任務(wù)型閱讀

How will the Internet change the world? Will we enjoy a smarter life in the future? Many of the world’s biggest Internet companies took part in an important meeting. They talked about how to build a future for our online world. The Internet can make our lives easier in many ways. The companies at the meeting showed us some of their latest technology. Here are some examples. Let's take a look.

Lip reading Machines can not only read faces. They can also read your lip movements. The Chinese Internet company Sogou has made lip reading technology. You don’t need to speak aloud. The machine turns your lip movements into voice or text. This could be very useful if you are in a noisy place and people cannot hear you on your phone. Police can also use this technology. Sometimes they see criminals on city-monitoring cameras, but they don’t know what they say. The lip reading technology can help people with this.

Smart shoes Your feet might hurt if your shoes do not fit you. This won’t happen if you wear “smart” custom-made shoes. The Xiemofang company brought a machine to the meeting. The machine scans(掃描) your feet. It records 39 parts of your feet. It even records how long each toe is. It also has a database. The database has more than 10, 000 kinds of shoes. You can choose the color and style. It also gives you suggestions for your choices. The suggestions are based on records of other people’s feet. You can get your new shoes after 10 days.

Unmanned supermarkets You walk into a supermarket, pick out your goods and go to check out. But there is no worker. There is just a tablet that says “Please smile” When you smile, it gives you a discount. Your money goes from your Alipay account to the supermarket. You don't need to do anything. The Alibaba company has made this supermarket. When you go into the supermarket, it knows your face and your Alipay account. It also knows your facial expressions. So it knows how much you like your goods. The supermarket not only makes shopping easier. It also understands you.

Clay Warner is wearing his basketball clothes, waiting in the chair for his chance to play—but until last week, nobody asked him to play. Although the 18- year-old students does well in playing basketball, his coach wouldn’t like to bring Clay into play. He is afraid that Clay would get hurt.

This is because it’s kind of difficult for Clay to see things—even when he wears glasses. His mother says that he was born with cerebral palsy(腦癱). Although he tries his best to look at the basketball hoop by focusing on the right corner of his glasses, it is not easy for him to do it well.

On the high school’s Senior Night last week, Clay’s coach finally called him to play during the final minute of the game. With the watchers already standing to give him a warm welcome, Clay got into position as the crowd cheered him up.

“I want to get him in. It was Senior Night,” the head coach told reporters. “If there is an opportunity for him, I wanted to take advantage of it. All the player were for it, too.”

Once the game was back in play, one of Clay’s teammates passed him the ball. Though he had been practising shooting hoops since he was in the third grade, this was the first time he had ever taken a shot on his high school basketball team.

As the watchers waited, Clay took the shot and dropped the ball clean through the net, hardly touching the rim(邊框)—and the watchers shouted in wild cheers.

“This whole gym was calling my name,” Clay told the news reporters. “The whole crowd was jumping . They were going crazy. It was like I were a little kid again.”
