Rats and other animals need to be highly at tuned to social signals from others so that can identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to avoid.To find out if this extends to non-living beings,Loleh Quinn at the University of California,San Diego,and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals form robotic rats.They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat-one social and one asocial一for 5 our days.The robots rats were quite minimalist,resembling a chunkier version of a computer mouse with wheels-to move around and colorful markings.During the experiment,the social robot rat followed the living rats around,played with the same toys,and opened caged doors to let trapped rats escape.Meanwhile,the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards and side to side Next,the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a lever.Across 18 trials each,the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social robot free than the asocial one.This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being.They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviours like communal exploring and playing.This could lead to the rats better remembering having freed it earlier,and wanting the robot to return the favour when they get trapped,says Quinn.The readiness of the rats to befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design.The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels.“We'd assumed we'd have to give it a moving head and tail,facial features,and put a scene on it to make it smell like a real rat,but that wasn’t necessary,”says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia,who helped with the research.The finding shows how sensitive rats are to social cues,even when they come from basic robots.Similarly,children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings,even when they display only simple social signals.“We humans seem to be fascinated by robots,and it turns out other animals are too,”says Wiles.What did the social robot do during the experiment?A.It followed the social robot.B.It played with some toys.C.It set the trapped rats free.D.It moved around alone.

共用题干第三篇Why So Risky in Chemical FactoriesWhich is safer一staying at home,traveling to work on public transport,or working in the office?Surprisingly,each of these carries the same risk,which is very low. However,what about flying compared to working in the chemical industry?Unfortunately,the former is 65 times riskier than the latter!In fact,the accident rate of workers in the chemical industry is less than that of almost any of human activity,and almost as safe as staying at home.The trouble with the chemical industry is that when things go wrong they often cause death to those living nearby.It is this which makes chemical accidents so newsworthy.Fortunately,they are extremely rare.The most famous ones happened at Texas City(1947),Flixborough(1974),Seveso (1976),Pemex(1984)and Bhopal(1984).Some of these are always in the minds of the people even though the loss of life was small.No one died at Seveso,and only 28 workers at Flixborough.The worst accident of all was Bhopal,where up to 3,000 were killed.The Texas City explosion of fertilizer killed 552.The Pemex fire at a storage plant for natural gas in the suburbs of Mexico City took 542 lives,just a month before the unfortunate event at Bhopal.Some experts have discussed these accidents and used each accident to illustrate a particular danger. Thus the Texas City explosion was caused by tons of ammonium nitrate(硝酸铵),which is safe unless stored in great quantity.The Flixborough fireball was the fault of management,which took risks to keep production going during essential repairs.The Seveso accident shows what happens if the local authorities lack knowledge of the danger on their doorstep.When the poisonous gas drifted over the town,local leaders were incapable of taking effective action.The Pemex fire was made worse by an overloaded site in an overcrowded suburb.The fire set off a chain reaction of exploding storage tanks.Yet,by a miracle,the two largest tanks did not explode.Had these caught fire,then 3,000 strong rescue team and fire fighters would all have died.Which of the following statements is true?A:Working at the office is safer than staying at home.B:Travelling to work on public transport is safer than working at the office.C:Staying at home is safer than working in the chemical industry.D:Working in the chemical industry is safer than traveling by air.

单选题A pharmaceutical company tested a new painkiller on 1,000 lab rats that were fed large doses of the painkiller for a two-month period. By the end of the experiment, 39 of the rats had died. The company concluded that the painkiller was sufficiently safe to test on humans. Which of the following, if true, provides the most support for the pharmaceutical company’s conclusion?AThe amount of painkiller fed to the rats was substantially greater, in relation to body mass, than the dosage any human would take under normal circumstances.BBecause of the different body chemistry of humans and rats, some compounds can be dangerous for rats but safe for humans, and vice versa.CTests of this same painkiller on dogs showed that 3 out of 50 dogs developed lesions on their livers during the course of the experiment.DThe researchers found that during the experiment, the rats showed a significantly lower sensitivity to pain than rats do under normal circumstances.EIn an experiment of this length with this number of rats, it is not unusual for up to 50 rats to die during the experiment for reasons unrelated to the experiment itself.
