I took a trip to visit New York with my dad after graduating from high school.One of the places on his list for us to visit was a “rare violin shop”．We made our way down the crowded streets and stopped in front of a tall building.
This building was not what I had pictured.I'd been imagining a street­level shop, open to the public, with some interesting and older violins on display.As we walked inside, we were greeted by a receptionist who asked if we had an appointment, since they were by appointment only.I wanted the ground to swallow me whole and was about to waive the visit.But my dad eagerly told them that no, and he sincerely explained that I played the violin with my high school orchestra and we would love to just pop inside and browse!
The receptionist gave us an odd look but excused herself to talk to a well­dressed man.Luckily, the man told us that since he had no other appointments right now, he would love to give us a tour!
The starting price for a violin here, we found out, was 10k.He showed us around a very private­feeling and swanky­looking condo (奢华的工作间), pointing at a room where he casu
ally mentioned he would chat with Joshua Bell when he came by.My jaw was on the floor the entire time.
At the end, the man picked up a Stradivarius and asked me to pizz a string while he held it.And he said, “Now you've played a Stradivarius.”
I don't remember the man's name, but I'm so glad that he decided to show a no­appointment, non­customer around.He inspired me to continue pursuing my instrument after high school!

Lifelike robots that can make decisions, adapt to their environment and learn, are one step closer thanks to a University of Bristol team who has shown a new way of fixing data processing into soft robotic materials.This new advance, published in Science Robotics, could create new robotic possibilities to environmental monitoring, pollution clean­up, drug delivery, wearable devices, and self­healing structures.
