8、练第二层.阅读理解AGoogles new camera, called Clips, is a small, smart device. It comes with a case that has a clip (夹子), but its not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.This rough

10、capture scenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. “Once it learns that theres a face you see frequently, itll try to get nice photos of those faces，” said Juston Payne, the devices product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it to know wh
11、at happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shootlike when a childs hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.Were people conc
12、erned it could seem strange? Yes, Payne admitted. But they said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that it is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.“This product is only possible because of th

For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well.Then their goo
