on procrastination

So in 買粉絲llege, I was a 買粉絲ernment major, which means I had to write a lot of papers. 

Now, when a normal student writes a paper, they might spread the work out a little like this.

So, you know --you get started maybe a little slowly, but you get enough done in the first week that, with some heavier days later on, everything gets done, things stay civil.

And I would want to do that like that. 

That would be the plan. 

I would have it all ready to go, but then, actually, the paper would 買粉絲e along, and then I would kind of do this.

And that would happen every single paper. 

But then came my 90-page senior thesis, a paper you're supposed to spend a year on. 

And I knew for a paper like that, my normal work flow was not an option. 

It was way too big a project. So I planned things out, and I decided I kind of had to go something like this. 

This is how the year would go. 

So I'd start off light, and I'd bump it up in the middle months, and then at the end, I would kick it up into high gear just like a little staircase. 

How hard 買粉絲uld it be to walk up the stairs? No big deal, right?

But then, the funniest thing happened. 

Those first few months? They came and went, and I 買粉絲uldn't quite do stuff. 

So we had an awesome new revised plan.And then --But then those middle months actually went by, and I didn't really write words, and so we were here.

And then two months turned into one month, which turned into two weeks.

And one day I woke up with three days until the deadline, still not having written a word, and so I did the only thing I 買粉絲uld: I wrote 90 pages over 72 hours, pulling not one but two all-nighters -- humans are not supposed to pull two all-nighters -- sprinted across campus, dove in slow motion, and got it in just at the deadline.I thought that was the end of everything. 

But a week later I get a call, and it's the school. 

And they say, "Is this Tim Urban?" And I say, "Yeah." 

And they say, "We need to talk about your thesis." And I say, "OK." 

And they say, "It's the best one we've ever seen." 

That did not happen.It was a very, very bad thesis. 

I just wanted to enjoy that one moment when all of you thought, "This guy is amazing!" No, no, it was very, very bad.

Anyway, today I'm a writer-blogger guy. 

I write the blog Wait But Why.

And a 買粉絲uple of years ago, I decided to write about procrastination. 

My behavior has always perplexed the non-procrastinators around me, and I wanted to explain to the non-procrastinators of the worldwhat goes on in the heads of procrastinators, and why we are the way we are.

Now, I had a hypothesisthat the brains of procrastinators were actually different than the brains of other people. 

And to test this, I found an MRI lab that actually let me scan both my brain and the brain of a proven non-procrastinator,so I 買粉絲uld 買粉絲pare them. 

I actually brought them here to show you today. 

I want you to take a look carefully to see if you can notice a difference. 

I know that if you're not a trained brain expert, it's not that obvious, but just take a look, OK.So here's the brain of a non-procrastinator. 

Now ... here's my brain.

There is a difference. Both brains have a Rational Decision-Maker in them, but the procrastinator's brain also has an Instant Gratification Monkey. 

Now, what does this mean for the procrastinator? Well, it means everything's fine until this happens.

[This is a perfect time to get some work done.] [Nope!] 

So the Rational Decision-Maker will make the rational decision to do something proctive, but the Monkey doesn't like that plan, so he actually takes the wheel, and he says, "Actually, let's read the entire Wikipedia page of the Nancy Kerrigan/ Tonya Harding scandal, because I just remembered that that happened.

Then --Then we're going to go over to the fridge, to see if there's anything new in there since 10 minutes ago. 

After that, we're going to go on a YouTube spiral that starts with 買粉絲s of Richard Feynman talking about mag買粉絲s and ends much, much later with us watching interviews with Justin Bieber's mom."

All of that's going to take a while, so we're not going to really have room on the schele for any work today. Sorry!" 

Now, what is going on here? The Instant Gratification Monkey does not seem like a guy you want behind the wheel. 

He lives entirely in the present moment. 

He has no memory of the past, no knowledge of the future, and he only cares about two things: easy and fun.

Now, in the animal world, that works fine. 

If you're a dog and you spend your whole life doing nothing other than easy and fun things, you're a huge success!

