In 2011, when British photographer David J. Slater was visiting a park in Indonesia, his camera was taken away by a group of black monkeys. The result was hundreds of monkey selfies (自拍照). The best ones show a female monkey smiling toothily for the camera. Slater then sold the photos and they became popular on the Internet.
Nobody knew they would create a copyright battle three years later.
Last month, Wikimedia Commons put the monkey selfies online under a collection of free photos without Slater’s permission. Slater asked the website to take them down since he owns the copyright.
However, Wikimedia Foundation—the organization behind Wikimedia Commons—refused Slater’s request. They said that according to US copyright law, whoever pushes the button on the camera owns the copyright to the photo. It was the monkeys but not Slater that pushed the button.
What’s more, monkeys don’t own copyright. “US copyright law says that works that come from a non-human source can’t ask for copyright,” said Katherine Maher, Chief Communications Officer of Wikimedia.
Slater argues that the pictures belong to him as they were taken from his camera. He said he bought the cameras; he spent a lot of money to travel to Indonesia; and it was his carelessness that allowed the monkeys to take his cameras away. All these have made him the author of the picture, no matter who pushed the button. In a sense, the monkeys could be regarded as his assistant, Slater said.
As of now, there has been no result in the Monkey Selfie case. Who do you think will win this interesting battle? What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Some monkeys grabbed Slater’s camera.
B. Slater took photos of the monkeys and sold them.
C. The photos taken by Slater became popular on the Internet.The underlined word “copyright” in the second paragraph probably means “______” in Chinese.

Saya, the life-like woman robots started her work as a teacher at a primary school in Tokyo Japan days ago. She gave lessons to the pupils there. You won’t hurt it, hit it or play with it.
Professor Hiroshi Kobayashi of Tokyo University of Science, who built Saya, said she didn’t mean to take the place of human teachers with Saya, but to show the joys of technology. “We didn’t want to do all the work of a teacher, but to build this robot to teach children about technology. And Saya may be a help to the schools which have not enough teachers.”
“In some villages and small schools, there are children who know little about new technology and also there are some teachers that can’t teach these lessons,” Kobayashi said. “So we hope the robot can make the children become interested in new technology.”
