单选题
单选题 For how long has the Robot Trade Fair been held in Japan?
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
Japan has long been a leader in the development of robot technology. Robots have been used to build Japanese cars for over thirty years. Every year Japanese manufacturers of robots show off their wares at a trade fair in Tokyo. This year, at the twentieth annual show, there were a few surprises. Surgeons may soon be using a robotic device to aid in micro-surgery. The robot surgeon can do incredibly precise work, stitching up the thinnest veins. Dentists may soon get help from robots too; a company displayed a robotic device that may some day be used to clean teeth and even fill cavities. One company unveiled a robotic night watchman that can patrol sensitive areas and detect any intruders—and never falls asleep! And children who attended the fair were delighted by a lifelike robotic cat that chases a robotic mouse.

[考点] manufacturer生产商,wares商品
[解析] 问题是“机器人贸易展销会在日本举行了多久”,因此应该去听关键词“机器人贸易展销会”,由文章第三句和第四句“每年日本的机器人生产商都会在东京的展会展出他们的产品,今年,在第20年的展会上,有一些惊喜给大家”可知,今年是第20年,因此答案选C。
