Reading
I Read the text and choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D).

Picture the scene: you’re walking around a large shop, struggling to find a product, when you hear a
voice behind you. “Can I help you?” When you turn around, though, you get a shock; there, standing
obediently, is a robot! This might sound like a scene from a sci-fi film, but robots like this actually exist.
In 1998, scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute in Stuttgart began working on a ‘mobile assistant robot’.
Nowadays, most robots are designed to do dangerous or repetitive jobs in factories, but these
scientists wanted to create a robot that could interact with people, and help them in their everyday
lives – at home and in public places like hotels and hospitals. They called it the ‘Care-O-bot®’, and in
January 2015, the Care-O-bot® 4 was released, the 4th generation of this robot.
The Care-O-bot® 4 is the first Care-O-bot® robot that has been used in real-life situations. In October
2016, ‘Paul’ began working at a shop in Ingolstadt – and it has kept its job there ever since. So, what
are Paul’s duties? First, it greets customers at the entrance, and asks them if they need help locating a
product. If they do, it leads the customer to the appropriate shelf, making small talk on the way. Paul
isn’t a salesperson, though, so if the customer has a question about the product, it calls a human
salesperson for assistance. Then, before it returns to the entrance, it asks the customer for feedback.
The results? Most customers feel very comfortable around Paul. This is because Paul was designed to
be social. By examining their facial expressions and tone of voice, it can recognise a customer’s mood.
Then, it can choose appropriate subjects to talk about.
Today, Care-O-bot® 4 works in three other shops. And its designers want to test it in other
environments, such as in airports and hospitals. The Care-O-bot® 4 is one of the most advanced
robots in the world – and it shows how far robotic technology has come in such a short time.

1 Care-O-bot® was designed to 4 According to the writer, customers like Paul

B do dangerous tasks. A has a relaxing voice.
C work closely with people. B understands their feelings.
D help people in the workplace. C puts them in a better mood.

2 The phrase ‘making small talk’ (third paragraph)

B clearly and slowly. A test it in different countries.
C about unimportant things. B use it in other real-life environments.
D using easily-understood words. C improve it before it works elsewhere.
D make it into the best robot in the world.
3 What is Paul not able to do?
A offer assistance to customers
B direct customers to a product
C walk with customers around the shop
D give detailed information about a product
