Soft "machine dragon"

 　　In 2012, a team at Duke University in the United States created a self-healing hydrogel. Researchers hope to use this hydrogel to create a soft robot. After several iterations, the researchers decided to shape the robot into a dragonfly shape with a micro-channel network inside, and use air pressure to control it through a micro-pipe connected to the outside.

　　Recently, this "robotic dragonfly"-DraBot was born, which can "fly" with its wings on the water. Utilizing the characteristics of hydrogel, DraBot can make corresponding changes according to the DH value of the surrounding water. If the water becomes acidic, the front wing on one side merges with the back wing, and the imbalance makes the robot no longer move in a straight line, but will turn in circles. Once the DH returns to its normal level, the hydrogel will "return to its original shape" and the fused wings will separate and return to linear motion. The researchers also incorporated temperature-sensitive materials into the wings. When the water became too hot, DraBot's wings changed from red to yellow. Researchers believe that this measurement may play an important role in environmental robot sensors in the future.

Moroccan football team: "The most familiar stranger"

 　　When I was still in college ten years ago, I led a sightseeing group of more than 30 Moroccan students. Before meeting them, my general impression of the Moroccans was that they are from North Africa but closer to the Arab world. They have religious beliefs, are used to worship, and are inextricably linked with France. 　　When I saw the real person, I realized that the North Africans in front of me were actually a group of children playing with each other and having fun in time. They were about the same age as me at the time. I have all kinds of nicknames and nicknames. During the process of taking them to Badaling, the Summer Palace and Houhai, two classmates and I, together with more than 30 Moroccan students, realized "cultural integration" and "world unity" in the small group to some extent. 　　During the World Cup in Qatar, I was surprised to find that the little-known Morocco team, which was eliminated in the group stage of the last World Cup, after miraculou

Zeigarnik effect

　　As a freelancer, you have to fight procrastination every day. "I've made up my mind many times, but I just can't change it. Is it because I'm slow or slow?". In fact, many procrastinations are irrational. Many obstructions are imagined by myself. So distract, postpone, avoid confrontation. It's cool to procrastinate, and it's cool to procrastinate all the time, so I can't do it. Concentration is also related to physical strength. When the physical strength is exhausted, it is even more difficult to concentrate. You’ll tell yourself: I’m too tired to do this—okay, another perfect procrastination. 　　In 1927, Bruma Zeigarnik's senior research found that people are more likely to care about unfinished and interrupted work than completed work. This is the Zeigarnik effect. For example, we often don't care much about what we have got, but we will especially cherish what we have worked hard but haven't got. Therefore, the TV series will tell you
