The Beijing Expo Park,where the International Horticultural Exhibition(国际园艺展)took place in 2019,has become a camping resort this summer. Twelve camping areas each named after the constellations(星座)have recently opened to the public at the park.
"When I see parents and children put down their mobile phones and enjoy their family time,I feel happy. At this moment,all our efforts in organizing this camping festival have paid off ," said Xue He,a camping operator at the park.
"Located in the Yanqing district of Beijing,the camping area covers about 280,000 square meters. It provides more than 1,000 camping spots where tourists can spend their leisure time on picnics,fishing,horse riding,boating,and many other activities,"said Han Weiwei,a manager of the Beijing Expo Park Investment and Development.
At the camping area named after Sagittarius,tents are spread throughout the woods, while a wooden trestle(支架) connects the campsites. "We pursue harmony between humans and nature,so the original plants were preserved as much as possible,"said Liu Xiao'ou,an operator in the area.
"Horse riding is one of the most popular activities here,"Liu said,adding that campers can ride horses in the Sagittarius area under the guidance of coaches. Children can also interact with some little cute horses which are less than one meter in height.
As the altitude in Yanqing is higher than that in downtown Beijing,the expo park is much cooler in summer. "This is favorable for camping. These abundant activities have given" Is so much fun," said a resident surnamed Yin from downtown Beijing.
In the coming three months,the Beijing Expo Park is going to host more than 30 activities during the camping festival,including bicycle races,fishing contests and night runs,ac-cording to the organizers.
While it may sound like something that has come out of your nightmares, cyborg cockroaches (蟑螂机器人) have arrived as friends rather than enemies.
Scientists in Japan have designed a new remote controlled insect, equipped with a battery"backpack" that is powered by solar panels. The cockroach, which is part insect and part machine, is intended to enter dangerous areas, monitor the environment or undertake search and rescue missions without needing to be recharged. The researchers from the RIKEN Cluster for Pioneering Research had to install some items into a tiny pack to allow for all the cockroach's natural movements.
Being able to survive the tough conditions,cockroaches,the ancient insects,have been the stimulus for a number of technologies in recent years. Therefore,different teams of scientists have designed various remote-controlled robo-bugs (机器虫) that can climb walls,carry objects and find humans during search and rescue missions.
Previously,wires were attached to the cyborg cockroach's two sensory organs to send electrical signals that caused the"insect"to move right or left. A battery was necessary for the sending and receiving of these electrical signals,which needed to be charged up.
So the RIKEN team wanted to create a more practical one. Finally,they designed an on-board solar cell that could continuously ensure that the cockroach stayed charged while it worked. The solution was to design a special" backpack"that could neatly carry both the wireless leg-control module and rechargeable battery. This was attached to the top of the in-sect,and was 3D printed to fit perfectly to the surface of the cyborg cockroach. It allowed this electronic device to be firmly fitted on the"insect"for over a month.
Detecting a person with a high temperature who could be carrying COVID-19 isn't as easy as it may seem,especially in a crowd. Yet that's what public health authorities(官方) want to do in the countries around the world.
Thales,an electronic equipment manufacturer,is conducting a study with the NHS(National Health Service)Scotland for a new system to detect individuals with high temperatures,whether they're on their own or in the middle of a crowd. The trial is being conducted at the emergency department of the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow. This first section of the trial was performed over a four-week period with around 100 patients—a relatively small sample,admittedly,but big enough to show some interesting correlations (相关性) and confirm whether the concept was trusted. The trial could now be extended to a much broader population of patients.
"Most existing solutions are based on industrial systems and they're not designed for medical uses,"said Willie Alexander,Technical Director for Thales Optronics. "They can on-ly scan one face at a time,they're less accurate,and they need to be operated by specialist technicians. With our system,we can scan entire groups of people at the same time and focus on the parts of the face with the same temperature as an ear thermometer(温度计),which is the standard equipment for healthcare professionals. And the solution uses machine learning, so the more patients we work with,the better the model gets. "
lf the promising initial results of this trial are confirmed,the solution could be used in other sensitive public spaces where groups of individuals need to have their temperatures taken quickly and reliably,such as border areas and airports. And because it 's entirely contactless and none of the data is stored,the method makes both the testers and the people being tested less worried.

With high yield and superior quality,Chinese hybrid rice varieties have been introduced around the world,. (benefit) more people. The export of China's hybrid rice technology started many years ago. In 1979,China provided hybrid rice seeds to another country for the first time,and 40 years later,in(real),China's hybrid rice has been planted in dozens of countries in the world.
In the past 40 years,Chinese scientists (devote) to providing assistance to many other countries. China has trained more than 14,000 hybrid rice professionals for more than80 developing countries through international training courses. This technology has spreadmore and more places in the world so far.

His hybrid rice research has been( entire) saving millions of people from hunger. Yuan's dream was( solve) the global food shortage and promote hybrid rice around the world. China has achieved great wonder,feeding nearly one-fifth of the world's population with less than nine percent of the world's total land. And China is(will) to contribute to global food security and calls for joint efforts to end global hunger and poverty.

After knowing that she couldn't bear a child,Helen was devastated(悲痛欲绝的).One day while she was driving home from the café,a dirty puppy(幼犬)in the road caught Helen's attention. After consideration,Helen and her husband eventually decided to take him home. And they later named him Ollie.
Two years later,Ollie had grown into a large ball of fur. Ollie was Helen's world,and she hated it whenever someone addressed him as her rescue dog. Helen never went out with-out Ollie. One day,they were hanging out together outside a supermarket,unprepared for what was coming their way.
"Hey boy,wait in the car. I'll be back,alright?"Helen said as she patted Ollie on his head. She locked him in the car and headed to the supermarket because Ollie hated crowded places and never accompanied Helen to the stores.
Moments later,there was a sudden outburst of chaos(混乱). Helen was busy shopping and had no idea it was raining heavily outside. The whole area began to flood unexpectedly. People rushed to every open store they could find for shelter.
12-year-old boy Matt was looking for a place to run to safety when he spotted people running to the supermarket nearby. He had no time to think and ran after them.
Matt hurried upstairs with the rest. Suddenly,Helen noticed the situation and was. alarmed. "What happened?"she asked a man and screamed at the top of her lungs when she learned of the flood. All she could think of was Ollie trapped in the car.
"OLLIE…, left my dog in the car,"she cried,running toward the window. "My dog is trapped in the car. Somebody,please…"
Matt looked outside and saw the car Helen pointed to was in the flash flood. Helen was frightened to go out because she didn't know how to swim. Matt understood Helen's anxiety and ran to her pet's rescue.
He grabbed an iron rod(棒子)from the corner and raced downstairs. "Hey kid,where are you going? You will drown,"someone shouted. But Matt turned a deaf ear to him because he was determined to save Ollie. In the meanwhile,some people placed a call to the rescue center.
