20.A 1.6 meter tall robot may soon become the best friend for lonely elderly people,as Chinese scientists are making the final sprint(冲刺)toward its market launch(投放),said a senior researcher on the robot project on Saturday."We are working on testing the exact functions and ways to reduce the cost in preparations for an expected market launch of the robot in two to three years,"said Li Ruifeng,a member of the project.
