In April 2025, an event took place in Beijing. It was a marathon(马拉松赛跑). But this marathon was not only for people. Robots ran too. This was the first time that robots and people had run in the same half - marathon.
The marathon was in E - Town. There were about 12,000 people and over 20 robots competing(参加比赛)in it. The robots had a human - like appearance and walked or ran on two legs. Wheels were not allowed. Humans and robots used separate lanes to avoid accidents.
There was a robot named Xiaomai. It was 1.74 metres tall. A Chinese company had made it. Videos showed Xiaomai running on roads near Taihu Lake. It ran as fast as people. Workers in the company had spent some time making Xiaomai better. They worked on its balance, how it stood, and how long it could run. The marathon was 21.0975 kilometres long. Another robot, Tiangong Ultra, could run at a speed of 10 km per hour. It was also training hard before the event.
There were some rules for robot competitors. They could change batteries in the race. Teams could change robots, but each change would bring a punishment. For example, for the first change, they would get a 10 - minute *penalty*. Cash prizes were given to the top 3 finishers. There were also special awards for robots.
This marathon showed China wanted to be good at making robots. It was getting ready for the 2025 World Robot Conference. Organizers wanted to show how good robot technology was. They also wanted people to talk about how robots and people could work together in the future.
1. The underlined word "penalty" in Paragraph 4 probably means "
A. a reward for good performance
B. a punishment for breaking rules
C. a chance to restart the race
D. a tool to help robots run better
2. We can infer from the passage that
A. robots with wheels were allowed to take part in the marathon
B. Xiaomai was not as fast as an average human runner
C. the marathon was a preparation for the 2025 World Robot Conference
D. robot teams could change their robots without any restrictions
3. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. To introduce a special half - marathon where humans and robots competed together.
B. To tell readers about two famous robots, Xiaomai and Tiangong Ultra.
C. To explain the rules for robot competitors in marathons.
D. To show the development of robot technology in the world.

2025年4月，北京发生了一件事。那是一场马拉松比赛。但这场马拉松比赛不只是人类参加，机器人也参与了跑步。这是机器人和人类首次在同一场半程马拉松比赛中竞技。
这场马拉松比赛在亦庄举行。大约有12000名人类选手和20多个机器人参赛。这些机器人有着类似人类的外形，靠两条腿行走或奔跑，不允许使用轮子。人类和机器人使用不同的跑道，以避免发生意外。
有一个名叫“小麦”的机器人，它身高1.74米，由一家中国公司制造。视频显示，“小麦”在太湖附近的道路上奔跑，它的速度和人类一样快。该公司的工作人员花了一些时间来改进“小麦”，他们致力于优化它的平衡能力、站立方式以及续航里程。这场马拉松比赛全长21.0975公里。另一个机器人“天宫超跑”的奔跑速度可达每小时10公里，它在比赛前也进行了刻苦的训练。
机器人参赛者有一些规则。它们可以在比赛中更换电池。参赛队伍可以更换机器人，但每次更换都会受到处罚。例如，第一次更换机器人，他们会被处以10分钟的处罚。比赛的前三名会获得现金奖励，机器人也有特别奖项。
这场马拉松比赛表明中国想要在机器人制造领域取得出色的成绩。它是为2025年世界机器人大会做准备。组织者想要展示机器人技术有多先进，他们也希望人们能探讨未来机器人和人类如何合作。
1. 第四段中划线单词“penalty”的意思可能是“______”。
A. 对优秀表现的奖励
B. 违反规则的处罚
C. 重新开始比赛的机会
D. 帮助机器人跑得更好的工具
2. 从文章中我们可以推断出________。
A. 带轮子的机器人被允许参加这场马拉松比赛
B. “小麦”不如普通人类跑步者快
C. 这场马拉松比赛是为2025年世界机器人大会做准备
D. 机器人参赛队伍可以毫无限制地更换他们的机器人
3. 这篇文章的主要内容是什么？
A. 介绍一场人类和机器人共同参赛的特殊半程马拉松比赛。
B. 告诉读者关于两个著名的机器人“小麦”和“天宫超跑”的情况。
C. 解释马拉松比赛中机器人参赛者的规则。
D. 展示世界机器人技术的发展。
