Why AI has not taken your job
Almost every week the world takes another step in the direction of artificial general intelligence. In cities
such as London and San Francisco, “How long do you reckon you have left in your job?” is a common topic of
conversation. But is ChatGPT actually putting anyone out of work?
Lots of experts claim that it is. Many point to a recent paper by Carl Benedikt Frey and Pedro Llanos-
Paredes, both of the University of Oxford, 1 suggests a link between automation and declining demand
for translators. At the same time, however, official American data suggest that the number of people employed in
interpretation, translation and the like 2 (be) 7% higher than a year ago. 3 point to Klarna, a
tech firm, which had boasted about using the tech to automate customer service. But the company is now
undertaking an about-turn. “There will always be a human if you want,” its boss, has recently said.
Others still search through economic data to find signs that AI 4 cause many people to lose their
jobs in the future. One popular measure is the ratio of the unemployment rate between recent college graduates and
the overall American average. Young graduates are now 5 (likely) than the average worker to be jobless.
The explanation runs that they typically do entry-level jobs in knowledge-intensive industries- 6 making
slides in a management consultancy. It is exactly this sort of task that AI can do well. So maybe the technology has
eliminated these jobs?
Well, no. The data simply do not line up 7 any possible mechanism. Young graduates’ “relative
unemployment” started to rise in 2009, long before generative AI came along. And their actual unemployment rate,
at around 6%, remains low. We examine American data on employment by occupation, singling out workers that
are believed to be vulnerable to AI, including people in back-office support, financial operations and much more
besides. There is a similar pattern here: we find no evidence of an AI hit.
There are two 8 (compete) explanations for these trends. The first is that, 9 the endless
announcements about how firms are integrating AI into their operations, few make much use of the technology for
serious work. An official measure suggests that less than 10% of American companies employ it to produce goods
and services. The second is that even when companies do adopt the tech, they do not let people go. AI may simply
help workers do their jobs faster. 10 the explanation, for now there is no need to panic.

Coral Cultures
Studying corals usually requires either observing them alive in the ocean or examining their dead tissue in a
laboratory. But new research offers a way to keep all coral cell types alive in a lab cultures for two weeks or 1
(long), opening novel experimental possibilities.
The cells of cnidarians (a group that includes corals and sea anemones) are notoriously difficult 2
(culture). These cells 3 (easily damage) during extraction, and corals also have complex microbiomes
(微生物群) that are tricky to wipe out with antibiotics. But 4 left alive, the microbes often take over cell
cultures.
Many cnidarians are both endangered and critical for marine ecosystem health. “We need to do more than
just document 5 death,” says University of Miami marine biologist Nikki Traylor-Knowles, who is senior
author on a new study in Scientific Reports. In it, her team details how to reduce a coral to its constituent cells and
then grow them all together — like 6 (cultivate) the animal on a plate.
The researchers made slight changes to a standard growth medium (made of seawater, chemicals and
antibiotics) to reach optimal formulas for two different cnidarian species. These formulas let all the 7
(test) species’ cell types grow at once, without microbes or extraneous (无关的) tissues. The new methodology will
bring unparalleled visibility into how cell types interact, Traylor-Knowles says, and it will allow for higher-volume
experiments without raising or killing whole animals.
Scientists do not yet understand all cnidarian cell types, 8 their functions. These cultures could
show how different cells respond to stressors, 9 types are most vulnerable to health failures, and possibly
where cnidarians get their impressive regenerative abilities.
The study is groundbreaking, says molecular biologist Juris Grasis of the University of California, Merced,
who was not involved with the paper but also studies cnidarians. He says he was “jealous as hell” when he saw the
result. Some cell populations survived for as long as 30 days, he notes, 10 implies the possibility of
scaling up cell reproduction for future research. Next up, Grasis says: “How do we translate this back into the field
and make corals healthy again?”

