A Heart that Keeps BeatingCMountain gorillas (大猩猩) have been caught on camera as they“sing”during their supper,a behavior that has never before been documented on video. Filmmakers shot the astonishing footage of gorillas with the help from a very special camera: a robotic“spy”designed to look like a young gorilla.Creating a realistic robot spy that could fool a gorilla means designing a face that is mobile and expressive, particularly around the eyes. “ Eye communication is very important among gorillas, said“Spy in the Wild producer Matt Gordon.“Youll see in the film the gorillas came straight over to our spy gorilla and looked right into its eyes. So we made sure that the gorilla had the most amount of detail put into the face.”Infiltrating communities of animals that live in groups requires a robot to smell like its animal subjects in order to get close to them, Sometimes animal waste is applied to the robot to allow it to be accepted into the group.One tricky challenge for the gorilla robot is that it has to pass inspection by the chief male.“We wanted to make sure that we were not being threatening,so we avoided the stare of our spy gorilla ,”Gordon said. This display of obedience (顺从) convinced the male that the robot wasnt a danger; he then signaled to the troop that it was safe for them to take a closer look at the stranger.The robot was also able to beat its chest to respond to a baby gorilla s chest- beating, allowing the filmmakers to shoot a rare sight of their playtime. “A young gorilla came over and beat its chest. For a baby gorilla, that meansI want to play ,and if our gorilla was lifeless, not moving, the gorilla would have lost interest. But our spy gorilla was able to beat its chest too,” Gordon said.28. Why was the robotic spy made?A. To record the songs gorillas sang at supper.B. To produce a film called Spy in the Wild.C. To test the spys ability to communicate.D. To study the environment gorillas live in.29. What does the underlined word“infiltrating” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Fitting in. B. Focusing on. C. Playing with. D. Learning about.30.

Ways to make a robotic spy close to gorillas.DAstronauts on the International Space Station will soon test a new oven for making chocolate chip cookies.
