    Did you spend much time lying on the comfortable sofa at home during the summer vacation? How often did you do sports this summer? People across the world need to get moving, according to a new study by the World Health Organization (世界卫生组织).

    5% of adults do not get enough exercise, according to the study. This number hasn't changed from 2001. Because of this, about 1.4 billion people are close to deadly diseases (疾病) such as heart disease and cancer (癌症).

    People should do at least 2 and a half hours of "moderate intensity (中等强度)" exercise each week, such as dancing or swimming. They can also do 75 minutes of "vigorous intensity (高强度)" exercise, such as running or playing soccer, according to the WHO.

    As for how to exercise more, experts says that we don't have to go to the gym (健身房) every time For example, we can go up and down stairs (楼梯) a lot instead of taking the lift. If we can't go to a dancing class each week, standing on one leg for 30 seconds a day is very good too.

You may have a house robot that can do housework for you. But is it so smart?Met Laura,a robot in the National Library in Madrid. Spain,copying out the old books and writings in its collection. See Aurora,a headless dog-sized robot used to keep birds and other animals away at an Alaskan airport. Watch another 1. 8 meter-tall legless robot called EveR6,waving its arms to guide musicians through a performance. 

Those robots above require artificial intelligence(AD)(人工智能). AI is a computer system(系统)that can understand languages,make decisions and solve problems. AI can be taught skills using a process called machine learning. Humans give AI information such as books,photos or videos to train it. The more information it studies, the better it can do its job. 

_________ For example, when you watch TV,Al is watching you. It'll know what your favorite is and suggest similar ones. In hospitals,AI is very good at suggesting treatments and can even invent new medicines. To cut down food waste,some schools introduce online systems for the students to choose meals ahead of time. In cities, AI is used to watch out for cars that make black smoke. It works together with the police and transportation teams to stop them and keep the air clean. Al can help us fight climate(气候)change by finding clever ways to reduce energy use. 

Some people worry that AI will take away a large number of jobs and also fear that AI could develop out of our control and bring danger to humans. However,AI is expected to be a more powerful production tool that will help humans achieve more in less time. It is believed that the flying car will be made to offer an easier way out of the morning traffic jam(交通堵塞). Humans imagine AI might even use a way to solve the problems of our energy needs completely. Anyway,there is still long journey for humans and AI.
