22、said.Using information from a landuse database of 2001，the researchers divided the preretirement population of England into four groups according to income level，and five groups according to access to green space.They then looked at death rate for 20012005.They found that the inequality in death rat

23、e from all causes relating to lack of money was less in those populations in the greenest areas compared with the figures for people living in more builtup places.They found an even stronger relationship when it came to deaths from certain diseases such as heart conditions and stroke (中风)There was n

28、xercise in green areas benefits people a lot.CAt Englands University of Plymouth, Professor Eduardo Miranda has been programming pairs of robots to compose music. Mirandas robots have simplevocal cords(声带）and are programmed to sing and to listen to each other. The robots unique warbling sounds(颤音） d

29、o not perfectly match the human voice, but each machine is exactly sharing music with the other in a new and unique way.Each robot is equipped with speakers, the software that mimics the human voice, a mouth that opens as it sings, a microphone for ears, and a camera for eyes. The robots also move.

30、Miranda hopes that by studying his robot vocalists, he can discover something about how and why humans create, perform, and listen to music.When the robots sing, one robot makes six random sounds. Its partner responds with more sounds. The first robot analyzes the sounds to see if their sequences(序列

31、）are similar.If they are,it nods its head and commits the sounds to memory, and the second robot notices and memorizes the musical sequences, too. If the first robot thinks the sounds are too different, it shakes its head and both robots ignore the sounds. Then the process continues.Miranda set up a

32、n experiment in which he left the two robots alone in his study for two weeks. When he returned, his little warblers had, by imitating each other , not only shared notes but combined them . The product of their cooperation was far from symphony, but the robots had begun to integrate the notes into t

33、heir own self-developed songs.With the help of his warbling robots, one of Mirandas goals is to create music that no human would ever compose.

Thats bad news for the environment- and our wallets - as these outdated devices consume much more energy than

37、the newer ones that do the same things. To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life - from when its minerals are mined to when we stop
