24、ust ask Siri to tell you a joke. But it may also lead to problems.A recent study by scientists from the University of Kansas in the US found that human-like devices keep people from seeking out normal human interaction when they feel lonely.During a series of experiments, participants were asked to

25、write about a time when they felt lonely. They also took part in an online game of catch against a puter program that was designed to throw the ball to other players more often, but participants believed they were playing with real people online.Participants were then introduced to human-like produc

29、Olson told Daily Mail. The effect goes away. This seems tobe happening on a very subconscious level.Researchers believe the results are important for consumers to realize how these types of products could affect their social interaction with real people, especially because so many new products featu

30、re interactivity.If someone notices they are talking more to Siri lately, maybe that has something to do with feeling lonely, Olson said. From that standpoint, its important to be aware of it.The study could also help panies design products that can increase the well-being of people who feel lonely,

31、 without sacrificing normal social interaction.Maybe it is more about improving our current relationships, Olson said, such as taking a break from screen time and focusing on developing your real personal connections.56.

46、ba, Canada from 2009 to 2014. Polar bears were kept in this facility as part of the Polar Bear Alert Program, which aims to reduce conflict between humans and polar bears around the town of Churchill. Polar bears are not fed while in the facility, which allowed for a controlled measure of their weig

47、ht loss. On average, polar bears lost 2.2 pounds of mass per day-exactly the same amount as free-ranging自由放养的bears measured during the ice-free season on the coastline of Hudson Bay. Scientists reported that even with land-based food opportunities, polar bears lost the same amount of weight.Some stu

48、dies have suggested that polar bears could adapt to land-based foods tooffsetthe missing calories during a shortened hunting period on the ice, said Nicholas Pilfold, Ph. D., lead author of the study and a postdoctoral associate in Applied Animal Ecology at San Diego Zoo Global. Yet, our results pro
