A new walking, talking robot from Japan which has black hair and a woman’s face that can smile will attend a fashion show. It has trimmed down(減少)to 43kg, but it still hasn’t reached the safety standards required to share the catwalk with human models.
Developers at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, a government-backed organization, said their “cybernetic(全自動控制的)human” wasn’t ready to help with daily housework or work side by side with people—as many hope robots will be able to do in the future.
“In technology, it hasn’t reached that level,” said Hirohisa Hirukawa, one of the robot’s developers. “Even as a fashion model, people in the industry told us she was short and had a rather ordinary figure.”
For now, the 158 cm tall black-haired robot named HRP-4C—whose predecessor(前任)had weighed 58 kg — will mainly serve to draw and entertain crowds. Developers said the robot may be used in amusement parks or to perform human movement, as an exercise instructor, for instance.
HRP-4C was designed to look like an ordinary Japnese woman, although its silver-and-black body reminds people of a space suit. It will appear in a Tokyo fashion show — without any clothes — in a special part just for the robot next week.
The robotic framework(框架)for HRP-4C, without the face and other coverings, will go on sale for about 20 million yen(日元) each. Its programming technology will be made public so other people can come up with fun moves for the robot, the scientists said.
Japan is one of the leading robotics industries in the world, and the government is pushing to develop the industry as a road to growth.
【小題1】What do we know about HRP-4C’s predecessor?
A.It is shorter than HRP-4C . B.It is cleverer than HRP-4C .
C.It is taller than HRP-4C . D.It is heavier than HRP-4C .
【小題2】According to the passage, how many of the following could HRP-4C do?
a. drawing pictures
b. walking and talking
c. doing housework
d. working with people
e. smiling
A.2 | B.3 | C.4 | D.5 |
A.It wears a space suit. |
B.Its price is 20 million dollars. |
C.It can be used as an exercise instructor. |
D.As a fashion model, it has a perfect figure. |
A.make money | B.make new frameworks |
C.let other people improve it | D.help make new face and coverings |
