Last year our team went to Seattle, Washington in the USA. We won second place. Personally, I think the team that won first place cheated. They had developed a new type of program just before the competition. So we need to encourage our programmer to improve our intelligence too. We are determined to create an even better system. In a way our programmer is like our coach. She programs us with all the possible moves she has seen while watching human games. Then she prepares reliable moves to use if a new situation arises. In this way I can make up new moves using 「my artificial intelligence」. I would really like to play against a human team, for I have been programmed to act just like them. After all, with the help of my electronic brain which never forgets anything, using my intelligence is what I』m all about!

Daisy had always longed to help endangered species of wildlife. One day she woke up and found a flying carpet by her bed. "Where do you want to go?" it asked. Daisy responded immediately. "I'd like to see some endangered wildlife," she said. " Please take me to a distant land where I can find the animal that gave fur to make this sweater. " At once the carpet flew away and took her to Tibet. There Daisy saw an antelope looking sad. It said, "We' re being killed for the wool beneath our stomachs. Our fur is being used to make sweaters for people like you. As a result, we are now an endangered species. " At that Daisy cried, "I'm sorry I didn' t know that. I wonder what is being done to help you. Flying carpet, please show me a place where there' s some wildlife protection. "
The flying carpet travelled so fast that next minute they were in Zimbabwe. Daisy turned around and found that she was being watched by an elephant. "Have you come to take my photo?"it asked.In relief Daisy burst into laughter. " Don' t laugh," said the elephant," We used to be an endangered species. Farmers hunted us without mercy. They said we destroyed their farms, and money from tourists only went to the large tour companies. " So the government decided to help. They allowed tourists to hunt only a certain number of animals if they paid the farmers. Now the farmers are happy and our numbers are increasing. So good things are being done here to save local wildlife".
Daisy smiled. " That' s good news. It shows the importance of wildlife protection, but I' d like to help as the WWF suggests. " The carpet rose again and almost at once they were in a thick rainforest. A monkey watched them as it rubbed it self. " What are you doing?" asked Daisy. "I'm protecting myself from mosquitoes," it replied. "When I find a millipede insect, I rub it over my body. It contains a powerful drug which affects mosquitoes. You should pay more attention to the rainforest where I live and appreciate how the animals live together. No rainforest, no animals, no drugs. "
Daisy was amazed. "Flying carpet, please take me home so I can tell WWF and we can begin procing this new drug. Monkey, please come and help. " The monkey agreed. The carpet flew home. As they landed, things began to disappear. Two minutes later everything had gone - the monkey, too. So Daisy was not able to make her new drug. But what an experience! She had learned so much! And there was always WWF...

課文標題是In search of the amber room 【原文】
Frederick William I, the King of Prussia, could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history. This gift was the Amber Room, which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it. The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown colour like honey. The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days. It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels, which took the country' s best artists about ten years to make.
In fact, the room was not made to be a gift. It was designed for the palace of Frederick I. However, the next King of Prussia, Frederick William I, to whom the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it. In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great. In return, the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers. So the Amber Room became part of the Czar' s winter palace in St Petersburg. About four metres long, the room served as a small reception hall for important visitors.
Later, Catherine Ⅱhad the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers. She told her artists to add more details to it. In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted. Almost six hundred candles lit the room, and its mirrors and pictures shone like gold. Sadly, although the Amber Room was considered one of the wonders of the world,it is now missing.
In September 1941 , the Nazi army was near St Petersburg. This was a time when the two countries were at war. Before the Nazis could get to the summer palace, the Russians were able to remove some furniture and small art objects from the Amber Room. However, some of the Nazis secretly stole the room itself. In less than two days 100,000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven wooden boxes. There is no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for Konigsberg, which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea. After that,what happened to the Amber Room remain a mystery.
Recently, the Russians and Germans have built a new Amber Room at the summer palace. By studying old photos of the former Amber Room, they have made the new one look like the old one. In 2003 it was ready for the people of St Petersburg when they celebrated the 300th birthday of their city.