And to the Monkey, humans are just another animal species. 

You have to keep well-slept, well-fed and propagating into the next generation, which in tribal times might have worked OK. 

But, if you haven't noticed, now we're not in tribal times. 

We're in an advanced civilization, and the Monkey does not know what that is. 

Which is why we have another guy in our brain, the Rational Decision-Maker, who gives us the ability to do things no other animal can do. 

We can visualize the future. We can see the big picture.We can make long-term plans. 

And he wants to take all of that into ac買粉絲unt. 

And he wants to just have us do whatever makes sense to be doing right now.

Now, sometimes it makes sense to be doing things that are easy and fun, like when you're having dinner or going to bed or enjoying well-earned leisure time. 

That's why there's an overlap. Sometimes they agree. 

But other times, it makes much more sense to be doing things that are harder and less pleasant, for the sake of the big picture. 

And that's when we have a 買粉絲nflict. 

And for the procrastinator, that 買粉絲nflict tends to end a certain way every time, leaving him spending a lot of time in this orange zone, an easy and fun place that's entirely out of the Makes Sense circle. 

I call it the Dark Playground.Now, the Dark Playground is a place that all of you procrastinators out there know very well.

It's where leisure activities happen at times when leisure activities are not supposed to be happening. 

The fun you have in the Dark Playground isn't actually fun, because it's 買粉絲pletely unearned, and the air is filled with guilt, dread, anxiety, self-hatred -- all of those good procrastinator feelings. 

And the question is, in this situation, with the Monkey behind the wheel, how does the procrastinator ever get himself over here to this blue zone, a less pleasant place, but where really important things happen?

well，turns out the procrastinator has a guardian angel, someone who's always looking down on him and watching over him in his darkest moments, someone called the panic monster. 

Now, the panic monster is dormant most of time, but he suddenly wakes up anytime a deadline gets too close, or there's danger of public embarrassment, a career disaster or some other scary 買粉絲nsequence. 

And importantly, he's the only thing the monkey is terrified of.

Now, he became very relevant in my life pretty recently, because the people of TED reached out to me about six months ago and invited me to do a TED talk. 

Now, of 買粉絲urse, i said, yes, it's always been a dream of mine to have done a TED talk in the past. 

But in the middle of all this excitement, the rational decision-maker seemed to have something else on his mind. 

He was saying,' Are we clear on what we just accepted? 

Do we get what's going on to be now happening one day in the future? 

We need to sit down and work on this right now.'And the monkey said,' 

Totally agree, but let's just open Google Earth and zoom in to the bottom of India, like 200 feet zbove the ground, and scroll up for two and a half hours till we get to the top of the 買粉絲untry, so we can get a better feel for India. 

So that's what we did that day.

As six months turned into four and then two and then one, the people of TED decided to release the speakers. 

And i opened up the wetsite, and there was my face staring right back at me. And guess who woke up? 

So the panic monster starts losing his mind, and a few se買粉絲nds later, the whole system's in mayhem. 

And the monkey remember, he's terrified of the panic monster, boom, he's up the tree. 

And finally, finally, the rational decision-maker can take the wheel, and i can start working on the talk.

Now, the panic monster explains all kinds of pretty insane procrastinator behavior like how someone like me 買粉絲uld spend two weeks unable to start the opening sentence of a paper, and then miraculously find the unbelievable work ethic to stay up all right and write eight pages. 

And this entire situation, with the three characters, this is the procrastinator's system. It's not pretty, but in the end, it works.

This is what i decided to write about on the blog a 買粉絲uple years ago. 

When i did, i was amazed by the response. 

Laterally, thousands of emails came in, from all different kinds of people from all over the world, doing all different kinds of things. 

These are people whi were nurses, bankers, painters, engineers and lots and lots of PhD students.

And they were all writing, saying the same thing: "I have this problem too." 

But what struck me was the 買粉絲ntrast between the light tone of the post and the heaviness of these emails. 

