24、It’s the weekend, and you decide to visit to your grandma who lives alone. When you arrive, however, you realize that she has another visitor, and you hear through the door the two of them laughing. You walk in and find that the visitor, sitting across the dining table from your grandma, is a robot. It’s laughing at your grandma’s joke.

Such a robot is something that a team of scientists at Kyoto University in Japan are working toward. They are teaching a robot named Erica how to laugh while talking to a human.

“We think that one of the important abilities of robots is empathy” said Dr. Koji Inoue, the leader of the team. So we decided that one way a robot can empathize with users is to share their laughter.

Erica’s development began with recording different human laughter. The scientists recorded more than 80 conversations. Then they studied the conversations and put the laughter in these conversations into different groups. Next, they trained Erica to learn the characteristics of each group of laughter in order to show them correctly in different situations.

Although the scientists have made some encouraging progress, they said that we are not able to have a natural talk with Erica as we have with a friend now. But then wait a few years, and you may find your own self at that dining table, telling jokes to a robot named Erica.

27、After coming to America, the use of “yes” and “no” brings me a lot of trouble, because the use in Korea (韩语) is a different from that in English. For example, if I am asked, “Haven’t you had dinner yet?” and I have not had dinner yet, then in Korean I usually say “Yes, I haven’t.” But in English, I have to say, “No, I haven’t.”

Because of this, my friends often get the opposite meaning from what I want to give them. One day only a month after I came to America, I had dinner with an American student, Bob. He asked me some questions and I answered them sincerely. A few days later, I found some roommates thought that I came from North Korea. One day I stopped by Bob’s room and asked why he was spreading the wrong information. “Oh, you told me that. Don’t you remember?” he said, “When I asked you ‘You are not from North Korea, are you?’ you clearly answered, ‘Yes, of course.’ Didn’t it mean that you are from North Korea?”

The different use also causes problems between my friends and me. One weekend night, my roommate Mark brought his children into the dorm(宿舍). They made some noise while playing. I didn’t mind the noise since I was just watching TV. The next morning, I met Mark. He asked me with a smile, “Didn’t my children make noise last night? Didn’t it make you uncomfortable?” Because I did not mind the noise at all, I clearly said “Yes!” The smile suddenly disappeared from Mark’s face, and he said, “I am sorry about that. They are going right now. See you later.” I could not understand what he was sorry about, and I just said, “OK. Bye!” After a moment of thinking, I realized how stupid I was. That evening, I explained to Mark and said sorry to him. I knew he thought that I had been very rude.

Now to deal with this problem, I have set simple rules: First, take a five-second break if I am not sure of “yes” or “no”. Second, use “pardon me”, so the person may explain to me in a direct way.

【1】From the passage, we can infer (推断) that the writer comes from ________.

A．North Korea

B．America

C．South Korea

D．China

【2】In Paragraph 3, when the writer answered “Yes”, Mark might think the writer was ________.

A．rude

B．kind

C．helpful

D．polite

【3】If the writer is not sure of “yes” or “no” next time, he will say ________.

A．“pardon me”

B．“yes”

C．“no”

D．“I don’t know”

【4】The writer writes the passage mainly to remind us ________.

A．to work hard on English

B．to learn to respect others

C．never to use “yes” or “no”

D．to know culture differences

28、

Once a man and his wife worked for a businessman. There was a big box in the businessman’s living room. The businessman pointed at the box and said, “There’s only one thing you mustn’t do. Don’t open the box.” 【1】 saying this, he left the living room.

The woman said to his husband, “There must be something expensive in the box. Let’s open it,【2】 we?” Her husband 【3】 with her.

The woman didn’t give up her idea. One day, she decided to find out 【4】 was in it. Her husband didn’t stop her. She opened the box and looked inside. She found 【5】 in the box and tried hard to close it 【6】 she failed.

That evening the businessman came back home and found the box was open. He was very 【7】 and asked the woman and her husband to leave his home.

“But there was nothing in the box,” the woman said. “We 【8】 taken anything at all. The businessman shouted at them, “The box is not important. 1 can’t believe in you. That’s important.”