The Internet is changing the way we communicate. LOL, awks, amazeballs, BRB, the use of emoji and
emoticon — and even writing facial expressions such as ‘sad face’ — have all become standard in digital
communications. So ingrained, in fact, 1 they're changing the way we write and even talk.
There’s no doubt that the consumption of abbreviated digital content is having a huge effect on language.
“Over the last five years attention spans have shortened considerably, which is reflected in the 2
(contract) forms of language we see in social media,” says Robin Kermode.
However, some think that the internet has made us better communicators since we increasingly use much
3 (streamlined) language. “ 4 (get) a message across using Twitter for example, it must be concise
and must conform to the tone used there, which includes abbreviations, acronyms.”
The fastest growing ‘new language’ in the world is emoticons (faces) and emojis (images of objects, which
hail from Japan), which are one of the biggest changes caused by digital communications. “Facial expressions,
visual presence and body language have always been vital to being a confident speaker, 5 now emojis are
blurring the lines between verbal and written communication,” thinks Kermode, who adds that cavemen had early
versions of emojis on the sides of their caves. “Pictures, cartoons or emojis are ‘shortcuts’ so we can be clear about
6 our message really means.”
Emoticons and emojis are arguably more meaningful than slang and shorthand, which 7 be too
easily misunderstood. “I once witnessed a girl being dumped in a text, which 8 (consist) of a message
with just five letters, U R MY X' — linguistically economic, but emotionally harsh,” says Kermode. Trouble is, the
sender had actually meant YOU ARE MINE. X’ “If he’d added three emojis — like a smiley face, a heart and a
wedding ring, he might now be happily married!”
The same goes 9 a statement such as “I NEED TO SPEAK TO YOU RIGHT NOW”, which needs
a qualifying emoticon or emoji to give it meaning. “It could signal an angry meeting or a passionate meeting but
add a coffee cup, a big smiley face or an angry face and it becomes clear what’s really going on,” says Kermode.
They may be derided by traditionalists, but emoticons and emojis used to describe mood are the body
language add-on 10 the written word has always lacked. In most instances, these icons represent
language evolution and progress, not regression.

The Fifth-generation Combat Planes Displayed on China’s Military Parade
The People’s Liberation Army has displayed all types of its fifth-generation combat planes on active duty for
the first time via the grand parade on Wednesday, a move that observers say 1 (intend) to show its world-
class air prowess.
All of the five models — the J-20, J-20A, J-20S and J-35A of the PLA Air Force as well as the PLA Navy’s
J-35 — thundered past the Tian’anmen Square in central Beijing as they flew in several arrowhead-shaped groups
around the end of a 70-minute parade, 2 (mark) the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese
People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War.
Wang Yanan, chief editor of Aerospace Knowledge magazine, told China Daily that this is the first time in
the history of the People’s Republic of China that so much new hardware 3 (send) to a parade.
“ 4 we have seen is an unprecedented unveiling of China’s domestically developed weaponry such
as those new aircraft. All of these previously unseen weapons have state-of-the-art designs and superior
capabilities, and have tremendously enhanced the Chinese armed forces’ overall strength,” Wang said.
The J-20S, like other members of the J-20 series, was designed by the Chengdu Aircraft Design and
Research Institute. The twin-seat plane is characterized by its supreme ability to seize superiority in air combat,
carry out precision strikes 5 land and sea targets, and perform battlefield situational awareness, electronic
jamming as well as tactical command and control
The twin-seat variant (变体) can have a backup flight-control system 6 (install) for the backseat
operator to use 7 the main system malfunctions or is damaged in action, or the front-seat pilot becomes
incapacitated.
The J-20A, 8 J-20 variant, has several external differences from the baseline model: an enlarged
spine, reshaped nosecone, and modified engine intakes optimized for new, mightier engines developed by Chinese
engineers on their own.
Its engines are widely believed to have thrust ( 推力) vector control technology 9 provides
significant benefits in flight maneuverability (机动性). The technology enables a pilot to adjust the engine exhaust
nozzles (喷口) 10 (redirect) thrust, allowing the plane to carry out previously unimaginable maneuvers at
very high angles of attack, meaning its nose is pointed at an angle greatly exceeding the jet’s current vector.

