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."  
【C9】
选项 A、either
B、some
C、any
D、every
答案C
解析 空格所在句为否定句，下一句提到“不一般的机器人技术产品”，故推测该句指所收购的技术不再用于生产目前任何正在开发的机器人，空格后已有one，故选C项any“任何(一个)”。A项either表示“两个事物中的任一个”，上文列举了谷歌所收购的公司生产的不止两种机器人产品，故排除。B项some通常不用于否定句。D项every后若接数词，则表示“每几个中”，代入文中语义不通。均排除。
