　　Industrial robots are already working in many factories around the world and in our homes, for instance as smart vacuum cleaners. Scientists say in a few years we will start seeing so-called “social robots” capable of engaging with people.

　　Today's robots can build cars and explore underwater objects. But interacting with people is more complex than simply taking an incoming message, says Massachusetts Institute of Technology researcher Cynthia Breazeal.

　　“Social robots really interact with people in ways you feel like you're interacting with someone rather than something,” she said. “And social robots are really designed to engage you in much more of an interaction that feels like a cooperation or partnership.”

　　At the Naval Research Laboratory, near Washington, scientists are researching which features robots should have to be able to live with humans. Researcher Alan Schultz says social robots must be adapted to social situations.

　　“You know if you're going to have robots out in the wild, so to speak, they have to obey our standards and they have to do things in the way we expect, so that we can move about our environment and not be interrupted by them or have to think hard about the fact that they're around us,” he said.

　　Social robots do not necessarily have to have a human face. Steve Cousins, the CEO of Savioke Robotics in Cupertino, California, says their robot called Botlr is already being tested in a hotel, delivering small items to people.

　　“It's designed to be in human spaces and interact with people and around people,” he said. “So it interacts with the front desk agent when they're sending it somewhere. It interacts with people in the elevator as it's going along. And, it interacts with people at the door when the delivery arrives.”

　　So far, social robots are limited to very simple tasks like relaying messages or taking family photos. But Cynthia Breazeal, who designed this one, says their abilities may be extended into many different areas.

　　问题：

　　1. What will social robots do according to the scientists?

　　A.They will cooperate with people.

　　B.They will clean the big house.

　　C.They will explore underwater objects.

　　D.They will build different kinds of cars.

　　【参考答案】A

　　[考点]事实细节题

　　【精析】A 根据文章第三段第二句“…that feels like a cooperation or partnership.”可知，在未来社交机器人在互动中跟人类的关系就像是合作或者搭档关系，所以选项A“它们将与人类合作”符合题意。其他三个选项不属于社交机器人可以做的事情。故选A。

　　2.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

　　A.Social robots are more difficult to design.

　　B.Industrial robots are more complicated to design.

　　C.Social robots can be more useful than industrial robots.

　　D.Industrial robots can do less than social robots.

　　【参考答案】A

　　[考点]推理判断题

　　【精析】A 通读全文可知，在未来社交机器人能够和人类互动，能够适应社会形式，能够遵照人类的标准并做出我们期望的事情等等。同时根据文章第二段第二句“But interacting with people is more complex than simply…”可推知，这种社交机器人比较复杂，能力范围非常广泛，由此可推知设计起来也没那么容易，所以选项A符合题意。

　　3.It can be inferred from the passage that .

　　A.social robots only serve the people they like

　　B.it's better for social robots to work in a hotel

　　C.it's better for social robots to have a human face

　　D.social robots will be under the control of human beings

　　【参考答案】D

　　[考点]推理判断题

　　【精析】D 根据文章第五段第一句“…they have to obey our standards and they have to do things in the way we expect…”可推知，社交机器人是受人类控制的，所以选项D描述正确;选项A并未在本文提及;选项B和选项C与文章大意不符。故选D。

　　4. What does the passage mainly talk about?

　　A.The function of social robots.

　　B.The use of industrial robots.

　　C.The daily life of robots.

　　D.The way of designing robots.

　　【参考答案】A

　　[考点]主旨大意题

　　【精析】A 文章第一段简单讲述了工业机器人能做到的事情以及以后将会出现社交机器人;第二至七段讲述了社交机器人具备的功能以及可以完成的事情;最后一段讲述了设计者的目标，即“要把社交机器人的能力扩大到许多不同的领域”。由此可推知，本文是围绕社交机器人的功能展开的。故选A。

　　5.Which of the following best describes the writer's tone in the passage?A.Critical.

　　B.Prejudiced.

　　C.Subjective.

　　D.Objective.
