25、 built-in camera,and a smart material triggered(触发)by some software. Facial recognition technology captures the face and instructs the surface of the mirror to change when a smile is detected.

Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers con
34、cluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full.

They enjoy food and therefore s
35、pend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out

The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.After a visit to the U
