A 1.6-meter tall robot may soon become the best friend for lonely elderly people, as Chinese scientists are making the final sprint(冲刺)toward its market launch(投放), said a senior researcher on the robot project on Saturday.
“We are working on testing the exact functions and ways to reduce the cost in preparations for an expected market launch of the robot in two to three years,” said Li Ruifeng, a member of the project.
He said the team hoped to reduce the cost so that the robot can be priced at 30,000 to 50,000 yuan, which is expected to be an affordable price for most of China's better-off families.
The robot has been developed with the functions of fetching food, medicine, sounding alarms in case of water or gas leakage, sending texts or video images via wireless communications, and even singing a song or playing chess to entertain its masters.
Li said that the robot, developed independently in China, has technology at the same level as those in western labs.
China set about the research of the robot in 2007, when it was listed as a national key project. It is backed by government funding(拨款). China has the world's largest elderly population with 159 million people over 60, accounting for 12 percent of its total population. According to a survey by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, more than 10 million caregivers and nurses are needed to attend the elderly population, as most of Chinese elderly prefer to live their retired lives at home.

Japan is very serious about robotics (机器人技术). If robots are going to fit in, they probably need to learn the Japanese custom of serving tea. Fortunately, researchers at the University of Tokyo are just exploring that. In a show this week, a humanoid (人形机器人)with camera eyes made by Kawada Industries Inc. poured tea from a bottle into a cup. Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate(模仿)life with robot technology.
“A human being may be faster, but you'd have to say ‘Thank you’ ,” said Professor Tomomasa Sato from the University of Tokyo. “That's the best part about a robot. You don't have to feel bad about asking it to do things.”
Sato believes Japan, a rapidly aging society where more than a fifth of the population is 65 or older, will lead the world in designing robots to care for the elderly, sick and bedridden(长期卧床的).
Already, monitoring technologies, such as sensors that automatically turn on lights when people enter a room, are becoming widespread in Japan.
The walking, child-size Asimo from Honda Motor Co. greets people at show-rooms. NEC Corp. has developed a smaller robot-on-wheels companion called Papero. A seal robot available since 2004 can entertain the elderly and others in need of fuzzy companionship.
Sato says his experimental room is raising awareness about privacy questions that may arise when electronic devices (设备) monitor a person's movements down to the smallest detail.
On the bright side, the tea-pouring humanoid has been programmed to do the dishes.
文章大意:在日本,机器人被广泛使用,可以在家倒茶、可以照顾老年人的日常起居,也可以陪人娱乐。现在在日本机器人越来越受欢迎。
6.What is the best title of this passage?
A.“Thank You” Will Never Be Needed in Japan
B.Monitoring Technologies Are Widespread in Japan
C.Robot Is Designed to Care for the Elderly
D.Robot Technologies Are Widespread in Daily Life in Japan
答案:D 标题归纳题。结合全文可知,文章主要讲述的是在日本使用机器人的情况,故D项最适合做文章标题。
7.The underlined word “embedded” in Paragraph 1 probably means________.
A.fixed B.established
C.settled D.rooted
答案:A 词义猜测题。由画线词所在句“...that has sensors embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling...”及常识可推知,embed的意思为”安装”,与fix的意思相近。
8.According to Professor Sato,________.
A.the robot serves tea much faster than a human being
B.the robot does anything like human beings
C.tea-serving robot helps to form laziness of the aging society
D.tea-serving robot doesn't need any reward for the service
答案:D 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“That's the best part about a robot.You don't have to feel bad about asking it to do things.”可推测,机器人为人类服务不需要任何回报,所以选D。
9.We can infer from the passage that________.
A.people are afraid of being monitored by robots
B.the technology of robots has been highlighted in Japan
C.robots can completely take the place of human beings
D.people's privacy should be strictly protected
答案:B 推理判断题。由全文内容,特别是第一段第一句可以推断出,日本很重视机器人技术。

克莱尔并不想把机器人留在家里,特别是在她丈夫离家三周的这个期间。但是克莱尔被拉里说服了,他说,机器人不会伤害她,也不会让别人来伤害她。(1)but连接两个并列分句。在第一个并列分句中,含有一个as引导的时间状语从句;在第二个分句中,含有一个that引导的宾语从句。to be harmed是不定式的被动形式,作宾语补足语。

