【单选题】

Predictions of many robots in industry have yet come true. For ten years or more, manufacturers of big robots have explained how their machines can make industry more competitive and productive. The maker for{{U}} (21) {{/U}}robots is oversupplied now, and the driving force of the robotics(机器人学) revolution is{{U}} (22) {{/U}}to be with makers of machines that handle a few kilos at most.
"Heavy-robot manufacturers are in some difficulty{{U}} (23) {{/U}}finding customer. They are offering big{{U}} (24) {{/U}}just to get in the door. There has been a{{U}} (23) {{/U}}growth everywhere in the numbers of robots, so we admit we are either deceiving{{U}} (26) {{/U}}or that the market is slowly growing. "said John Reekie, chairman ofColen Robotics. "The following things must happen{{U}} (27) {{/U}}the robotics revolution to occur. We must achieve widespread robot literacy,{{U}} (28) {{/U}}there has been a computer{{U}} (29) {{/U}} program, there must be a robot prices.{{U}} (30) {{/U}}, some kind of artificial intelligence needs to be{{U}} (31) {{/U}}."
Colen makes educational robots and machine tools. It is small{{U}} (32) {{/U}}with companies likeASEA、or Fujitsu FanuC、ButColen with others and departments in universities such as Surrey, Manchester, andDurham possess an advantage{{U}} (33) {{/U}}. the giants. The big companies sell very expensive {{U}} (34) {{/U}}to businesses with expert knowledge in automation. The{{U}} (35) {{/U}}companies make robots for teaching people, and now they have realized that there is a need for small,{{U}} (36) {{/U}}robots that they can meet.
The little companies either bring their educational machines{{U}} (37) {{/U}}an industrial standard or design from the start. One technique that they all adopt is to choose{{U}} (38) {{/U}}components where possible. The major cost of making{{U}} (39) {{/U}}their models is the electronics, which will fall in price. There is{{U}} (40) {{/U}}scope for reductions in mechanical costs. The sue of standard parts, which are easily replaced, should give these robots a mechanical life of something in the order of five years.
