Kanda really doesn't like to walk alone. The scientist from a research institute of intelligent robots finds the experience so boring that he'd rather drive—even though he lives close to his lab and knows that walking us 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, 3.5inches wide, and 10 inches long. A microphone, speaker, and internal camera allow it to communicate. It's even equipped with a smile.

Kanda and his team collected video form five different locations, including a garden and a shopping mall, and created a dataset of small talk topics related to each 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 of parked cars, for example, it might say, "In a big parking lot, sometimes I forget where I parked."

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 when I was a child." Although several participants noted the robot's weight, Kanda was surprised that no one considered the experience as strange 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 hold a 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."

1.Why does Kanda have the idea of developing a robotic walking partner?

A. Because he wants someone to accompany him while walking.

B. Because he has never developed a robot like a parrot.

C. Because his family are unwilling to walk with him.

D. Because he is crazy about developing robots.

2.What characteristic does the robot have?

A. It can "speak" and "see".

B. It can walk like a human being.

C. It can communicate with people freely.

D. It is much more humorous than a real person.

3.What is necessary for the robot to function?

A. A small size.

B. A boxy shape.

C. A human partner.

D. A speech software.

4.What is Kanda most likely to do about his robot next?

A. To make it more convenient to carry.

B. To improve its conversational skills.

C. To enable it to walk in heavy rain.

D. To better its sound system.

Each year Worcestershire plays host to a huge variety of events and festivals. Many are large scale(大规模的) events that attract people from around Britain and the world.

Every Christmas Worcester holds a four-day Victorian themed street market, when the streets are lined with stalls selling traditional crafts, gifts and food. Live music to suit all tastes is a regular feature at Huntingdon Hall in Worcester.

There are also much smaller scale events that take place throughout the year, such as village outdoor activities, beer festivals and the more quirky(离奇的), such as the asparagus auction(芦笋拍卖会) that take place each May at the ancient Fleece Inn at Bretforton. The scarecrow(稻草人) event at Belbroughton is also very popular-- villagers make scarecrow and display their handiwork outside their homes, with all profits(利润) going to the country.

National Potato Day was back on Friday 23rd August 2013. Along with BordBia (Irish Food Board) and many other potato growers in Ireland, Keogh’s Farm brought you a day that was all about potatoes and showing love for our national vegetable.

Keogh’s invited the public to Spud Fest, which took place on Dublin’s South King Street from 12 pm to 4 pm. This festival brought the farm to the city with potato performers, face painters, balloon modeling, music, tastings and plenty of other festival fun to celebrate the most delicious day of the year. There were lots of potatoes, of course.

Keogh’s along with the support of BordBia called on everyone to enjoy at least one potato on National Potato Day. Potatoes are naturally low in fat, a great source of vitamins and minerals and are a great way to support local Irish homegrown produce and businesses.

Tom Keogh, General Manager of Keogh’s Farm said, “We can’t believe we were getting ready for our third year of National Potato Day. When we dreamt the idea up in 2011, we had no idea it would attract so many people. Since the first National Potato Day we have received nothing but interest in potatoes at home and all over the world.

“Ireland is now recognized as one of the finest producers of top quality vegetables, with the potato leading the field. We are happy that BordBia have joined us this year to bring all our fellow potato producers together and join forces to promote (提升) the enjoyment of the potato. We are hoping National Potato Day is a day to encourage everyone to love potatoes!”

There's a curious thing about people.All of us are driven in some way or another to achieve—we want to run faster,be more creative,win more awards,and earn more money.But here's the thing: if you want to offer warm of wisdom,constructive criticism or "360-degree feedback",then think again.Most of us would rather not hear it.

Our easily-broken egos（自尊心）are partly to blame.We all want to meet our own expectations of ourselves,and so being critiqued can present a huge threat to our egos.Yet as decades of psychological theory and research have indicated,people have endless tricky strategies of remaining positive in the face of criticism.For this reason,rather than us welcoming feedback with open arms,our first response is often an automatic defense.These reactions serve to make us feel better about ourselves.

Psychological research exposes this unhealthy appetite for ignorance.In one study,students watched a false educational film about a serious disease called "TAA Deficiency".In fact,TAA Deficiency is completely fictional,but the students were not told this information;instead,they were asked whether they wished to provide a cheek test for assessing（评估）their risk of developing the disease.Half of the students were told that if they ever developed TAA Deficiency,then the treatment would involve them taking a two-week course of pills.Of this group,52% agreed to provide the cheek test.The other half of students learned the treatment would involve taking the pills for the rest of their lives.Of this group,only 21% agreed to the test.

These findings show a common pattern seen in other studies within and beyond the context of healthcare.That is,people are especially resistant to hearing feedback when they believe it could lead them to do something difficult- or unpleasant.

1.The author implies in Paragraph 1 that people should .

A. be cautious when giving advice B. be satisfied with what he has

C. offer constructive criticism D. care less about others

2.How do people usually react when facing criticism?

A. They try to avoid it. B. They deal with it seriously.

C. They tend to defend themselves. D. They turn to psychological theory.

3.Why didn't most of the second group agree to the test?

A. They didn't believe in it. B. They knew it was just an experiment.

C. They were sensitive to the negative result. D. They didn't like the way they were treated.

4.What can be the best title for the passage?

A. Meeting Criticism B. Rethinking Feedbacks

C. Improving Healthcare D. Fighting TAA Deficiency
