The sounds you make will hit the walls and come back to you. The walls reflect the sounds. These reflected sounds are called “echoes”.We can use reflected sound to make sound travel farther. Hold a watch about fifty centimeters from your ear. You cannot hear it. The sound of the watch travels a short way in all directions. It does not travel as far as your ear. You can make it travel to your ear by using a roll of cardboard(纸板筒).Make the roll of cardboard about fifty centimeters long. Put one end over your ear and hold the watch at the other. Now you can hear the watch because the sound has not gone in all directions. It is reflected down the roll to your ear.A megaphone(喇叭筒)works in the same way. It makes sound travel farther. It reflects the sound into a beam which can travel a long way. In the ship, the sailor uses the megaphone to make his voice travel. Without the megaphone, his voice cannot travel far.We use reflected sound in many ways. We use it to measure the depth of the sea, for example. Among the animals, bats and whales use reflected sound to tell them where they are and what things are near them.26 . Which is the right order of hearing our echo in a very large, empty hall?a. We hear the reflected sound b. The sound returns to usc. The sound hits the walls d. We make a soundAc, b, a, dBc, a, b, dCd, c, b, aDd, b, c, a27 . . From the text we learn that _ . Areflected sound is useful only to blind peopleBpeople havent made use of reflected sound yetCbats use reflected sound to fly and get foodDwhales dont use reflected sound as they live in the sea28 .

And he made a plan to do something.And that was the beginning of it, said Barbara. “ Thats when the plan began.”Jaden asked his aunt Barbara to buy a lot of little toys and bring him to downtown Savannah, Georgia near where he lives. There he gave away the little toys when he found anyone not happy“ Im trying to make people smile. I want to turn their unhappy days around.” said Jaden. He went around to look for unhappy people.

Pretty soon, they could be making your bed and breakfast too. Increasingly, engineers are saying that robots are going to move out of research departments and into your home. Companies including Sony and General Electric are working on designs for small robots. Products like the Roomba, a robot that can clean floors, are flying off the shelves. Whats behind this new robot revolution? Its partly a matter of technology. Devices that can recognize and respond to a human voice have been developed. There are now a few different ways for robots to move around. They can walk, crawl or ride on wheels. Robots are being made smaller and smaller. They are also becoming more and more energy efficient. A bigger part of the story is on the demand side. From the day the television remote control was invented, people around the world have searched for new ways to be lazy. Take into consideration that more and more people can afford robots, and the time seems ripe to introduce robots to the average family.To be sure, robots that walk on two legs and talk like people are still a long way off.