The responsibility of safeguarding China’s airspace is not placed solely on combat aircraft. Ground-based
air-defense and anti-ballistic (反弹道的) missile systems are another significant component in defending 1
incoming air threats.
2 (display) its multi-stage, multi-layer air and missile defense network, the Air Force brought six types
of advanced systems to the parade. The occasion 3 marks the public debut of the HQ-20 and HQ-22A anti-
aircraft (防空的) missile systems, attracts wide attention from military enthusiasts at home and abroad. Another
three types-HQ-11, HQ-9C and HQ-19 — 4 (be) part of Chinese defense shows in recent years.
According to Zhang Xuefeng, a military hardware observer and retired PLA officer, the HQ-11, HQ-20, and
HQ-22A are primarily tasked with engaging with conventional threats, and can effectively intercept (拦截) fixed-
wing aircraft, drones, and even short- and medium-range ballistic missiles. What many people are curious about is
5 these advanced anti-aircraft missile systems will be arranged in key coastal areas.
The HQ-19, unveiled for the first time in November 2024, has been designed for regional protection against
ballistic missiles at the high-altitude terminal phase, 6 (characterize) by a large coverage and strong
countermeasures.These traits make 7 a backbone equipment for China's homeland air defense and missile
interception operations, according to Zhang.
“The combination of the HQ-9 series and the HQ-19 will form 8 powerful, multi-layer network to
keep our important assets safe from threats from air,” the observer noted.
Wang Yanan, chief editor of Aerospace Knowledge magazine, said that in addition to conventional ballistic
missiles (弹道导弹), the HQ-19 is able to counter hypersonic (超音速的) glide vehicle weapons that boast
extremely fast speeds and supreme agility. As a cutting-edge strike hardware, the hypersonic glide vehicle weapon
is virtually impossible to intercept by previous air-defense missiles and a significant threat 9 (pose) to
high-value assets.
As the 10 (large) surface-to-air missile system China has ever shown, the HQ-29 is a mid-course
interceptor designed to engage threats outside the Earth's atmosphere. Analysts have pointed to its large-diameter
launch canisters and dual-missile configuration as possible indicators of a design meant to boost interception odds
against fast and maneuvering ballistic targets.

Do We Really Need 8 Hours of Sleep? Culture Matters
People in different countries sleep varying amounts, and cultural beliefs about sleep play a significant role in
its relationship to health. Studies have shown that Japanese people sleep significantly less than 1 in the
United States, Canada, and Europe. Research has shown that Japanese people sleep 25 minutes less on average than
Americans and 40 minutes less than Dutch people. Despite sleeping less than the 2 (recommend) eight
hours, Japanese individuals generally have better health outcomes, living longer with lower rates of cancer and
heart disease compared to North Americans.
This creates a puzzle. One reason for this 3 be cultural dietary habits. Americans tend to consume
more red meat and dairy, while the Japanese eat more fish, fruits, and vegetables. However, this alone doesn’t fully
explain the health differences.
Why do Japanese individuals seem healthier 4 they sleep less? In Japan, people tend to believe
that sleep is a luxury, not a necessity, and 5 sacrificing sleep is vital for success. In North American
culture, there is a strong, widespread belief that getting 8 hours of sleep is essential for 6 (maintain) good
health.
A specific study led by Benjamin Cheung investigated these cultural differences, 7 researchers
compared 295 university students from Canada and Japan. Participants wore watches 8 (track) their
actual sleep and answered questions about sleep beliefs and health. The results were clear: Japanese students
averaged about 6 hours of sleep per night, significantly less than 7 hours among Canadian students. Interestingly,
fewer physical health symptoms 9 (report) among the Japanese students.
Therefore, the relationship 10 how long you sleep and your health is not absolute. It seems to be
significantly influenced by your cultural background and personal beliefs about sleep.

Beijing Hosts the World’s First-ever Humanoid (像人的) Robot Half Marathon
Running is for everyone — and everything, as it now happens. That’s 1 China has just staged a half
marathon where humans weren’t the only participants. In addition to about 12,000 living, breathing runners, this
race also welcomed 21 humanoid robots to its start line.
This half marathon, which took place in Beijing on Saturday, 2 (believe) to be the first running event
of its kind and a landmark moment for the Chinese robotics industry. 3 the humans and robots ran along
separate tracks, likely for safety reasons which you’ll appreciate better in a moment, it was the first time that these
two types of participants 4 (take) part in the same race.And it proved that bipedal (两腿行走的) robots
can run a significant distance in real-world conditions.
However, the robots’ performances on race day were chaotic. One robot fell at the starting line and stayed
down for several minutes. 5 ran into a fence after just a few meters. Only six of the 21 competing robots, all
of 6 had to be bipedal rather than on wheels, successfully completed the course. The best of the bunch was
a humanoid called Tiangong Ultra, 7 (develop) by the Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, which
won the robot race in 2 hours and 40 minutes. Even better, Tiangong Ultra crossed the finish line 8 the
human cut-off time of three hours and 10 minutes. It made it the only robot 9 (qualify) for a human
participation award. It was the tallest robot in the field, too, 70 (tower) over many human adults at nearly
six feet (about 1.8 meters). By contrast, the shortest robot participant — which wore a blue and white tracksuit and
waved at people every few seconds — was just 2.5 feet (about 0.76 meters) tall.