①It was clear that they had no desire for peace.
很明显他们没有对和平的渴望。
②It seems that Lao Wu's idea is more practical.
看起来老吴的意见更实际一些。

(1)It is obvious to the students________they should get well prepared for their future.
答案:that 空格处应是一个主语从句的引导词,因该主语从句不缺成分,且句意完整,故应用不作任何成分的连词that来引导。it为形式主语,that引导的从句为真正的主语。(2)It was never clear________the man hadn't reported the accident sooner.
答案:why 考查主语从句。这里的it是形式主语,真正的主语是“________the man hadn't reported the accident sooner.”根据句意,原句要表达的是“为什么这个人没有立马报案这件事还未查明”。所以应填why。4.She wasn't like Gladys Claffern, one of the richest and most powerful women around.
她跟格拉迪丝·克拉芬不一样,格拉迪丝是一个远近闻名的有钱有势的女人。
本句中one of the richest and most powerful women around是Gladys Claffern的同位语。同位语是用来对名词(或代词)作进一步解释的,它可以是单词、短语或从句。①Mr. Smith, our new teacher, is very kind to us.
我们的新老师史密斯先生对我们很好。
②He himself told me that his brother John was a world-famous doctor.
他本人对我讲他的兄长约翰是一位世界闻名的医生。
③He always works hard even if he knows the fact that he is not in good health.
他总是努力工作,尽管他知道他身体不好这个事实。提示:要注意名词(或代词)与它的同位语分隔的现象。如:
The thought came to me that I would invite him to McDonald's.
当时我产生一个念头,即我要请他吃麦当劳。
(同位语从句that I would invite him to McDonald's与the thought被came to me分隔。翻译时,可加上“即”或用冒号、破折号。)活学活用
(1)(真题改编·浙江)The only way to succeed at the highest level is to have total belief ________ you are better than anyone else on the sports field.
答案:that 本题考查同位语从句的引导词。句意:高层次的成功的唯一方法就是要相信在体育运动方面你比任何人都要强。分析结构可知,此处 belief后接了同位语从句,从句不缺少成分,应用that引导。
(2)I made a promise to myself ________ this year, my first year in high school, would be different.
答案:that 本题考查同位语从句。句意:我自己许诺,今年,我在高中的第一年,会不同的。本从句是同位语从句,说明promise的内容。且从句中不缺少句子成分,故用连词that引导。5.As she turned around, there stood Gladys Claffern.
她刚一转过身去,就看到格拉迪丝·克拉芬站在那儿。
(1)本句中there stood Gladys Claffern是倒装句式,并且是全部倒装。句子的主语是Gladys Claffern,谓语是stood,there作地点状语。正常语序应是“Gladys Claffern stood there”。
(2)当here,there,now,then,in,down,out,up,off,away等表示地点、时间和方位的副词位于句首,谓语动词是come,go,live,lie,stand等,且主语是名词时,句子用完全倒装。其中谓语动词多用一般现在时或者一般过去时,而不能用进行时态,且当主语是代词时,不用倒装结构。
①There stands an old pine tree in front of our classroom.
我们教室前有一棵老松树。
②The door opened and in came Mr. Smith.
门开了,史密斯先生走了进来。活学活用
(1)补全句子
看!你老师来了。
Look! Here ________ ________ ________.
答案:comes your teacher 由here, there等作状语位于句首,谓语是come, go, rush, run等不及物动词,且主语是名词,主谓要全部倒装。
(2)汉译英
这儿有年轻人穿的外衣。
_______________________________________________
答案:Here are coats for young people.6.It was then that Claire realized that Tony had opened the curtains of the front window.
也就在这时候,克莱尔才意识到托尼早就把前边窗户的窗帘拉开了。
本句结构为强调句式。其结构为:It is/was+被强调部分+that(who)...。强调部分可以是句子的主语、宾语、状语等。
It was Tom and Jack that(who)saw an interesting film in Binhai Cinema last night.
昨天晚上在滨海电影院看了一场有趣的电影的是汤姆和杰克。(强调主语)It was an interesting film that Tom and Jack saw in Binhai Cinema last night.
昨天晚上汤姆和杰克在滨海电影院看的是一场有趣的电影。(强调宾语)
It was last night that Tom and Jack saw an interesting film in Binhai Cinema.
汤姆和杰克是昨天晚上在滨海电影院看的一场有趣的电影。(强调状语)提示:
(1)该句式与It is...that句式中it作形式主语的句式有区别:
在强调句式中,如果把It is(was)...that去掉,整个句子意思仍然非常完整,例如把上述例句中It was...that去掉后,句子变为:
Last night Tom and Jack saw an interesting film in Binhai Cinema.
昨天晚上汤姆和杰克在滨海电影院看了一场有趣的电影。
在It作形式主语的句式中,如果把It is (was)...that去掉,剩下的部分就无法组成一个意义完整的句子。(2)这个强调句式不能用来强调谓语动词。加强谓语动词的语气,只能靠语调或助动词,或另外一个句子来表示。例如,我们可以用助动词do来强调谓语动词,do须随时态变化而变化,通常用于一般现在时或一般过去时。
Tom and Jack did see an interesting film in Binhai Cinema last night.
昨晚,汤姆和杰克在滨海电影院的确看了一场有趣的电影。活学活用
(1)(2015真题改编·重庆) Bach died in 1750, but it was not until the early 19th century________his musical gift was fully recognized.
答案:that 句意:马赫死于1750年,但直到19世纪他的音乐天赋才被承认。强调句与not until 连用。It be not until that … 故填that。(2)(真题改编·重庆)It was with the help of the local guide ________ the mountain climber was rescued.
答案:that 本题考查强调句。句意:是在当地导游的帮助下登山者被救的。分析结构可知,此处是强调句,强调的是句子的状语with the help of the local guide;由强调句的基本句子结构“It is/was+被强调部分+that(强调人可以用who)+其他”可知应填that。(3)判断正误(T/F)
直到雨停了我才回家。
①It was until the rain stopped that I didn't go home.( )

