A new device called Bow-Lingual “translates” dog barks into English, Korea or Japanese. Bow-Linguals Japanese inventors spent much time and money analyzing dog barks. They found that dog noises can be broken down into six different emotions: happiness, sadness, frustration, anger, assertion and desire. Part of the Bow-Lingual device hangs on the dogs collar. The other part is a handle-held unit for the owner. When the dog barks, the unit displays translated phrases.Some people have scoffed at Bow-Lingual. “Who would pay US $ 120 to read a dogs mind?” they ask. but those who have purchased Bow-Lingual praise the device. Pet owner Keiko Egawa, of Japan, says it helps her empathize with her dog, Harry. “Before we go to the park, he always says he wants to play,” says Egawa, “and after a walk, he always says he is hungry. ”Bow-Lingual is not yet available in Chinese.

Since the wheels did not grip concrete (混凝土) well, riders could do very few tricks with them. Soon people lost interest in the sport. In 1973, though, a new wheel was invented in California. It was made of a plastic called urethane (氨基甲酸酯). A skateboard with these wheels moved very quickly and it also gripped the concrete well.During the next few years skateboards were further improved. The urethane was perfected, and because the boards were shaped better, riders liked them better. These skateboards gave new life to skateboarding.The streets were not safe for skateboarding, although it was easy to ride on the streets. As a result, skateboard parks sprang up. The first parks appeared in California and Florida. At first there were only outdoor parks that had concrete slopes with small curves (曲線). Then more exciting parks appeared which had steep downward slopes, banked curves and vertical walls. Today, there are both indoor and outdoor parks. In most of these parks riders must wear helmets as well as knee and elbow pads. This gear can prevent a fall from causing serious injury. Whenever they ride, people should always use this safety equipment and they should learn how to fall safely. Many accidents happen during the first week of riding so it is very important that riders be taught well.66. The underlined word “grip” in the first paragraph probably means “_”.A. move over a surface without slipping B. stick to C. get used to D. break down67. Why were the new skateboards more popular?A.
