Unit 2 Cloning李仕才一、阅读理解。

Kanda really doesn’t like to walk alone.The scientist from a research instituteof intelligent robots finds the experience so boring that he’d rather drive— even though he lives close to his lab and knows that walking is healthy . “I enjoy walking with someone， like with my wife ， with my daughter ，” Kanda said.“ But they are not always available.”So Kanda，who specializes in human- like bots ，developed a robotic walking partner that could make small talk based on its surroundings，which ，he hopes ，might motivate people to get out and exercise more.The bot rests on a person’ s shoulder like a boxy parrot.It weighs about a pound and a half and sits roughly 8.5 inches high，and is 3.5 inches wide and 10 inches long.A microphone ， a speaker ，and an internal camera allow it to communicate.It’ s even equipped with a smile.Kanda and his team collected video from five different locations， including a garden and a shopping mall， and created a dataset of small talk topics related toeach location.Then they programmed the robot to associate visual cues with specific topics.A special speech software provided the robot with a voice.Near a group ofparked cars ， for example ， it might say ，“In a big parking lot ， sometimes I forget where I parke d. ”They tested the robot on 15 volunteers， 10 males and 5 females， who were paid and averaged about 26 years old.“Have you ever blown a puff of dandelion（蒲公英） seeds into the air？” The robot asked a participant， who smiled and responded ，“Yes， I often did that w hen I was a child.” Altho ugh several participants notedthe robot’s weight， Kanda was surprised that no one considered the experiencestrange or funny.“ I guess people enjoy new technologies，” he said.Just like a human partner， Kanda’ s bot isn ’ t perfect.It’ s not able to go for walks in heavy rain and， while the robot can make expressions， it can ’ t really holda conversation ， about which Kanda is most worried.Despite its limits， Kanda was comforted by the bot’s presence. “ I felt a kind of sense of being with someone，”he said ，“particularly when it spoke.”【解题导语】本文主要介绍了新研发的陪人漫步的机器人。
