Ping Pong Door

Do you want a ping-pong table in your room? But you may not have enough space. Now this door is here to help you. It can turn into a ping-pong table when you pull it down. After the ping-pong game is over, it goes back to being a common door. It was designed by Tobias Fr?nzel from Germany. Cool idea!

Dog Watch

The dog watch is a “clock for keeping time at a rate(比率) other than human time” and was invented in 1991. With this watch, you can know time at your animal’s rate instead of your own. The watch multiplies(乘)every human time by seven, giving us “doggy time”. If a dog lives to be the age of 14, that translates into 98 human years!

Earthquake House

Big earthquakes can hit a house, possibly making the people in it get hurt. But Dysinger has found a way, the Earthquake House!

His idea is simple. Build a round house that has earthquake sensors(传感器) in it. If the sensors know the big earthquake, the house is free from its chains(链条). Don’t worry. You always remain straight in it.

Smell This

How do you know if your breath smells nice, or if it smells bad? It’s difficult to know because it’s very hard to smell the air that comes out of your own mouth. Smell This is useful for this situation. You just place the mask on your face, then breathe out through your mouth and breathe in through your nose.

Portia gave the decision. “One pound of the merchant’s (商人) flesh (肉) is yours. It is what the contract (合同) says. You may take his flesh!”

Shylock held his knife and told Antonio to get ready. “Wait!” exclaimed Portia. “You will not do anything that is not written in the contract. Is that right, Shylock?”

“Yes, that’s right,” said Shylock. He wondered what the wise young judge was going to say. “Well,” said the young judge, “I have read the contract carefully, and it does not say anything about taking his blood. It says ‘a pound of flesh’. You can take your pound of flesh, but you may not take one drop of his blood. If you take any of his blood, the duke (公爵) will take everything you own!”

Now it was Graziano’s turn to bless the judge and call him wise.

“You wanted justice (公平),” Portia told Shylock, “and you’ll have more justice than you wanted.”

Shylock didn’t want to give everything he owned to the duke. He decided not to take his pound of flesh. He said he would take the money.

“Give me ninety thousand dollars,” he said, “and I will have pity on Antonio and let him go.”

Bassanio was happy to give him the money. He was very pleased that his friend Antonio would not die.

“Wait!” Portia said again. “He does not want the money. It is not written in the contract.”

Shylock said he just wanted to have his money back and wouldn’t even need interest. Bassanio was ready to give it to him, but again Portia stopped him.

“He said he only wanted the thing written in the contract.”

Shylock understood that he would not get his pound of flesh. He understood that he would not get his money. He decided to go home.

“Wait!” said Portia, for the third time. “The law of Venice, says that if you plan to kill a citizen of Venice, you will lose everything that you own. Half of what you have will belong to the person you tried to kill, and the other half will belong to the duke.”