历史研究表明在22世纪许多人讲到人们曾买机器人作为家庭装修工的情况。
句中that引导一个宾语从句;many people told stories about后面有一个how引导的宾语从句。在由that引导的宾语从句中,由于连词that只具有引导作用,并无具体意义,而且不在句中充当成分,因此在口语或非正式文体中常可省略,省略之后对原句并无影响。如:
She said (that) she couldn't go with him because she had a lot to do that night.
她说因为那天晚上她有很多事情要做,所以不能和他一起去了。提示:在下列情况下,引导宾语从句的that最好不要省略:
(1)主从句之间有插入语时。如:
It says here, on this card, that it was used in plays.
卡片上写着,它过去是演戏用的。
(2)若出现两个或两个以上的that宾语从句,且由并列连词连接时,只有第一个连接词that可以省去,其余需保留。如:
Linda said (that) she would go to meet Tom in person and that she wouldn't tell anyone about the appointment.
琳达说她会亲自去见汤姆,并且不会告诉任何人这次约会的事情。活学活用
(1)—I believe______you've done your best and________things will improve.
—Thank you.
答案:that/ /; that that引导多个宾语从句时,第一个连接词that可以省去,其余需保留。
(2)Having checked the doors were closed, and______all the lights were off, the boy opened the door to his bedroom.
答案:that 句意:确保门关上了,且所有的灯都关上了之后,那个男孩打开门进了他的卧室。checked后跟了两个宾语从句,第一个从句的引导词that省略了。2.She planned to write a few every afternoon because from then on until Christmas her time would be organized into shopping, cooking as well as writing the cards.
她计划每天下午都写几张卡片。因为从那时起直到圣诞节,她的时间都安排在了购物、做饭和写卡片上。
本句是一个主从复合句,含有because引导的原因状语从句;from then on until Christmas在从句中充当状语,shopping, cooking, writing the cards为并列宾语。as well as意为“除……之外(还),也,和”。from then on表示“从那以后”“从那时起”,它是一个固定短语,用作时间状语。如:
From then on, he never spoke to me.
从那时起,他没有同我说过话。
From then on, no one killed a seagull.
从那以后,没有人捕杀海鸥了。
from now on表示“从今以后”,也是一个用作时间状语的固定短语。如:
From now on, I will do morning exercises every day.
从今以后,我每天都要做早操。活学活用