Even moderate drinking might shrink your brain
New research suggests that moderate drinking can negatively impact health. The study found a link between
regular alcohol consumption — as little as one to two drinks a day — and decreased brain volume in middle-aged
and older people. 1 they drink or not plays a role in the brain shrinkage.
The study was led by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Wisconsin–
Madison. They analyzed data from the UK Biobank, a long-running project that 2 (track) the health of more
than 35,000 UK residents in the past few years.
As part of the project, volunteers fill out questionnaires about their lifestyle habits, consent (同意) to having
their genes studied, and high-quality brain scans. Using these scans, the team looked for any connection between
3 (report) alcohol use and brain structure.
Our brains naturally shrink in size 4 we become older, which is one of the reasons our cognitive
function declines in later age. There are things that 5 either accelerate or slow down this process, though,
such as exercise. And even a moderate alcohol routine, the researchers concluded, seems to be in the former
category.
After controlling for other factors, such as age, body mass index, and head size, the scientists found a
negative correlation between alcohol intake and overall brain volume, including in gray matter, the areas of the
brain rich in neurons and other cells. Alcohol use was similarly linked to changes in our white matter, 6 the
information is relayed (传递) between different regions of the brain.
“We show that the negative associations between alcohol intake and brain macrostructure and
microstructure are already apparent in individuals 7 (consume) an average of only one to two daily alcohol
units, and become 8 (strong) as alcohol intake increases,” the authors wrote in their paper, published in
Nature Communications earlier this month.
The authors say their large sample size is an advantage 9 past studies and allows them to better
understand and quantify the possible toll of regular alcohol use on the brain. Going from zero to one unit of alcohol
(about half a pint) a day, the authors say, would be equivalent to half a year of brain aging in the average 50-year-
old, for instance, but it jumps to two years for someone going from one to two units of alcohol (a full pint) per day.
And for 10 drinking four or more drinks a day, their brains may age prematurely a full decade, relative to
someone who doesn’t drink at all.

Why Fairy Tales Are Really Powerful Tales
When people think of fairy tales, they usually imagine pretty princesses, brave princes and happy endings.
Yet if we look back to the earliest versions of these stories, we discover that fairy tales 1 (never mean) to
be only sweet or child-friendly. In fact, they were originally serious and full of challenges. The fear and danger in
these tales were not accidental — they carried moral, social, and even psychological meaning.
In the past, life was full of risks: diseases, hunger, and poverty. Folk stories reflected that world. In Hansel
and Gretel, two children are abandoned and almost captured by a witch ( 女巫), 2 reminds us that
cleverness and courage are needed for survival. In Little Red Riding Hood, the wolf’s attack teaches young
listeners not to trust strangers. Behind every tense scene, there 3 (stand) a warning about real human
behavior.
Psychologists later pointed out that such stories help children face their inner worries. Bruno Bettelheim, a
well-known scholar, suggested that fairy tales 4 (allow) the mind to deal safely with emotions like
jealousy, loneliness, and loss. The deep parts of the story, 5 (act) like a mirror, help readers understand
the hidden corners of their own hearts.
Modern versions have softened these tales, replacing danger with beauty and loss with happy endings. But
deep down, the original fear is 6 gave fairy tales their power. Without fear, their lessons lose depth. 7
(shape) by facing imaginary monsters, readers learn how to face real-life challenges.
In the end, 8 they reflect the truth of human experience, fairy tales are really powerful tales. They
remind us that 9 reaching “happily ever after,” every hero or heroine still has to walk through the forest
of uncertainty — and it is the journey through that darkness that makes the ending worth 10 (remember).

Are touchscreens in cars dangerous?
It might not have been the first to have a touchscreen but it was Tesla’s Model S that set the trend. For years
almost every new car sold 1 (come) with a high-tech, futuristic screen, which controls everything from
the air conditioning to even safety features like automatic lane-keeping.
But are touchscreens safe? The case against them is straightforward. If using the screen of a smartphone
while driving is distracting, and therefore dangerous, then doing likewise with your car’s, 2 use requires
similar visual attention, is probably risky too. Drivers can learn the location of physical controls and press buttons
without taking their eyes 3 the road. A touchscreen offers no physical feedback, making that much
harder. And because a screen 4 do dozens of jobs, finding a particular setting often means tapping
through several sub-menus. The result, say critics, is a dangerous distraction 5 (build) into the car itself.
Research backs that up. In 2022 Vi Bilagare, a Swedish motoring magazine, measured 6 it took
drivers to do things like switching to a new radio station or changing the temperature, while driving at 110
kilometres per hour. While a driver in an older car with buttons could perform tasks within about ten seconds, the
same tasks using modern touchscreens took up to 45 seconds.
Safety organisations are beginning to notice. From January new rules from Euro NCAP, an organisation that
provides safety ratings, will mean no car can get a full five-star score 7 certain crucial functions are
controlled by real switches.
Many drivers dislike touchscreens for reasons other than safety, finding them inconvenient and annoying
8 (use). Volkswagen has begun restoring at least some buttons to their new models, 9 (cite) drivers’
dislike of screens. But innovation never stops. Even as touchscreens 10 (fall) out of favour, many
manufacturers are turning their attention to voice control — though that is a subject for another story.

