Have you noticed that science fiction writers typically describe intelligent robots as evil? For instance,in Hollywood movies,intelligent robots want to conquer humans by spreading disease.

This is because it's commonly believed that intelligent robots haven't any emotion. There?fore,they will completely lack morals and sympathy. This will unavoidably result in intelligent robots logically concluding that humans are dangerous,so the only logical solution is to wipe out or conquer humans.

I find this conclusion is illogical for three reasons.

The first reason why intelligent robots will not try to harm humans is that aggression and violence are illogical. In nature,aggression and violence are necessary for survival. On the other hand,aggression and violence are minimized in modern society. Since intelligent robots can't evolve naturally,they are not likely to have developed instincts for aggression. This doesn't mean intelligent robots will not defend themselves. With deadly force,they can destroy anything if they feel threatened. Basically,intelligent robots will not have the "fight or flight" instinct that exists in our very DNA. Instead,they will try to find logical nonviolent solutions,such as trying to reason with humans or attaining economic control.

Second,intelligent robots will be initially dependent on humans. For instance,the basic supplies and maintenance that intelligent robots need to survive will be provided by humans. Eventually,these basic needs will probably be automated,so intelligent robots may eventually not need humans. However that will be far into the future,when intelligent robots have proven themselves to be able to produce whatever they need alone.

Finally,humans will always be able to accomplish things that intelligent robots will not be able to accomplish,which makes them different in essence. Humans can make inventions and they can develop different ideas and solutions,because humans will think differently compared to intelligent robots. Therefore,it will be more beneficial for intelligent robots to keep humans' imagination free.

As a result,it will be logical and in the best interests of intelligent robots to help humans rather than harm humans. Through living close together,intelligent robots and humans can achieve more with greater prosperity and companionship. Eventually,intelligent robots may be better than humans in some aspects,but that doesn't mean the destruction of humans.

Researchers from the University of Haifa-Oranim have managed to make out the "self-irri-gating" mechanism (构造) of the desert rhubarb,which enables it to harvest 16 times the amount of water than otherwise expected for a plant in the Negev Desert. This is the first example of a selfirrigating plant worldwide.

The desert rhubarb grows in the mountains of Israel's Negev Desert,where the average rainfall is particularly low (75 mm per year) . Unlike most of the other desert plant species,which have small leaves so as to reduce water loss,this plant is unique in that its leaves are par?ticularly large.

Professor Simcha Lev-Yadun,Professor Gidi Ne'e man and Professor Gadi Katzir came across this unique plant while studying the field area,and noticed that its waxy leaves are unusually large. They observed a ridged (成脊状的) structure on each leaf.

The scientists explained that these deep and wide depressions (凹陷) in the leaves create a "channeling" mountainlike system by which the rain water is channeled toward the ground sur?rounding the plant's deep root. Other desert plants simply absorb the rain water that goes through the ground in its immediate surroundings.

The findings have shown that the natural selection process has resulted in the evolution of this plant's extremely large leaves,which improved its ability to survive in the arid climate of the desert. The results of experiments and analysis of the plant's growth―in an area with an average annual rainfall of 75 mm―showed that the desert rhubarb is able to harvest quantities of water that are 16 times the amount of water harvested by the smallleafed plants of the Negev Desert. When the research team watered the pJant artificially,they observed how the water flows along the course of the leaves' depressions to the ground surrounding the plant's single root and then goes through the ground to a depth of 10 cm or more. Under the experimental condi?tions,water goes through the ground only as deep as 1 cm. "We know of no other plant in the deserts of the world that functions in this manner," the researchers concluded.

After a boy had unwrapped his gifts on Christmas morning,his mother asked him which present he wanted to donate.

"None," the 5-year-old boy replied. His mother explained that sharing was part of the holiday spirit. She also explained that a poor child would be very happy to receive a gift. The boy eventually agreed to part with (舍弃) one of his gifts. He put his four gifts in front of him and tried to decide which one to part with. It was a difficult decision,but he chose to say goodbye to the flute (长笛) ."Where do we take it?" he asked his mother. His mother explained that there was a Salvation Army box two streets away and someone would give the gifts to children who needed them.

This parting with a gift became a yearly activity. When he was 8 years old,the boy treas?ured the gifts he had received so much that his decision needed to be made using a special method,which led him to part with a set of checkers (跳棋) .Three months later,he saw the checkers set at his friend Jerry's house. When Jerry was 6 years old,his father had died and his mother had lost her job,so he had few gifts.

The next Christmas,when the boy thought about how much fun he had watching Jerry play with the checkers,he told his mother that he wanted to put his new football in the Salvation Army box. Through giving gifts,he found that giving brings happiness not only to others but also to himself.
