And after graduation he went straight into the workforce. “I had a lot of jobs,” he says. “But I was losing a lot of my jobs because I left school pretending I was a hearing person.”Antrobus realized that passing as a hearing person

19、wasnt helping him, so he decided to turn to poetry for solace(慰藉). It was a medium hed been dabbling in since he was in school. “My grandfather was a poet, and I think that was part of grounding(入门)me,” he says. “For me, poetry always had a place where I could go to listen or to be heard or to belon

But since writing the book, he has returned to Jamaica and worked with deaf Jamaicans.Growing up, Antrobus recalls, he wasnt taught much about deaf culture or the richness of sign language

21、on top of his late diagnosis so learning about deaf life in Jamaica helped ease some of his fears.“It was never really a thing where I sat down and thought, oh, Im a deaf poet.

Now, a robot has been trained to speak aloud its inner decision-making proc

25、ess, giving us a view of how it prioritizes competing demands.Arianna Pipitone and Antonio Chella at the University of Palermo, Italy, programmed a humanoid robot named Pepper, made by SoftBank Robotics in Japan, with software that models human cognitive processes, as well as a text-to-speech proces

26、sor. This allowed Pepper to voice its decision-making process while completing a task. “With inner speech, we can better understand what the robot wants to do and what its plan is,” says Chella.The software allowed Pepper to retrieve(提取) relevant information from its memory and find the correct way

27、to act based on human commands.The researchers asked Pepper to set a dinner table according to etiquette rules they had encoded into the robot. Inner speech was either enabled or disabled to see how it affected Peppers ability to do what was requested. When instructed to place a napkin on a fork wit

28、h inner speech enabled, Pepper asked itself what the etiquette required and concluded that this request went against the rules it had been given. It then asked the researchers if putting the napkin on the fork was the correct action. When told it was, Pepper said, “OK, I prefer to follow your desire

29、,” and explained how it was going to place the napkin on the fork. When asked to do the same task without voicing the inner speech, Pepper knew this contradicted the etiquette rules, so didnt perform the task or explain why.“With the potential for robots to become more common in the future, this typ

However, this experiment only used a single human pa

What the relationship between humans and robots.DBiofuels(生物燃料), gained from plants and animal matter, are a key so

35、lution to the environmental problems caused by fuels like coal. “Bioalcohol(生物酒精) is the most common biofuel and is produced by sugars found in materials such as corn. With some engine redesigned, it can be used directly by cars, buses, etc.,” says Professor Daniel Tan, “12 percent of transport fuel

36、 could come from biofuels, especially bioalcohol, by 2030.”But a 2016 study of biofuels said, “Bioalcohol presently is mostly produced with food crops. Altogether, the environmentally-friendly biofuels rely on about 2-3 percent of the global water and land used for agriculture, which could feed a la

37、rge number of hungry people.”Energy experts have therefore been trying to deal with the problem. Recent research led by an international team found that the agave(龙舌兰) plant might offer a way out. This plant tends to be the right bioalcohol source to supersede(取代) others such as sugarcane(甘蔗) and co

38、rn.Daniel Tan explains that the agave can be grown in unfavorable conditions and is not a major food crop. “It can grow in areas that lack water and rainfall without being watered by farmers, and it does not compete with food crops or put demands on limited water. This kind of useful plant is recent

39、ly being grown in Australia. It can survive Australias hot summers,” he says.The study finds that sugarcane produces just a little more fuel per square meter each year than the agave. However, the agave outperforms sugarcane in a range of areas, including pollution to the earth, and water using. The

40、 agave uses 69 percent less water than sugarcane and 46 percent less water than corn for the same amount of fuel produced. As for corn, it produces less fuel per square meter each year than the agave. However, Daniel Tan states: “The first generation of bioalcohol from the agave recently faces a big

41、 competition from oil, whose recent low price makes it far more attractive to customers. Without some policy support from the government, bioalcohol production from the agave faces big challenges.”12. What problems did biofuels have according to the study?A. Damaging the land.B. Wasting global water

42、.C. Polluting the environment.D. Causing many people hungry.13. Whats the agaves strength according to Paragraph 4?A. It improves the local weather.B. It keeps the water in the ground.C.
