The AI(人工智能) has changed our lives. There are four useful AI inventions here.
In many science fiction(科幻) movies, men travel to faraway stars and even fight with aliens. But are there real aliens in the universe(宇宙)? The answer of some scientists is yes. So they have been searching for aliens in outer space for many years. They hope to find life signs of aliens.
Some scientists are used to using radio telescopes to search for aliens in space. In order to find aliens,they have worked hard for over half a century, but so far they have found nothing. Then some scientists guessed aliens might not want to connect us, but alien s could answer our messages. So some scientists sent radio signals into the universe. They hope one day they would be picked up by alien technology. These scientists want to prove that we are not alone in the universe.
But what should we do if the"alien phone" rings one day? Should we answer it? Stephen Hawking,the famous physicist, thought it could be dangerous to connect aliens. He said that the main purpose of aliens' visiting to our solar system could be searching for our resources. But other scientists think we have no need to worry. David Morrison, a NASA scientist, said,"If an alien radio signal reaches the earth from a planet thousands of light-years away, then they almost surely have solved all the problems we still have including the short of resources. Maybe they are much smarter than us, but why don't they hurt us? I think we can try to connect them."

Several young Englishmen told me their interesting experiences. They are volunteer teachers. They said it was impossible for them understand all the local people there.
Mike taught in a small village in Guangxi, China. a hot afternoon, he went into a store and asked,"Do you have cold drinks?"The saleswoman said nothing. She just smiled and nodded. Mike asked her again. Still, the said nothing. When he had a conversation with his students about this experience later, his students said the saleswoman had answered him for certain: She smiled and ,which meant"YES".
Jack remembered his experience in Bulgaria, an European country. One day, he went to a restaurant that was for beef. He asked the waiter,"Do you have beef?"The waiter nodded. Jack waited quietly for a while. the waiter didn't bring beef. Later, he learned that nodding meant"NO"there.
Tom had a similar experience in India. Tom asked his students to agree disagree with his opinion. They nodded. Tom thought they with him. Later, he knew nodding meant "DISAGREE"there.
Elias Howe is always used to going to bed at 4 o'clock in the morning. Working all night became his living habit. Who's Elias Howe? You may never hear of him. He was born in America. The sewing(缝纫)machine was invented by him.
Over 100 years ago, without modern machines, people had to do the sewing by hand. Elias decided to design a machine to do the sewing instead of our hands. However, he had a trouble. He couldn't get the thread(线) to run around the needle(针). Inventing sewing machine was his dream. So he did not give up.He kept thinking about how to solve this problem.
Once he was tired, he slept in bed. He had a dream. In the dream he was caught by a king. The king ordered him to build a perfect sewing machine, or the king would kill him. Elias met the same problem as before. The king was so angry that he ordered his soldiers to kill him. The soldiers raised spears(长矛) and came up to him. Suddenly Elias noticed something. There was a hole in the tip(尖端) of each spear.
Before the spears stuck to his body, Elias woke up from the dream. And he realized that he found the answer to the problem. Instead of getting the thread to run around the needle, he made it run through a small hole in the tip of the needle. A simple thought finally made Elias invent the first sewing machine.
