In our lives we can see more and more robots in different places. They are helpful and do lots of things. They can not only work indoors, but also outdoors. They can even do tasks that nobody wants to do.
One special robot can help in fast-food restaurants. At first, the robot only made burgers. But workers thought it could do more. Now, the robot can make many kinds of food like French fries and fried onions. It works faster than people because it can do more tasks at the same time. So it saves a lot of time. Also, the robot knows exactly when the food is ready. Workers are happy that they don't have to do so much work, especially at night.
Another special robot can even do tasks that are difficult or dangerous. It is so big that it can carry things of up to 40 kg and can reach as high as ten metres too. It helps workers fix railway lines. Since electricity(电) can make some workers in danger and even fall sometimes, the robot can help them solve these problems and make their lives much safer.
These unusual robots seem to be doing good jobs, but they still need help from people. People control robots with a computer or a remote control(遥控器) and a VR headset(虚拟现实头盔). Scientists say robots can help in more places and play a more important part in the near future.
1. Why can the special robot in fast-food restaurants work faster than people?
A. Because it is big.
B. Because it is tall.
C. Because it is heavy.
D. Because it can do more tasks at the same time.
2. What does the underlined word "fix" mean?
A. Replace.
B. Change.
C. Repair.
D. Discover.
3. What can we infer from paragraph 4?
A. There will be fewer robots in our homes to do good jobs.
B. These special robots can't work without people's help.
C. People can ask the robots to do all things.
D. Robots can't do tasks that nobody wants to do.
4. What's the best title for the passage?
A. The Unusual Robots
B. The Fastest Robots
C. The Biggest Robots
D. The Smallest Robots

本文主要介绍了当今有很多不同寻常的机器人在做不同的工作。
1. D 2. C 3. B 4. A
1. D 2. C 3. B 4. A
解析
【分析】
做阅读理解选择题时,需回到原文定位对应信息,结合题干要求逐一分析选项:第1题找快餐店机器人速度快的原因;第2题猜测划线词fix的含义;第3题从第四段推断结论;第4题概括文章主旨标题。
【解析】
1. 根据第二段原文“It works faster than people because it can do more tasks at the same time.”可知,快餐店机器人速度快是因为能同时做更多任务,对应选项D。
2. 第三段提到机器人帮助工人fix铁路线,结合语境,铁路线需要修理,故fix意为“修理”,对应选项C。
3. 第四段明确说明“they still need help from people”,即机器人不能脱离人类帮助工作,对应选项B。
4. 全文围绕不同功能的特殊机器人展开介绍,核心是“不寻常的机器人”,对应选项A。
