【解答】(1)D.推理判斷題。根據第一段Somehospitalsareusingrobotsformedicalassistance.Robotnurses

performavarietyoftaskssuchasdeliveringmedicine,foodandlaboratorysamplestosickroomsandtaking

awaywaste.Patientsaren'ttreatedbyrobots，asthisisstilldonebymedicalstaff.Theideaistoemployrobots

任務，如將藥品、食品和實驗室樣品送到病房，并帶走廢物。病人不是由機器人治療的，因為這仍然是

由醫務人員完成的。這個想法是利用機器人在部門之間運輸物資。)可知機器人護士減輕了人類護士的

的人；B.Someonepopularwithpatients受病人歡迎的人；C.Someonealwaysreadytoofferhelp樂于提供

幫助的人；D.Someonegraduatingfrommedicalcollege畢業于醫學院的人。故選Co

care.Nursesatisfactionhasimproved(TUGs讓護士們有更多的時間專注于患者護理。護士滿意度有所提

高河知作者對機器人護士的態度是有熱情的。A.Suspicious懷疑的;B.Enthusiastic有熱情的；C.Indifferent

不以為然的；D.Cautious謹慎的。故選B。
