19、birth of the modern Mothers Day came about when in 1870 Julia Ward Howe published a poem, coming up with the idea of an international Mothers Day celebrating peace and motherhood.

25、chnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a persons thoughts.In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Ou

26、r brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move.
