Grcery stre design is a carefully crafted art frm bth psychlgical and marketing standpints, accrding t Reeves Cnnelly, wh studied architectural design at the Prat Institute. He explained there is a specific reasn why fruit and vegetables are ften lcated at the frnt f the stre, “Yu'll grab the fruits and vegetables first and then hpefully feel less guilty abut buying junk fd later n. ” Meanwhile, essential items such as milk and eggs ar placed at the back f the stre t ensure custmers walk thrugh ther aisles with many unhealthy ptins like snacks and sdas, ptentially increasing the likelihd f impulse purchases.
There's als a reasn, why yu ften feel lst in lcal supermarkets. Shckingly, they mve things arund. Reves explained, “They are very much aware that these strategies becme less effective after yu visit the stre a few times and get a better sens f where everything is, s they'll regularly mve the prducts t different aisles t cnfuse yu. The practice is nt limited t a specific stre but is emplyed acrss varius retail chains. ”
“Their little tricks always wrk n me, ”ne regular shpper admits, "I walk in l get thre things and end up spending 8300;, that's why I hate grcery shpping, ”he said. On the ther hand, sme shppers are prud t declare they have never fallen int the trap. “That's why, I always keep a shpping list n me, "anther shpper shared. “I've started having my grceries delivered.

Artificial intelligence(AI)is shwing prmise in earthquake predictin, challenging the lng-held belief that it is impssible. Researchers at the University f Texas, Austin, have develped an AI algrithm(算法)that crrectly. predicted 70%f earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and prvided accurate strength calculatins fr the predicted earthquakes.
The research team believes their methd succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning apprach. The AI was prvided with a set f statistical features based n the team's knwledge f earthquake physics, and then instructed t train itself using a five-year database f earthquake recrdings. Once trained, the AI prvided its predictin by listening fr signs f incming earthquakes within the backgrund rumblings(隆隆声)in the Earth.
This wrk is clearly a milestne in research fr AI-driven earthquake predictin. “Yu dn't
see earthquakes cming, ”explains Alexandrs Savvaidis, a senir research scientist wh leads the Texas Seismlgical Netwrk Prgram (TexNet). “It's a matter f millisecnds, and the nly thing yu can cntrl is hw prepared yu are. Even with the 70%accuracy, that's a huge result and culd help minimize ecnmic and human lsses and has the ptential t remarkably imprve earthquake preparatin wrldwide. ”
While it is unknwn whether the same apprach will wrk at ther lcatins, the researchers
are cnfident that their AI algrithm culd prduce mre accurate predictins fused in areas with reliable earthquake tracking netwrks. The next step is t test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UT's Bureau TexNet has 300 earthquake statins and ver six years wrth f cntinuus recrds, making it an ideal lcatin fr these purpses.
Eventually, the authrs hpe t cmbine the system with physics-based mdels. This strategy
culd prve especially imprtant where data is pr r lacking. “That may be a lng way ff, but many advances such as this ne, taken tgether, are what mves science frward, ”cncludes Sctt Tinker, the bureau's directr.
32. Hw des the AI frecast earthquakes?
A. By identifying data frm the satellites.
B. By analyzing backgrund sunds in the Earth.
C. By mdeling databased n earthquake recrdings
D. By mnitring changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
33. What des Alexandrs Savvaidis intend t shw in paragraph 3?
A. The ways t reduce lsses in earthquakes.
B. The imprtance f preparing fr earthquakes.
C. The significance f develping the AI predictin.
D. The limitatin f AI algrithms in earthquake predictin.
34. What des the fllw-up research fcus n?
A. Cnducting tests in different lcatins.
B. Applying the AI apprach t ther fields.
C. Building mre earthquake statins in Texas.
D. Enlarging the database t train the calculatin accuracy.
4. Which wrds can best describe the earthquake-predicting technlgy?
A. Stable but utdated.B. Effective but cstly.
C. Ptential and ecnmical.D. Pineering and prmising.

The schl gymnasium was transfrmed int a hub(中心)f innvatin and excitement as students frm all grades gathered fr the annual science fair. Prjects lined the walls, each n a testament(证明)t the hard wrk and creativity f the students. Amng the exhibits wag a particularly impressive vlcan created by a grup f enthusiastic freshmen, and a sphisticated slar-pwered car designed by a team f senirs.
In the crner f the gymnasium, a slightly nervus but determined-lking girl named Mi std next t her prject. She had spent weeks preparing fr this event, wrking tirelessly n a device that culd cnvert(使转变)thermal energy frm the envirnment int electricity. Her inventin was a small, cmpact bx with a series f thermelectric cells(热电元件)and a small fan t let heat ut. Mei had named it “Ec-Pwer, ”and she hped it wuld impress the judges and her peers.
As the first grup f students apprached her table, Mei tk a deep breath and began t explain the wrkings f her inventin. She was prud f her wrk, but the pressure f the science fair was starting t get t her. Her hands trembled slightly as she demnstrated hw the device culd pwer a small LED light using the heat frm a warm cup f water.
The crwd arund Mei's prject grew, and she culd feel the weight f their expectatins. She nticed a few students whispering and pinting at her device, and she culdn't tell if they were impressed r skeptical.
