What is a robot?Basically(基本地)，it is a machine which is designed to do the work of a human being. It is usually controlled by a computer. Once it has been given a set of things to do，it will do the job on its own.

Nowadays，Britain has 120 robots at work in industry. This compares(相比) badly with other industrial countries. In Japan，there are 4，000 robots in use. In the USA there are 2，000 and in Germany there are 500. According to the report，the government must help people understand how robot technology can be used. Also，people must be educated to know how important this new technology is. The designing of new robots will be very important in the future. The report says that special robot centres should be set up where people who design robots and people who will use them work together. The assembly(装配) work of the future will be complex(复杂的).

社交机器人

Nexi is one of a new generation of robots. It moves on wheels and can pick up objects. But robots like Nexi are more than just entertaining toys.

Nexi, a social robot created by scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) , can express human emotions. Roboticists at MIT call Nexi a "social robot". A social robot is a robot that can communicate like a human. Nexi can look sad, mad, and even bored. Some social robots can also "read" our facial expressions. Roboticists believe that it won't be long before we have social robots in our homes, helping us live better lives.

Autom is another social robot developed at MIT. Autom is a robot health coach. It has a screen where you enter information about what food you ate that day or how much you exercised. Autom has a face with eyes that move. It speaks with a synthesized voice. Autom gives you advice about your diet and exercise and drives you to do better.

In a test, Autom helped people lose weight better than other ways of recording diet information. Roboticists think this is because Autom used facial expressions and words of encouragement. In other words, Autom communicated like a real person. In fact, many people who used Autom gave the robot a new name and talked to it. When robots use human expressions and body language, people reply to them a lot like they reply to people.

In the future, humans may communicate with social robots just like they do with other people. Let's wait and see what will happen in the future!

Scientists have been experimenting with four-leg robots for years. They want to use robots to carry heavy things over difficult land.

But providing enough power for those kinds of robots has been a problem. Now, that has changed. Engineers at MIT have designed a running robot that runs on batteries. Scientists say their robots will soon be able to run like cheetahs, the fastest land animals on Earth.

One difficulty in designing these types of robots continues to be providing power. These machines are still quite heavy and they need a lot of power to run. But the cheetah-like robot designed by engineers at MIT is light enough m run on batteries.The robot weighs just 30 kilograms. The robot needs only about 700 watts of power to run. This robot can actually jump 40cm high and it can land very safely and then it can run. The robots limbs and other parts were made in a three-dimensional or 3D printer. A strong, light-weight material called Kevlar is used to make the robot's part stronger.

But the development of MITs robot is not without its own set of problems. The robot's limbs must support heavy force, and sometimes they break.

Scientists say the new technologies used on this robot may be used in the making of limbs for disabled persons and other machines. Some of those machines may help save humans from performing difficult and dangerous jobs.

1.What is the challenge in designing the four-leg robots?

A. carrying heavy things　　 B. Running fast.　　 C. Being light enough.　　 D. Providing enough power.

2.What can the new technologies on MIT's robot be used for?

A. For making a 3D printer.　　 B. For making limbs for disabled persons.

C. For helping people do housework.　　 D. For helping people live longer.

3.From the passage, we know that MIT's robot __________.

A. can carry heavy things　　 B. can jump 30cm high

C. is made of Kevlar　　 D. is still very heavy

4.What's the main idea of this passage?

A. Scientists have been working on four-leg robots.

B. A new robot has been designed by engineers at MIT.

C. The robots can help us do difficult and dangerous jobs.

D. The difficulty in designing the new robot.

Robots are supposed to run on batteries, right? Well not all of them.

Scientists in England have built a kind of small robots that get their energy from dead flies, bad apples, or sugar.

One robot, called Slugbot, was even designed to hunt(猎取) garden slugs for dinner!

What's up with all that food?

Well, scientists at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory want to invent robots that can operate for a long time in dark, dirty, or dangerous places.

Many of those spots, like the seafloor or Antarctica, don't have electrical sockets(插座).

So inventor Chris Melhuish came up with a better idea: Build robots that get their energy just like animals do by hunting and eating food from their environment.

One robot, called Ecobot Ⅱ, could run for 12 days on a diet of eight flies! Of course, it'd still get a lot more power from one AA battery, though.

Melhuish says his team is now working on a new and improved robot, called Ecobot III, which will have a better digestion system.

It seems that after an eight fly dinner, Ecobot II couldn't deal with the leftover(剩下的) "waste".

Maybe restrooms in the future will have signs for boys, girls, and robots.

1.An ordinary robot usually .

A．gets its energy from sugar

B．depends on batteries to work

C．can get food for itself

D．can work a few minutes without energy

2.From the passage, we can infer that a slug .

A．is a kind of insect　　　　　　　　 B．is a kind of fish

C．can't see Slugbot　　　　　　　　　　 D．can eat Slugbot

3.What kind of robots do inventor Chris Melhuish want?

A．Robots that can provide people with food.

B．Robots that can work in dangerous places.

C．Robots that can get energy for themselves.

D．Robots that can be very small.

4.Which of the following is NOT true according to this passage?

A．Robots need to work in places that have no sockets for power.

B．Melhuish is not very satisfied with Ecobot Ⅱ.

C．Maybe there will be three kinds of restrooms in the future.

D．Ecobot Ⅱ can turn its flies into energy completely.

5.What does the passage mainly tell us?

A．Robots are hard things to invent.

B．Scientists are working to improve robots.

C．Robots in the future need to eat food like human.

D．Scientists at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory are good at robots.

九年级英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析

Wearing a white blouse, Ai-Da studies her subject and begins to draw. She looks like any artist at work. However, the "beep ... beep ... beep" noise from her arm gives her away. Ai-Da is, in fact, a robot.

Ai-Da has been described as the world's "first AI (人工智能) robot artist". She takes her name from Ada Lovelace, the world's first female computer programmer. Scientists at Oxford University developed AI systems (系统) for Ai-Da. The robot has cameras in her eyeballs. After she has studied a subject, she will use her left arm to draw. Now, Ai-Da can only use a pencil for sketches (素描). The plan is for her to paint.

Ai-Da is not the first AI system to produce artworks. Since 2006, scientists have been developing software (软件) to turn photos into drawings. Last year, an artwork created using AI was sold in New York for $132,500. However, Ai-Da's human-like appearance brings something new to the field.

In June, Ai-Da opened her first exhibition at Oxford. There were about 30 drawings by the robot. Ai-Da, standing next to her artworks, attracted (吸引) many visitors.

Ai-Da's inventor, Aidan Meller, talked about the importance of the robot. "Ai-Da brings a new voice to the art world," she said. "AI is going to be the big thing of the 2020s. That influences us greatly." Meller hopes the exhibition was just the start and that more will follow to show how AI is influencing human life.

根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误。正确的用“A”表示，不正确的用“B”表示。

1.Ai-Da is a real artist who helps scientists at Oxford University develop AI systems.

2.Last year, scientists began to develop software to turn photos into drawings.

3.In June, Ai-Da opened her first exhibition at Oxford successfully.

4.Aidan Meller thinks AI is going to influence human life more and more greatly.
