问题     Robots came into the world as a literary device whereby the writers and film-makers of the early 20th century could explore their hopes and fears about technology, as the era of the automobile, telephone and aeroplane picked up its reckless jazz-age speed. Since moving from the page and screen to real life, robots have been a mild disappointment. They do some things that humans cannot do themselves, like exploring Mars, and a host of things people do not much want to do, like dealing with unexploded bombs or vacuuming floors. And they are very useful in bits of manufacturing.
    But reliable robots—especially ones required to work beyond the safety cages of a factory floor—have proved hard to make, and robots are still pretty stupid So although they fascinate people, they have not yet made much of a mark on the world That seems about to change. The dramatic growth in the power of silicon chips, digital sensors and high-bandwidth communications improves robots just as it improves all sorts of other products.
选项
答案 随着汽车、电话和飞机的时代以毫无忌惮的爵士年代速度加快发展，机器人作为一种文学手段来到这个世界，20世纪初的作家和电影制作人可以借此来探究他们对于技术的希冀与恐惧。自从机器人从书本和银幕走人现实生活，它们有点令人失望。 机器人做一些人类自己做不了的事情，如探索火星，还有大量人们不太想做的事情，比如拆卸未曾爆炸的炸弹，或者以真空吸尘器清扫地板。而且，机器人在某些制造领域也大有用处。 但事实证明，可靠的机器人——特别是需要在厂区安全笼以外工作的机器人——是很难制造的，而且机器人仍然很笨。所以，虽然它们让人着迷，却还没有在世界上留下多深的印记。 这种局面似乎将要改变。硅片、数字传感器、高带宽通信的力量迅猛增长，像改进其他形形色色的产品一样，也在改进机器人。
