He’s happy to see you and helps you take your school things to your room. He listens to you talk about your school life and tells you a new joke.

【解析】

試題分析：本文介紹了一種新型的機(jī)器人NAO，它有著小巧的身體、大大的眼睛和很大的頭，它能聽(tīng)能說(shuō)，甚至能自己學(xué)習(xí)和思考、表達(dá)情感，能活動(dòng)，會(huì)表演，價(jià)值16000美金，將在2040年前進(jìn)入到人們的家庭。

1.詞義猜測(cè)題。結(jié)合下文He’s happy to see you and helps you take your school things to your room. 他很高興看到你，幫你把學(xué)習(xí)用品拿到你的房間。可知上文應(yīng)是機(jī)器人迎接你，故選C。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第一段And he tells you to call your cousin and to say happy birthday.給表弟打電話是對(duì)他說(shuō)生日快樂(lè)的，故選A。

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第二段NAO has a small body, big eyes and a large head.NAO有小巧的身體、大大的眼睛和很大的頭，故選B。

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中第二段His creators (創(chuàng)造者) predict that the robot will be in people’s homes before 2040.他的創(chuàng)造者預(yù)測(cè)這種機(jī)器人在2040年之前將進(jìn)入人們的家庭。也就是大約30年后，故選D。

5.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中句子And then he helps you with your homework.He is a self-guided robot. He listens and talks, and he even learns and thinks for himself. 可知A、B、D三項(xiàng)不正確；根據(jù)This $16,000 robot knows who you are.可知$16,000要大于 fifteen thousand dollars，故選C。
