question 5
in the article, the author wrote that hiroshi asami said:
\a robot just told us to get out of the way!\... \its a robot. its the one who should get out my way.\
the author probably included this statement to help the reader________.
a. understand how someone felt about dealing with a robot rather than a person
b. understand how robots use sensors to tell people to move out of the way
c. understand why someone might not want to be told to move out of the way
d. understand why robots are not being used in hospitals as well as factories

Explanation:

• Option A: The quote shows Hiroshi Asami's frustration with a robot telling him to move, highlighting the emotional response to interacting with a robot (vs. a person), so this fits.
• Option B: The quote doesn’t mention robot sensors, so eliminate.
• Option C: The focus is on the interaction with a robot, not just not wanting to move; the robot’s role is key, so C is too narrow.
• Option D: The quote has no relation to robots in hospitals vs. factories, so eliminate.

Answer:

A. Understand how someone felt about dealing with a robot rather than a person
