Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer
to each of the questions form 1 to 5.

One of the greatest advantages of robots is that they can work in situations that are dangerous or harmful
for humans. Already, robots are working in the plastics industry and in chemical and industrial equipment
industries. One of the most common uses of robots is still in automobile factories. They can do the heavy,
unpleasant, or dangerous work. These kinds of industrial robots are not usually "mobile". The work they need to do
is brought to them, like human workers. For example, the continuous smell of paint has a harmful effect on
painters, but it doesn't "bother"a robot. Robots can work in nuclear power plants and in undersea research stations
that might be dangerous for cars on an assembly line, for example. The robot industry is a big business. By the
middle of the 1990s, Japan led the world in robot production with more than 71,000 industrial robots at work.
Both the United States and Japan, as well as other countries, continue to develop more advanced robots. Robots
can now be made to perform more complex jobs. Robots can make decisions while they are working and learn
from their mistakes. Robots can now see with TV camera "eyes." They can easily hear and can even speak using

a voice made by a computer. But it is difficult to make a robot "understand." Thinking and understanding are
very human qualities. The robots of the future will probably be very complex. They will be able to perform many
humanlike tasks. Robots and other technology will make the future a very interesting place!

46. We can infer from the passage that by the middle of the 1990s_____________________.

A. only Japan had used robots in production

B. Japan and the USA were the only countries to use robots
C. some countries had used robots in industrial production
D. Japan led the world in production thanks to robots

47. Which of the following are robots NOT be able to do?

A. To speak using a voice made by a computer B. To think and understand

C. To make decisions at work D. To learn from mistakes

48. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the robots of the future?

A. They will probably be very complicated.
B. They will be able to do humanlike tasks.

C. They will contribute to making the future more interesting.
D. They will replace human workers in all kinds of work.

49. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word "bother"in the first paragraph?

A. “cancel” B. “change” C.“upset” D. “terminate”

50. Which of the following can be the opposite of the word "mobile"in the first paragraph?
