Dear Ms. Akella:
I was interested to read about your company in the online issue of "Technology Today." Perhaps your company's technology can help us.
I own a candy company in Tennessee. We (141) a variety of kinds of candy which are sold all over the USA and in other countries as well. As part of their work, my employees use heavy equipment and move large boxes every day. Sometimes they fall or hurt their backs. As a result, they (142) days of work. Everyone suffers from this situation.
These accidents cost my company a lot of money, and my employees suffer from health problems.
Rapid Technology's "cobots" may help. I understand that a "cobot" is like a robot. However, it is a robot that collaborates-or works with-people. So, you call it a "cobot." Is that correct? I understand that people are (143) when they work with cobots. However, the article I read only discussed cobots at car companies. Could they also be used at a candy company?
We are very interested in cobots, but we are not sure if they would work here. What do you think? Please reply via mail. Thank you.
Best wishes,

M: It means I'm out of a job.
W: That's bad news. This has happened to you before, hasn't it?
M: Yes. This will be the third time in five years and I'm ready to stop.
W: What do you mean? You're going to quit working?
M: No, I'll still be working, but not for a company. I'm going to be my own boss.
W: Doesn't that make you a little nervous? You won't have all the benefits that go with working for a company—no retirement, no health insurance.
M: That is the bad part of it, but I am really tired of being dependent on the whims of big business. It seems that it hasn't been all that secure for me.
W: What will you do?
M: I've had a couple of friends who have gone out on their own. They say it is the best thing that ever happened to them.
W: I know it is the secret dream of a lot of people to be their own boss, especially the younger generation.
M: One of my friends just takes temporary jobs. Companies are looking for people with his skills, but only on a temporary basis. So he goes from one company to another, depending on where they need him. He's able to set his own working hours and he makes a lot more than he was when he was working full time. He really likes the freedom he enjoys.
W: What does he do when he doesn't have any jobs coming in?
M: He goes to a temporary employment agency. It seems he always finds work and at double what he used to make.
W: I hope you find just the right thing for your skills. It would be nice to have a job that gave you more freedom.
M: That's why I'm making the change. I want to be able to spend the extra time with my family and it will be great to be working out of my home instead of going to the office every day.
W: Good luck! With your attitude and ability, I'm sure you'll do well.

Middle Age: A Low Point for Most
People around the globe hit the height of their misery and depression in middle 51_________ ., a new international study suggests. The finding by British and American researchers was based on an analysis of well-being among approximately 52_________ million people in 80 nations. With few exceptions,the observation appears to apply across the board, regardless 2 gender (性别) , culture,geography, wealth, job history, education, and marriage or parental status.
"The scientific fact seems to be that happiness and positive mental health follow a giant "U" 53_________ through life," said study author Andrew J. Oswald, a professor of economics at Warwick University in Warwickshire, England. "For the average person, it"s high when you"re 20, and then it slowly 54_________ and bottoms out in your 40s. But the good news is that your 55_________ health picks up again, and eventually gets back to the high levels of your youth."
The finding was 56_________ on the pooling of several different sources of happiness data,including: two multi-decade happiness/satisfaction surveys (first launched in the 1970s), involving about 500,000 American and Western European men and women; four rounds of the 80-nation "World Values Survey" 57_________ between 1981 and 2004 in North America, Eastern and WesternEurope, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Central and South America; and a 2004-2007 survey 58_________ nearly 1 million Britons.
The bottom-line: For most people throughout the world, the highest probability for 59_________ striking is around 44 years of age.
In the United States, however, some as-yet unexplained 60_________ differences were observed, with happiness among men dipping the most in their early 50s, whereas women hit their nadir (最低点 ) around the age of 40.
The researchers cautioned that cheerful people tend to live longer than unhappy. 61_________ – a fact that might have skewed (使偏斜) the overall finding. But they also suggested that evidence of a happiness 62_________ might simply reflect a midlife choice to give up long-held but no longer tenable (守得住的) aspiration (志向), followed by a senior"s sense of gratitude for having successfully endured 63_________ others did not.
"That said, some might find it helpful simply to understand the general 64_________ of mental health as they go through their own life," said Oswald. "It might be useful for people to realize that if they are 65_________ in their 40s this is normal. It is not exceptional. And just knowing this might help".

Millions of people are usingcell phones today. In many places it is actually considered unusual not to useone. In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. Theyfind that the phones are more than a means of communication-having a mobilephone shows that they are cool and connected.
The explosions around theworld in mobile phone use make some health professionals worried. Some doctorsare concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems fromthe use of mobile phones. InEngland.there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies areworried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is noproof that mobile phones are bad for your health.
On the other hand, why dosome medical studies show changes in the brain cells of some people who usemobile phones? Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can bedetected with modern scanning(扫描) equipment. In one case, atraveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memoryloss.He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name ofhis own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours aday,every day of his working week,for a couple of years. His family doctorblamed his mobile phone use,but his employer's doctor didn't agree.
What is it that makes mobilephones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech ma- chines candetect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phonecompanies agree that there is some radiation,but they say the amount is toosmall to worry about.

A.they're popular

听力原文: New research from Australia shows that pets are good for your health. The findings of this new study suggest that people who have pets are at less risk from heart disease than those who do not.
The new research was carried out over three years and examined 3,000 people. They took tests that measured a variety of different factors known to be involved in heart disease--blood pressure and blood levels. Also, people were asked about their lifestyles. The 800 people who owned pets had low levels on each of the factors measured than those who did not own pets. The study 'also showed that it did not matter what kind of pet was owned--a cat was as good as a dog— so the benefits could not be attributed to the exercises involved in walking a dog.
The question is just how pets manage to make their owners more healthy. The obvious answer is that they make their owners feel more relaxed and happy. The Australian scientists who organized this study commented that if a new drug was available that was as effective as simply having a pet, then this drug would undoubtedly be considered a breakthrough in the control of heart disease.
