Gioseffo, but
Fra Paolo, so far from returning evil for evil, although he- knew the
author of the libel above mentioned, did not punish him but permitted
him to enjoy an honorable employment; however, after Fra Paolo's
death, these
calumnies
and other delinquencies were the cause of his
banishment from the dominions of Venetia, but such was Paolo's charity
that when he received the greatest wrong his expression of counte-
nance Was most serene, and he endeavored to extenuate the offence as much
as possible, usually saying, that such an one's brain was touched, and that
in his position, or for his own interest, he could not do otherwise.
Guess: |
|
Question: |
Why did Fra Paolo not punish the author of the libel mentioned and instead allowed him to enjoy an honorable employment? |
Answer: |
Fra Paolo did not punish the author of the libel mentioned and instead allowed him to enjoy an honorable employment because he was known for his gentleness and did not seek revenge. Despite knowing the author of the libel, Fra Paolo did not return evil for evil. After Fra Paolo's death, the author of the libel was eventually banished from the dominions of Venetia due to his calumnies and other delinquencies. Fra Paolo's charity was such that even when he received the greatest wrong, his expression of countenance was most serene, and he endeavored to extenuate the offense as much as possible. He usually said that the offender's brain was touched and that in his position or for his own interest, he could not do otherwise. |

‘Good If you can manage to come while it is still daylight, so much the

count on her to be on the qm vive any time after sundown ’
Mrs Semprill was the town scandalmonger-the most eminent, that is, of the
town’s many scandalmongers Having got what he wanted (he was constantly
pestering Dorothy to come to his house more often), Mr Warburton said au
revoir and left Dorothy to do the remainder of her shopping
In the semi-gloom of Solepipe’s shop, she was just moving away from the
counter with her two and a half yards of casement cloth, when she was aware of
a low,
mournful
voice at her ear It was Mrs Semprill She was a slender
woman of forty, with a lank, sallow, distinguished face, which, with her glossy

Question: |
What did the evidence prove? |
Answer: |
The passage discusses various topics related to machine intelligence, extrasensory perception, and the potential for creating learning machines. The author argues that there are no clear rules for human behavior like there are for machines, but there may be laws of behavior that govern human actions. The author also discusses the potential for extrasensory perception and how it challenges traditional scientific ideas. The author then explores the idea of creating learning machines and suggests that the best approach may be to create a program that simulates a child's brain and subject it to an appropriate course of education. The author suggests that this approach could be more expeditious than evolution in creating machines that can learn and improve. |
