11、r the word “Palace”，you may picture the same kind of building for both：large, made of stones, probably with a tower. And, of course, youre not entirely wrong, as those are features of both palaces and castles.So then hay bother to visit one royal building in the United Kingdom Buckingham Palace and
12、another the same country Windsor Castle? It turns out there is a difference，and you can find it pretty plainly in these two popular buildings.The Case for CastlesCastles were residences for royalty. But they were also intend as defensive seats. Say youre a king who has taken a particular area over.
13、Now you have to hold it, castle and staff it with soldiers to defend your conquered territory and ensure it remains part of your kingdom.Castles were built throughout Europe and the Middle East primarily for protection of the king and his people. Some common features of castles include：thick walls a

Palaces were where the spoils(战利品) of war might be displayed, along with grand architecture, massive banquet halls, golden table settings and maybe even hundreds of luxuriously decorated rooms.While kings certainly took up residence in palace
16、s as well as castles, nonmilitary royals might also have lived in (or still live in) palaces. Ministers could live in castles to show the power of their riches rather than their nonexistent military power.

19、, “You should explore your own country before stepping out into the world.” However, it seems like a tough mission to travel all across its expansive surfaces. But luckily for me, Via Rail Canada offered youths between the ages of 18 and 25 the chance to ride the train across Canada for the month of
20、 July. The ticket was a bargain $150. My best friends Trevor, Joel and Jeremy and I immediately jumped at the opportunity and secured four tickets on the great Canadian railroad. For a group of 20-year-olds, this was like the first flight of young birds from the nest. When we approached the train st
21、ation in the morning, our 22-day adventure from Sudbury to Vancouver was to begin. Eyes baggy from lack of sleep, we jumped on board as if it was the train to Hogwarts in Harry Potter. Although the thought of three full days on those tracks covering close to 3, 000 kilometres crushed our spirits a l
22、ittle, what happened next caught us by surprise. The three days on board turned into a summer camp on rails. At night, we would climb up the glass-domed train car, which gave us a scenic view of the starry night sky, untouched by the harmful light pollution. Before we knew it, the warm sun rays beat
23、ing down on our faces woke us up for another day on the rails. To my surprise, a sea of golden grain fields dominated the landscape we were in the Canadian Prairies. Another day slipped away and we set up for another night in the dome. And this time we were greeted by night sky painted by a fantasti
24、c thunderstorm. Lightning was striking at an incredible rate. The spectacular and memorable light show left everyone in the glass bubble in complete disbelief. Arriving in the Rocky Mountains was one of the most surrealistic(超现实的) experiences of my life. Before the train adventure, if I could have s

30、British Columbia. Within a few hours, an aggressive chicken attacked the two, killing Dudleys brother and leaving him with a disability!While Dudley could swim with his single leg, he had a hard time walking on the firm ground.

31、 consult Terence Loring, the founder of a design firm that among other things also offers 3D printing designs.Given that he had just launched 3 pillar designs, Terence somewhat hesitated to take on a duckling as his first client(客户). But as soon as he saw brave little Dudley walking around on one le
32、g, Terence knew he had to do something. Using his biomedical engineering training, Terence spent the next few weeks creating a 3D template(模板), after he found out how ducks legs work in YouTube videos about ducks. Once ready, he sent them to Ontario-based 3D engineering firm Proto3000, who agreed to
33、 print the leg.The second artificial leg was much stronger than the first one. When the artificial leg that is printed from strong ABS, a thermoplastic(热塑性塑料) that becomes soft and moldable when heated and attached to a foot designed from soft and flexible robber-like plastic, was fitted to Dudley,
34、his whole manner changed. He wagged his tail and showed it off to his best frienda pig called Elsie.Of course, as Dudley has been growing, the leg and foot have had to be replaced. But that hasnt bothered Terence who continues to improve the design. The best part is that Terence has put all the desi

The computer was able to correctly identify which music one of the participants was dancing to 94 percent of the time, regardless of what kind of music was playing, based on the pattern of a persons dance style. It was the movement
43、 of participants heads, shoulders and knees that were important markers in distinguishing between individual. “It seems as though a persons dance movements a kind of fingerprint. Each person has a unique movement signature that stays the same no matter what kind of music is playing,” said Pasi Saari
44、, a co-author of the study, in a class.Its possible that dance-recognition software could become something similar to face-recognition software but it doesnt seem as practical. For now, researchers say that they are not as interested in possible surveillance (监视) uses of this technology, but rather

So dont worry about being identified at nightclub by an AI via your signature dance moves yet.32What did the researchers expect to do with the ML machine?ATest the dancers flexibility.BMake dancers accustomed to the beat.CIdentify
