23、ld some kinds of experimental electric self- driving cars that look like a Smart car or Fiat 500. There is no steering wheel(方向盘)，gas pedal or brake.

He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow de

35、ep roots in search of water.So, instead of watering his trees every morning, hed beat them with a rolled up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the trees attention.Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Sometimes I walked by his house and looked at the t

36、rees Id watched him plant 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.I planted several trees myself a few years ago. Two years of caring for these trees meant they grew up weakly.

40、 new good friends.What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue(援救)dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people.

42、smelled that person.Although there are already robots which can do this job， rats are better. “Robots noses dont work well when there are other smells around.

43、ctricity!The “rat project” is not finished， but a scientist says， “It would be great.
