Conoscere una persona

你会爱上机器人吗？

假如有一个机器人完全是按照你的喜好制造的，他/她会为你做饭，帮你做家务，每天逗你开心，他/她了解你所有的需求，能满足你的所有要求，而且长得还很帅或者很漂亮，完全就是你的梦中情人，你会爱上他吗？

但是他/她可能没有心跳，没有人类的正常需求，不用吃饭，不用上厕所，也不需要睡觉。但是他会唱歌，也可能会跳舞，甚至上知天文，下知地理，你不会的事情问一下他就可以了。但是他/她可能没有荷尔蒙，不知道他/她会不会让你心动呢？

或者他/她可以成为很好的朋友？也可能是一个很危险的人物，如果他被病毒入侵了。你期待拥有一个机器人吗？

Notes:

上知天文，下知地理：意思是一个人知道很多。

荷尔蒙：hormone

病毒：virus

入侵：invade

PODCAST in ITALIANO

L'astrofisica italiana Margherita Hack

Μύθοι του Αισώπου, γεμάτοι φαντασία, διδακτικοί και τόσο διασκεδαστικοί!
Με ήρωες συνήθως ζώα, οικεία στο παιδί, που το βοηθούν να γνωρίσει ανθρώπινα χαρακτηριστικά και ιδιότητες και έτσι να χτίσει σιγά σιγά την προσωπικότητά του.

子供の狐は遊びに行きました。　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　1
真綿のように やわらかい雪の上を
かけまわると、雪の粉が しぶきのように
飛び散って 小さい虹が すっと映るのでした。
すると突然、うしろで、
「どたどた、ざーっ」と ものすごい音がして、
パン粉のような粉雪が、ふわーっと子狐に
おっかぶさってきました。　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
子狐はびっくりして、雪の中に
ころがるようにして 十メートルも むこうへ
逃げました。何だろうと思って
ふり返って見ましたが 何もいませんでした。
それは もみの枝から雪がなだれ落ちたのでした。
まだ枝と枝の間から 白い絹糸のように
雪がこぼれていました。

Narrator: Malala Yousafzai was born in 1997 in the Swat Valley in northern Pakistan. Her father was a social activist and educator, and he named his daughter after a female hero who led the Afghan people to victory in an 1880 battle against the British.

Narrator: Malala attended the girls’ school that her father had founded, but when the Swat Valley came under the control of the Taliban in 2007, the family, including her two younger brothers, had to leave. The Taliban is a political and religious group that follows a strict form of Islam. They do not believe that girls should attend a school or that women should play an active part in society. Upon the family’s return in 2008, Malala gave her first public speech, called “How dare the Taliban to take away my basic right to an education?” As the Taliban continued with their violent campaign of closing and destroying girls’ schools, Malala started to blog for the BBC under a different name.

Her activism attracted global attention, including a nomination from South African archbishop Desmond Tutu for the International Children’s Peace Prize.

Narrator: On the ninth of October 2012, Malala was traveling home from school when a Taliban gunman got onto her bus and asked, “Who is Malala?” She was shot in the head and had to be transferred to the UK for medical care. She and her family stayed in that country with relatives, and she continued her studies thereafter she got better. She did not visit Pakistan again until 2018.

Narrator: The Taliban’s violent actions led to a new international focus on and action for girls’ educational rights, and Malala’s work was right at the heart of these efforts. In 2013, on her sixteenth birthday, she gave a speech at the United Nations in New York. She was also named one of Time magazine’s most influential people of the year and published her life...
