As a brief antidote to all this horror why don’t we take a moment to enjoy the fact that today’s the day that ’s French, Death Metal comedy, , opens in its home country today. Did summer just a little lighter?
Synopsis: Each summer since their adolescence, The Dead MaKabés head out on what they pretentiously call a "summer tour" - a few bottom end concerts in festivals in the depths of Europe. But for these four friends, the crisis of the thirties and weeks of smouldering resentment this may well be the last. It’s difficult to remain faithful to your ideals when you are a member of a group of satanic rock band.

Robot SnakeTintanoboa was a real snake, a prehistoric serpent of biblical proportions—it was over 50 feet long and some of them could weigh over a ton. Thankfully he's long extinct, but to demonstrate the scale and scariness of the beast, artist group eatArt from Vancouver are .Yes, it really is that big—and eventually destined to have a saddle for a brave rider. Now, I'm stumped as to what's scarier: That a 50-foot snake once existed, or it only costs about $10,000 for amateur roboticists to put together a huge hydraulic robotic replica. Nobody show this to DARPA.Robot OstrichMIT and DARPA
on buiding a robotic ostrich. Before you laugh too hard, imagining this bot sticking its metal head in the sand in scary conflict situations, remember one odd fact about the real flesh and blood ostrich: At top speed it can sprint across uneven ground at 60 miles an hour—freeway speed. It's the fastest land bird. So a robotic runner could have numerous applications in military situations, accessing tricky locations where flying drones couldn't reach with a load of ammunition or medical gear (much more swiflty than BigDog).FastRunner will have a top speed of over 20 miles an hour, and it's packed with innovations—including a very novel leg structure that needs fewer actuators than you may think.Robot SailorsLiquid Robotics' Wave Glider sailing robots have been around for a while, including helping efforts to track the 2010 Gulf oil spill. But this week four of the diminutive auto-sailors
on what's hoped will be a Guinness World Record-breaking journey: From San Francisco across the Pacific to Australia and Japan without fuel, which may be the longest journey by a robot across the face of our planet.It's no empty act, though, as the Wave Gliders are tricked out with sensors that should deliver some unique data to oceanographers and climate scientists the world over.Robot ActorAs the guys at Plastic Pals , sometimes it's already tricky to tell the difference between a fake humanoid robot and a real one because technology has advanced so far, so fast recently.The reasons behind the creation of a new robot called ROBO-G, introduced at the recent IREX 2011
in Japan, are tied to the similarities between man and machine: ROBO-G is a character from an upcoming comedy movie where engineers fake a humanoid robot, by dressing an old guy in a suit, to impress their boss and customers.Robot Graffiti ArtistHey, if robots are taking over making our cars and , shouldn't they be allowed to
too?&So Kanno and Takahiro Yamaguchi have made the Senseless Drawing robot that acts on its random programming to produce artworks of many-colored graffiti. More artful than many a human-created tag I've spotted...Robot GardenerFans of the movie will love this (and if you haven't seen that classic, please do): Robot gardeners, designed to do the otherwise back-breaking task of shifting heavy plant pots around in garderning stores, have been built by startup .They're in beta test in numerous nurseries across the U.S., and they're pretty simple—they're designed to do one task well, which is to move planter pots from one location to another in a regular grid pattern, grasping each one with a simple but powerful gripper and working out where it is right now, and where it has to go with a bunch of sensors. As a result they're not overly expensive (between $25,000 and $50,000—which sounds expensive until you realize they can easily replace a couple of laborers' wages).Robot Human PuppetRobots and humans working in collaboration sounds ideal right? A different scenario to many a scary movie. Scientists at French robotics lab LIRMM have taken this idea to what may be one of
recently, and have designed a robot that can control the movements of a human arm by firing electrodes to stimulate the person's muscles.Not as freaky as it seems, the goal is to help people recuperate after injuries or surgery—possibly even paralysis—and the robot-human collaboration could be a powerful trick to faster recovery that also frees up expensive nursing and physiotherapy staff to help more people. &Robot DancerEveryone who's a fan of robots knows about , the deceptively complex research and educational robot who can bust some fabulous moves when he hears a funky tune.

1、A 这是There be 句型的习惯用法：There is no knowing..."没法知道……"还有：There is no telling..."没法说……"2、A 因为play computer自成词组,不是特指在玩某一部计算机.3、有.这里please是形容词,意思是满意的、愿意的4、这里captain是泛指指令长职务,不是指某个指令长,所以可不加冠词.其他职务也是如此.5、wirte拼写错了吧.应该是write.这道题的中国老师标准答案是A,但是选B也对.实际上我更倾向于选B,google一下也会发现,网上用B句型的数量要远远超过A句型.当然,两个句型的意思是有差别的,具体使用哪一个要看说话者要表达的意思是什么.
1·A，there＋be＋not(any)(或+no)+主语2·选B，play the computer就类似于play the pinao一样，这样排除A就行,如果是球类，棋类游戏前就不用加the.3·be pleased to do，乐意做某事4·专有名词带有限制组成描绘性定语时，可以加定冠词5·B,这句话是说即使那时没什么好说的我们多多少少都写了点，w...
