4.Whether in the home or the workplace,social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years.Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way,said Cynthia Breazeal,chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.
While household robots today do the normal housework,social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools.For example,these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad.This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.
The Jibo robot,arranged to ship later this year,is designed to be a personalized assistant.You can talk to the robot,ask it questions,and make requests for it to perform different tasks.The robot doesn't just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household.It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.
Social robots are not just finding their way into the home.They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.
Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market.The company's"Oshbot"robot is built to assist customers in a store,which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product's location in the store.It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.
The more interaction the robot has with humans,the more it learns.But Oshbot,like other social robots,is not intended to replace workers,but to work alongside other employees."We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us,but with us,"said Breazeal.

解答 BBD
33.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段While household robots today do the normal housework,social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools.可知社會機(jī)器人更像人或不是純粹的工具.故選B.
34.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)最后一段Breazeal 的話"We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us,but with us"可以推斷出社會機(jī)器人可以和我們一起做事情.故選B.
35.D 主旨大意題.根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容可知,文章主要介紹了社會機(jī)器人的功能與作用.故選D.
點評 解答細(xì)節(jié)理解題時,一個常用的方法就是運用定位法,即根據(jù)題干和選項中的關(guān)鍵詞從原文中找到相關(guān)的句子,與選項進(jìn)行比較從而確定答案;推理判斷題既要求學(xué)生透過文章表面文字信息推測文章隱含意思,又要求學(xué)生對作者的態(tài)度、意圖及文章細(xì)節(jié)的發(fā)展作正確的推理判斷,力求從作者的角度去考慮,不要固守自己的看法或觀點.
