Somedo very complicated jobs like flying airplanes and

20、driving subway trains. And some do a simple job.When an automatic washing machine is switched on, water pours in. Themachine waits until the water is hot before washing the clothes. It does this by"feedback."Information about whatis happening is "feedback"into the robot to tell i

21、t what to do next.Our eyes , ears and other senses are our feedback . They tell us what isgoing on around us. So robots are like people in two ways. They work and they have feedback.There are robots all around, making our lives easier. Someof them , like the pocket calculator, can work much more qui

22、ckly than human beings can. Andthey rarely make mistakes.In some ways robots are better than people. They work quickly, but do not make mistakes.

23、different jobs. First their electronic brains must be shown how the job is done . A person moves the robot'"arm"and "hand"through each part of the job. The robot's brain remembers each move. When the robot is put to work on its own , its brain controls the rods , wheels a

24、nd motors which move its arm.When the robot is needed for a new job, its electronic memory is "wiped clean."Then it is taught how to do its new task.If the robot's hand stops working, or if something gets in the way, it cannot do the next part of the job. So it stops and signals for he

25、lp. Then a human engineer repairs it.The most ''intelligent''robots can moveand see. Their eyes are cameras.Their metal fingers can feel shapes and even find out how hot and cold objects are . These robots have computer brains ,linked to their eyes and fingers , which control their a

29、ing passage:Tests conducted at the University of Pennsylvania' s PsychologicalLaberatory showed that anger is one of the most difficult emotions to Find out from facialexpressions.Professor Dallas E. Buzby confronted 716 students with pictures of extremely angry persons , and asked them to ident

30、ify the emotion from the facial expression. Only two percent made correct judgments. Anger was most frequently judged as"Fleased".And a typical reaction of a student confronted with the picture of a man who was madwas to classify his expression as either"bewildered" , "quizz

31、ical" or simply"amazed" . Other studies showed that it is extremely difficult to tell whether a man is angry or not just by looking at his face. The investigators found further that women are better at finding out anger from facial expressions than menare. Paradoxically , they found t

32、hat psychological training does not improve one's ability to judge a man' s emotions by his expressions but actually hinders it . For in the university tests ,the more courses the student had taken in psychology , the poorer judgment score he turned in .29. The information in this passage ce

33、nters around.A. the relation between anger and other emotionsB. the differences between men and women with respect to emotionC. the influence of psychology on human emotionsD. the discovery of anger from facial expressions30 . When tested,students with psychological training,A. marked less than two

37、k up at the sky and read the weather forecast right away? Well,you can. The forecast is written in clouds. If you can read that writing, you can tell something about the atmosphere.With somepractice, you can becomea pretty good weather forecaster. Whoknows , you might even do as well as meteorologis

38、ts.Meteorologists use much more information than just the appear. ance of the clouds to make their forecast. They collect data from all over the world. Then they put it into powerful, high - speed computers.This does give meteorologists an advantage , because they can track weather patterns as they

39、move from west to east across the country.But you have an advantage,too. You can look at the sky and get your data directly. A meteorologist uses a computer forecast that's several hours old to make a local forecast .What are you seeing when you look at a cloud?" A picture of what moisture

40、is doing in the atmosphere" says meteorologist Peter Leavit . There's moisture throughout the atmosphere. Most of the time you don't see it , because it's in the form of an invisible gas called water vapor .Sometimes, the temperature of the air gets cold enough to cause the water va

41、por to change to liquid water. That's called condensation , and we see it happen all the time( for example , when humid air from the hower hits the cold glass of a mirror) . When enough water vapor condenses, droplets form in the air. These droplets scatter light. A cloud is seen.Watching clouds

42、 over a day or two tells you a lot more than a single cloud about the weather to come. Changes in clouds show changes in the atmosphere.You should begin to notice patterns. Certain clouds, following each other in order, can singal an approaching storm. But don't take our word for it;see for your

43、self.33 .

47、and conduct their business.Wall Street , although the best known , is not the only homeof ex- changes in the United States. There are cotton exchanges in NewOr- leans and Chicago ',the Mercantile Exchange , which deals in many farm products , in Chicago ',and grain exchanges in many of the l

This art of fishing is said to be at least a thousand years old

57、and is mentioned in Japanese plays. Today , however , fishing in this way has simply become a sport ,or the fishermen are not seriously interested in catching fish .On summer nights the fishing boats set out on rivers in various parts of the country. At the front of each boat there is an iron basket

58、 in which a wood fire kept burning. As the graceful curved boats float past carried along bythe current , these fires, dotted here and there, make bright patterns on the water. Steering down the river, the fishermen beat the sides of the boat to encourage the birds, and people out for an evening is

59、entertainment eithersit or lie on the floor of the boats drink- ing beer and sometimes even cookinga meal for themselves over the flames of the fire. This method of fishingdemands great skill, for the fisherman has to handle three or four birds inone hand. A long piece of string is tied round the neck of each bird and thefisherm
