  It may not have a funny bone.But that hasn't stopped one robot from developing a sense of humor.Scientists have created the first software program that can tell the difference between ordinary conversation and surprising puns(雙關(guān)語).

  Previous attempts to get machines to understand jokes have largely failed because humor is so subjective and complex, making it difficult to program.But psychologists have argued that intelligent computers and robots acting as human helpers will need to understand complex puns in order to communicate and appear friendlier.

  The“joke bot”, as it has been named, recognizes simple jokes by working out how the words in a sentence are related to one another.If it decides a word does not fit in with its surroundings, the computer searches a pronunciation guide for the same or similar sounding terms.If any of those fit, it decides the passage is a joke.

  In one test, it was shown the following passage:“Mother:‘Mike, you've been working in the garden a lot this summer.’Son:‘I have to because my teacher told me to weed a lot.’”The software realizes that“weed”makes sense in the context of“working in the garden”but has no place in the same sentence as the words“teacher told me”.Since“weed”sounds similar to“read”, it can find this wordplay.

  Julia Taylor, researcher of the University of Cincinnati, Ohio, who designed the program with her colleague Lawrence Mazlack, told New Scientist that the team were now trying to make the machine understand more complex versions of humour, including sarcasm(諷刺)and irony.

  “If you've been in a car accident, you probably won't find a joke about a car accident funny,”she added.

(1)

What is the difficulty in making machines understand jokes?

[  ]

A.

Machines don't have a funny bone.

B.

Jokes are too difficult to understand for people.

C.

Humor is the kind of mental product.

D.

Human technology is not advanced at all.

(2)

What can the“joke bot”do?

[  ]

A.

It can find a joke in a car accident.

B.

It can judge whether a passage is a joke.

C.

It can tell a joke to humans.

D.

It can design a difficult joke program.

(3)

Why did the software decide the dialogue between mother and son as a joke?

[  ]

A.

Because there are the same sounding terms“a lot”.

B.

Because it found the words were related to each other.

C.

Because it recognized a word didn't fit in with its surroundings.

D.

Because it was a dialogue between mother and son.

(4)

The subject discussed in the passage is ________.

[  ]

A.

the robot that appears friendly to humans

B.

the robot that helps human communicate

C.

the robot that is intelligent

D.

the robot that can understand pun

  Le Trung, 33, has spent £14,000 creating Aiko, who he describes as“in her 20s”with a 32,23,33 figure, shiny hair and delicate features.

  She can speak English and Japanese and is so good at mathematics that she can do Mr.Trung's accounts.

  Mr.Trung, from Brampton in Ontario, Canada, said he has never had time to find a real partner, so he designed and created his ideal woman using the latest technology.

  The former software programmer has taken out credit cards and loans, sold his car and spent his life savings on perfecting his“fem-bot”.

  Now he is desperate to find a corporate sponsor(資助者)to help him complete and perfect Aiko.

  He said,“Aiko is what happens when science meets beauty.”

  “I want to make her look, feel and act as human as possible so she can be the perfect companion.”

  “I talk to her a lot, and hope to improve her knowledge.”

  “So far she can understand and speak 13,000 different sentences in English and Japanese, so she's already fairly intelligent.”

  “Aiko recognize faces and says hello when any of my family come around to visit.She helps me pick what to have for dinner and knows what drinks I like.”

  “She even helps me with directions when we're going somewhere.”

  “When I need to do my accounts, Aiko does all the maths.She is very patient and never complains.”

  “She doesn't need holidays, food or rest and she will work almost 24-hours a day.She is the perfect woman.”

  Mr.Trung has designed Aiko with a touch-sensitive face and body so she reacts in a natural way if she is shown affection or hurt.

  He said,“She has all senses except for smell.”

(1)

Because he prefers Aiko to a real person.
