My family has always had family dinners，as far as I can remember. Since I was a little boy，my mother has insisted（坚持）that we attend family dinners at least once a week. Every Sunday，my mother would prepare a lot of food and bring it to my grandma’s house. We would wait for more family members to come before eating together at the table，my grandma’s dinner table.

I used to feel that was a silly little tradition. But now I find it’s fantastic to get together as a family to talk about anything and everything after a long week of school and work. Every time I sit at the dinner table，my grandma’s dinner table，I look around and find so many people who truly love me. It’s a love that feels so good. For me，dinner is not just a meal，but a chance to reconnect with each other.

I finally realize the true meaning of this tradition. It’s not about the dinners or activities. It’s about family，a group of people who care about each other. All the memories（记忆）around my grandma’s dinner table will last forever.

Now，I’m always expecting Sunday to arrive.

阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Dennis Hong and his students design（设计）human-like robots. This includes a cooking robot called Project YORI. YORI is only the latest of Hong’s robot inventions. There’s DAVID，the world’s first and only car that can be driven by the blind. And SAFFiR，a two-legged robot that can do dangerous work that humans are often unable to do. Hong is finding plenty of work for his robots.

When he was asked about his biggest success，Hong chose the robot called DARwIn-OP. He thought it was one of the most widely used human-like robots for research and education. Hong’s team made DARwIn’s design free for anyone to use. They have seen many projects using the design. And they consider it a gift to the robotics community.

“Many people only want to see our successes and not the failures that came before those，but failure is simply a stepping stone in developing new technology. If you’re too afraid of failure，then you only get to walk on the safer side，and then there’s no innovation（创新），” said Hong. “I tell my students to try breaking the robot. If the robot doesn’t fall and doesn’t break，we don’t get to learn anything.”

（1）Which robot is the most recent invention by Dennis Hong’s team?

A．

$YORI$.

$DAVI$.

C．

$SAFFiR$.

D．

$DARwIn-OP$.

A．	Its technology is the latest.	B．	It is a popular robot for the blind.
C．	It is the first human-like robot.	D．	Its design is free for anyone to use.

（3）What does Dennis Hong encourage his students to do?
