Scientists in the 1950s proclaimed the robot the brainwave (灵感,灵机) of the future—it would free housewives of drudgery (单调沉闷的工作) and fill factories with tireless work force. But in many ways, the brainwave has been a washout.
Robots can paint cars, salvage (收集) nuclear fuel and even assist in brain surgery, but they’re still pretty dumb.
Mr. Reddy says robots are dumb "because we haven’t taken the trouble to put the pieces together, not because we don’t know how. That takes money and time and effort, and we don’t have the money".
But today robots can recognize forms and shapes and measure distances. They can hear and speak by using computers that recognize thousands of words. Their sensors can detect smoke or fumes. They can move about rolling on wheels or walk with as many as eight legs like a spider on uneven terrain (地面,地带). In addition, they can recognize texture and the force of a movement, such as pressing.
Many robots have one or two of these abilities to some degree, but creating a competent robot that combines most or all of them has been difficult. Scientists have also found it difficult to match human abilities that most people take for granted such as the finger’s dexterity (灵巧,熟练) or the ability to identify objects.
"The list of things that robots can do better than humans is much shorter than the list of things robots cannot," says Tom Smith from the Cambridge Mellon Institute.
In the 1950s scientists predicted that robots______.
选项
A、would have brains
B、would replace workers in factories
C、would be able to salvage nuclear fuel
D、would be pretty dumb
答案
B
解析
本题是一道具体细节题。问在20世纪50年代科学家预言机器人将会怎样。利用查阅式阅读法,我们可以在文章第一段中找到相关信息。这部分指出,早在20世纪50年代,科学家就宣布机器人是未来的灵机——它可以把家庭妇女们从繁重的劳动中解脱出来,工厂里将会有不倦的劳动力。由此可知,本题的正确答案应是B“将会取代工厂里的工人”。
