He had to write a story for his English class by Friday. “I dont know what to write about,” he complained to his dog Toby, who was asleep at his feet. Arthur was talkative when speaking to his friends. Yet he had trouble finding words when he had to write.By bedtime Arthur had drawn a picture of Toby smiling. He had drawn a tree with its branches blowing in the strong wind. He had also written a note asking his friend Lee to go to the movies on Saturday. But he had not written a single word of his story.On Wednesday, Mrs. Solomon, Arthurs English teacher, asked the class to turn in their stories. Arthurs heart went down, he turned in the only work he hadthe page with his name, the drawings and the note.Arthur wasnt surprised when Mrs. Solomon asked him to stay after class the next day. But he was surprised by what she said to him. “This is an attractive story, Arthur. The dog, the movie, the tree in the wind. I cant wait to find out how they all fit together.”“That isnt my story, Mrs. Solomon,” Arthur said. “I havent been able to think of one yet.”“Oh, I think you have the seed of a story there,” Mrs. Solomon replied, “Look at your note and the pictures and see if a story comes to you.”That night Arthur sat at his desk, and this is what he wrote: “One Saturday Mike went downstairs to meet his friend Julio at the cinema. It looked as if it might rain, so Mike carried his umbrella. Suddenly a big storm blew in, bending the trees. The noise of the wind sounded like the barking of Mikes dog Toby. Toby really hated storms and barked whenever he wanted to be let inside. Then Mike realized that it wasnt the sound of the wind. It was Toby. The dog was running after him down the busy street, barking. The sound was filled with unhappiness. Mike felt sorry because he had left Toby outside. He turned and headed home with Toby running beside him. Mike let Toby in the door just as the rain started to pour down.”Arthur had a story in the end.

AI scientists and engineers have made a lot of cool technologies.AI is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces. As a result, facial recognition（识别）is used a lot in the world. Chinese police use this technology to identify criminals（罪犯）.Once they caught a criminal when he attended a concert. It also checks the ID of ride-hailing（网约车）drivers and lets people pay for things with a smile.AI is also used in self-driving cars, which are believed to be the future of driving. Most drivers may wave or nod at passers-by to let them cross the street, but self-driving cars dont have this ability. Carmakers are testing a light signal system to help them speak to humans. The system can show what self-driving cars will do. For example, if a driverless car is yielding（让路）, it will flash two white lights side to side. A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up.Service Robots also show you know powerful AI is. Imagine thisyou come back home from school and your robot housekeeper is waiting for you at the door. After dinner, he teaches you to play the piano, just like a real music teacher. Such thoughts will soon happen in the real world. In the future, more and more service robots will become good home helpers.AI is so powerful that it can help human beings and even replace us in many jobs.（1）What does the underlined word identify mean in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
