Every evening, after returning home from school, you play with your phone for a few minutes, quickly turning into a few hours. When you finally try to finish your homework, you can only write a few words before you feel bored and tired. To stop from feeling sleepy, you decide to play a video game—just a few rounds (轮), to refresh your mind so you can start working again. But when you check the clock, it' s already the early hours of morning. Then you realize there's no time left. So you hold your pen and get to work complaining(抱怨) there isn't enough time to finish your task, and at the same time accepting praises(赞扬) from your classmates saying that you're hard-working. You tell yourself you stay up late because you are a hard worker, never admitting(承认) that the only person you're fooling is yourself. This somehow offers you a sense of achievement. However, you will soon start to feel ashamed, because you find that you're achieving little, even though you feel busy every day and that all your time is spent imagining a beautiful future, without actually doing what' s needed to make that dream reality.

But in some public restrooms in Shanghai, you won't be able to do that. If you spend more than fifteen minutes on the smart toilet there, a restroom worker will come to check on you. According to reports, about 150 high-tech restrooms have been built in the city. Each toilet there has a sensor(传感器) that can check when a person sits on the toilet and how long he has spent sitting there. Besides, the sensor can also check the air quality inside the toilet and check the water level to save water. Beijing, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are also going to use smart toilets. “I think it's okay with me because I don't think it's a good idea to read on the toilet,” a 22-year-old young man said. However, some people aren't very happy with the smart toilet. “This could be embarrassing for me. Since I was a little kid, I've always spent about half an hour on the toilet. It means a restroom work er would check on me twice. This makes me nervous,” another person, Mr. Liu, said. In fact, the smart toilet is part of China's effort to use artificial intelligence(AI)(人工智能) in different areas of life. Now technology is being used almost everywhere.