尋找琥珀屋
普魯士國王威廉一世決不可能想到他送給俄羅斯人民的厚禮會有這樣一段令人驚訝的歷史。這件禮物就是琥珀屋,它之所以有這個名字,是因為造這間房子用了好幾噸的琥珀。選出來的琥珀色彩艷麗,呈現蜂蜜一樣的黃褐色。琥珀屋的設計採用了當時流行的別致的建築式樣。它也是用金銀珠寶裝飾起來的珍品。一批國家最優秀的藝術用了大約十年的時間才把它完成。
事實上,這個琥珀屋並不是作為禮物來建造的。它是為腓特烈一世的宮殿設計(製作)的。然而,下一位普魯士國王,腓特烈·威廉一世,這個琥珀屋的主人卻決定不要它了。在1716年,他把琥珀屋送給了彼得大帝。作為回贈,沙皇則送給他一隊自己最好的士兵。這樣,琥珀屋就成了沙皇在聖彼得堡冬宮的一部分。這間琥珀屋長約四米,被用作待重要賓的小型會客室。
後來,葉卡捷琳娜二世派人把琥珀屋搬到聖彼得堡郊外她避暑的宮殿中。她叫她的工匠在原來設計的基礎上增添了更多精細的裝飾。1770年,這間琥珀屋按照她的要求完成了。將近600支蠟燭照亮了這個房間,裡面的鏡子和圖畫就像金子一樣閃閃發光,可悲的是,盡管琥珀屋被認為是是世界上的一大奇跡之一,可是現在它卻消失了。
1941年9月,納粹德國的軍隊逼近聖彼得堡。這是在兩國交戰的時期。在納粹分子到達夏宮之前,俄羅斯人只能把琥珀屋裡的一些傢具和小件藝術飾品搬走。可是琥珀屋本身卻被一些納粹分子偷偷地運走了。在不到兩天的時間里,10萬個部件裝進了27個木箱。毫無疑問,這些想在後來被裝上火車運往哥尼斯堡,當時德國在波羅的海邊的一個城市。從那以後,琥珀屋的去處便成了一個迷。
近來,俄羅斯人和德國人已經在夏宮建起了一個新的琥珀屋,通過研究琥珀屋原來的照片,他們建造的新琥珀屋樣子和舊的看起來非常像。2003年春,聖彼得堡人民就用它來慶祝該市建成300周年。

Have you ever wanted to be part of a band as a famous singer or musician? Have you ever dreamed of playing in front of thousands of people at a concert, at which everyone is clapping and appreciating your music? Do you sing karaoke and pretend you are a famous singer like Song Zuying or Liu Huan? To be honest, a lot of people attach great importance to becoming rich and famous. But just how do people form a band?
Many musicians meet and form a band because they like to write and play their own music. They may start as a group of high-school students, for whom practising their music in someones house is the first step to fame. Sometimes they may ptey to passers-by in the street or subway so that they can earn some extra money for themselves or to pay for their instruments. Later they may give performances in pubs or clubs, for which they are paid in cash. Of course they hope to make records in a studio and sell millions of copies to become millionaires!
However, there was one band that started in a different way. It was called the Monkees and began as a TV show. The musicians were to play jokes on each other as well as play music, most of which was based loosely on the Beatles. The TV organizers had planned to find four musicians who could act as well as sing. They put an advertisement in a newspaper looking for rock musicians, but they could only find one who was good enough. They had to use actors for the other three members of the band.
As some of these actors could not sing well enough, they had to rely on other musicians to help them. So ring the broadcasts they just pretended to sing. Anyhow their performances were humorous enough to be copied by other groups. They were so popular that their fans formed clubs in order to get more familiar with them. Each week on TV, the Monkees would play and sing songs written by other musicians. However。
after a year or so in which they became more serious about their work, the Monkees started to play and sing their own songs like a real band. Then they proced their own records and started touring and playing their own music. In the USA they became even more popular than the Beatles and sold even more records. The band broke up about 1970, but happily they reunited in the mid-1980s. They proced a new record in 1996。
並非樂隊的樂隊
你曾經想過要成為一個樂隊里有名的歌手或音樂家嗎?你是否曾夢想過在音樂會上面對成千上萬的觀眾演唱,觀眾欣賞你的歌唱為你鼓掌嗎?你唱卡拉OK時是否假裝自己就是像宋祖英或劉歡一樣著名的歌星嗎?說實在的,很多人把名和利看得很重。那麼,人們又是怎樣一起組成樂隊的呢?
許多音樂家聚在一起組成樂隊,是因為他們喜歡自己作曲,演奏自己的音樂。他們開始可能是一組中學生,在某個人家裡排練音樂是成名的第一步。有時他們可能在街上或地鐵里為過路人演奏,這樣他們可以為自己或自己要買的樂器多掙一些錢。後來,他們可能在酒吧或者俱樂部里演出,這樣他們可以得到現金。當然,他們希望在錄音棚里錄音,然後賣掉上百萬張碟,從而成為百萬富。
然而,也有一個用不同方式組建起來的樂隊。這支樂隊叫門基樂隊,它開始時是以電視節目表演的形式出現的。組成樂隊的音樂人演奏音樂,還彼此打趣都笑。這些玩笑和音樂大多都在模仿甲殼蟲樂隊。電視製作人原計劃想尋找四位會唱又會表演的樂手。他們在報紙上登了一則廣告,想招搖滾樂手,但他們只招到一個滿意的。樂隊的其他三人只能用演員來代替。
因為這些演員中有些人唱得不是很好,他們不得不依靠隊里的其他人幫助,所以在演出的時候他們只是假唱,不管怎樣他們的表演非常幽默以至於其他的樂隊也開始模仿,他們非常走紅使得歌迷們為了更加熟悉他們而成立了俱樂部,門基樂隊每個星期都要在電視上演唱由別的音樂家創作的歌曲,然而經過大約一年以後,門基樂隊逐漸對自己的工作認真起來,他們開始像一支真正的樂隊那樣演唱自己創作的歌曲,然後他們錄制自己的唱片,並且開始巡迴表演他們自己的音樂,在美國他們甚至比甲殼蟲樂隊還要受歡迎,出售的錄音專輯還要多。
門基樂隊大約在1970年左右解散,但是令人高興的是,到80年代中期他們再次聚首,在1996年他們推出了一張新的專輯,像真正的樂隊一樣以此來慶祝他們以往的時光。

