He ______________________________(情不自禁的皱起眉头)when he realized the problem was difficult for such a young child.(frown)

I ran into a stranger as he passed by. “I’m so sorry!” was my reply. Then he said, “Excuse me too… I wasn’t1watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went2our way after saying goodbye.
But at3, a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later in the kitchen, as I4the meal, my daughter walked up to me, very still. When I turned, I5knocked her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown (皱眉). She stepped away silently, with her little heart6. I didn’t realize how rudely I had spoken.
That night, when I lay7in bed, God’s quiet voice spoke to me and said, “While8with a stranger, you are calm and polite, but with those you love, you are QUICK to excite… Go look around on the kitchen floor, you’11 find some flowers there by the9. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She10them herself — pink, yellow, and your favorite blue. She stood there quietly and you never saw the11in her eyes.”
By this time, I felt sad and small and now my own tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt (跪) by her12. “Wake up, my,” I said. “Are these the flowers you picked up for me?” She smiled, “I found them out by the tree, I13them in a napkin(纸巾), just for you. I knew you’d like them, especially the14.” I said, “I am so sorry that I missed them today… And I15have fussed (大惊小怪) at you that way…”
And she whispered, “Mommy, that’s OK… I still love you16.” I hugged her and said, “I love you, too and I LOVE the flowers.”
Do you know that: if you die tomorrow, the17you are working for could easily replace you in a matter of days. But the family you leave18will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into our19than into our families--- an unwise investment (投资) indeed.

Increasingly over the last few years, we have become familiar with the range of small electronic devices or  “smart” accessories （附件,饰品 ）．Pocket heart -rate monitors for joggers and electronic maps are just the first examples of many new products that promise to change our lives in all sorts of surprising ways．

       As a scientist at New York University．Rosalind Picard tries out different smart accessories before they go on the market．One of these was the so-called " frown （皱眉）headband"．Rosalind was shocked to realize just how often she frowned．Stuck in a traffic jam recently, Rosalind kept hearing the sounds of the tiny sensor inside the band worn around her forehead -each time she frowned in annoyance, the sensor gave out a signal．

       Another computer scientist , Stevcn Feiner, is working on a pair of glasses that will do more than help you to see ．Imagine you want to try a restaurant in a foreign city but you're not familiar with the dishes on the menu． If you are wearing a pair of Steven's glasses ．all you have to do is glance above the restaurant’s doorway and your glasses will immediately become windows to the Internet, offering you full details of the meals served inside．The glasses could also be used to help people make speeches, give chefs access to the latest recipes and even provide doctors with

patient information while they carry out operations．

       At the moment, Steven's invention looks more like a large ski mask than a pair of glasses．

       It's a headset connected to a hand-held computer and a Global Positioning  System  （ GPS ） receiver, which tracks the wearer's position．But he says that these head-worn displays will eventually get smaller and lighter as technology improves．

       And, of course, this new technology has a fashionable as well as a useful application．A chemical engineer named Roben Langer has invented a new microchip that, if put inside a ring, can give off different smells according to a person's mood．That, of course, may or may not appeal to you．And, in the end , it is  shoppers ．not scientists , who will determine which of these smart accessories will succeed as fashionable items and which are sure to join history's long list of crazy inventions．

       It is clear, however ,that as computers get smaller and cheaper．Lhcy will pop up in all sorts of easily-wearable accessories ．even in the buttons on your coat．What’s marc, this is something that's going to happen a lot sooner than we all expect．
