16、lephants? Connie Allen, a behavioralecologist at the University of Exeter in the U.K., said “the elephants navigate over long distances using their unbelievable memories”, which makes others consider that an elephant will never forget. But its also been suggested here and there that maybe olfhction

17、is extremely important fbr these long-distance movements.Allen and her colleagues checked that idea by testing African elephants5 ability to identify a very special smell: the smell of pee（尿）.You see, an elephant pees a lot - some 12 to 15 gallons a day - and that pee can contain a series of chemica

18、l signals.But first, they needed some pee. So they headed fbr a spot along Botswanas Boteti River and waited. They waited for elephants to pee and, within 20 minutes, went and collected these fresh pee samples. Then they set up cameras on seven paths which the elephants usually walked along. After o

19、bserving the elephants5 natural behavior on the paths, they noticed that the majority of the elephants checked smells along the paths - especially elephants travelling alone, which is an indication, the researchers said, that smells may serve as signposts along the paths.Next, they placed those pee

20、samples along the paths. And they found that fbr at least two days, passing elephants trained their trunks on the samples, especially samples from mature adults, which is another indication that smells might be an effective navigational signal. Their findings appeared in the journal Animal Behavior.

21、Based on these results, they hope conservationists might be able to use elephant pee as a decoy（诱饵）.If we can trick elephants into thinking other elephants are going this way, maybe we can redirect them away from where they are coming into conflict with humans at the moment.8. What does the underlin

25、nt Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, designed a half-meter-high robot called Morti and gave it the ability to teach itself how to walk, rather than to perform apre-programmed step. The four-legged robot took only an hour to learn how to walk steadily, roughly the same amount of time as newborn horses n

26、eed. And its the first time that a machine learning technique has been so successfully applied to fbur-legged robots.Morti is controlled by an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm(算法)that doesnt have much information about the robofs legs, such as the exact shape of each element. The AI, working l

27、ike the central nervous system, gives walking instructions for Morti to follow. It then adjusts them based on readings from foot sensors that signal when the robot falls and loses contact with the ground. Initially, Morti falls down, but after about an hour the AI finds the best way to make it walk

28、J said Ruppert.Because the AI learns rather than calculating details of each legs movement in advance, which can use a lot of energy,Morti walks using 42 percent less energy than when it first starts at the end of an hour-long learning process. Mortis process copies the way baby animals learn to mov

29、e, as they also find the most efficient way to use their muscles by trying and initially tripping.Dhireesha Kudithipudi at The University of Texas at San Antonio said that AI robots can often learn a specific task very well but cant readjust when the environment changes and that Mortis design, which

30、 relies on continually adjusting the robofs movements, may perform better in that regard. Ruppert said he and the team are working on adding more sensors and range of motion to Morti to make it a more animal-like robot.12. What is special about Morti?B. It can learn to walk by itself.D. It can help

31、teach the newborns.B. Its design concept.D. Its working conditions.B. By training Mortis muscles to the best.D. By strengthening Mortis bond with othersB. Concerned.D. Favorable.A. It is pre-programmed to walk.C. It is the first fbur-legged robot.13. Which aspect of Morti is stressed in paragraph 2?

32、A. Its body structure.C. Its learning process.14. How does the Als learning ability benefit Morti?A. By predicting Mortis leg movements.C. By lowering Mortis energy consumption.15. What is Dhireesha Kudithipudis attitude toward Morti?A. Doubtful.C. Subjective.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填
