问题     So why is Google suddenly so interested in robots? That’s the question everyone’s asking after it emerged this month that the internet giant has quietly collected a portfolio of eight advanced-robotics firms. Google is【C1】________the venture as partly a long term "moonshot" project-the name【C2】________to its more bizarre or【C3】________ideas, such as its self-driving car or broadband via high-altitude balloons. But it also says it aims to【C4】________a batch of robotics products in the【C5】________term and it has a "10-year vision" of where the company is【C6】________.
    Based in the US and Japan, the new acquisitions make【C7】________products, ranging from walking humanoids (human-like Robots), to assembly robots, machine-vision systems and robotic special-effects movie cameras.
    The【C8】________of technologies that Google has acquired doesn’t point to【C9】________one type of robot being developed, says Chris Melhuish. "These technologies could【C10】________anything from a smart bed to a wheeled home-assistant robot for elderly people."
    But Will Jackson thinks Google will use its【C11】________in search engines to allow people to find【C12】________faster in shopping malls and airports. "You would never go over and talk to a touch screen,【C13】________if a mechanical person talks to you and makes eye【C14】________and smiles it’s very hard indeed not to talk【C15】________. Google knows all about our【C16】________and market preferences al-ready. A robot would be a good【C17】________for that information."
    Google’s moves are【C18】________of how robotics is changing, says Scott Eckert. "The robotics industry is in the early stages of a【C19】________from a primarily industrial market to a dynamic technology sector," he says. "This is an exciting industry with a【C20】________future."  
【C17】
选项 A、interaction
B、interval
C、interference
D、interface
答案D
解析 上文分析了人们可能舍弃触摸屏而选择通过与机器人对话来寻求帮助，可推知机器人因而可以成为谷歌掌握人们信息需求、人们获取信息的一个良好的“界面”，故选D项interface“界面”。A项interaction“互动”，该句主语是A robot，单有一方不能互动。B项interval“间隔”与上下文没有语义关联。C项interference“干涉”具有消极含义，与空格前的good相矛盾。
