After all

12、, who would choose a plastic toy over a lovely puppy? But Rault argues that the robotic kind has a lot going for it: “You dont have to feed it, you dont have to walk it, it wont make a mess in your house, and you can go on a holiday without feeling guilty.” The technology also benefits those who are

13、 allergic to pets, short on space, or fearful of real animals.Its not clear whether robot pets can replace real ones. But studies do suggest that we can bond with these smart machines. People give their cars names and kids give their toy animals life stories. Its the same with robots. When Sony stop

15、perhaps it will change how humans care about other living beings,” he said.So are dogs and cats a thing of the past, as Rault predicts?

36、rican writer Harper Lees book To Kill a Mockingbird. Now compare her words to another famous expression: “Blood is thicker than water”.However, if forced to choose which is more important, American researchers now say friendship is more important than family. Their new study suggests that friends ma

37、y be more important than family members, especially as we age.The study comes from researchers at Michigan State University. They found the importance of friendship on health and happiness grows as people get older.William Chopik is an assistant professor of psychology at Michigan State and was one

38、of the lead researchers in this study. He says, “Friendship becomes even more important as we age. Keeping a few really good friends around can make a world of difference for our health and well-being.” Chopik notes that we need to think of friendship as an investment in our future happiness.The Mic

39、higan State researchers considered information from two separate surveys. In the first group, both family and friendships influenced overall health and happiness. However, in the second, researchers said that friendships “became a stronger predictor of health and happiness” as people get older. Also

40、 in the second group, unhealthy friendships led to increased chronic conditions. But with supportive friends, Chopik noted, participants reported being happier.One reason is that people can keep the friendships that make them feel good and move on from the ones that dont. Family, on the other hand,

41、will always be with you. They can be helpful and enjoyable, but can also cause troubles.This may be good news for people who dont have strong ties with family members. Not all of us are born into the families we need. But we all have the ability to choose friends that we need.1、595What should we inv

45、is a Christmas must-watch and one of Jim Carreys best performances. It was also originally a nursery tale book written by Dr Seuss. Its the story of a green monster who wants to ruin Christmas but who in the end discovers the power of love and generosity. I promise its a great film with plenty of la

46、ughs along the way.Love Actually (2003)While this is not a personal favourite of mine, people in the UK absolutely love this film. It has many featuring actors and actresses. It might be a little difficult to follow as there are complex plots, so I recommend watching a translated version or enabling

47、 subtitles (字幕) in your native language. However, the heart-warming elements of the film make it worth watching.Home Alone (1990)This amusing masterwork is one of my favourite films of all time. It tells the story of a boy, Kevin, who is left alone in his house when his large family forgets to take

48、him on vacation with them. While the families are away, burglars try to rob the house and Kevin must protect his home by setting traps. The trips, falls and traps will have you laughing out loud as you watch a 10-year-old boy beat two grown men.Miracle on 34th Street (192)You cant have Christmas in

49、an English-speaking country without watching this movie. Its not funny like Home Alone or The Grinch, but it is incredibly touching.
