【题目】根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。
Driving could soon be a far more pleasant experience thanks to a personal in-car robot being developed by researchers. The robot, which is called “Affective Intelligent Driving Agent (AIDA)” will be able to tell you the best route home based on traffic reports, remind you to pick up petrol and suggest places you may like to visit. The robot, which sits on the dashboard, is being developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in collaboration with Volkswagen.
AIDA communicates with the driver through an expressive robot screen and will even appear sympathetic if you're having a bad day. Cynthia Breazeal, director of MIT's Personal Robots Group, said: “We are developing AIDA to read the driver's mood from facial expression and other cues and respond in a proper way.”
AIDA works by analyzing the driver's mobility patterns, keeping track of common routes and destinations. The creators say the robot should be able to work out home and work locations within a week of driving. Soon afterwards, the system will direct the driver to their preferred supermarket, suggesting a route that avoids traffic-clogged roads. AIDA might recommend a petrol stop en route if the fuel tank is nearly empty. The robot will also incorporate real-time information about traffic jams, the weather report, commercial activity, tourist attractions, and residential areas.
“In developing AIDA we asked ourselves how we could design a system that would offer the same kind of guidance as an informed and friendly companion.”
“AIDA can also give you feedback on your driving, helping you achieve more energy efficiency and safer behavior,” Assaf Biderman from SENSEable City Lab added.
(1)What is AIDA in this passage?

(3)From the last paragraph we can know that _______.
A.it's possible to drive a car without any petrol
B.AIDA can help us to become better drivers
C.people can save a lot of energy by driving a car
D.It can help the driver find the way
(4)What would be the best title for the passage?
A.An Intelligent Device for Drivers
B.A New Model of Volkswagen
C.The Cooperation of Two Car Makers
D.Traffic Management in Big Cities
【答案】
(1)D
(2)C
(3)B
(4)A
【解析】本文介绍了一种新型汽车机器人AIDA可以与驾驶者进行互动从而增加驾驶的乐趣。
(1)细节理解。根据第一段第二句“The robot, which is called "Affective Intelligent Driving Agent (AIDA)" will be able to tell you the best route home based on traffic reports,remind you to pick up petrol and suggest places you may like to visit.”可知,AIDA是一个智能汽车机器人。故选D项正确。
(2)推理判断。根据第二段第一句“AIDA communicates with the driver through an expressive robot screen and will even appear sympathetic if you're having a bad day.”可知,AIDA可以通过机器人屏幕与司机交流,甚至可以表达同情,这些是AIDA给人印象最深刻的。故选C项正确。
(3)推理判断。根据最后一段提到的“AIDA can also give you response on your driving,helping you drive more efficiently and ensure safer driving behavior”可知,AIDA可以对开车做出反应,有助于开车更有效更安全,帮助人们成为更好的司机。故选B项正确。
(4)标题判断。纵观全文可知,文章主要讲述了一种新型机器人AIDA,这种智能机器人可以放置在汽车内,帮助司机更有效更安全的开车。因此推断A项“司机用的一种智能设备”为最佳标题。故选A项正确。
