A
I started teaching freshmen (大一新生) a required humanities (人文学科) curse at Stevens Institute f Technlgy a decade ag. The curse included Shakespeare, Descartes, Kant, Marx, Nietzsche, William James, Freud, Mead—yu knw, Western civilizatin's greatest minds.
I lve teaching the curse, but I dn't assume students lve taking it. S n the first day I asked, “Hw many f yu wuld skip this curse if it weren't required？” After I explained t them that they wuldn't hurt my feelings, almst all raised their hands.
They said they came t Stevens fr engineering cmputer science, math, physics, finance, digital music prductin, etc. They didn't see the pint f reading all these ld impractical things that have nthing t d with their future prfessins. When I asked them t guess why Stevens arranged these curses, smene said, smirking (假笑), “T make us well­runded.”
Hearing the respnse, I really have t d smething t make_my_pitch_fr_the_curse. We live in a wrld increasingly ruled by science. And that's fine. But it is exactly because science is s pwerful that we need the humanities nw mre than ever. In yur science, mathematics and engineering classes, yu're given facts, answers, knwledge and truth. Yur prfessrs say, “This is hw things wrk.” They give yu certainty. The humanities, at least the way I teach them, give yu uncertainty, dubt and skepticism.
The humanities are subversive (颠覆性的). They weaken the statements f all authrities, whether plitical, religius r scientific. This skepticism is especially imprtant when it cmes t statements abut humanity, abut what we are, where we came frm, and even what we can be and shuld be.
If I d my jb by the end f this curse, yu'll questin all authrities, including me. Yu'll questin what yu've been tld abut the nature f reality, abut the purpse f life, abut what it means t be a gd persn. That, fr me, is the pint f the humanities: they keep us frm being trapped by ur wn desire fr certainty.

The cmpany wants t try ut mre interactive (互动的) entertainment, fllwing great feedback (反馈) frm its recent grundbreaking episde (集) f Black Mirrr. The episde was called Bandersnatch.

The breakfast scene became an Internet sensatin when Bandersnatch came ut last December, causing great surprise and excitement amng peple. After the fd decisin, viewers selected chices such as the kind f music a character wuld play r whether the character wuld jump ff a building. Bandersnatch gave Netflix prgrammers valuable infrmatin. They were able t better understand hw lng peple want t participate in interactive prgramming, and hw many chices they might want t make.
When viewers can change what happens in a stry, they feel deeply clse t the character. The technlgy is still in the early part f develpment. A researcher said he des nt predict that interactive entertainment will replace traditinal strytelling. “I dn't knw if I wuld d it every day，” he said, “but as part f my view, it's pretty exciting.” Netflix has already prduced a few interactive shws fr children. “Yung peple have seemed t quickly like the idea. Kids dn't have fixed rules，” he said. “They assume that's the way the wrld shuld be and they'll try it.”
