20、acticing martial arts two to three hours and helping students improve their skills have become Tokudas daily routine. He expects to practice and teach martial arts for the rest of his life. “Im still learning. Its worth more than a lifetime to learn Chinese martial arts,” he said. “Once I started, I
21、 just couldnt stop. I think its also the magic of Chinese culture.”Tokuda was sent to the martial arts school when he was 10. He still remembers how unwilling he was when starting out. “My father had always wanted to learn Chinese martial arts but never got the chance, so he put his kid in,” he said
22、. “I was so afraid at that time because I thought kung fu was all about fighting.”But things changed after he learned that martial arts were more than punching and kicking.“One of the things martial arts teach me is overcoming adversity,” Tokuda said. “As a little kid, my first lesson was like, oh,
23、look, this is a thing that I can get through by diligence, perseverance(毅力)and dedication, and that was priceless for my life.”Learning Chinese martial arts opened a gateway for him to better understand Chinese culture because he could hear a lot of ancient Chinese kung fu-related stories. “It is li

28、mes only adds to the stress. A new facial-recognition app could come to the rescue, but privacy experts recommend proceeding with caution. The app, called SocialRecall, connects names with faces via smartphone cameras and facial recognition, potentially avoiding the need for formal introductions. “I
29、t breaks down these social barriers we all have when meeting somebody,” says Barry Sandrew, who created the app and tested it at an event attended by about 1,000 people. After receiving an invitation to download SocialRecall from an event organizer, the user is asked to take two selfies and sign in
30、via social media. At the event, the app is active within a previously defined geographical area. When a user points his or her phone camera at an attendees face, the app identifies the individual, displays the persons name, and links to his or her social media profile. To protect privacy, it recogni
31、zes only those who have agreed to participate. And the apps creators say it automatically deletes users data after an event.Ann Cavoukian, a privacy expert who runs the Privacy by Design Center of Excellence praises the apps creators for these protective measures.

37、or its protective measures.CDog eyesight declines with age. Injuries and ailments can cloud their vision. Zero was a highly trained, driven alert dog. So, at competitions, when he started running into obstacles and falling off the ends of teeter-totters(跷跷板), his owner, San Francisco-area dog traine
38、r Dianne Morey, was concerned. As time passed, she noticed a pattern. The problems only occurred at competitions held in horse arenas, where yellow obstacles blended into the color of the sand covering the floor. Concerned about his eyesight, Morey took Zero to a vet, who diagnosed him with a geneti
39、c condition. Morey found the diagnosis “heartbreaking.” After one last competition which he won Zero retired. In the time since, hes led a life full of activities like dock diving and hiking, where poor vision is less dangerous. While theres no cure for his disease, protective eyewear has helped kee
40、p him safe while being active. On average, dogs develop nearsightedness or farsightedness less often than humans, says Alexandra van der Woerdt at Animal Medical Center in New York City. However, their eyesight also declines with age. Injuries and some diseases such as glaucoma(青光眼)can cloud their v
41、ision. Thinking back, Morey realizes some behaviors for instance, the way Zero poked his nose before entering a gate were signs his vision was impaired. Identifying vision issues in dogs isnt as easy as with humans. Dogs dont bark wrong letters on the eye chart, and theyre very good at adapting. Tre