When Reality Feels Unreal
In today’s world of perfect pictures and computer-made videos, our sense of what is “real” is quietly
changing. Experts now describe a strange reaction called the “Giving NPC” Effect — a kind of mental mistake in
101 truly real people or scenes suddenly seem unreal. The term comes from video games: NPCs, or non-player
characters, speak and move by fixed rules. More and more, online pictures full of smooth skin, clean rooms, and
perfectly timed actions give a similar feeling of 2 (make) by a machine.
Behind this confusion is the rise of what some call the “after-perfect” look. For years, online life 3
(praise) clean and exact styles. But this kind of perfection has become so common and so even that it now feels
false. Our brains, 4 (build) to expect the small mess of real life—shaking hands, uneven light, little
mistakes — find it hard to believe in images that look too good. When every post seems carefully fixed, realness
itself starts to look like something fake.
This doubt grows stronger 5 AI-made fake videos, which can copy famous people with surprising
truth. 6 we see such a video, our brains learn to be careful about what they see. Soon, even normal videos
make us feel unsure. We start to think, “Something is wrong,” even when nothing is. The more people try to look
perfect online, the 7 (real) they appear to others.
Still, this feeling is not all bad. It shows that people now want natural and simple things — moments that
8 (see) as alive rather than corrected. The quiet change has already begun: random photo groups, soft-focus
videos, and honest speech are now becoming popular. These small signs remind us that life is not perfect; it is full
of noise, and that is 9 makes it true.
10 (regain) trust in our eyes, we may need to change our values. Instead of loving perfection, we
can learn to enjoy honesty more than order. A small pause, a smile line, or a bit of shaking in a voice can tell us
more about being human than the cleanest picture ever could.

Robots entering Chinese homes
During the World Smart Industry Expo 2025, crowds of visitors gathered at the booth of Agile Robots to
watch a robotic arm move precisely over a participant’s waist. Using sensors to detect muscle tension and applying
the ideal amount of pressure for a massage, the robotic arm drew exclamations of amazement: “ 1 technique
is even better than a veteran masseur!”
The healthcare robot 2 (develop)by the Beijing-based company is called "Dabai” and is equipped
with tactile sensors and artificial intelligence algorithms. It can provide users with professional massage
services.With a focus on “AI+” and “Intelligent Connected New Energy Vehicles”this year, the four-day expo from
Friday to Monday brought together more than 600 domestic and international businesses, 3 (showcase)
over 3,000 innovations in the smart technology industry.
One particular highlight of the exhibition area was the various smart robot products 4 targeted
ordinary Chinese households. “The physiotherapy services industry relies on the therapist’s skills and faces
challenges such as long training periods and a high staff turnover,” said Zhang Mingfeng, electrical supervisor at
Agile Robots. “The key to 5 (address) industry bottlenecks is to standardize products and services.” From
humanoid robots that can sing and dance to floor-cleaning machines and electronic pets, a variety of advanced
devices are now entering everyday households. These products, once limited to factories and laboratories, are now
helping to improve people’s daily lives.
“Robots are not cold machines in steel shells. We aim to make technology help,” said Xi E’e, head of brand
operations of an industrial innovation park in Chongqing. “These innovative products cover scenarios 6
household use, healthcare and outdoor activities, as the smart robots cater to diversifying consumer demands,” said
Xi.
According to data from the 2025 World Robot Conference, China 7 (remain) the world’s largest
industrial robot market for 12 consecutive years. Meanwhile,the output of service robots exceeded 10.5 million
units in 2024, marking a year-on-year increase of 34.3 percent. According to a Morgan Stanley report, China’s
robotics market 8 (project) to grow from $47 billion in 2024 to $108 billion by 2028, with service robots
achieving a compound annual growth rate of 25 percent.
“My daughter is very interested in this desktop pet robot, and we plan to get one for her”, said Li Qing, who
visited the expo with her six-year-old. The product is a kitten-like robot that 9 engage in conversation and

Tween bots are human-dependent cardboard robots that navigate the city with the help of pedestrians they
encounter. Rolling at a constant speed, in a straight line, Tween bots have a destination 1 (display) on a flag
and rely on passers-by they come across to read this flag and to aim them in the right direction to reach their goal.

