Talking t yurself isn’t just fr humans—it’s fr rbts t.
Italian researchers have develped a rbt that can speak t itself, which enables users t hear its thught prcess (思考过程) and knw hw the rbt make decisins.
“If yu were able t hear what the rbts are thinking, the rbts might be mre trustwrthy (可信赖的),” ne f the researchers Antni Chella says. “The rbts will be easier t understand fr peple wh aren’t engineers. In ther wrds, we can cmmunicate and wrk with the rbts better.”
Peple talk t themselves when lking fr clarity and mral (清晰的思维及道德方面的) guidance, and it helps in the decisin-making prcess. The researchers set ut t see hw this culd influence (影响) rbts, s they develped ne called Pepper, and they trained it t set a table. They then gave it the ability t say, in simple English, what it was “thinking” when cmpleting a jb.
After studying the rbt, the researchers fund that Pepper was better at slving dilemmas (进退两难的困境) when talking t itself. One experiment (实验) saw a user ask Pepper t break table setting rules by putting a frk in the wrng place, which led t the rbt asking itself several self-directed questins. It then decided that the user might be wrng, s it made sure the user didn’t give the wrng rder befre it went n talking t itself: “Emm, this situatin is difficult t me. I wuld never break the rules, but I can’t make him unhappy either, s I’m ding what he wants,” Pepper said while putting the frk in the wrng place. The user can understand Pepper’s thughts as it uses its inner vice t slve a dilemma, which the researchers say culd lead t human-rbt trust.
Cmparing Pepper’s perfrmance (表现) with and withut inner speech, Chella discvered that the rbt wrked faster with inner speech, which means when it was talking t itself. “Peple were very surprised by the rbt’s ability,” Chella says. “The research makes the rbt different frm ther machines because it has the ability t reasn, t think. Inner speech culd be useful in all the situatins where we trust the cmputer r a rbt fr evaluatin f a situatin.”
Althugh hearing the inner vice f rbts enriches the human-rbt interactin, sme peple might find it inefficient because the rbt spends mre time cmpleting jbs when it talks t itself. The rbt’s inner speech is als just the knwledge that researchers gave it. Still, Chella says their research lays the grundwrk fr mre research int hw self-dialgue can help rbts pay attentin, plan and learn.
27．Accrding t the passage, Pepper can _______.
A．talk t itselfB．read users’ minds
C．teach table setting rulesD．start a training task
28．What can we learn frm the research?
A．Inner speech helps the rbt finish tasks better.
B．The research can help peple understand rbts’ actins.
C．The Italian researchers created a new language fr rbts.
D．The rbt helped study peple’s decisin-making prcess.
29．What des the underlined wrd “inefficient” mean?
A．Nt interesting.B．Nt imprtant.C．Nt useful.D．Nt gd r enugh.
30．Which f the fllwing wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A．Rbts: Learn t Learn
B．Rbts: Think Out Lud
C．Rbts: Make Better Speeches
D．Rbts: Always Trust Humans
