Now, it seems that artficial intelligence （人工智能）is becoming more and more popular in our life, and it has greatly influenced the ways we live, work and play. Can you imagine that you can play table tennis with a robot one day?
Recently, a scientist has invented a special robot that can be a table tennis coach. That means people can practice table tennis not only with humans but also with a robot.
Named Forpheus, the smart table tennis robot is quite special. It can study the movements of human players and the speeds of the ball. In this way, it can exactly judge (判断) the player' skill levels (水平). Then it uses the information to change the ways to play. If the player are just beginners, Forpheus will play in a slow and easy way, but if the players are better ones, the robot will play in a faster and more difficult way. What's more, while playing, it encourages players to try their beat with words like "Good job!", "Come on!" and so on. At the same time, it gives some good advice to improve their skills. So it is both a good partner and a clever coach.
Science and technology is developing quickly these days and it's hard to imagine what will happen in the future. "In the next 20 years, it will be possible that one robot teaches another to play table tennis or even invents another one!" Takuoya, the inventor of the robot, said.

3.The robot can judge the skill levels of human players exactly.
4.One robot will probably teach another to play table tennis in the future.

Money can make you happy only if you spend it in a clever way .
To start with ,1.(buy) a new car makes you happy.However,you’ll “lose”
this happy feeling when the car2.(get)old.But if you are made to spend a week traveling,it’s more possible that you’ll have the great experiences and the good feeling for a long time .A new study has3.(find)that spending money on experiences rather than material things makes people happier.
For material things ,it’s possible that you don’t leave 4.any little thing .If you buy a nice pen ,and someone else buys one with less money ,it’s possible that you may be unhappy that you spend so much money .It lets you down a lot.Oppositely, when it comes to experiences like5.(go)on a trip ,you won’t think like that .If the trip can be nice ,you’ll happily pay for it even though 6.(it) price may be very high. And the more ofen you go on trips,the7.(happy)you’ll be.
Material things can be compared more easily.If you buy an Ipad and then see a more suitable one. you may regret buying the first one.And 8. will drive you mad as well ,9.,if you just have a dinner at a good restaurant and then learn about a better one ,you’ll not regret the first meal.
It’s normal that material things can cause jealousy(嫉妒).For example ,you buy a new toy and find that your friend has a better one ,it may make you feel 10.(comfortable).Instead, if you just travel to a beautiful place ,no matter where your friends have gone,it won’t make the memory of your trip less pleasant.
