Last month, the artist Christo opened his new art sculpture. It is made up of 7,506 colorful barrels （丰甬）floating on a lake in Hyde Park in London. Christo calls it The London Mastaba. It is his first major outdoor art sculpture in Great Britain. The artwork is in the shape of a mastaba. It looks somewhat like a pyramid with a fat top. The London Mastaba is about 65 feet high, 98 feet wide and 130 feet long, and it weighs about 1.3 million pounds. The metal barrels can be seen from hundreds of feet away,

Everyone who looks at it will see something different. Many will think the barrels are barrels of oil in the heart of one of London's oldest parks. They might wonder if Christo was making an announcement against pollution. Others will see a prism or giant pixels or simply a shape. However, everyone must decide for themselves, the 83-year-old artist said. Christo said he had nothing special in mind when he created The London Mastaba. 'There are no messages,' Christo said. 'There is something in it to discover yourself. I cannot direct you?5

“A Stairway To The Sky”

'It's created a giant invitation, like a stairway to the sky,' Christo said. The artist was standing on the banks of the Serpentine Lake in Hyde Park where his artwork floats. Swans are swimming nearby. Some barrels are red with a white candy stripe on the sides. Others are colored blue, purple and red. Their colors will look different as the light changes, Christo said. Their reflection （侄。影）in the lake will be 1 汰e an abstract painting. Abstraction is an artistic style that does not always show something recognizable or realistic.

“Not Really Sure How I Feel About If7

Many people walking in the park were surprised to see the artwork. 'It's very modern, but this place is nature and historical. I don't like it here/' said Yasmin KocOzcengel, who is a tourist from Turkey. Another person who took a look at the artwork was Anna Andronova. She called The London Mastaba very brave. If it weren't as brave, it wouldn't be as amazing, she said. Sheila Seffenson is an American living in London. 'Tm just not really sure how I feel about it,' Steffenson said. 'Maybe it's a message about pollution. Who knows?”

Mobile phones are one of the most useful inventions of the last 50 years, but not everything that is said about them is good. Mobiles are often believed to be the cause of a number of things from poor eyesight and headaches to house fires. There's even one theory that mobile phones should be responsible for the disappearance of bees!

The theory is that the radiation （辐射）given off by mobile phones does great harm to bees' navigation systems （导航系统）.Bees have built-in system a bit like GPS and this helps them find their way back to their hives. But recently, thousands of bees have failed to find their way home. It is believed they are dying far from their hives.

The problem was first noticed by beekeepers in America and is a lot more serious than it at first seems. The important thing about bees is that most of the crops in many countries of the world are pollinated by them. Without bees, the crops can't continue to grow. Many beekeepers in Europe have reported losing between 50 and 70 percent of their bees. Jim Piper, London beekeeper, said to the reporter, 'My business is becoming worse. Twenty-nine of my forty hives are now empty.'

Nobody knows for sure whether the theory is true or not, but it's a fact that bees are disappearing in very large numbers. And we can't manage without them. Einstein said that if all our bees disappeared, man would only live for four more years! If the mobile phone theory is correct, we need to do something about it right now—before it's too late.

11. The underlined word 'pollinate' probably means '

'in Chinese.

the problem first.

（2020-重庆） When Goldie Nejat began developing robots in 2005, she spent much of her time knocking on doors to let people know how her robots worked but few showed interest, 'But now, it's difterent,' Says Nejat, 'People calling from around the world ask when my robots are going to be ready.' Nejaf's robots are designed to fill an increasing need; care-giving for the old. The population of the people over age 80 will be 426 million in 2050, three times larger than that now.

Such robots could be especially useful for patients with Alzheimer's disease （老年痴呆症 ）.They can help with everyday activities from preparing food to reminding（提酉星）the patients of taking their medicine. They can also play games with patients to keep them active.

Some have worried that care-giving robots might reduce （减少 ）human interaction （互动）and cause more humans to lose their jobs. 'But the aim is to support human care, not to take the place of it' says Brian Scassellati. He has tested robots with different patients, and found that daily interaction with robots can help children with autism spectrum disorder（自 闭障碍症）improve social skills.

As a field grows, scientists aim to understand human-robot relationships better. Do robots offer advantages because they don't have feelings and don't give opinions? Will patients lose interest?

'One thing is clear/' Scassellati says, 'Robots can provide care for the customers and the need for that will increase in the future.'
