Line
One of the most amazing marathon races in the world is marathon of the Sands. 1
It takes places every April in the Sahara Desert in the south of Morocco, a part 2
of the world when temperatures can reach fifty degree centigrade. The standard 3
length of the marathon is 42.5 kilometers but this one is 240 kilometers long and 4
spends seven days to complete. It began in 1986 and now attracts about two 5
hundred runners, the majority of their ages range from seventeen to forty-seven. 6
About half of them come from France and the rest to all over the world. From 7
Britain it costs £2,500 to enter, this includes return air fares. The race is rapid 8
getting more and more popular despite, and perhaps because of the harsh 9
condition that runners must endure. They have to carry food and something else 10
3
they need for seven days in rucksack weighing no more than twelve kilograms. 11
In addition to this, they are given a litre and a half of water every ten kilometer, 12
Incredibly, near all the runners finish the course. One man, Lbrahim EL Joual, 13
took part in every race from 1984 to 2004. Runners do suffer terrible physical 14
hardships. Sometimes they lose toenails and skin peels on their foot. However, 15
doctors are always on hand to deal with minor injuries and to make sure that 16
runners do not push themselves too far. 17

ENERGY FROM THE WAVES
The quest for sustainable sources of energy has led humans to study the energy potential of the sun
and the wind, as well as the immense power created by dammed rivers. The oceans, too, represent an
impressive source of potential energy. For example, it has been estimated that the oceans could provide
nearly 3,000 times the energy generated by hydroelectric dams such as the Hoover Dam. Yet. this source
remains quite difficult to exploit.
But this challenge has not prevented scientists from trying. Within the last few decades, several
technologies that can transform the ocean’s immense forces into usable electricity have been invented and
introduced. Some focus on capturing the power of the changing tides, while others rely on thermal energy
created by oceans in certain tropical regions. However, the most common and easiest-to-develop
technologies are those designed to harness the power inherent in the ocean’s waves.
There are several methods by which ocean-wave energy can be collected. All of them work because
the movement of the water that the waves induce creates storable energy by directly or indirectly driving a
power generator. In one such technology, the changing water levels in the ocean that are produced by waves
lift a long floating tube comprised of many sections connected by hinges. As the sections move up and down
with the water, they pump a special fluid through the tube that can be used to drive a generator. Another
technique works on a similar principle, only the floating object rocks back and forth with the motion of the
water instead of up and down. A third method of collecting wave energy relies on the rising water from the
waves to compress air in a partially submerged chamber. As the waves rush into the chamber, they push the
air out through a narrow tunnel. Located inside this tunnel is a turbine connected to a power generator. The
movement of the air turns the turbine, which feeds energy into the generator.
The drawback to each of these concepts is that they make it necessary to have many pieces of
machinery linked together. [B] This presents a problem because the larger the device, the more vulnerable it
is to damage from hazardous ocean environments, and the more likely it is to interfere with otherwise
unspoiled coastal scenery. [C] Also, these methods demand the construction of site- specific machines that
take into consideration average local wave heights and sea conditions. [D] In other words, the ability to get
power from waves differs from region to region.
Japan, Norway, and the UK have all attempted to generate energy by capturing the power of ocean
waves. In northern Scotland, the first power plant to use wave power, OSPREY (Ocean Swell Powered
Renewable Energy), began operating in 1995. It followed the principle of the third method described above:
waves entering a partially submerged chamber pushed air into turbines ; to generate electricity. The
electricity was then transmitted to power collectors on the shore via underwater cables. Unfortunately, the
OSPREY plant was destroyed in a large storm, highlighting an unavoidable difficulty associated with this
kind of power generation.
The potential benefits of wave-based energy are hard to ignore. Once the proper machinery is
produced and installed, the energy is free. Maintenance costs are small, and the equipment does not pose any
threats of environmental pollution. And best of all, the amounts of energy produced are enormous. However,
these theoretical advantages have yet to be fully realized. In many cases, a lack of government funding has
inhibited the technologies from advancing. For example, despite the relative abundance of proposed wave-
power devices, many have not been adequately tested, and most have been evaluated only in artificial pools
where they are not subjected to the harsh marine conditions that exist in actual oceans. Protecting the
equipment from the sea’s destructive forces, as well as the fundamental task of determining feasible locations
for collecting energy, also present formidable challenges. All in all, while ocean power offers some
intriguing possibilities, the difficulties involved in harnessing this energy source are substantial and will

