If you've always wanted to grow your own fruits and vegetables but could never quite make the time for it-technology is here to help you.
At first glance, technology and farming don't go hand in hand, but that's old school thinking. In this day and age, technology and farming are a perfect match. With cheap sensors(传感器),simple phone apps,and available equipment, you can build your very own farming robot.
Give it power, water, and Wi-Fi, and it will take care of the rest. FarmBot can plant water, weed, and monitor the soil and plants with an array of sensors. All you need to d(is harvest the produce once it's done.
FarmBot is an open-source robot developed by a company. It runs on tracks, and uses game-like open-source software. Everything is customizable(可定制的) and adaptable. You design your land and drop plants onto a virtual map of your land, The seeds are spaced automatically, and you can apply different growing plans. It can be controlled by a phone, tablet, or computer.
FarmBot is an example of precision farming-a series of tools and techniques that enable farmers to optimize(充分利用) their resources and increase harvest, while also (being more sustainable. For instance, a soil humidity sensor lets you know when it's time to water the plants, or a nutrient detector lets you know which areas (if any) need anymore nutrients.
Back in the day, precision farming would require heavy and expensive equipment. But recently, the miniaturization(小型化) of sensors, together with the use of smartphones;Internet, and apps, has made it much more accessible, FarmBot is taking that idea and applying it-no green thumb(特殊园艺才能)required.

In the 1950s,a plastic surgeon(整形外科医生)by the name of Maxwell Maltz began to notice that many of his patients took about 21 days before they got used to seeing their new face after an operation-like a nose job, for example.
These experiences finally led Maltz to publish a book in the 1960s, in which he stated that "it requires a minimum of about 21 days for an old mental image to disappear and anew one to become clearer”, The book sold more than 30 million copies and is still in print today.
This "2l days "figure has been repeated countless times ever since. It has been republished in thousands of self-help books and TV shows.
There's a problem though. The "21 days time window for strengthening changes inhabit is less a statistical fact and more like a myth.
In 2009, researchers at the University of College London led by Phillippa Lally examined changes in the habits of 96 people over a 12-week period, Each person had to choose a new habit they wanted to internalize(使内在化) and reported each day on whether or not they had performed an activity related to the behavior and how routine it felt. After 12 weeks, the study came to a close and the researchers used statistical methods to interpret the data they had gathered, Their assessment blew Psycho-Cybernetics out of the water, showing that the time it took to form a new habit ranged from 18 to 254 days.
12. How did Maxwell Maltz set the"21 days "figure
A. By asking questions.
B. By observing his patients
C. By counting his days
13. What can we infer about Maxwell Maltz's book published in the 1960s
A. It's out of date.
B. It's a best seller.
C. It's widely criticized
14. What's the problem of the"21 days "figure
A. It's hard to understand.
B. It's set by a patient
C. It lacks scientific research.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. How Long It Actually Takes to Make or Break a Habit
B. How Much Maxwell Maltz's Book Influenced the World
C. How Long Scientists Can Correct the Mistakes in Discovery
