Chinese researchers have developed a robot designed to help doctors treat the new coronavirus (新冠病毒) and other highly contagious diseases.

The robot can perform some of the same medical examination tasks as doctors. For example, the device can perform ultrasounds, collect fluid samples from a person's mouth and listen to sounds made by a patient’s organs. Cameras record the robot’s activities, which are controlled remotely so doctors can avoid coming in close contact with infected patients. Doctors and other medical workers can operate the machine from a nearby room, or from much farther away.

The robot's main designer is Zheng Gangtie, an engineer and professor at China’s Tsinghua University in Beijing. “Doctors are all very brave,” Zheng said. “But this virus is just too contagious…We can use robots to perform the most dangerous tasks.” Zheng said a friend of his, the head of Beijing’s Tsinghua Changgung Hospital, told him that one of the biggest problems in dealing with COVID-19 was that health care workers treating patients were getting infected themselves. Zheng said he wanted to do something to help this situation. So the engineer gathered a team and went to work on the robotic device. Zheng said the team was able to convert two robotic arms. The devices use the same technology that is used for space equipment, including moon explorers. The new robot is almost completely automated, Zheng said. It can even disinfect itself after performing actions involving patient contact. However, Zheng said he had heard from some doctors that it would be better not to build such robots to be fully automatic. This is because many patients still desire a personal presence to help calm them during treatment.

The team currently has two robots and both have been tested by doctors at hospitals in Beijing. One machine was taken to Wuhan’s Union Hospital, where doctors were being trained to use it. The plan is to use the robot to help treat coronavirus patients, along with assistance from nurses and other hospital workers.

Zheng would like to build more of the robots, but said money from the university has run out. About $72,000 has been spent on each robot. He said he does not plan to commercialize the design, but hopes that a company can begin that process.

1.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A.The robot can record doctors’ activities.

B.The robot can carry out actions automatically.

C.The robot can assist doctors to examine patients.

D.The robot can collect samples of patients’ organs.

2.The underlined word “disinfect” in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to

A.affect B.clean

C.update D.fix

3.What can we infer about the robot according to Zheng Gangtie?

A.It is very costly to make.

B.It is highly recognized by doctors.

C.It can be purchased in the market soon.

D.It can also be used in moon exploration.

4.What is the main purpose of the text?

A.To introduce a new type of medical robot.

B.To provide guidance on treating COVID-19.

C.To describe the current condition of COVID-19.

D.To promote the commercialization of a new robot.

It is not unusual for universities to create a range of new courses each semester. A recently-launched course at Fudan University has become a hit both on and off campus.

Just how popular is it? In the first round of course selection, more than 1,000 students chose the course, Breaking Myths (似是而非). Only 258 were lucky enough to get seats in the classroom.

The course, titled with a Chinese phrase meaning “apparently right, but actually wrong”, aims to discuss the differences between science and pseudoscience (伪科学) in different subject areas.

Pseudoscience includes beliefs, theories or practices that are considered scientific but which actually have no supporting data.

Scientists around the world worry about its influence on people. To help young people tell the two apart, Fudan University launched the new course. It brings together 12 professors from fields including literature, science and medicine, with a total of 17 subjects to be discussed.

These topics include the probable risks of vaccination; whether genes are our destiny (宿命); and whether mobile phone radiation is harmful. The aim of the course, according to the university, is to remove prejudices and provide new ways of thinking.

Speaking to China Youth Daily, Fudan University undergraduate Jiang Xinyi said, “In the era of prevalent (盛行的) fake news, both my classmates and I hope to enhance our judgment through this course.

Lou Hongwei, one of the course lecturers, said, pseudoscience attempts to claim the credibility of real sciences without the research findings to support its claims. He explained one such math fallacy (谬误): “Should people prefer community health centers to a comprehensive Grade A hospital if data shows a lower death rate at the former?” Some people do. But according to Lou, hospitals deal with more deadly conditions, so more deaths can be expected there.

Such logical fallacies are widespread, hard to resist but actually unreasonable, he concluded.

Fudan is not the first university to offer such a course. Many other universities around the world also teach skepticism of pseudoscience. As part of its philosophy (哲学) degree, the University of St Andrews, in Scotland, offers a course called “Scientific Thinking”. In the United States, the University of Nebraska Omaha offers a Science and Critical Thinking course as part of its natural science degree.

Like Fudan University, they examine popular pseudoscientific subjects including ghosts, psychics (通灵) and space aliens. They also focus on distinctions between science and non-science, errors in reasoning and critical thinking.

1.Why did Fudan University offer students the new course?

A.To get more students interested in science.

B.To help students develop scientific thinking.

C.To broaden students’ science knowledge.

D.To promote more teacher-student interaction.

2.Why did the author quote Lou Hongwei’s words in Paragraph 8?

A.To show the best way to identify fallacies.

B.To describe the features of the new course.

C.To show how pseudoscience can be hard to distinguish.

D.To explain the differences between science and pseudoscience.

3.What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?

A.Many universities offer similar courses to Fudan’s new one.

B.Scepticism of pseudoscience has become the recent focus of attention.

C.Popular pseudoscientific topics were specially chosen for philosophy majors.

D.The ability of reasoning is highly valued in various courses.

Scientists have developed a new type of smart bandage (绷带) that can signal the type of bacterial (细菌的) infection it’s protecting, just like a traffic light, as well as release the right type of drugs on demand. The traffic light system works just like this: Green means no bacteria or a low concentration of bacteria, yellow means drug-sensitive (DS) bacteria responsive to standard antibiotics (抗生素) and causes antibiotic release, and red means drug-resistant (DR) bacteria that need extra help to be wiped out.

In testing the bandage on mice, the research team was able to successfully treat both DS and DR infections using the new method. However, the common methods of sensing resistance are limited by time, the requirement for professional personnel, and expensive instruments. Moreover, the abuse of antibiotics causes the accelerated process of bacterial resistance.

It’s easy to see how a simple bandage and light could overcome some of these limitations. Treatment doesn’t have to wait for a doctor to make a diagnosis, and the bandage can get the right sort of drugs applied at the earliest opportunity. What’s more, the person wearing the bandage gets real-time feedback on what’s happening with the infection, if there’s an infection at all. The researchers say it offers numerous benefits over existing treatments that make use of light, including photodynamic therapy or PDT.

We’ve been seeing quite a few upgrades to the traditional bandage in recent years, thanks to advances in science — like the nanofiber mesh that attracts bacteria and draws some of it out, speeding up the healing process. Then there’s the novel bandage for treating burns, which stops bacteria from multiplying and lowers the risk of infection.

The more work that a bandage can do while it’s protecting a wound, the better. Efforts to improve bandages continue and now we've got a bandage that not only releases antibiotics, but also tells the patient exactly what’s going on too.

1.What is the smart bandage mainly designed to do?

A.Avoid the use of antibiotics. B.Clear out harmful bacteria.

C.Detect bacterial infections. D.Increase treatment options.

2.What is the advantage of the smart bandage?

A.It saves much time and cost. B.It removes the risk of infection.

C.It prevents the bacterial resistance. D.It improves doctor-patient relationship.

3.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

A.Traditional bandages are out of use now.

B.More smart bandages will be developed.

C.Progress in science calls for more research.

D.People are urged to study medical science.

4.What does the text focus on?

A.A successful test on mice. B.A colour-changing bandage.

C.Sensing drug-resistant bacteria. D.Preventing abuse of antibiotics.
