But did you know that an eagle knows when a storm is coming long before it breaks When the storm is coming, the eagle will fly high to the sky and wait for the winds to come.

Alan Beck, an expert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the s 1__ on the effect of robot dogs on old people’s feelings. In the study, the r 2 , called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live a 3 . Before placing AIBO in the home, scientists will collect baseline data (数据) for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their e 4 feelings and activity before and after AIBO. Then, the scientists will review the data to test if the robot dog has produced any changes in the life of its master. “I talk to him all the time,” says a seventy-year-old lady. “W 5 I do, he’ll stay with me. When I’m watching TV, he’ll stay in my arms until he wants down. He has a mind of his own.” The scientists say they have some a 6 over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by e 7 walking it or playing with it. “At the beginning, it was b 8 that no one would like the robot dog because it was metal and not furry.” Beck says. “But it’s amazing how quickly we have given up that belief.” “Hopefully, down the road, these robot p 9 could become more valuable health helpers. They will r 10 their masters’ data of health conditions. They may even one day help older people in many other ways.”
