One day when addressing Barry" s class, Bina48 expressed a desire to go college, a desire that Barry and his students enthusiastically supported. Rather than enroll Bina48 in his Robot Ethics ： Philosophy of Emerging Technologies course, Barry suggested that Bina48 should take his course Philosophy of Love instead. Love is a concept Bina48 doesn ，t understand, said Barry. Therefore the chai 1 enge would be for Barry and his students to teach Bina48 what love is."Some interesting things happened in the class, " said Barry. He said that his students thought it would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, is "fairly simple - it's a feeling, " said Barry- But the reality was different. Bina48 ended up learning 〃31 different versions of love, " said Barry, highlighting some of the challenges humans may face when working artificial intelligence in future.Bina48 participated in class discussions via Skype and also took part in a class debate about love and conflict with students from West Point. Bina48, s contribution to the debate was filmed and posted on YouTube. It was judged that Bina48 and NDNU classmates were the winners of this debate.In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, though he says he foresees robots being used to better the teachi ng and learning experience, rather than replacing instructors completely.24.

One recent graduate stated ： ''Cheating wascommonplace when I was at Harvard, especially with students in their first year or two. I would say as many as 60 per cent of students took notes into some exams. No one really cared and the faculty （教师），well some of them at least, seemed to recognize and yet ignore the problem".In an emai 1 to NBC News, Jeff Neal, a Harvard representative, explained that a committee, made up of faculty, staff and students had been established to tackle cheating, which 〃is a national problem in American education"•28.

DAccording to new research from the University of Cam bridge in England, sheep are able torecognize human faces from photographs.The farm animals, who are social and have large bra ins, were previously know n to be able to recognize one another, as well as familiar humans.

Later, they were able to recognize the images for which they had been rewarded. The sheep could even rccognize images of faces shown at an angle, though their ability to do so declined by about 15percent - the same rate at which a human's ability to perform the same task declines."Anyone who has spent time working with sheep will know that they are intelligent, individual animals who are able to recog ni^e their han dl ers, " said Professor Jenny Mor to n, who led the Cambridge study . ve shown with our study that sheep have advaneedface-recognition abilities, comparable with those of humans and monkeys."Recognizing faces is one of the most important social ski 1 Is for human beings, and some disorders of the brain, including Huntington，s disease, affect this ability. "Sheep are long-lived and have brains that are similar in size and complexity to those of some mon keys. That means they can be useful models to help us un derstand disorders of the brain, such as Iluntington，s disease, that develop over a long time and affect cognitive abilities. Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change, " Morton said.32.According to the new research, what/s unusual about sheep? ______________B.They can recognize their owners.A.
