30、sh. At Shaftesbury Avenue, I saw a huge queue for one ATM machine, but no one was using the neighboring “hole in the wall”. Assuming that the second machine was broken, I asked one queuing man if it was out of order. He replied, “Its working, but this one pays out twenties for tenners!”So the reason
31、 for the weirdly long queue is that these folks wanted to “double their money” by getting 20 notes for each 10 note requested. Being an honest man, I didnt hang about; I simply used the idle machine and walked off.Last week, customers took similar advantage of Commonwealth Bank in Sydney, Australia.
32、 Following overnight maintenance, a computer virus caused CommBanks ATMs to fail to function properly and begin paying out extra money, with unrestricted withdrawals. They allowed customers with little or no cash in their accounts to withdraw large sums that they didnt have. After about 5 hours, Com
33、mBank managed to restart these ATMs and stop the flood of cash.You stole your own cash!By withdrawing money they didnt have in their accounts, some of these greedy customers have gone heavily overdrawn.

34、ealing.Alas, both CommBank and the New South Wales police said that they will use ATM records and cameras to track down those who took advantage of the error. As Detective Superintendent Col Dyson of the New South Wales police department warned, “People should realise that they dont have the right t
35、o take that money and are committing a criminal offence if they keep it.”What about overpayments?What about when you key in a 20 withdrawal and you get two 20 notes, not two 10 notes?In English law (covering England and Wales), you have the right to keep money paid to you in error “under mistake of
36、fact”, but only if you honestly believe that the money is yours. However, if you requested 20, got 40 and 40 was allowed to be lent to you, then the cash is yours to keep, as neither you nor the bank has suffered any loss. 56. The words “hole in the wall” refer to _.A. a real hole in the wallB. anot

39、ictionC. the machine paid out more money than requested even when a person had no money in his accountD. some people have been arrested on charge of getting extra money in the two happenings59.

41、O Lonely astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) may soon be getting a robot friend from Japan. Japans space agency is considering putting a talking humanoid (有人的特点的) robot on the ISS to watch the work while astronauts are asleep, monitor their health and stress levels and communicate to
42、 Earth through the micro-blogging site Twitter. Japans space agency JAXA announced this week that it is looking at a plan to send a humanoid robot to the space station in 2013 that could communicate with the ground through Twitter primarily feeding photos, rather than original ideas and provide astr
43、onauts with “comfort and companionship”. Following up on US NASAs “Robonaut” R-2 program, which is set for launch on the Discovery shuttle next week, the Japanese robot would be part of a larger effort to create and refine robots that can be used by the elderly, JAXA said in a statement. Japan is on
44、e of the leading countries in robotics and has a rapidly aging society with one of the worlds longest life expectancies. Improving robot communication capabilities could help elderly people on Earth by providing a nonintrusive (无干扰的) means of monitoring the robot owners health and vital signs and se
45、nding information to emergency responders if there is an abnormality, JAXA said. “We are thinking in terms of a very human-like robot that would have facial expressions and be able to talk with the astronauts,” said JAXAs Satoshi Sano. The robot was being developed with the advertising and communications giant Dentsu Inc and a team at Tokyo University. The NASA project has a human-like head, hands and arms and uses the same tools as station crew members. The “Robonaut” called R-2 is intended to carry out maintenance tasks in the stations Destiny lab.
