Researchers from the MIT Media Lab, Boston Children's Hospital, and Northeastern University used a robotic teddy bear, "Huggable", across the Boston Children's Hospital. More than 50 hospitalized children were divided into three groups that involved Huggable, a tablet-based virtual Huggable, or a traditional teddy bear. In general, the robotic Huggable was proved to help bring more positive outcomes over the other two choices.
When first designed, Huggable was operated remotely by a specialist outside a child's room for the moment. Through software, the specialist could control the robot's facial expressions and body actions. The specialist could also talk through a speaker—with his voice automatically changed to a sound more childlike—and monitor the participant via camera.
During the treatments involving Huggable for kids aged 3 to 10 years, a specialist would sing nursery rhymes to younger children through the robotic bear and move the arms during the song. Older kids would play the I-spy game, where they had to guess an object in the room described by the specialist through Huggable. Through self-reports and questionnaires(问卷), the researchers recorded how much the patients and their families liked Huggable. A greater percentage of children and their parents reported that the children enjoyed playing with Huggable more than with the virtual figure or the traditional teddy bear.
The study proved the possibility of including Huggable in the treatments for children. Results also showed that children playing with Huggable experienced more positive emotions overall. They also got out of bed and moved around more, and were emotionally connected with the robot, asking it personal questions and inviting it to come back later to meet their families."Such improved emotional and physical outcomes are all positive factors that could contribute to hospitalized children's better and faster recovery," the researchers wrote in their study.
The study also provided a basis for developing a fully autonomous Huggable robot, which is the researchers' final goal. In the future, that automated robot could be used to improve children's further treatment and care, and monitor their well-being.
1.What can we learn about Huggable?( )
A.It works automatically.
B.It talks like a caring parent.
C.It can make facial expressions.
D.It was first designed for disabled kids.
2.What's the children's attitude towards "Huggable"?( )
A.Favorable. B.Doubtful. C.Disappointed. D.Unclear.
3.How did Huggable help the hospitalized children with their treatment?( )
A.It improved their mental experience.
B.It protected them from possible virus.
C.It gave tips on taking good care of young patients.
D.It provided up-to-date information about their diseases.
4.What is the text mainly about?( )
A.The fast development of robots in medical area.
B.A new technology in medicine to treat children.
C.Robots' advantages over other methods of treatment.
D.A robotic teddy bear used in caring for hospitalized children.

A New Trend of Micro Museums Is Making Science Portable(便携式的)Science museums are amazing. You can see large dinosaur bones from the huge creatures that disappeared thousands of years ago or take a look at cells under a microscope.1.___.
You can learn so much at a science museum if living close enough to one. However, for those who don't live in a city, getting a chance to visit science museums is not easy. "2.___, their influence is limited. There just aren't enough science museums," said Charles Philipp. "And due to the high costs, it's unlikely that we'll be seeing a bunch of new traditional science museums popping up all over the country anytime soon."
Philipp and his partner Amanda Schochet have decided to reinvent science museums by making them small. They founded MICRO, a nonprofit organization that builds tiny 6-foot-tall science museums, which are portable and replicable(可复制的).3.___. They can get access to it for free in such places as waiting rooms of hospitals, libraries, airports, and even shopping malls.
4.___, they made it with the help of a team of engineers, storytellers and designers. Each of the micro museums has a scientific topic. The first museum is the Smallest Mollusk(软体动物) Museum showing the world of mollusks, which has won great popularity as the only museum devoted just to mollusks. The second museum focuses on physics and engineering and will officially open next year. It asks why things move, and why they stop.5.___. Hopefully one will come to a neighborhood near you soon.
A.Science museums are beneficial
B.While the content is vitally important
C.Although it costs nothing to visit museums
D.The plan is to get people of all ages connected with science
E.Even though making the tiny museums a reality wasdifficult
F.Such new museums allow people to explore fun scientifictopics
G.You can also learn to think like an engineer by building a model ship
