I’m very glad to receive your letter. From your letter, I know you have shown
__1__
great interest in inventing new things. That’s great. As for how to be an inventor, there is no quick answer to
__2__
.
Coming from different cultures and having different backgrounds, inventors do not seem to have much
__3__
common. But creative thinking,
__4__
is greatly valued, is perhaps the basic skill an inventor should have. In order to explore new possibilities, you will have to learn to break
__5__
from old thought patterns. When you get stuck, try to look at the problem in
__6__
many ways as possible. Each new way may improve your understanding.
More importantly, always keep it in your mind
__7__
success is no accident. It is the result of a long process of trial and error. Above
__8__, the main task for you is to study hard and try to learn more knowledge. This, of course, will lay a solid foundation.
Hope your future invention will make a difference.

The poor are very wonderful people. One evening we went out and we picked up four people from the street. And __9__
of them was in a most terrible condition, and I told the sisters: You take care of the other three. I take care of this one __10__
looked worse. So I did for her all that my love can do. I put her in bed, and there was such __11__
beautiful smile on her face. She took hold of my hand as she said just the words “thank you” __12__
she died. I could not help but examine my conscience before her and I asked what I would say __13__
I were in her place. And my answer was very simple. I would have tried to draw a little attention __14__
myself. I would have said “I am hungry, I am dying, I am cold, I am in pain”, or something, but she gave me much more—she gave me her grateful love. And she died __15__
a smile on her face. That is why we believe __16__
Jesus had said: I was hungry, I was naked, I was homeless, I was unwanted, unloved, uncared for, and you did it to me.

New studies show how food and its production affect the globe and its climate. The process of making a hamburger, for example, requires lots of energy. A cow has to be fed and raised on farmland. And cow waste is a major source of methane(沼气)— __25__
especially powerful greenhouse gas. The cow has to be killed. The meat has to be processed and shipped,
__26__
takes fuel. Most of the cow won’t even be used for meat people eat. By the time a hamburger finally lands to a dinner plate,
__27__
has made bad effect on the environment.
We can reduce the production of global warming gases by eating less beef. Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do
__28__
harm to the environment—at least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released.
__29__ , all kinds of meat are harder
__30__
the planet than vegetables.
__31__
changing our diet to less meat and more vegetables, as it turns
__32__, may do the world some good.

MahruZ has a humanlike

__34__
with, media reports said on Monday. “The most distinctive strength of MahruZ
__35__
its visual ability to observe objects, recognize the tasks needed to be completed, and carry
__36__
out,”You BumJae, head of the cognitive(认知) robot centre at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology, told the Korea Times. “It recognizes people, can turn on microwave ovens, washing machines and toasters, and also pick up sandwiches, cups
__37__
whatever else it senses as
objects.”
The institute took two years to develop MahruZ,
__38__
is 1.3 metres tall and weighs 55 kilograms. It could also work with an earlier maid robot called MarhuM which moves on wheels, since both can be remotely controlled through a computer server.

But mass production for commercial
__40__
is still on the way.