6 charities didn’t use this strategy, Kershaw said, “nobody would look at their emails or social
media ads, and they wouldn’t be able to raise funds.”
Studies have suggested that images showing negative emotions attract significantly 7 (big)
donations than those with smiling faces. But there has been recent resistance to this long-existing practice. Critics
argue that it 8 reinforce harmful stereotypes and hurt its subjects.
Jon Dean, a sociology professor who studies images of homelessness, said that AI is a step in the right
direction in this case. It, however, doesn’t necessarily elevate Furniture Bank’s images above the pictures and the
people 9 have traditionally been used. While they’ve solved an ethical problem by not identifying
individuals, Dean pointed out, these images still put the focus on individual suffering, rather than the root causes of
that suffering.
Stowe Boyd, who researches technological evolution and the digital economy, said that we are getting used
to a world in which we have to question every image we see online. While plagiarism (抄袭) has always existed
in various forms, AI provides another way to “degrade the currency of authenticity” in photography and writing.
10 authenticity matters is a more complicated question. But a news reporter quoting a fictional straw man in
an article, or a charity pretending an AI image was real, would cross an ethical line, said Boyd.

Tween bots are human-dependent cardboard robots that navigate the city with the help of pedestrians they
encounter. Rolling at a constant speed, in a straight line, Tween bots have a destination 1 (display) on a
flag and rely on passers-by they come across to read this flag and to aim them in the right direction to reach their
goal.
I walked out to Washington Square Park on a sunny summer day, 2 (place) my first Tweenbot on
the sidewalk, and walked away. From a distance, I observed as the Tweenbot — a smiling 10-inch tall cardboard
missionary — bumped along towards its inevitable fate.
It was incredible.
3 a Tweenbot got caught under a park bench, ground futilely (徒劳地) against a curb, or became
trapped in a pothole (坑洼), some passer - by would always rescue it and send it toward its goal. Never once was a
Tween bot lost or damaged. Often, people 4 ignore the instructions to aim the Tween bot in the “right”
direction, if that direction meant 5 (send) the robot into a dangerous situation. One man turned the robot
back in the direction 6 which it had just come, saying out loud to the Tween bot, “You can’t go that way;
it’s toward the road.”
The Tween bot’s unexpected presence in the city created an unfolding narrative that speaks to the power of a
simple technological object to create a complex network powered by human intelligence and asynchronous (非同时
发生的) interactions. The journey 7 take becomes a story of people’s willingness 8 (engage)
with a creature that mirrors human characteristics of being easily harmed, of being lost, and of having intention
9 the means of achieving the goal alone. 10 each encounter with an empathetic pedestrian takes a
Tween bot one step closer to reaching its destination, the significance of our random discoveries and individual
actions builds up into a story about a vast space made small by an even smaller robot.

This Microchip (微芯片) Is an MVP
The newest soccer technology aims to make life easier for referees (裁判), but it might be a bit unsettling for
players. Imagine 1 (have) a tiny electronic chip under your skin, and that’s exactly what soccer
organizations around the world are testing with professional players. These small chips 2 (implant) just
under the skin, usually on the back of the shoulder, through a procedure that is nearly painless and done by a doctor.
During a soccer game, sensors placed around the field track the location of every player’s chip. There’s also
another chip inside the soccer ball. This setup allows a computer to analyze all this information in real-time. One
major benefit of this technology is that it can instantly tell 3 a player is offside. In soccer, an offensive
player isn’t allowed to position 4 behind all the other team’s defensive players and wait for a pass. This rule
is called the offside rule, and it can be really hard for referees to judge accurately. But 5 these microchips, a
computer can make the call with perfect precision every time.
These chips are designed 6 (stay) inside a player’s body harmlessly for several years. This means
players won’t have to worry about getting the chips 7 (replace) often. The introduction of this technology
promises to make soccer games fairer and more accurate. Referees will find their job easier with fewer mistakes in
making offside calls, 8 can often be controversial.
9 referees will definitely appreciate the help from this new technology, players might take some time
to get used to having chips under their skin. Despite this, the potential for more accurately judged games 10
(be) a big step forward for soccer. This technology could revolutionize the sport, making it fairer and more
enjoyable for players and fans alike.
