  • 1.It's both an exciting but frightening experience for parents the moment their teenager obtains a driver's license.Here are some of the best and most recommended apps for teen drivers and their parents' peace of mind.
       Safe Driver
       This app works by monitoring the position and the driving speed of your child.You can also set a speed limit.Whenever your child drives over this speed limit,an alert(警报) will be sent to your phone.Its only drawback is that it's only effective when your child opens the app on their phone while driving.
       Drivesafe.ly
       If you're scared of your teenagers' tendencies to be on the phone while driving,this is a great app for them to use.Whenever a text message comes in,it'll read the message out loud.The driver needn't take their hands off the wheel in order to check text messages on their phone.The user can even respond to the message via voice.There is no need for them to type the reply.
       Textecution
       This app locks a driver's phone while he or she is driving,preventing the user from gaining access to any of the SMS functions of the phone.Parents can be alerted via the app's website.For example,you'll be sent an alert in the event that the driver has requested permission to access their phone's messaging function.This function can only be activated if the driver is safely parked or in the event of an accident.If ever your child removes the application from their phone,parents can be informed,too.
       Life 360
       The initial purpose of this app is connecting family members together.Through the app,you can share your position with one another wherever you are.It provides real-time data for parents about position and driving speed.Parents can,therefore,feel safe and secure knowing that their child has reached their intended destination.The application can be turned off.But it'll inform the members within the app that your child has disabled it.

  • 2.One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister.On this occasion,the work was made less troublesome by the presence of his girlfriend.I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children.Later,I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with.

  • 3.San Francisco has its cable cars.Seattle has its Space Needle.And,Longview has its squirrel bridge.The bridge,which has attracted international attention,is now a local landmark.
       The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder,Amos Peters,to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.
       The original bridge was built over Olympia.Way on the west edge of the library grounds.Before the bridge was built,squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff put out a nutty feast for the squirrels.Many times,Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.
       One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth,and that day's coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety.The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask for the blessing of the City Council(市政会).The Council approved,and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere jokingly named the bridge "Nutty Narrows. "
       After architects designed the bridge,Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction.They built the60-foot bridge from aluminum and lengths of fire hose(消防水带).It cost $1,000.
       It didn't take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started.Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes.The story was picked up by the media,and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers all over the world.
       In 1983,after 20 years of use,Peters took down the worn-out bridge.Crosspieces were replaced and the faded sign was repajye.aited.In July 1983,hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge.
       Peters died in 1984,and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.

  • 4.When Gitanjali Rao shared how she likes "finding solutions to real problems",it was hard to imagine this clever girl could settle a problem that had escaped scientists for years.
       In just three months,Rao came up with a device that can replace the costly and lengthy tests nowadays used to reliably determine lead(铅)levels in our fresh water.Inspired by the current litigation(诉讼)in Flint,Michigan,a case of water pollution from 2014 until present,Rao designed a new testing system that resulted in her being named "America's top young scientist"for 2017.
       Rao had been following the water problem for about two years.She was amazed by the number of people affected by lead pollution in water and wanted to do something to change this.Rao spent months trying to convince local high schools and colleges to give her lab time to continue her experiment.At home,Rao worked on her project in the "science room" she asked her parents to create for her.Rao has created a device that uses three parts:a cartridge,a Bluetooth reader and an app.To put it simply,the cartridge contains carbon nanotubes(纳米管) that react to lead.This reaction is then registered by the Bluetooth reader,which sends a signal to a mobile app that can tell you immediately if your water is safe to drink.
       Rao appropriately named the device Tethys and is hoping to make a little improvement to get the device on the market.While we may not be aware of any lead pollution present in our aging pipelines,lead poisoning can cause delays in physical and mental development.With Rao believing that the "purpose of science is to make a difference",her incredible invention could make a difference to millions of people in the United States.