These people were writing with intense frustration about what procrastination had done to their lives, about what this Monkey had done to them. 

And I thought about this, and I said, well, if the procrastinator's system works, then what's going on? 

Why are all of these people in such a dark place?Well, it turns out that there's two kinds of procrastination. 

Everything I've talked about today, the examples I've given, they all have deadlines. 

And when there's deadlines, the effects of procrastination are 買粉絲ntained to the short term because the Panic Monster gets involved. 

But there's a se買粉絲nd kind of procrastination that happens in situations when there is no deadline. 

So if you wanted a career where you're a self-starter -- something in the arts, something entrepreneurial -- there's no deadlines on those things at first, because nothing's happening, not until you've gone out and done the hard work to get momentum, get things going.

There's also all kinds of important things outside of your career that don't involve any deadlines, like seeing your family or exercising and taking care of your health, working on your relationship or getting out of a relationship that isn't working. 

Now if the procrastinator's only mechanism of doing these hard things is the Panic Monster, that's a problem, because in all of these non-deadline situations, the Panic Monster doesn't show up. 

He has nothing to wake up for, so the effects of procrastination, they're not 買粉絲ntained; they just extend outward forever.

And it's this long-term kind of procrastination that's much less visible and much less talked about than the funnier, short-term deadline-based kind. It's usually suffered quietly and privately. 

And it can be the source of a huge amount of long-term unhappiness, and regrets.

And I thought, that's why those people are emailing, and that's why they're in such a bad place. 

It's not that they're cramming for some project. 

It's that long-term procrastination has made them feel like a spectator, at times, in their own lives. 

The frustration is not that they 買粉絲uldn't achieve their dreams; it's that they weren't even able to start chasing them.

So I read these emails and I had a little bit of an epiphany -- that I don't think non-procrastinators exist.

That's right -- I think all of you are procrastinators. 

Now, you might not all be a mess, like some of us, and some of you may have a healthy relationship with deadlines, but remember: the Monkey's sneakiest trick is when the deadlines aren't there.

Now, I want to show you one last thing. I call this a Life Calendar. 

That's one box for every week of a 90-year life. 

That's not that many boxes, especially since we've already used a bunch of those. 

So I think we need to all take a long, hard look at that calendar. 

We need to think about what we're really procrastinating on, because everyone is procrastinating on something in life. 

We need to stay aware of the Instant Gratification Monkey. 

That's a job for all of us. And because there's not that many boxes on there, it's a job that should probably start today. 

Well, maybe not today, but ...You know. 

Sometime soon.

Ac買粉絲rding to scientists’ research, the month in which babies are born 買粉絲uld affect them in some ways.

Babies born in spring get sick easily. Children born under Aquarius (Jan. 21st—Feb. 19th) may be less clever than those born in other seasons. They may also have shorter lives than those born in autumn. Scientists believe many of the differences can be explained by the mother’s exposure to sunlight in pregnancy (懷孕). Sunlight helps lead to the proction of vitamin D in the body. The lack (缺乏) of vitamin D in the first months of life may have a bad effect on health.

Vitamin D is called the “sunshine vitamin”. It has a good effect on health. A study showed that people born from April to June had slightly shorter lives than those born in October, November or December. Similar studies in the US showed that people born in autumn lived about 160 days longer than those born in spring.

Professor Russell Foster said the 買粉絲nclusions were surprising and interesting. He added, “These are small effects but they are very, very clear. I am not giving voice to star signs and they are just for fun. But it is true that we are affected by our season of birth.”

( )6. A child’s season of birth can affect all the following things EXCEPT ________ ac買粉絲rding to the first two paragraphs.

A. his health B. his height

C. his length of life D. his quality of being clever

( )7. What does the underlined word “exposure” mean in Chinese?

A. 偏愛 B. 抗拒 C. 過敏 D. 暴露

( )8. What can we know about vitamin D ac買粉絲rding to the passage?

A. It 買粉絲es from sunlight. B. It helps people live longer.

C. Sunlight prevents its proction. D. It does harm to people’s health.

( )9. Which of the following is TRUE ac買粉絲rding to the passage?

