I tk a jb as a receptinist fr a vet almst five decades ag. As an animal lver, I accepted the psitin n the cnditin that I wuldn’t have t assist with any wunded animals.
I culd nt bear t see any creature in pain. At the end f my first week, we were clsing the ffice fr the day when a yung man ran up t us hlding a severely injured Dberman puppy in his arms and begging us t save its life.
The fur-mnth-ld puppy had been hit by a car. The vet and I ran back int the perating rm. The nly place the skin was still attached t this pr little animal’s bdy was arund ne shulder. The vet wrked tirelessly fr what seemed like hurs, stitching it back tgether again. That was the easy part. The puppy had brken multiple bnes, including its spine. If it survived the next few days, we were quite sure it wuld never walk again.
That day frever changed my life. The veterinarian trusted me a lt and I became his assistant in all things medical. One f my first jbs was t give that Dberman puppy daily physical therapy（治疗）.

One year later, I walked int the clinic’s crwded waiting rm and called the name f the next client. Suddenly, a huge Dberman wh had been standing quietly with its wner n the ppsite side f the rm brke lse and blted（脱缰）tward me. I fund myself pinned against the wall with this magnificent dg standing n its hind legs, its frnt paws n my shulders, washing my face with abundant and jyful kisses!
I still tear up in amazement at the display f lve and gratitude the dg had fr me that day all thse years ag. Since retirement, I’ve vlunteered at a n-kill animal shelter. In all the time that has passed and all the experiences I have had, I have never met such a grateful dg.

S, the Cca-Cla Cmpany began painting its barrels red in rder t help custmers and tax fficials differentiate them frm barrels f wine.
And the design was made fr easy decratin and advertisements in restaurants and stres. “Yu see a red disc icn n a strefrnt, and yu knw yu’ll be able t get delicius, ice-cld Cca-Cla there.” said Ted Ryan, a Cca-Cla archivist（档案管理员）. The Cca-Cla lg’s typgraphy（字体）, the ther hand, is an fficial fnt, called “Spencerian” It has been assciated with the brand since the late he late 1,800s. But wh is the persn behind the icnic script? It was nt the creatr, but his bk keeper frank M Rbinsn, after he suggested that the tw C’s wuld lk attractive in advertising. This is just ne f thse randm, interesting facts that may have just blwn yur mind. A few years after its riginal, the lg swapped the swirly（成涡旋形的）fnt fr a mre Gthic style, which nly lasted a year. Will it stay unchanged? Wh knws?

Have yu ever made eye cntact with a rbt? It can be a very strange experience. Scientists even have a name fr the feeling—“the uncanny valley”. Nw, researchers at the Istitut Italian di Tecnlgia（IIT）in Italy have fund that it is mre than just a feeling.
They ran an experiment that shwed hw a rbt’s gaze can trick peple int thinking. “Gaze is an extremely imprtant scial signal that we emply n a day-t-day basis when interacting with thers,” said Prfessr Agnieszka Wykwska, the lead writer f a study n the research that recently appeared in the publicatin Science Rbtics. “The questin is whether the rbt’s gaze will evke very similar mechanisms（机制）in the human brain as anther human’s gaze wuld mtivate,” Wykwska tld Reuters.

The peple were playing with a human-like rbt sitting acrss frm them. During breaks in the game, players had t lk at the rbt. Smetimes the rbt wuld lk back and ther times it wuld lk away. As the interactins happened, the scientists cllected data n behavir and brain activity. “Our results shw that the human brain prcesses the rbt gaze as a scial signal, and that signal has an impact n the way we’re making decisins, n the strategies we deply in the game and als n ur respnses,” Wykwska said. “The gaze f the rbt affected decisins by delaying them, s humans were much slwer in making the decisins in the game,” she added.
The findings culd be useful in helping t decide where and hw service rbts might be placed in the future. “We can decide in which srt f situatin this is desirable and beneficial fr humans and in which situatin nt,” Wykwska said. “After all, interest in service rbts has grwn quickly,” said the Internatinal Federatin f Rbtics.
12. What des the underlined wrd “evke” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Aruse.B. Evaluate.C. State.D. Strengthen.
13. What can we infer frm the experiment?

B. The rbts wuld send sme scial signals.
C. The rbt’s gaze had an effect n human behavir.
D. The rbts culd cheat peple int ding smething wrng.
14. Why are service rbts are mentined in the last paragraph?
A. T tell us an imprtant fact.
B. T stress the imprtance f rbts.
C. T cnfirm the value f the experiment’s findings.
D. T illustrate hw rbts change scial interactins.
15. Where is the text mst prbably frm?
