than those in the no-distraction group) .

A second experiment,involving a further 63 people,was similar,but involved watching TV (in the distraction condition) and eating soup and bread.This found that those who watched TV while eating their lunch ate 19 per cent more biscuits later on than those who had eaten their meal without any distractions.

A third experiment was also carried out,in which 45 normal-weight people were allocated to three groups.The first listened to an audio clip instructing them to imagine they were watching themselves eat—making them extremely focused on their own food intake.The second listened to a clip instructing them to imagine they were watching a celebrity—specifically David Beckham—eat (making them still focused on the food,but to a lesser degree);the third,which was the control group,just ate their lunch in silence.When all participants were given access to biscuits later,those in the self-imagining group-i.e. those who had really paid attention to what they were eating—ate far fewer than the other groups.

1.Why does eating dinner with a TV or a smartphone make us fat?

A. Because we're more likely to snack later on.

B. Because we're paying more attention to our eating.

C. Because food is becoming more delicious while we're playing.

D. Because we need more calories while playing.

2.What is TRUE about the three experiments?

A. The low-distraction group ate the most snacks in the first experiment.

B. Non-distracted members ate more biscuits later in the second experiment.

C. Participants focusing on eating ate far fewer in the third experiment.

D. Each person was told to watch TV or play a game.

3.What would be the best title for the text?

A. Eating attentively doesn't help control appetite.

B. Attentive eating increases later snack intake.

C. Focusing on food increases later snack intake.

D. Distraction leads to more snacking later.

4.Where is the text most probably from?

A. A textbook.    B. A scientific paper.

C. A nutrition guidelines.    D. A fashion magazine.
