问题     So why is Google suddenly so interested in robots? That’s the question everyone’s asking after it emerged this month that the internet giant has quietly collected a portfolio of eight advanced-robotics firms. Google is【C1】________the venture as partly a long term " moonshot" project—the name【C2】________to its more bizarre or【C3】________ideas, such as its self-driving car or broadband via high-altitude balloons. But it also says it aims to【C4】________a batch of robotics products in the【C5】________term and it has a "10-year vision" of where the company is【C6】________Based in the US and Japan, the new acquisitions make【C7】________products, ranging from walking humanoids (human-like Robots), to assembly robots, machine-vision systems and robotic special-effects movie cameras.
    The【C8】________of technologies that Google has acquired doesn’t point to【C9】________one type of robot being developed, says Chris Melhuish. "These technologies could【C10】________anything from a smart bed to a wheeled home-assistant robot for elderly people. "
    But Will Jackson thinks Google will use its【C11】________in search engines to allow people to find【C12】________faster in shopping malls and airports. "You would never go over and talk to a touch screen,【C13】________if a mechanical person talks to you and makes eye【C14】________and smiles it’s very hard indeed not to talk【C15】________Google knows all about our【C16】________and market preferences already. A robot would be a good【C17】________for that information. "
    Google’s moves are【C18】________of how robotics is changing, says Scott Eckert. "The robotics industry is in the early stages of a【C19】________from a primarily industrial market to a dynamic technology sector," he says. "This is an exciting industry with a【C20】________future. "
【C9】

选项 A、either
B、some
C、any
D、every

答案C

解析 空格所在句为否定句,下一句提到“这些技术应用到一个智能床或是为老年人设计的家庭轮式机器人”,故推测该句指所收购的技术并不能用于生产任何正在开发的机器人,而any与空格后的one搭配,表示“任何(一个)”符合语境,故答案选C项。A项either表示“两个事物中的任一个”,上文列举了谷歌所收购的公司生产不止两种机器人产品,故排除,B项的some通常用于肯定句中,D项every后接数词表示“每……个”,将其代入文中句意不通,故均排除。
