    With the summer holiday just around the comer, it seems like everybody is busy planning their vacations. Here are some lips that can help you enjoy your holiday without emptying your pocket:

    Travel off-season

    Go to your desired destination while the demand is low and take advantage of huge discounts. During the peak season, the hotel and flight prices increase quickly, and you’ll likely spend more of your vacation time standing in line due to the rush of tourists. 1.

    Eat like a local

    Why eat at big chain restaurants when you can experience something new? 2. During your family trip, try new food where the locals eat. This will not just save money, but also provide you with a new and different experience. For smaller meals and snacks, avoid restaurants and try street food or other takeout.

    3.

    Websites can help you find discount hotel rooms. Look for places that do not charge extra for children if they use the existing bedding. Stay with the locals. If you and your family are going to 8tay for a longer period，renting a small apartment is a good choice.

    Choose local transportation

    4. Instead, take buses, railways or subways, which are always cheaper. If you are planning to stay for a while, you can consider renting a car. Hiring a car is much easier than carrying your bags everywhere if you are moving around a lot.

    Don’t hesitate to bargain

    Tourist-heavy places are known for overcharging for just about everything. Clothes, travel goodies, souvenirs, etc. are very expensive at these places. 5. Bargain hard to get the best price.

    A. Save on hotels.

    B. Surf the Internet while traveling.

    C. So it’s best to find out when the off-season starts.

    D. Therefore, avoid buying anything there.

    E. Planning your meals is another way to reduce your travel costs.

    F. For this reason, you shouldn’t feel ashamed to ask for bargains.

    G. As a tourist, avoid taking taxis whenever possible, since they are expensive.

    One advantage of the Internet is shopping conveniently online for clothes; one disadvantage of the Internet is also shopping conveniently online for clothes.

    “Nothing fits,” said Lam Yuk Wong, a senior in electrical and computer engineering at Rice University. “Everyone says this. They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”

    Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtual (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Ko ng and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got the right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.

    Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.

    Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”

    1.Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadvantage?

    A. Students may easily get addicted to it.

    B. Clothes bought online may not fit.

    C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.

    D. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.

    2.Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.

    A. their shopping experiences B. a program at their university

    C. some shop-owners’ complaints D. the Xbox 360 video game player

    3.Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?

    A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting images

    B. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanning

    C. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes

    D. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanning

    4.What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?

    A. It is perfectly developed. B. It will have its market share.

    C. It is limited to women shoppers. D. It is like a kind of video game player.

    Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.

    While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions（伙伴） than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.

    The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.

    Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.

    Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.

    The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,” said Breazeal.

    1.How are social robots different from household robots?

    A. They can control their emotions.

    B. They are more like humans.

    C. They do the normal housework.

    D. They respond to users more slowly.

    2.What can Oshbot work as?

    A. A language teacher.

    B. A tour guide.

    C. A shop assistant.

    D. A private nurse.

    3.We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will ______.

    A. train employees B. be our workmates

    C. improve technologies D. take the place of workers

    4.What does the passage mainly present?

    A. A new design idea of household robots.

    B. Marketing strategies for social robots.

    C. Information on household robots.

    D. An introduction to social robots.

    Humans have daydreamed for thousands of years, and yet, these days, spare moments are filled with using our smartphones and other devices—going through social media, listening to podcasts, responding to emails—leaving us little time to let our minds wander.

    1. When you’re in a daydreaming state of mind, you can imagine or pretend your own version of events.

    “My most creative moments come when my brain is allowed to rest” says Megan King, a designer. But she is addicted to her smart phone. 2. According to Nielsen, Americans spend 10.5 hours a day consuming media. And UK residents are close behind at almost 10 hours a day, according to eMarketer.

    3. This may seem a small change, but its effect, on the way our minds work and on our collective creativity could be serious. 4.

    Over years of studies, researchers have found that our brain has two separate attention systems — an external one and an internal one. The internal attention system, which is activated(激活）during daydreaming, is called the default network(默认网络).

    The default network is particularly active when we are thinking about ourselves, thinking about the past, thinking about the future. 5.

    If both systems can’t be active at the same time and we’re spending 10 hours a day in one attention system, it begs the question: what is that doing to our brains — and our ability to come up with creative ideas?

    A. Daydreaming is the opposite of our dreams.

    B. This extended screen time has made some of us uncomfortable sitting alone with our own thoughts.

    C. Daydreaming is how we access our big-picture state of mind.

    D. In fact, it could be preventing your ability to come up with fresh, creative ideas.

    E. We can’t really have both attention systems active at the same time.

    F. People spend too much time on screen suffer from headaches.

    G. She's not alone.
