阅读理解 Chinese researchers have developed a robot designed to help doctors treat the new coronavirus (新冠病毒) and other highly contagious diseases. The robot can perform some of the same medical examination tasks as doctors. For example, the device can perform ultrasounds, collect fluid samples from a person's mouth and listen to sounds made by a patient's organs. Cameras record the robot's activities, which are controlled remotely so doctors can avoid coming in close contact with infected patients. Doctors and other medical workers can operate the machine from a nearby room, or from much farther away. The robot's main designer is Zheng Gangtie, an engineer and professor at China's Tsinghua University in Beijing. "Doctors are all very brave," Zheng said. "But this virus is just too contagious. . . We can use robots to perform the most dangerous? tasks." Zheng said a friend of his, the head of Beijing s Tsinghua Changgung Hospital, told him that one of the biggest problems in dealing with COVID-19 was that health care workers treating patients were getting infected themselves. Zheng said he wanted to do something to help this situation. So the engineer gathered a team and went to work on the robotic device. Zheng said the team was able to convert two robotic arms. The devices use the same technology! that is used for space equipment, including moon explorers. The new robit is almost completely automated. Zheng said. It can even disinfect itself after performing actions involving patient contact. However. Zheng said he had heard from some doctors that ii would be better not to build such robots to be fully automatic. This is because many patients still desire a personal presence to help calm them during treatment.     The team currently has two robots and both have been tested by doctors at hospitals in Beijing. One machine was taken to Wuhan's Union Hospital where doctors were being trained to use it. The plan is to use the robot to help treat coronavirus patients, along with assistance from nurses and other hospital workers. Zheng would like to build more of the robots, but said money from the university has run out. About S 72,000 has been spent on each robot. He said he does not plan to commercialize the design, but hopes that a company can begin that process. （1） What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A . The robot can record doctors' activities. B . The robot can carry out actions automatically. C . The robot can assist doctors to examine patients. D . The robot can collect samples of patients' organs. （2） The underlined word "disinfect" in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to "_____". A . affect B . clean C . update D . fix （3） What can we infer about the robot according to Zheng Gangtie? A . It is very costly to make. B . It is highly recognized by doctors. C . It can be purchased in the market soon. D . It can also be used in moon exploration. （4） What is the main purpose of the text? A . To introduce a new type of medical robot. B . To provide guidance on treating COYID-19. C . To describe the current condition of COVID-19. D . To promote the commercialization of a new robot. 答案： C B A A
