25、Don’t be surprised if you see a car going down the road without a driver in Beijing these days.In March, 2018, baidu was given a license to test its self-driving cars in Beijing, China Daily reported.

But self-driving cars have their own disadvantages as well. In one test, researchers pointed a laser pointer（激光棒） at the car’s sensors（感应器） while it was moving. The car mistakenly thought that the laser beam（波束） was in its way and slowed down or changed directions.

The software(软件) that is used to direct the cars may not be safe enough. Reported Live science. Sometimes, without any reasons,it may break down when we use our computers or smartphones. If the software in a self-driving car happened to crash. The results could be deadly.Maybe improvements to the software could solve this problem.

26、Eat like a king in the morning, a prince at noon, and a farmer at night. This saying is all about the importance of breakfast. And now scientists can tell us just why it’s so important. According to a study carried out at Imperial College London, UK, skipping the first meal of the day not only means you eat more at lunch, but also that your brain wants to find more unhealthy foods.

The study suggests that there is a special part of our brain called the orbitofrontal cortex (眶额皮层), which plays an important part in making choices about what we eat. It is used for identifying the taste of food, especially when skipping breakfast. It is more likely to target high-calorie foods when you’re on an empty stomach.

Scientists did an experiment on this. Dr Tony Goldstone from Imperial College London, scanned (扫描) the brains of 21 men and women, around the age of 25. On the first day, these people skipped breakfast before the scans. On the second day, they had cereal (谷物), bread and jam as breakfast. After the scan on both days, they had their lunch.

When the volunteers had skipped breakfast, they ate around 20 percent more at lunch, compared with days when they had eaten breakfast. Their brain scans also showed the orbitofrontal cortex was especially responsive to high-calorie foods. “We believe that it identifies the value of foods – how pleasant, how delicious something is,” Goldstone told The Guardian.