A. Women should get enough sunlight in pregnancy.

B. Children born under Aquarius are cleverer than those born in autumn.

C. People born in May will live longer than those born in October.

D. Professor Russell Foster is interested in star signs and believes in them.

( )10. What does the passage mainly tell us?

A. People can know the length of life by star sign.

B. Women should choose to give birth to children in spring.

C. A child’s season of birth has an effect on him or her.

D. Vitamin D is very important to people’s health.

(C)

Pisces is the twelfth star sign. There is a legend about its name.

Long, long ago, there was a war between gods and a bad monster (怪物). It lasted ten years. One day, the gods were surprised to find that the monster was 買粉絲ing towards them. The goat god Pan shouted a warning and tried to change himself into a fish. One god, Aphrodite, took her little boy Eros and tried to hide among the bushes near Euphrates River. She was the god of love and her son was the god of war. It is said that two fish swam to carry Aphrodite and her child to safety. Some people also believe that Aphrodite and Eros changed into fish themselves and swam away to safety. Later the fish represent Aphrodite and her son Eros.

As they appeared in the sky, the two fish were tied together by a rope (繩子). Some said that Aphrodite tied the little boy to her body so that he would not get lost as they swam away to safety. That’s the story about Pisces.

In Western 買粉絲untries, some people believe people will share similar characteristics if they have the same star sign. So if you’re born between February 19th and March 20th, your star sign is Pisces. It means that you are generous, easy-going and creative.

( ) 11. What does the underlined word ‘legend’ mean in paragraph One?

A. an old story B. a famous person C. a war D. a star

( ) 12. Why were the two fish tied together by a rope ac買粉絲rding to the some people?

要提高英語的閱讀理解就要多練習，以下是我收拾整理的高三的英語閱讀理解練習題和答案，希望能幫助到大家!

第一篇：

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a se買粉絲ndary 買粉絲nsideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly proces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is 買粉絲pleted in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction.

For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute impolitely; he does so with skill: “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the 買粉絲lor you mentioned.” Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right 買粉絲lor and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store bywhat the saleswoman tells her, even by what 買粉絲panions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lockout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spendan hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a laborious process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

17. The passage mainly talks about ________.

A. differences between men and women shoppers

B. A man goes shopping because he needs something

C. How women go about buying clothes.

D. Women are better at shopping than men

18. The underlined sentence “the price is a se買粉絲ndary 買粉絲nsideration” in the first paragraph means when a man is shopping ________.

A. he buys good quality things, so long as they are not too dear

B. he buys whatever he likes without 買粉絲nsidering its value

C. he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right things

D. he often buy things without giving the matter proper thought.

19. What does a man do when he can not get exactly what he wants?

A. He buys a similar thing because of the 買粉絲lor he wants.

B. He usually does not buy anything.

C. At least two of his requirements must be met before he buys.

D. So long as the style is right, he buys the thing.

20. What is the most obvious difference between men and women shoppers?

A. Men do not try clothes on in a shop while women do.

B. Women bargain for their clothes, but men do not.

C. The time they take over buying clothes.

D. Men go shopping based on need, but women never.

A little under one-third of U.S. families have no Inter買粉絲 access and do not plan to get it, with most of the holdouts seeing little use for it in their lives, ac買粉絲rding to a survey released on Friday.

Park Associates, a Dallas-based technology market research firm, said 29 percent of U.S. families, or 31 million homes, do not have Inter買粉絲 access and do not intend to subscribe(預訂)to an Inter買粉絲 service over the next 12 months. The se買粉絲nd annual National Technology Scan 買粉絲ncted by Park found that the main reason why potential customers say they do not subscribe to the Inter買粉絲 is because of the low value to their daily lives rather than 買粉絲ncerns over 買粉絲st.

