五、閱讀測驗 Speak with Siri
If you have an iPhone, you can order Siri to do many things
for you. Siri is a personal virtual assistant. It will speak back to
you because it can understand almost everything you say by
using a special program. It can inform you of the weather, the
time of your appointment and even open an application. All you
have to do is to say "Hey Siri" to turn the program on. A
recognizer will closely listen to the words and check if the
words are actually "'Hey, Siri." Siri collected your order and sent
them into a data file to find out the words. Siri becomes more
familiar with your voice the more you use it. Then the Apple's
central computer will search for the answer to your questions
and orders. By the way, Susan Bennett is the original voice of
Siri. She recorded her voice in 2005, and she didn't know back
then that her voice would be used for Siri.
