Man and Computer

What makes people different from computer programs？ What is the missing element that our theories don't yet (51) ．for？ The answer is simple: People read newspaper stories (52) ．a reason to learn more about what they are interested in.

A goal to satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find (59) about the name of a restaurant which serves the desired type of food, how expensive the restaurant is, the (60) of the restaurant, etc. These are goals to (61) information or knowledge, what we are calling (62) goals. These goals can be held by computers too a computer might "want" to find out the location of a restaurant, and read a guide in order to do so (63) the same way as a person might. While such a goal would not (64) out of hunger in the case of the computer, it might (65) rise out of the "goal" to learn more about restaurants.