英语中动词有两种语态:主动语态和被动语态。主动语态表示主语是动作的执行者,被动语态表示主语是动作的承受者。汉语中常用“被”“给”“由”“受”等词来表示被动,而英语中由“助动词be+及物动词的过去分词”构成。
Ⅰ.各种时态的被动结构
一般现在时、一般过去时、现在进行时、过去进行时、现在完成时和过去完成时的被动结构是考查重点。被动语态的时态、人称和数的变化主要体现在be的变化上,其变化形式与系动词be的完全一样。以do为例:Everyone's pay will be increased next year by 5%.
明年每人的工资将增加五个百分点。
It was the first time that I had been criticized in public.
那是我第一次在公众场合挨批。
The work will have been finished by the end of next month.
到下月底前这项工作将会完成。
The house is quite old. It was built in 1950.

(1)(2015真题改编·重庆) In my hometown, there is always a harvest supper for the farmers after all the wheat________(be)cut.
答案:has been 句意:在我的家乡,麦子丰收过后农民会有一个庆祝晚餐,现在完成时表示动作已经完成,才举行庆祝活动。
(2)(2015真题改编·北京)—Did you enjoy the party?
—Yes.We________(treat)well by our hosts.
答案:were treated 句意:——你喜欢这个聚会吗?——是的,我们的主人很好地招待了我们。根据上一句中的did可知用一般过去时;且we和treated是逻辑上的动宾关系,用被动语态。空中应用一般过去时的被动语态,故填 were treated。
(3)(2015真题改编·四川) More expressways in Sichuan soon________(build) to promote the local economy.
答案:will be built 句意:四川将建设更多的高速公路以促进当地的经济。根据时间状语soon可知,考查将来时;又因为expressways与build构成被动关系,故填will be built。Ⅱ.主动语态表被动意义
1.有些动词如read, write, clean, wash, iron, burn, draw, cook, keep, cut, open, blow, peel, sell, act等用作不及物动词且表示主语的某种属性时,常和副词well, easily, smoothly等连用,且通常用主动结构表示被动含义。这些动词的主语一般是表物的词,且这些物往往具有某种内在的特点,这些句子的时态多用一般现在时或一般将来时。例如:
This pen writes smoothly.
这笔写起来很流畅。
The cloth washes well.
这种布料耐洗。2.动词need, require, want, be worth后加v.-ing的主动结构表被动意义。
My watch can't work; it needs repairing.
我的手表不能用了,需要修了。
This film is really worth seeing.
这部电影的确值得看。
Ⅲ.不用于被动语态的情形
1.不及物动词(短语)如appear, happen, remain, take place, come about, break out, come true等没有被动语态。
A fire broke out during the night.
夜间发生了火灾。Ⅳ.动词不定式的被动形式和用法
当不定式的逻辑主语是这个不定式所表示的动作的承受者时,不定式一般要用被动形式。不定式的被动式可分为一般时和完成时。
一般时:to be done表示动词不定式的动作发生在谓语动词之后或同时发生。
完成时:to have been done表示不定式的动作发生在谓语动词之前。
He didn't expect the book to be received so well.
他没想到这本书会受到如此热烈的欢迎。
I'm pleased to have been given this opportunity.
给了我这次机会我很高兴。典题赏析
(4)(真题改编·北京)There are still many problems ________ (solve) before we are ready for a long stay on the Moon.
答案:to be solved 考查非谓语动词的用法。根据主语problems和solve之间的逻辑关系和从句的内容可知,这些问题还没有得到解决,故应用不定式表示还未发生的动作。句意:在准备好长期待在月球上之前我们还有许多问题需要解决。Ⅴ.不定式的主动形式表被动意义
1.动词不定式放于名词或代词之后作定语,不定式和名词之间构成逻辑上的动宾关系,同时又和句中另一名词或代词构成逻辑上的主谓关系时,不定式的主动形式表示被动含义。
Would you bring me a bench to sit on?
你给我拿个凳子来坐好吗?典题赏析
(5)With the world changing fast, we have something new________(deal) with all by ourselves every day.
答案:to deal deal with作代词something的后置定语与something构成逻辑上的动宾关系,同时又和句子的主语we构成逻辑上的主谓关系,故使用deal with的主动形式表被动意义。[点津]
如果动词不定式作后置定语,不定式和所修饰的词构成逻辑上的动宾关系,但其逻辑主语不是句子的主语时,则使用动词不定式的被动形式。
I'll go to the post office. Do you have a letter to be posted?
我要去邮局。你有信要寄吗?
(post与主语you之间不存在主动关系,只和前面letter构成逻辑上的动宾关系。)2.在“主语+be+形容词+不定式”句型中,形容词后跟不定式作状语,而句子的主语又是动词不定式的逻辑宾语时,常用不定式的主动形式表达被动含义。这样的形容词很多,常用的有:amusing, cheap, comfortable, dangerous, difficult, easy, fit, hard, important, impossible, interesting, nice, pleasant, funny, heavy, light等。
That question is difficult to answer.
那个问题不容易回答。典题赏析
(6)Tom asked the candy makers if they could make the chocolate easier ________(break) into small pieces.
答案:to break 考查非谓语动词。句意:汤姆问糖果制造商他们能否把巧克力制作得更易弄碎。该句中的形容词easier为宾语补足语,相当于表语的作用,其后应该使用不定式结构,类似于It is+adj.+to do...结构,故填to break。3.在too...to...结构中,不定式前面可加逻辑主语,所以应用主动形式表示被动意义。
This book is too expensive(for me)to buy.
这本书太贵,我买不起。
4.在there be...句型中,当动词不定式修饰名词作定语时,不定式用主动形式作定语重点在人,用被动形式作定语重点在物。比较:
There is a lot of work to do.(用to do可看成是for us to do)
There is a lot of work to be done.(用to be done“谁”做工作不明确)
5.be to blame常用主动表示被动。
Who is to blame for starting the fire?谁应为放火受责备?
典题赏析
(7)Mr Green stood up in defence of the 16-year-old boy, saying that he was not the one ________(blame).
答案:to blame to blame在句中作the one的定语。to blame为固定用法,用主动形式表达被动意义。句意为“格林先生站出来为那个16岁的男孩辩护,他说那个男孩不该受责备。”用所给动词的适当形式填空

