16、y Dr Caitlin Kight looked at how bluebirds changed their songs in response to increases in nearby background noise caused by human activities.In the research Dr Kight found that, as background noise increased, male bluebirds produced songs that were louder and lower-pitched. The results suggest that
17、 birds are able to perceive increases in noise and respond accordingly not unlike humans do when in noisy settings.Dr Kight said that the research could help improve our understanding of environmental effects on animal communication, as well as raise our awareness of what sorts of human modification
18、s can impact animals, and how we might be able to reduce any negative effects of these disturbances.Dr Kight said: “Although much humanmade noise is often different from that found in nature, there can be surprising similarities in certain features. Sounds caused by traffic, for example, may not be
19、hugely different from those produced by waterfalls or heavy winds. Animals that evolved in habitats with those natural features may therefore already have the flexibility to respond to noise pollution. This certainly seems to be the case with bluebirds.”Although it has previously been shown that bir
20、ds in noisier areas tend to sing differently than those in quieter surrounds, it was not immediately clear whether birds were able to make vocal adjustments in real timethat is, an immediate shift in response to increased noise made by a passing car, for example.

25、l robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo. While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots wil
26、l be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user. The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different
27、tasks. The robot doesnt just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household.
