On May 1, there were constant traffic jams on highways leading out of the several metropolises, the longest, according to reports, was 55 kilometers. Some blame
18、the jams on the two-year-old policy that allows cars with no more than seven seats to use the highways for free on public holidays, but a Beijing News editorial said this is not the real cause of the jams. The growing automobile culture is doubtlessly among the causes. Data shows that Chinas product
19、ion and sales of automobiles both went up by 20 million in 2013. But over the same period there has been no breakthrough in highway construction, and when there are too many birds the nest will naturally become crowded. Growing tourism also leads to the jams. At the 2014 global summit of the World T
20、ravel and Tourism Council, which ended last week, it was reported that Chinese people spent almost 3 trillion yuan on tourism in 2013, which took up more than 90 percent of hotel income and more than 80 percent of air and railway use. Worse, Chinese have to travel during the same periods. As employe

People make use of public holidays to enjoy themselves. C Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to becom
27、e a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo. While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companion

It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos. Social
