4．The street was crowdedwith people and the traffic was held up．

1．We can make all the jokes we want about taking baths ourselves，but if we are ill in bed and can't get up，we'll be thankful to the nurses who help us get clean．While I am not a nurse，and have never given anyone a bath，I would imagine that it would take a lot of sympathy （同情） and patience to do so．Yet those who attended the International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems last month were introduced to Cody，a robot that can bathe human beings．
The robot has a base that can be turned to all directions，two humanlike arms，and movable wrists （腕）．It uses a camera to locate parts of the human body．It then uses bath gloves to clean with a little pressure．
The robot was designed at the Georgia Institute of Technology．Charles Kemp of the Healthcare Robotics Lab is the senior researcher for the project．In a test run，Cody was able to remove 96% of a test subject's dirt-not bad for a robot．
But don't go asking for Cody yet-he's still a model．Yet researchers believe that one day Cody may take the place of nurses for this task．Researchers say that Cody will give patients dignity and protect their personal information．I suppose that would depend on the patient．I'm not sure whether a robot using a camera would make me feel very dignified．
Even so，I can appreciate the need．We don't have enough nurses to go around，and those places that are the most shorthanded，for example，nursing homes，are those that have the most patients who are unable to bathe themselves．Still，before I get there，I hope they think of a better way to solve the problem．

A．Cody can bathe patients better than a real nurse can
B．robots like Cody are being produced in large numbers right now
C．Cody can take the place of nurses completely in hospitals
D．researchers think Cody can protect patients'personal information
24．There is a need for Cody becauseC．
A．people are becoming lazier
B．it can bring down the cost of nursing

3．What does it mean to say that we live in a world of persuasion？It means that we live among competing interests．Your roommate's need to study for an exam may take priority（优先）over pizza．Your instructor may have good reasons not to change your grade．And the object of your romantic interest may have other choices．
　　In such a world，persuasion is the art of getting others to give fair and favorable consideration to our point of view．When we persuade，we want to influence how others believe and behave．We may not always prevail-other points of view may be more persuasive，depending on the listener，the situation，and the merits of the case．But when we practice the art of persuasion，we try to ensure that our position receives the attention it deserves．
　　Some people，however，object to the very idea of persuasion．They may regard it as an unwelcome interruption into their lives．Just the opposite，we believe that persuasion is unavoidable-to live is to persuade．Persuasion may be ethical（合乎道义的） or unethical，selfless or selfish，inspiring or degrading．Persuaders may enlighten our minds or catch our vulnerability（弱点）．Ethical persuasion，however，calls on sound reasoning and is sensitive to the feelings and needs of listeners．Such persuasion can help us apply the wisdom of the past to the decisions we now must make．Therefore，the most basic part of education is learning to resist the one kind of persuasion and to encourage and practice the other．
　　Beyond its personal importance to us，persuasion is necessary to society．The right to persuade and be persuaded is the bedrock of the American political system，guaranteed by the First Amendment to the Constitution（美国宪法）．
32．According to the passage，persuasion meansC．
A．changing others'point of view

D．getting people to agree with you and do what you want

35．The passage mainly discussesD．
