More than 200 organizations are preparing to bring their teams of robots to RoboCup 2003 next month in Padua, Italy, an event where researchers test out the latest artificial intelligence techniques in games of football or rescue simulations.
Event organizers said last week that 183 teams from around the world, mostly from universities, have registered for rescue simulation competitions and various leagues of foot ball, while another 80 groups are to show off robots aimed at children. The event is expecting more than 50,000 visitors. While RoboCup has its lighter side, it is one of the most prominent events in the world for both artificial-intelligence researchers and for companies such as Honda and Sony wishing to show off their latest robotics technology.
In recent years, advances in robotics and computer technology have led to renewed interest in robots. Several companies have produced humanoid robots capable of walking on two legs, even up stairs or across uneven surfaces, while Sony has virtually single-handedly created a consumer-robot market with its Aibo dog, released in 1999.
Robot technologies such as vision and mobility systems have also made their way into the broader world of IT. Hewlett-Packard is even testing robots that could attend meetings in place of a human, in order to cut down on business travel.
Ahead of RoboCup, another European university has signed up to integrate its Aibo robots into their research curriculum. RoboCup's "four-legged league" uses Aibo robots, while the "humanoid league" pits two-legged robots such as Honda's AMmo against one another. The event says its ultimate goal is to develop a team of fully autonomous robots by the year 2050 that can win against .the human world soccer champion team.
According to the text, the purpose of RohoCup is______.
A.create a world ruled by robots
B.eliminate the need for human athletes
C.test out artificial intelligence technology
D.for scientists to get together and have a good time

If you want stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most our brains are not getting enough exercises—and as a result, we are ageing unnecessarily soon.
Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of ageing could be slowed down.
With a team a colleague (同事) at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations.
" Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise (精确的) measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect (智能) and emotion, and determine the human character. " The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional facilities.
Contraction of front and side parts—as cells die off—was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty- and seventy-year-olds.
Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age—using the head.
The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm workers, bus drivers and shop assistants.
Matsuzawa's findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. "The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain, " he says, "Think hard and engage in conversation. Don't rely on pocket calculators.
The team of doctors wanted to find out______.
A.how to make people live longer
B.the size of certain people's brains
C.which people are most intelligent
D.why certain people age sooner than others

Research findings from Norwegian and Danish scientists released in late 1997 indicate that the world's reindeer are "hot" — radioactive — and are contaminating their owners and minders.
The radiation comes as a result of the 500 atomic bomb tests carried out in the atmosphere by the nuclear nations in the 1950s and 1960s. Long-lived isotopes in the fall-out have built up in Arctic lichens which are the reindeer's staple diet. The reindeer have been found to concentrate the isotopes in their bodies. Animals are affected all over the Arctic, with the most radioactive reindeer in Canada, Alaska and Siberia's Taimyr Peninsula.
Enormous amounts of reindeer meat — some 14,000 tonnes — are eaten in the Arctic each year. Research at the Danish Riso National Laboratory has found that reindeer herders, who consume a lot of the meat, take in 300 times more radiation each year than is the average anywhere in northern Europe. Norway's Radiation Protection Authority estimates that many hundreds of herders have died of cancer as a result.
Meanwhile reindeer are emerging as one of the greatest environmental threats to the Norwegian Arctic. Over-grazing and trampling is causing more damage to the fragile tundra than pollutants from the world's worst-offending factories. Over the last 40 years the number of reindeer in the Norwegian Arctic have doubled, reaching 20 animals per square kilometre, a very high density. Research by the Norwegian and Danish geological surveys and Russia's Kola Science Centre have found that 75 percent of the moss in the Norwegian Arctic and 85 percent of lichen have been "severely damaged" by reindeer. Three-quarters of the area is suffering from soil erosion. By contrast, two of the world's most polluting factories---nickel smelters in Russia's Kola peninsula — have about 10 percent of the moss and 14 percent of the lichen in the area.
Even the Saami people, who own most of the reindeer, admit that the animals may be causing problems. Lars-Ander Baer, vice-president of their council, admitted to a conference on the Arctic environment recently: "We simply don't know how many reindeer the northern part of Norway can take."
Which of the following is NOT a cause of the problem under discussion?
A.Over-grazing.
B.Radioactive contamination.
C.Poaching.
D.Trampling.
