Antni Chella frm Italy is wrking with a Telenid rbt. T start with, the Telenid will be rained t imitate（模仿）the mvements and simple sunds made by a human singer, and then cnnect music with different human emtins.

7. D【解析】此处指作者18岁时期望自己28岁时是成熟的，但28岁时的自己感觉并不像8岁时期望的那样成熟。故选D。

三、语法填空
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。上周作者所在的公司将作者的一部分工作让一个机器人去做了，作者发现它的音色比自己好、速度比自己快等好多优点。但是当作者去仔细听机器人播报的时候，发现机器人播报时没有人所拥有的人情味。作者再也不担心机器人会偷走自己的工作了。
1. has【解析】考查时态及主谓一致。句意：它有一个非常好的嗓音，像天鹅绒一样顺滑。由上句中的des及下文所述语境可知，本段使用的时态是一般现在时。She为第三人称单数，故填has。
2. secnd【解析】考查序数词。句意：它的第二个优势是它几乎是免费的。上一句讲的是它的第一个优点：嗓音好。这句话是讲它的第二个优点，所以用序数词 secnd。
3. int【解析】考查介词。句意：它是亚马逊一项新服务的一部分，这项服务可以将文本转换成语音，儿乎不需要任何费用。固定短语urn.int..将……转换成……。
4. impressive【解析】考查形容词。句意：更令人印象深刻的是它的速度……。主句是一个倒装句，将形容词比较级放在了句首。“令人印象深刻的”修饰的是 her speed，作is的表语，所以用形容词 impressive。
5. written【解析】考查形容词。句意：……在它收到我的书面文本后不到两秒钟，这意味着当我刚开始读“昨天金……”的时候，它已经结束了。设空处修饰名词text，作定语，表示“书面的”，故填形容词 written。
6. better【解析】考查形容词比较级。句意：然而，当我克服了悲伤，去听它的工作的时候，我感觉好多了。这句话将“我”听完了它的工作之后的感觉与之前的感觉相比，所以用形容词比较级better
7. a【解析】考查不定冠词。句中 nn-English speaker是可数名词的单数形式，其前没有形容词性物主代词之类的限定词修饰，并且此处表泛指，所以应填不定冠词。nn-English是以辅音音素开头的，故填a。
8. delivery【解析】考查名词。主句缺少主语，空格前有形容词性物主代词修饰，所以空格处应填 deliver的名词形式 delivery。
9. t pause【解析】考查不定式。句意：埃米读的时候从不带着理解从不知道什么时候停顿……。这里使用“疑问词+不定式”作宾语。
10. that【解析】考查强调句型。句意：是心与心的交流让我们变得特别、美丽与不可替代。这是一个强调句型，其结构为“It is/was+被强调部分+ that/wh+其他部分”，此处强调的是the heart-t-heart cmmunicatin，指物，故填 that。
