18、niversities in China, according to Huaxi Metropolis Daily. “The robot will take three exams, namely math, Chinese and a comprehensive test of liberal arts, which includes history, politics and geography,” said Lin Hui, CEO of an artificial intelligence company in Chengdu. Like the other examinees(考生
19、), the robot will have to finish the exams during designated(指定的) periods. Unlike the usual scene that sees 30 students sit in an exam room, the robot will take its exams in a closed room without anyone else present, except for proctors and a notary(学监和公证人).According to Lin, the robot will be linked
20、 to a printer before every exam, and the electronic examination paper will be put into the robots program when the examination begins. The robot will be totally disconnected from the internet and will solve the problems with its artificial intelligence program. Finally the answers will be outputted
21、through the printer.Its believed that Chinese and a comprehensive test of liberal arts, rather than maths, will cause challenges to the robot, since questions in maths are objective with specific answers, while in the other test subjects, there are some subjective questions, such as the reading comp
22、rehension and essay-writing. Lin said that the robots writing technique nowadays has been increasingly mature. “With key information words, a robot can write an economic news report following the widely-accepted writing mode in Silicon Valley, while nobody could tell it was written by a robot,” Lin
23、said.From this point of view, the robot can analyze the topic of the writing part and complete writing. The essay may turn out to be an emotionless piece which slightly affects the grade.25.

It is certain that all the exams will cause no challenges to the robot.CParents in Uganda will face up to six months in jail for failing to vaccinate(接种疫苗)their children. Children will also be banned from going to school unless they have an up-
27、to-date immunization card. The law has been put in place to help stop the spread of deadly diseases. Right now, 70 out of every 1,000 children in Uganda will die before they turn five.Importantly, the new law will also target the leaders of a growing religious named 666, who are spreading anti-vacci
28、nation idea throughout the country and telling parents not to vaccinate - even going as far as hiding children i to avoid immunization. “It started in a few districts in eastern Uganda,” health minister Sarah Achieng Opendi said, “but now it has spread and now we are seeing it all over the country.”
29、This isnt the first time that law has been put in place to encourage parents to vaccinate their children. In Australia, parents lose their childcare and welfare benefits if they refuse to vaccinate their child for anything other than medical reasons, and the state of Victoria has banned un-immunized
30、 children from childcare and school altogether. The state government of California is also looking to do something similar.But Uganda has gone a little more extreme, in the hopes that the new law will help fight against the anti-vacc ination messaging of the 666 cult leaders as well as helping to improve childhood survival and immunization rates. Currently, around 3 percent of children in the country have not been vaccinated. So why does it matter if some parents choose not to immunize their kids, if everyone else is protected? Well, unfortunately, like pretty much ev
