BA man who broke his neck outdoors in freezing conditions survived lying in snow for nearly 20 hours thanks to his dog, who kept him warm through the night and barked for help.The Michigan man, named only as Bob, was alone when h
18、e left his farmhouse on New Years Eve to collect firewood. Predicting a journey of only several metres, Bob was wearing just long johns, a shirt and slippers when he went outside, despite the temperature being around -4C. However, he slipped and broke his neck. “I was screaming for help but my neare
19、st neighbour is about a quarter mile away and it was 10:30 pm, but my Kelsey came,” said Bob. Kelsey is Bobs five-year-old Golden Retriever.

20、 kept me warm and alert.

25、to designers and marketers. British fashion designer Wayne Hemingway explored this topic in a BBC radio programme about the psychology of colour. Red is, of course, considered fortunate in China. But he points out that its a powerful colour wherever you go, with some serious scientific bases. Studie
26、s have indicated that red “raises blood pressure”, and claim that it stands out from other colours thanks to its long wavelength. Hemingway says it appears to be “coming towards you”, and so is useful for emergency and alarm signs. Black has a different sense. In the West its associated with death,
27、but that hasnt stopped it becoming a mysterious colour. Hemingway says says its “very powerful and sophisticated when used as a primary colour in branding.”Blue, by contrast, is cool and peaceful. The colour is a constant presence in our lives, says Hemingway, being the colour of the sky and the sea
28、. That gives it an air of reliability, which makes it a firm choice with “banks and corporations”. Hemingway says this is also why emergency services often choose the colour.

29、g creates the impression it is enviromentally friendly. But wise customers are also aware of thisand now think twice before blindly swallowing environmental claims. Hemingway also says that green is the colour of growth and movement: its used to indicate go on traffic lights.Finally, we have purple,
30、 which is associated with valuable things. In the past, purple colour was expensive because it was very difficult to produce, and it became the colour worn by royalty in many Western countries.

The questions about coloursDGeorgia Tech, a university in Atlanta in the US, provided a teaching assistant called Jill Watson for one of its courses.Except that Jill Watson was really a robot, who helped st
34、udents and answered their questions online. The only thing that students noticed was that Jill Watson answered questions and provided feedback (反馈) much more quickly than other teaching assistants. Such robotic teachers had advantages over human teachers. They were always ready to respond, they were
35、 never bored, tired or distracted. While they could be trained to operate for a particular task or set of questions, they couldnt easily adapt that knowledge to a different setting. There are also more slight questions about online help from a robot. Would you feel the same about positive feedback i
36、f it came from a machine rather than a person? And academic teaching is often not about “right“ or “wrong“ answers, but teaching how to think and investigate.

Change in education is driven by public policy decisions, he said, not computer software.”Educating the whole person and helping them to “b