DAWN OF THE ROBOTS


They're already here - driving cars, vacuuming carpets and feeding hospital patients. They may not
be walking, talking, human-like sentient beings, but they are clever and ….a little creepy. 
A. At first sight it looked like a typical suburban road accident. A Land Rover approached a Chevy
Tahoe estate car that had stopped at a kerb; the Land Rover pulled out and tried to pass the Tahoe just as it
started off again. There was a crack of fenders and the sound of paintwork being scraped, the kind of minor
mishap that occurs on roads thousands of times every day. Normally drivers get out, gesticulate, exchange
insurance details and then drive off. But not on this occasion. No one got out of the cars for the simple reason
that they had no humans inside them; the Tahoe and Land Rover were being controlled by computers
competing in November’s DARPA (the US Defense Advanced Research Project Agency) Urban Challenge.
B. The idea that machines could perform to such standards is startling. Driving is a complex task that
takes humans a long time to perfect. Yet here, each car had its on-board computer loaded with a digital map
and route plans, and was instructed to negotiate busy roads; differentiate between pedestrians and stationary
objects; determine whether other vehicles were parked or moving off; and handle various parking maneuvers,
which robots turn out to be unexpectedly adept at. Even more striking was the fact that the collision between
the robot Land Rover, built by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Tahoe, fitted
out by Cornell University Artificial Intelligence (AI) experts, was the only scrape in the entire competition.
Yet only three years earlier, at DARPA's previous driverless car race, every robot competitor - directed to
navigate across a stretch of open desert - either crashed or seized up before getting near the finishing line. 
C. It is a remarkable transition that has clear implications for the car of the future. More importantly, it
demonstrates how robotics sciences and Artificial Intelligence have progressed in the past few years - a point
stressed by Bill Gates, the Microsoft boss who is a convert to these causes.  'The robotics industry is
developing in much the same way the computer business did 30 years ago,' he argues. As he points out,
electronics companies make toys that mimic pets and children with increasing sophistication. 'I can envision
a future in which robotic devices will become a nearly ubiquitous part of our day-to-day lives,' says
Gates. 'We may be on the verge of a new era, when PC will get up off the desktop and allow us to see, hear,
touch and manipulate objects in places where we are not physically present.'
D. What is the potential for robots and computers in the near future? 'The fact is we still have a way to
go before real robots catch up with their science fiction counterparts', Gates says. So what are the stumbling
blocks? One key difficulty is getting robots to know their place. This has nothing to do with class or
etiquette, but concerns the simple issue of positioning. Humans orient themselves with other objects in a
room very easily. Robots find the task almost impossible. 'Even something as simple as telling the difference
between an open door and a window can be tricky for a robot,' says Gates. This has, until recently, reduced
robots to fairly static and cumbersome roles.
E. For a long time, researchers tried to get round the problem by attempting to re-create the visual
processing that goes on in the human cortex. However, that challenge has proved to be singularly exacting
and complex. So scientists have turned to simpler alternatives: 'We have become far more pragmatic in our
work,' says Nello Cristianini, Professor of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Bristol in England and
associate editor of the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research. 'We are no longer trying to re-create
human functions. Instead, we are looking for simpler solutions with basic electronic sensors, for
example. This approach is exemplified by vacuuming robots such as the Electrolux Trilobite. The Trilobite
scuttles around homes emitting ultrasound signals to create maps of rooms, which are remembered for
future cleaning. Technology like this is now changing the face of robotics, says philosopher Ron Chrisley,
director of the Centre for Research in Cognitive Science at the University of Sussex in England. 
F. Last year, a new Hong Kong restaurant, Robot Kitchen, opened with a couple of sensor-laden
humanoid machines directing customers to their seats. Each possesses a touch-screen on which orders can be
keyed in. The robot then returns with the correct dishes. In Japan, University of Tokyo researchers recently
unveiled a kitchen 'android' that could wash dishes, pour tea and make a few limited meals. The ultimate aim
is to provide robot home helpers for the sick and the elderly, a key concern in a country like Japan where 22
8
per cent of the population is 65 or older. Over US$1 billion a year is spent on research into robots that will be
able to care for the elderly. Robots first learn basic competence - how to move around a house without
bumping into things. Then we can think about teaching them how to interact with humans,' Chrisley
said. Machines such as these take researchers into the field of socialized robotics: how to make robots act in a
way that does not scare or offend individuals. 'We need to study how robots should approach people, how
they should appear. That is going to be a key area for future research,' adds Chrisles.