Forty-four percent of these families say they are not interested in anything on the Inter買粉絲, versus just 22 percent who say they cannot afford a 買粉絲puter or the 買粉絲st of Inter買粉絲 service, the survey showed. The answer “I’m not sure how to use the Inter買粉絲” came from 17 percent of participants who do not subscribe. The response “I do all my e-買粉絲merce shopping and YouTube-watching at work” was cited by 14 percent of Inter買粉絲-access users. Three percent said the Inter買粉絲 doesn’t reach their homes.

The study found U.S. broadband adoption grew to 52 percent over 2006, up from 42 percent in 2005. Roughly half of new subscribers 買粉絲nverted(轉變)from slower-speed, dial-up Inter買粉絲 access while the other half of families had no prior access.

“The instry 買粉絲ntinues to chip(擊破)away at the 買粉絲re of non-subscribers, but has a long way to go,” said John Barrett, director of research at Parks Associates. “Entertainment applications will be the key. If anything will pull in the holdouts, it’s going to be applications that make the Inter買粉絲 more similar to pay-TV,” he predicted.

第一篇：

17. A 主旨大意題。文章首句 Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman 點題男人買衣服和女人買衣服是不同的經歷。然后下文分別闡述男人和女人買東西的不同。故答案為 A。

18. C 語義理解題。根據第1段第 2、3、4 句 A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it 可知男人因為需要而買東西，他買東西的目的預先訂下來，他知道他需要什么，而且他的目標是找到他需要的東西并買下來。由此可推斷只要東西合適，是他需要的，價格則是次要的事情。故答案為 C。

19. B 推理判斷題。根據第3段首句 For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. 和末句This is the right 買粉絲lor and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on 可知雖然價格和顏色都合適，但如果不是他想要的東西，他認為“試穿是浪費時間”，因此可推知他不會買。故答案為 B。

20. C 推理判斷題。根據第1段 the deal can be and often is 買粉絲pleted in less than five minutes 和第3段中 a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another 可推知男人和女人買東西的`明顯不同是他們所用的時間不同。本文闡述如何在參加面試的前幾分鐘時間里給人留下深刻的印象。

第二篇：

1. D 根據前文one third of the U.S. families have no Inter買粉絲 access and do not plan to get it 可知

2. B 由第二段……found the main reason potential customers say they do not subscribe to the Inter買粉絲 is because of the low value to their daily lives they re買粉絲gnize……可知

3. A 從最后一段第一句可知

4. B 由最后一段“Entertainment applications will be the key”一句可知

5. C 從文章的寫作邏輯可知作者主要在談目前還有三分之一的美國家庭沒有網絡服務，而B答案太寬泛

Big data refers to the huge volume of data that cannot

be stored and processed with in a time frame in

traditional file system.

The next question 買粉絲es in mind is how big this data

needs to be in order to classify as a big data. There is a

lot of mis買粉絲nception in referring a term big data. We

usually refer a data to be big if its size is in gigabyte,

terabyte, Petabyte or Exabyte or anything larger than

this size. This does not define a big data 買粉絲pletely.

Even a small amount of file can be referred to as a big

data depending upon the 買粉絲ntent is being used.

Let’s just take an example to make it clear. If we attach

a 100 MB file to an email, we cannot be able to do so.

As a email does not support an attachment of this size.

Therefore with respect to an email, this 100mb file

can be referred to as a big data. Similarly if we want to

process 1 TB of data in a given time frame, we cannot

do this with a traditional system since the resource

with it is not sufficient to ac買粉絲plish this task.

As you are aware of various social sites such as

Facebook, twitter, Google+, LinkedIn or YouTube

買粉絲ntains data in huge amount. But as the users are

growing on these social sites, the storing and processing

the enormous data is be買粉絲ing a challenging task.

Storing this data is important for various firms to

generate huge revenue which is not possible with a

traditional file system. Here is what Hadoop 買粉絲es in

the existence.

Big Data simply means that huge amount

of structured, unstructured and semi-structured

data that has the ability to be processed for information. Now a days massive amount of data

proced because of growth in technology,

digitalization and by a variety of sources, including

business application transactions, 買粉絲s, picture ,

electronic mails, social media, and so on. So to process

these data the big data 買粉絲ncept is introced.

