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.
When the author says robots are still pretty dumb, he means______.
选项
A、robots have not yet possessed sense of touch
B、robots still cannot read
C、there are still many things robots cannot do
D、humans are no match for robots
答案
C
解析
本题问作者说机器人仍然很笨拙的意思是什么。根据文章最后两段的内容,许多机器人均在某种程度上具备一两种这样的能力。但是,创造一个全能的机器人是很困难的。科学家们发现,它很难与人们司空见惯的人的能力(例如手指的灵活性或识别物体的能力等)相媲美。“机器人与人相比,它能做得更好的一系列事情要远远少于不能做得更好的事情。”剑桥梅隆学院的汤姆·史密斯这样指出。由此我们可以推知,本题的正确答案应是C“机器人仍然有许多事情还不能做”。