文化遺產尋找琥珀
普魯士國王腓特烈·威廉一世從未想過他送個普魯士人民偉大的禮物會有一點如此驚奇的歷史。這個禮物是因為由幾噸琥珀製成而命名的琥珀屋。這些被挑選的琥珀都有著像蜂蜜一樣漂亮的黃棕色。這間屋的設計是當時最流行的奇特的風格。這同樣是一件花了當時最好的藝術家大約十年用黃金和珠寶修飾製成的寶物。
事實上,這間屋不是制來當禮物的。這是為腓特烈一世的領土而設計的。然而,普魯士下一任國王同樣是琥珀屋的擁有者,腓特烈威廉一世決定不保留琥珀屋。在1716年他把琥珀屋送給了彼得大帝。作為報答,沙皇給了腓特烈一隊他最好的士兵。因此琥珀屋成為了沙皇避寒聖地聖彼得堡的一部分。琥珀屋作為一個大概四米長的只為重要訪客的小接待處。
後來,葉卡捷琳娜二世把琥珀屋在聖彼得堡之外的一個她避暑的地方。她讓她的藝術家加了跟多的細節在裡面。在1770年琥珀屋完全成了她想要的樣子。接近600隻蠟燭在屋內燃燒著,把鏡子和圖畫都照得像金子一樣。令人傷心的,雖然被譽為是世界奇跡之一的琥珀屋現在丟失了。
在1941年9月,納粹軍隊在聖彼得堡附近。這正是兩個國家在交戰的時候。在納粹去到避暑地方之前,俄國人民能夠從琥珀屋裡搬走一些傢具和小的藝術品。然而,一些納粹神秘的偷走了琥珀屋。至少兩天內100000多片琥珀被放進27個木箱里。這些箱子無疑會被放進一艘去往當時德軍駐扎的菠蘿的海的哥尼斯堡的船上。之後,琥珀屋發生了神馬仍然是個迷。
最近,俄國和德國人民在避暑的地方製造了一座新的琥珀屋。通過研究之前的琥珀屋的照片,他們製造了一座新的琥珀屋像舊的那座一樣。在2003年它被聖彼得堡的人民用來慶祝這座城市的300歲生日。