Claude Sammut, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of New South Wales in Australia, said it would soon be possible for robots to defeat the stars of the future.
For many years, Mr Sammut has been a member of a project called RoboCup, where robots have been programmed to learn how to play football and compete against others in a football match.
As he explains, the robots are having difficulty in learning how to control the ball and move the ball on their own, but he is still full of confidence that one day in the future they will show the same skills as Wayne Rooney, who is one of the best football players in the world.
Mr Sammut also said,“In 1968, John McCarthy and Donald Michie made a bet with David Levy, who was then the chess champion in Scotland, that within 10 years a computer program would be able to beat him. It took a little bit longer than 10 years (nearly 30 years) but eventually such programs came into being.”
“In the same spirit of a grand challenge, RoboCup aims to develop a team of robots that can defeat the world soccer champion team by the year 2050. To achieve this, or come even closer to the ambition, the robots will have to be able to sense and act in completely unstructured environments. This will require major advances in perception(感知), decision making, learning, and cooperative behaviors. Considering robots are integrated hardware and software systems, great advances will also be needed in sensors (传感器) , energy storage, and materials.”
文章大意:本文介绍了未来的足球队,它们在2050年有可能打败人类最好的足球队。

A.play computer football games
B.play football and win in real matches

答案:B 细节理解题。根据第二段“...where robots have been programmed to learn how to play football and compete against others in a football match.”可知应选B。
2.What kind of difficulties are the robots facing in playing football?
A.They can't run as fast as real people.
B.They can't recognize their partners accurately.
C.They can't control the ball well by themselves.
D.They can't pass the ball to their partners.
答案:C 细节理解题。根据第三段“...the robots are having difficulty in learning how to control the ball and move the ball on their own...”可知应选C。
3.The idea of designing a computer program that could defeat a chess champion came forth ________.
A.in 1968 B.in 1978
C.in the 1990s D.30 years ago
答案:A 细节理解题。根据第四段“In 1968,John McCarthy and Donald Michie made a bet with David Levy, who was then the chess champion in Scotland...”可知应选A。
4.What's the best title for this passage?
A.Scientists' Wisdom in Designing Robot Football Players
B.Robot Football Players to Beat the World's Best Team by 2050
C.Robot Football Players' Bright Future
D.Mr Sammut—the Father of Robot Football Players

