A rich man began to learn painting when he was sixty years old, and he{#blank#}1{#/blank#} it very much. He painted and painted. After twenty years, there were {#blank#}2{#/blank#} of pictures in his workroom, and he thought they were very good.
One day, the old man was seriously ill in bed, but he didn't {#blank#}3{#/blank#} his pictures. He said to his grandson, Alan, “I want to give my pictures to a school, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the students will remember me. But which school do you think is the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} , my child?”
“Well,” said the little boy. “You'd better give them to a school for the blind!”

    Years ago, I lived in a house in a large city.  The house next door was only a few meters away from {#blank#}1{#/blank#} .  Through the window, I could often see a woman who I {#blank#}2{#/blank#} never met doing some reading in the house every afternoon.
    Several months went by, I began to notice that her window was dirty.  Everything was not very clear {#blank#}3{#/blank#}  the dirty window.  I wondered {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  the woman didn't wash her window, it really looked terrible.
    One bright morning, I decided to clean my house, {#blank#}5{#/blank#}  washing the window inside.   Late in the afternoon when 1 finished all the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest.  How surprising! I found that the{#blank#}6{#/blank#}  window was actually so clean that she could be {#blank#}7{#/blank#} clearly sitting by the window. That was quite an important lesson for me.  How often had I looked at  {#blank#}8{#/blank#}    through my own shortcomings  (缺点) !
    Since then, I have been used to {#blank#}9{#/blank#}  myself whether I am looking through my own dirty window.  Before I want to judge someone, I always think more than before and try to clean the dirty window so that I may see the world around me more {#blank#}10{#/blank#}  .

    We love robot dogs, but do real dogs like robot people? It {#blank#}1{#/blank#} that they do-if the robot does human things {#blank#}2{#/blank#} talk and move.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} have found that dogs react（做出反应） socially to robots when the robots do things socially towards them. Looks（外貌） don't seem to be {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Even though a robot {#blank#}5{#/blank#} nothing like a human and doesn't have a smell, it can catch a dog's {#blank#}6{#/blank#}if it sounds like a human. Scientists discovered this by {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the way dogs reacted to two different robots: one called them by name, and one just made beeping sounds（哗哗声）. The dogs were more likely to react to the talking robot, find the food it {#blank#}8{#/blank#}, and follow its orders. They {#blank#}9{#/blank#}more time near the robot or looking at its head when the robot did things socially.

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#}the dogs probably didn't mistake the robot for a person, they might still help scientists make a more human robot.
