What many UGG-enthusiasts dont know is that their boots are a breeding ground for bacteria and cause foot problems.Doctors believe the boots, which are particularly popular
42、 among young teenage girls, are leading to a rise in the number of people suffering pains in their feet and knees.Dr. Ian Drysdale，head of the British College of Osteopathic Medicine，believes because the foot does not get the proper support on the inside，it will lead to more ankle，knee，hip and back
43、problems. “These boots are not designed for outside wear. Just because something becomes a trend or fashionable doesnt mean its good or right，” he said, “The particular problem with this type of footwear is that it is unsupported. Its a slipper.

51、rrels trying to steal from them, they attempt to fool the thieves by running to a fake location.Ronald Arkin and his Ph. D. student Jaeeun Shim used that as a model for robot behavior. They programmed the robot into tricking a “predator (捕食者）” machine by doing what i squirrel does： showing the enemy
52、 a false location for an important resource.The team also looked at how other animals in this case，a species of bird called Arabian babbler drive off predators. A babbler will make an alarm call when they see a predator and other babblers will join the bird and make more calls. They then surround th

The babblers dont ever actually fight the animal they want to drive off； they just make enough noises and flaps around enough so that it seems that attacking a babbler isnt worth itThey found that the deception works when the group reac

Davis modeled that behavior in software using a military scene and found that it worked even if the group didnt have the firepower to confront the enemy directly.The military is interested in th

It could lead an enemy down a fake trail or make itself look more dangerous than it actually is.68.Why does the military want to take advantage of squirrelstrick?A.It can reduce the use of firepower to confront the enemy.B.It can fool
56、the enemy into believing it is more dangerous.C.It can lead the enemy in a wrong direction to avoid losing resources.D.It can scare the enemy away who wants to destroy the acorns.69.Which of the following is NOT the way Arabian babblers drive off predators?A.One bird makes an alarm call and other bi
