[单项选择]As the editor of a science magazine--a fanny one--I was continually besieged by people who wanted ray help in winning a Nobel Prize.
I always explained that I had no influence on these matters, but they invariably told me in great detail what they’d done and why they deserved a prize. In some cases, they were correct. They deserved a prize all right, but not a Nobel Prize. And so, with the help of some friends and colleagues, I started the annual Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony.
The first was held in October 1991. Now each year the science humor magazine I currently edit, Annals of Improbable Research, awards ten Ig Nobel Prizes to people whose achievements, though not precisely ignoble, "cannot or should not be reproduced." Genuine Nobel Prize winners present the Ig Nobel Prizes to the winners at Harvard. A friendly, standing-room-only audience of 1,200 gives a warm welcome with wild applause and paper airplanes.
Here are a few especially memorable Ig Nobel Prize winners:
A. Former Ig Nobel Prize winners.
B. Genuine Nobel Prize winners.
C. The editors of Annals of Improbable Research.
D. President of Harvard.’

(46) That is not to say that computers will evolve exactly as Clarke envisioned, any more than propulsion systems developed in the way Jules Verne imagined three-quarters of a century before a rocked sent a spaceship to the moon. (47)However, computer scientists are developing systems that come very close to mimicking parts of human cognition;it seems plausible that something like Hal will be around before you depart from this earth.
(48) Computerized cognition, or artificial intelligence (AI), as it is often called, is broadly defined as that branch of computer science that deals with the development of computers (hardware) and computer programs (software) that emulate h