The British Museum first opened in the 18th Century largely based on the collections of the scientist Sir Hans Sloane.
The current neoclassical building was founded nearly a century later and is quadrangular(四角形的)with four wings and a great classical appearance. Inside is a courtyard, the Great Court, covered with a special modern addition—a spiraling glass and steel roof which was designed by Norman Foster and completed in 2000. The courtyard surrounds the round Reading Room with a copper domed(有穹顶的) ceiling the same size as the dome of St Peter's in Rome.
The museum, one of the oldest in the world, is Britain's largest museum, and widely considered to be one of the world's greatest museums of human history and culture. The permanent collection is made up of over 8 million objects spanning the history of the world's cultures from the stone tools of early man to twentieth-century prints. The collection includes controversial (有争议的) items including the Elgin Marbles from the Parthenon in Greece, Egyptian mummies and the Rosetta Stone.
The expansion of the museum over the years has resulted in the creation of several branch institutions including the Natural History Museum in South Kensington. The British Library previously occupied the Reading Room but in 1997 moved to a new site next to St Pancras Station on Euston Road. There are frequent special exhibitions of international significance.
Opening Times: The museum is open daily from 10:00 am to 5:30 pm. On Fridays it stays open until 8:30 pm. Entry to the museum is free, although a charge may be made for entry to temporary exhibitions.
Address: Great Russell Street, London WClB 3DG.
Nearest Underground Stations: Tottenham Court Road (5-minute walk ), Russell Square (6-minute walk) and Holborn (7-minute walk).
Website:http: //www. britishmuseum, org/.
文章大意:本文介绍了英国国家博物馆的情况,介绍了其历史发展,还提供了参观博物馆的时间表和交通路线。
5.When the British Museum opened originally, it mainly included________.
A.the Rosetta Stone B.the Elgin Marbles
C.Hans Sloane's collections D.Egyptian mummies
答案:C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的largely based on the collections of the scientist Sir Hans Sloane可知,博物馆最初的馆藏品主要是科学家Sir Hans Sloane的收藏品。
6.What's the writer's purpose in mentioning St Peter's?
A.To tell us an interesting story.
B.To introduce its great history.
C.To compare it to the Reading Room.
D.To show the size of the Reading Room's dome.
答案:D 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可以推知,作者提到它的目的是说明阅览室穹顶的大小。
7.People would like to visit the British Museum on Friday probably because they________.
A.can't visit its website
B.are busy with work in the daytime
C.can see exhibitions free of charge
D.can pay less money for the ticket
答案:B 推理判断题。根据倒数第四段介绍的博物馆开放的时间,尤其是第二句“On Fridays it stays open until 8:30 pm.”可知,博物馆周五的闭馆时间为8:30 pm。由此可推知,人们选择在周五参观博物馆有可能是因为白天没有时间。
8.Which underground station is closest to the British Museum?
A.Tottenham Court Road.
B.Russell Square.
C.Euston Road.
D.Holborn.
答案:A 细节理解题。倒数第二段提供了博物馆附近的几个地铁站名称以及从这几个地铁站步行到博物馆所需要的时间。通过比较可知,Tottenham Court Road站离博物馆最近。

I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only. What we all know, a good learning environment is of greatly importance if we want to study English well. Classes teaching in English provide students for a better environment. When English is an only language in class, students will have more opportunity to practise listening and speaking. However, there were problems with this method. Sometimes we may find difficult to follow the teacher and some slow learners may even give up learn English. In spite of these difficulties, but I believe practice makes perfect. With enough practice, we can overcome the difficulties and benefit from English classes in the long run.

The Jibo robot,arranged to ship later this year,is designed to be a personalized assistant.You can talk to the robot,ask it questions,and make requests for it to perform different tasks.The robot doesn't just deliver general answers to questions;it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household.It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home.They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.
Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market.The company's “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store,which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product's location in the store.It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans,the more it learns.But Oshbot,like other social robots,is not intended to replace workers,but to work alongside other employees.“We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us,but with us,”said Breazeal.
