ANNIVERSARY ISSUE
Reader's Digest February 2022Letter 1
Your article (November) mentioned a doctor's visit for "heat and compression" treatment.I bought an inexpensive microwavable moist-heat eye compress online and use it for several minutes at bedtime to help open the oil glands.Plus,the warmth and ritual help me relax and fall asleep.No more messy washcloth compresses for me!
—Julie Evans
Minneapolis,MinnesotaLetter 2
The Quality Inn in Kodak,Tennessee,turning into a shelter during a historic winter storm showed so much kindness that I read the story twice (November).For Sean Patel to open his hotel to locals in need during the storm and power outage,at Christmastime and for just ﹩25 (the lowest price the corporate regulations would allow),was priceless.The town is a better place because of Patel and his staff.
—Annette Wolfe
Shelton,ConnecticutLetter 3
You suggested using toothpicks to raise a pot lid and prevent the pot from boiling over (October).I prevent boilovers by just laying a wooden spoon over the open pot.The spoon will pop most of the bubbles on contact—hasn't failed me yet!
—Pam Snellgrove
LaGrange,GeorgiaLetter 4
The story about a snorkeler,Carter Viss,who lost his arm after getting hit by a speedboat (October)—and then forgiving the driver—was among the most compelling I've ever read.Here was a story of health and loss,sea and shore,healing and the hope to endure out of the darkness into the light.Simply marvelous!

2."BANG!" the door caused a reverberation (回聲).It was just standing there,with my father standing on one side,and me on the other side.
We were both in great anger. "Never set foot in this house again!" stormed my father.With tears welling up in my eyes,I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.
The street lights were shining,causing rather sad feelings.I wandered aimlessly.
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me.I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space:happy and carefree.
But now ...I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because my dad is getting old.We differ in our ways of thinking.He always puts his opinions and codes of behavior on me.Whenever he does something wrong,he never admits it.We are just like two people coming from two different worlds.It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
I wandered the streets,without a destination in mind.My heart was frozen on this hot summer night.As I walked on,there were fewer and fewer people in the streets,until I had only the street lights to keep me company.When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived,I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself: "Is my father waiting for me,or is he still angry with me?"
In fact,it was nothing.Perhaps,my dad was throwing away some of his old stamps.Perhaps he thought they were useless.I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.All the lights were off except my father's.
Dad was always like this.Maybe he didn't know how to express himself.After shouting at me,he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret.However,after an argument he has the habit of tucking me underneath the covers (掖被子)while I am sleeping.
This was how he always was.He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.
The light was still on. "Am I wrong?" I whispered,maybe ...With the key in my hand,I was as nervous as I had ever been.At last,I decided to open the door.As soon as I opened the door,tears ran down my cheeks.I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all.Love - it's second to none.

3.Although it is a business not many are aware of,sidewalk robots are set to become an industry with annual sales of ﹩1 bn within a decade,reckons IDTechEx,a British firm of analysts.These four-or six-wheeled autonomous machines,usually the size of a suitcase,are already delivering groceries and other goods in America,China and Europe.
That puts them ahead of many driverless cars,vans and lorries being developed.Those bigger vehicles are held back not by technology but regulation,says Zehao Li of IDTechEx.So having a "safety driver" on board ready to take over if there is a problem,which is hardly labor-saving.
For these larger contraptions regulators want to see safety systems thoroughly proved.But there are legal hurdles,too.In January Britain's Law Commission,which reviews legislation,recommended that it should not be the person in the driver's seat who faces prosecution if a vehicle in autonomous mode crashes,but the manufacturer or body that sought approval for its use.
Meanwhile,sidewalk robots are getting on with the job.Among them,Starship Technologies,based in San Francisco,reckons it has already clocked up more than 2.5 m deliveries with bots in a number of cities,university campuses and business parks in Europe and America.Amazon is carrying out trials with a similar sort of machine it calls Scout.Kiwibot,a Colombian startup,is making sidewalk deliveries in Califomia.
Typically,these robots carry a few bags of groceries using a variety of sensors,including cameras,radar and GPS to navigate and avoid obstacles and people.Their progress can be monitored on a phone app,which also unlocks them for goods to be retrieved.As they are small,move slowly(Starship's bots might reach a heady 6 kph) and are "telemonitored" by people in a control room who can take over,authorities seem more willing to give them a green light.
Such robots are also becoming more autonomous.In January Serve Robotics,another San Franciscan firm whose backers include Uber,a ride-hailing giant,said it had deployed a new sidewalk bot with "level 4" autonomy,which means it can operate without telemonitoring in some predesignated areas.
Robotic versions which operate on roads but have no driver's cab are also appearing.Nuro,a Silicon Valley firm,makes one about the size of a small car that can carry 24 bags of groceries.It has chilled and heated compartments for food and drinks.Further along the road in earning their keep,these delivery bots are helping to pave the way for the time when bigger autonomous vehicles can join them.
(1)What can we learn from paragraph one?
A.Sidewalk robots are portable like a suitcase.
B.In the past decade,Ibn dollars have been invested into industry.
C.The delivery industries of the US,China and Europe are dependent on sidewalk robots.
D.The industry of sidewalk robot is expanding unknowingly.
(2)According to the passage,who should be responsible for automatic driving car accidents?
A.Safety drivers seated in the driver's seat.
B.Every passenger except the driver.
C.Organizations supportive of autonomous mode.
D.Manufacturers and bodies seeking approval for using safety drivers.
(3)What does the underlined phrase in paragraph four mean?
A.reached
B.designed
C.bought
D.invented
(4)Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Amazon is using Scout to deliver groceries for people.
B.If groceries are wrongly delivered,robots can take them back.
C.Some robots may deliver groceries with no one telemonitoring them.
D.Both cold and hot food can be preserved inside a sidewalk robot developed by Nuro.組卷:21引用:3難度:0.5

9.This evening as I was leaving a supermarket where I had just bought many daily necessities and food,I noticed this man going through the garbage can outside of the store.As I walked to my car I watched him as he reached in the garbage can and pulled out fast food trash bags and inspected all that was in the thrown-away bags.He did this for several minutes.He would find a few fries in one bag and a bite or two of a hamburger in another.You can see the hamburger wrapper by his knee where he was placing the food items he'd found.
He never bothered anyone or tried to stop and beg for money as people entered and left the store.After he went through the entire trash can he neatly cleaned up the area and wrapped up the food he found in the dirty hamburger wrapper.My heart literally hurt for him.I am not someone who just hands out money or even helps homeless people because so many are not truly homeless.I don't guess I've ever seen someone actually go through a garbage can to try to find food to eat.
I knew I had to help him.I got out of my car and asked him if I could buy him something to eat.He told me he would appreciate anything I could get him.He was on a bike and I told him if he'd follow me,I'd buy him a meal at the fast food place around the block.He followed me and I bought him the biggest meal they had on the menu.
When I brought him his food,he was so thankful.He told me his name was Steve and he'd been homeless ever since his sister died last September.He was trying to get off the streets,but it was so hard.
