The British artist Dominic Wilcox has created a pair of shoes, which can lead you home no matter where you are in the world. He thought about the fairy tale The Wizard of Oz and how Dorothy could click her shoes to go home. So he decided to make a pair of shoes that could take you home with a click of heels. The shoes can point the way with GPS and clever LEDs(发光二极管).Wilcox worked with another artist and a shoemaker to produce what he calls the “No Place Like Home” shoes.

One of the “No Place Like Home” shoes has a GPS unit inside the heel of the left shoe. It communicates wirelessly(无线方式)with the right shoe and provides data to the LED lights. The LEDs on the left toe point the person in the right direction while those on the right toe show how much of the journey still remains.

It may be an art project. There’s only one pair, but it’s not hard to imagine a similar, more everyday pair of shoes for children, old people or those who always lose their ways in the future.

Now, this pair of shoes are on show in London.

Mr. Henry, the director of UAS, believes that his company will develop the clever robots for using in industry. By this time they will begin to sell the machines into ordinary homes.

Robots can do much housework, such as washing dishes, cleaning the house and cooking meals. ②By the way, the price of them may be as little as＄1,000.

But Dr. Sandra believes we have a long way to develop truly intelligent (真正智能化的) machines. She says, it can cook an egg. But if one of eggs is bad, it will still cook. If you ask a robot to do something unusual that needs a man to think, a robot is useless.

It is reported that in the near future robots and humans will probably work together to create jazz. A singing robot is being taught to create jazz with human being in a project.

Antonio Chella from Italy is working with a Telenoid robot. To start with， the Telenoid will be trained to imitate the movements and simple sounds made by a human singer， and then connect music with different human emotions.

Previous(以前的) robots had the ability to find common connections between things. But Chella suggests that a conscious(有意识的) robot should be able to go a step further and find new connections. The Telenoid is of this kind.

“This work raises interesting questions about the connection between consciousness and music creating.” says Philippe Pasquier， a musician needs a physical body.

Pasquer argues that the robot musician is faced with a big challenge. “Its software has already been developed and it can imitate The Beatles， a famous band. However， what made The Beatles famous were not only their songs but their wonderful performance of the songs，” he says.

It is not clear how a robot would perform music a new way. But by imitating humans， the Telenoid robot could provide some useful information. What is important is that human musicians often listen to and compare music made by others for a long time before creating music of their own. So the Telenoid robot had better listen to more jazz music first.

1.What’s the possible meaning of the underlined “imitate”?

A.制造　　　　　 B.编曲　　　　 C.模仿　　　 D.发出声响

2.What will the Telenoid robot be taught to do first?

A. Communicate with human beings

B. Connect music with human emotions

C. Live and work comfortably with human beings

D. Imitate the movements and simple sounds of a human singer

3.In Pasquier’s opinion， the Telenoid robot_________

A. will replace human musicians soon.

B. may have trouble performing music.

C. will become more popular than The Beatles.

D. can find connections between things that humans cannot find

4.Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?

A. The Telenoid， future robot musician.

B. How to teach robots to perform music.

C. The right music the robots should listen to.

D. Differences between a human singer and a robot musician.

5.In which part of a newspaper do we most probably read this passage?

A. Arts　　　　　 B. Entertainment

C. Medicine　 　 D. Science
