Last Sunday, I went on a hike with one of my best friend, Kevin. I got up early that morning and prepare lots of food in my lunchbox and then I went Kevin’s home to pick him up. On the way to the mountain, we enjoyed at seeing many beautiful flowers along the road. After we arrived at the mountain, all of us couldn’t help admire the natural scenery. Then he advised that we had a race between us, what made me excited too. But I agreed immediately. In a hurry, Kevin tripped on a stone and fell all the way down. Fortunate, he got stuck on a tree and I pulled him up at last. What a day!

Robots and humans will soon be living in harmony(和睦).A singing robot is being taught to create jazz with a human in a project.
Antonio Chella from Italy is working with a Telenoid robot. To start with, the Telenoid will be trained to follow the movements and simple sounds made by a human singer, and to connect music with different emotional states. Chella then plans to see if the robot can use these connections to create music.
Intelligence is often regarded as the ability to find connections between the existing things. But Chella suggests that a conscious(有意识的) creature should be able to go a step further and introduce new connections that result in the creation of something new.
Some jazz musicians say that they should have a mental library of musical phrases so that they are able to combine them in new ways. More importantly, however, this combination happens in a state that is similar in a sense to dreaming. Chella wants to copy these states in a machine.
“This work raises interesting questions about the link between consciousness and music making,” says Philippe Pasquier, a musician and computer scientist. But he is skeptical about whether a robot musician needs a physical body.
Pasquier argues that the robots are faced with two challenges(挑战). Software that can copy Bach has already been developed. But interpretation（演绎）includes human’s different tastes and judgments. “What made the Beatles famous was not so much their works, but the fact that the interpretations of the works were wonderful,” he says.
It is not yet clear how a robot would go about interpreting music in a new way. But by copying humans and then learning to sing, Chella’s robot could provide clues.
What seems to be important is that human composers often listen to lots of music made by others. So Chella’s robot had better listen to those jazz standards first.
1.Which of the following is the robot’s first step before it tries to create jazz?
A. Living with human beings in harmony.
B. Connecting actions with human’s emotions.
C. Copying a human singer’s movements and sounds.
D. Learning to communicate with human beings freely.
2.The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 5 could be replaced by .
A. doubtful. B. worried.
C. certain. D. concerned.
3.What can we know about the robots like Telenoid from the text?
A. They are household robots. B. They can talk with researchers.
C. They are faced with two challenges. D. They will become human singers.
4.What can be concluded from the text?
A. Chella’s robot needs a physical body to make music.
B. How to interpret jazz is a piece of cake for Chella’s robot.
C. A new kind of software should be developed to copy Bach.
D. Chella’s robot should listen to much jazz to create something new.