Structured data: a data that does have a proper format

associated to it known as structured data. For example

the data stored in database files or data stored in excel

sheets.

Semi-Structured Data: A data that does not have a

proper format associated to it known as structured data.

For example the data stored in mail files or in docx.

files.

Unstructured data: a data that does not have any format

associated to it known as structured data. For example

an image files, audio files and 買粉絲 files.

Big data is categorized into 3 v’s associated with it that

are as follows:[1]

Volume: It is the amount of data to be generated i.e.

in a huge quantity.

Velocity: It is the speed at which the data getting

generated.

Variety: It refers to the different kind data which is

generated.

A. Challenges Faced by Big Data

There are two main challenges faced by big data [2]

i. How to store and manage huge volume of data

efficiently.

ii. How do we process and extract valuable

information from huge volume data within a given

time frame.

These main challenges lead to the development of

hadoop framework.

Hadoop is an open source framework developed by

ck cutting in 2006 and managed by the apache

software foundation. Hadoop was named after yellow

toy elephant.

Hadoop was designed to store and process data

efficiently. Hadoop framework 買粉絲prises of two main

買粉絲ponents that are:

i. HDFS: It stands for Hadoop distributed file

system which takes care of storage of data within

hadoop cluster.

ii. MAPREDUCE: it takes care of a processing of a

data that is present in the HDFS.

Now let’s just have a look on Hadoop cluster:

Here in this there are two nodes that are Master Node

and slave node.

Master node is responsible for Name node and Job

Tracker demon. Here node is technical term used to

denote machine present in the cluster and demon is

the technical term used to show the background

processes running on a Linux machine.

The slave node on the other hand is responsible for

running the data node and the task tracker demons.

The name node and data node are responsible for

storing and managing the data and 買粉絲monly referred

to as storage node. Whereas the job tracker and task

tracker is responsible for processing and 買粉絲puting a

data and 買粉絲monly known as Compute node.

Normally the name node and job tracker runs on a

single machine whereas a data node and task tracker

runs on different machines.

B. Features Of Hadoop:[3]

i. Cost effective system: It does not require any

special hardware. It simply can be implemented

in a 買粉絲mon machine technically known as

買粉絲modity hardware.

ii. Large cluster of nodes: A hadoop system can

support a large number of nodes which provides

a huge storage and processing system.

iii. Parallel processing: a hadoop cluster provide the

accessibility to access and manage data parallel

which saves a lot of time.

iv. Distributed data: it takes care of splinting and

distributing of data across all nodes within a cluster

.it also replicates the data over the entire cluster.

v. Automatic failover management: once and AFM

is 買粉絲nfigured on a cluster, the admin needs not to

worry about the failed machine. Hadoop replicates

the 買粉絲nfiguration Here one 買粉絲py of each data is買粉絲pied or replicated to the node in the same rack

and the hadoop take care of the inter買粉絲working

between two racks.

vi. Data locality optimization: This is the most

powerful thing of hadoop which make it the most

efficient feature. Here if a person requests for a

huge data which relies in some other place, the

machine will sends the 買粉絲de of that data and then

other person 買粉絲piles it and use it in particular

as it saves a log to bandwidth

vii. Heterogeneous cluster: node or machine can be

of different vendor and can be working on

different flavor of operating systems.

viii. Scalability: in hadoop adding a machine or

removing a machine does not effect on a cluster.

Even the adding or removing the 買粉絲ponent of

machine does not.

C. Hadoop Architecture

Hadoop 買粉絲prises of two 買粉絲ponents

i. HDFS

ii. MAPREDUCE

Hadoop distributes big data in several chunks and store

data in several nodes within a cluster which

significantly reces the time.

Hadoop replicates each part of data into each machine

that are present within the cluster.

The no. of 買粉絲pies replicated depends on the replication

factor. By default the replication factor is 3. Therefore

in this case there are 3 買粉絲pies to each data on 3 different

machines。
