That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The resear

11、chers received a $ 3-million-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence, or AI., to Hasbros “Joy for All” robotic.The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced over 1000 dollars, it sold quite well.

12、It was meant to act as a “companion” for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers at Browns Humanity-Centered Robotics Initiative are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small

13、 number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the person to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars.It is an idea that has appealed to Jeanne Elliott. Her 3-year-old mother Mary Derr lives w

14、ith her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia( 痴 呆 ). The Joy for All cat that Elliott bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her calm while Elliott is at work. Elliott said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be

15、careful when she walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to

16、successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people.1、Whats the purpose of the

17、 project?ATo relieve the pain of the elderly. BTo promote the sales of a medicine.CTo invent a robotic cat for the elderly. DTo help make the robotic cat smarter.2、Compared with the old model, the new robotic cat will be .Asmaller BcheaperCmore talkative Dmore expensive3、What does Paragraph 3 intend

19、 the elderly are unavoidable.CEach family can afford such a cat in the future.DThe feeling of being needed is vital to the elderly.22（8分） Paris is the city of dreams. If you plan to head to Paris for a study period, then perhaps a little reality check is in order. But my experience was a romantic on

20、e.I paved my path to Paris through an exchange program. On arrival in Paris, I was constantly reminded of the official processes I had to complete forms to be filled in, meetings to attend, the list seemed endless.Then the real work began. Once classes were underway, I found myself volunteering to d

21、o oral presentations and assignments first, rather than last. This method proved to be very helpful.Once I had finished class for the week, I had an ever-increasing list of museums to visit, neighborhoods to explore, and cafs to sit in. Read books about Paris. Talk to locals and other foreigners liv

22、ing there. But the one thing that reading a book or talking to someone cannot do is to provide you with the experience of wandering Paris on foot. The people watching, the sounds of the city, the colors as the seasons change, they all add to the ecstasy that I experience in Paris as an exchange stud

23、ent.After spending five months wandering through the charming neighborhoods, I fell in love with the atmosphere that came out from every open door, and with every spoken word. There is something comforting about walking to the market each Sunday to enjoy the beautiful display of fruits, vegetables a

24、nd dairy products. There is warmth in saying bonjour to the passers-by.On my last day in Paris, I confidently said, “Bonjour Monsieur,” as I passed the little store down the street. I guess the best part about going on exchange in Paris is falling in love with the city in your own way. And I know mi

30、from home suing their phones.The TIS service is available 365 days a year, and it could sometimes take him an hour to get through the local news items he had chosen. “It doesnt take much effort, but it does take a commitment because people are relying on it.” He said.The service had struggled for so

31、me time with volunteers because not many people knew about it. Swallow said, “It was fulfilling to know that people were benefiting from what he was doing.”For Blind Foundation social function organiser Liz Anstice, the opportunity to give back to a foundation that had given much to her, was a nice

32、aspect of the role. She has been involved with the foundation for five years after she became visually impaired. She said the biggest challenge was building the trust that people had in the local branch of the foundation.Anstice reformed the social committee group and changed things so people did no
