However, since Baggy stands at about the same height as a child in a pushchai（r 婴儿车）, shefrequently re

26、cords pollution levels which are much higher than the data gathered by theEnvironment A gency.The doggy data research was the idea of Baggys 13-vea-old owner Tom Hunt and his dadMatt. The English youngster noticed that pollution levels are around two-thirds higher close to theground than they are in

27、 the air at the height where they are recorded by the agency.

32、scribe Tom Hunt?（A. Modest. B. Generous. C. Creative.）D. Outgoing.CFor the past five years, Paula Smith, a historian of science, has devoted herself to re-creatinglong-forgotten techniques. While doing research for her new book, she came across a 16th-centuryFrench manuscript（手稿）consisting of nearly

33、 1,000 sets of instructions, covering subjects fromtool making to finding the best sand.The authors intention remains as mysterious（神秘）as his name; he may have been simplytaking notes for his own records. But Smith was struck mainly by the fact that she didnt trulygrasp any of the skills the author

34、described. You simply cant get an understanding of thathandwork by reading about it, she says.Though Smith did get her hands on the best sand, doing things the old-fashioned way isnt1 just about playing around with French mud. Reconstructing the work of the craftsmen（工匠）wholived centuries ago can re

35、veal how they viewed the world, what objects filled their homes, andwhat went on in the workshops that produced them. It can even help solve present-day problems:In 2015, scientists discovered that a 10th-century English medicine for eve problems could kill adrug-resistant virus.The work has also br

36、ought insights for museums, Smith says. One must know how on objectwas made in order to preserve it. Whats more, reconstructions might be the only way to knowwhat treasures looked like before time wore them down. Scholars have seen this idea in practicewith ancient Greek and Roman statues. These scu

37、lptures were painted a rainbow of strikingcolours. We cant appreciate these kinds of details without seeing works of art as they originallyappeared-something Smith believes you can do only when you have a road map.Smith has put the manuscripts ideas into practice. Her final goal is to link the world

38、s of artand science back together: She believes that bringing the old recipes to life can help develop akind of learning that highlights experimentation, teamwork, and problem solving.Back when sciencethen called “the new philosophy”took shape, academics looked tocraftsmen for help in understanding

39、the natural world. Microscopes and telescopes were inventedby way of artistic tinkering（修补）, as craftsmen experimented with glass to better bend light.If we can rediscover the values of hands-on experience and craftwork, Smith says,marry the best of our modern insights with the handiness of our ance

43、xample, algorithms（算法）carryout huge volumes of trading on our financial markets, self-driving cars are appearing on citystreets, and our smartphones are translating from one language into another. These systems aresometimes faster and more perceptive than we humans are. But so far that is only true

44、for thespecific tasks for which the systems have been designed. That is something that some A Idevelopers are now eager to change.Some of todays AI pioneers want to move on from todays world of “weak” or “narrow” AI,to create “strong” or “full” AI, or what is often called artificial general intellig

45、ence （A GI）. Insome respects, todays powerful computing machines already make our brains look weak. A GIcould, its advocates say, work for us around the clock, and drawing on all available data, couldsuggest solutions to many problems. DM, a company focused on the development of A GI, has anambition

46、 to “solve intelligence”. “If were successful,” their mission statement reads, “we believethis will be one of the most important and widely beneficial scientific advances ever made.”Since the early days of AI, imagination has outpaced what is possible or even probable. In1965, an imaginative mathema

47、tician called Irving Good predicted the eventual creation of anultra-intelligent machinethat can far surpass all the intellectua（l 智力的）activities of any man,however clever. Good went on to suggest that “the first ultra-intelligent machine could be “thelast invention that man need ever make.Fears about the appearance of bad, powerful, man-made inte
