35、wireless technology might change our lives in the future. One project in Britain is testing this superfast technology, but not on humans. Instead, the experiment involves an unlikely group of Internet users-cows. The system connects the animals to 5G in an effort to automate the milking process.The
36、project was developed by American technology company Cisco Systems. It is part of a Cisco-led program called 5G Rural First. Cisco says the program seeks to explore the future of 5G connectivity in rural communities around the world. Rural areas are expected to be the last to receive 5G service.Test
37、ing areas were set up on farms in three rural areas of England. The cows are equipped with 5G-connected devices that link up to a robotic milking system. The system uses sensors and machine learning to fully automate the process. System designers say the technology takes over after a cow feels ready
38、 to be milked and walks toward an automatic gate. The device is designed to recognize each individual cow. It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking. During the process, machines release food for the cow as a reward.One of the test areas is in the town of Shepton Mallet, in
39、southwest England. There about 50 of the farms 180 cows are fitted with 5G smart collars and health-observing ear sensors. Project officials say the devices do not harm the cows and the sensors permit farmers to immediately identify any problem or health concerns.Other technology tools powering the
40、5G smart farms include automated brushes that work automatically when the cow rubs up against them. Sensors also control the amount of light to the cows living areas depending on the weather. And, an automatic feeding system makes sure the animals always get enough to eat.Nick Chrissos works on the
41、project for Cisco. He said the system could connect every cow And every other animal on the whole farm. Thats what 5G can do for farming-really release the power that we have within this farm, everywhere around the United Kingdom, and everywhere around the world.”32. Why was the program developed?A.
