11、n human-like bots, developed a robotic walking partner that could make small talk based on its surroundings, which, he hopes, might motivate people to get out and exercise more. The bot rests on a persons shoulder like a boxy parrot. It weighs about a pound and a half and sits roughly 8.5 inches hig
12、h, 3.5inches wide, and 10 inches long. A microphone, speaker, and internal camera allow it to communicate. Its even equipped with a smile.

13、ach location. Then they programmed the robot to associate visual cues with specific topics. A special speech software provided the robot with a voice.

14、eers, 10 males and 5 females, who were paid and averaged about 26 years old. “Have you ever blown a puff of dandelion(蒲 公英) seeds into the air?“ The robot asked a participant, who smiled and responded, “Yes, I often did that when I was a child.“ Although several participants noted the robots weight,

16、on, about which Kanda is most worried. Despite its limits, Kanda was comforted by the bots presence. “I felt a kind of sense of being with someone, “he said, “particularly when it spoke.“ 1.

20、(负效的) . Telling kids theyre smart strengthens the idea that intelligence is a genetic gift rather than a skill that can be developed. In a recent study, researchers at Michigan State University looked at 123 children who were about 7. The team assessed the children to determine whether they had a “g
21、rowth mindset(思维模式) “ (believing that you can work harder to get smarter), or a “fixed mindset“(believing that your intelligence is unable to change).

Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with a “growth mindset“ were much more likely to have a larger brain response after making a mista
