I made a sandwich for my mum on her birthday. First, I picked a piece of bread. Then I put some tomato sauce, ham and vegetables on it. At last, I put another piece of bread on it. Mum liked the sandwich very much and I felt happy.
I think using brain and hands more often is a good way to help us be more creative.
I’m looking forward to your reply.

Smaller changes might include having a new teacher or adapting(适应) to parents’ new work schedules. All these can create strong emotions, but that’s normal.

Life would be great if everything stays the same forever. F. This makes us anxious because we don't know what's coming. G. Life would be boring if nothing changes.
四、阅读短文回答问题
Did you find it hard to do something because two arms just weren't enough If so, you might be interested in a new device, a robotic arm. You can wear this robotic arm in the middle of the chest and control it through the muscle you use to breathe. It can move above your shoulders or to your side, depending on what you want to do, says engineer Giulia Domi from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. The arm is designed to be used as an extra arm.
It’s difficult to control the extra arm while still using your real arms. That’s why Domi’s team made it breath-controlled. Taking a deep breath tells the arm to extend, while breathing out deeply pulls it back. Breathing normally keeps the arm in place.
Before building the real robotic arm, Domi’s team first made one in virtual reality(虚拟现实), or VR. The team found that people seemed to naturally learn to control the virtual arm. The researchers then built a real robotic arm to work like the virtual one had done. Participants who had learned to use the extra virtual arm had a success rate of about 90% using the real one. So it is easy for people to learn to use it.
The extra robotic arms could help people to do extra things. For example, workers could use them to control machinery for risky jobs more easily. Doctors could use the extra arms for surgeries (外科手术). Also, they could be helpful for disabled people or people recovering from accidents or strokes.
However, there is still room for improvement. Although people could use the robotic arm in everyday tasks, they are as expensive as some devices like the VR glasses. Early tests showed that people could look around and talk while using the extra arm. But it’s still not clear how well people can control their two natural arms along with an extra robotic one. “ When you add something new, it’s uncertain how much the brain can do with that,” says Jacob George from the University of Utah’s robotics centre.
1. Where do people wear this robotic arm
________________________________________.
2. Why did Domi’s team design the robotic arm to be breath-controlled
___________________________________________________________.
3. What did Domi’s team do before building the real robotic arm
___________________________________________________________.
4. What do you think of the robotic arm Why do you think so (Give 2 reasons.)
___________________________________________________________.
