BPersuasive. CSubjective. DObjective.答案D解析作者态度题。综观全文可知作者只是客观地介绍了机器人在太空探索中的使用，并未带有否定的、说服性的或者是主观的看法，故选D项。BHeelys are shoes that can roll.They are sports shoes with a wheel in the heel.The wheels can be easily removed from the shoes.So a person wearing them can either walk or ride！Heelys are sold in at least fifty countries around the world.They cost between fifty and one hundred dollars.They were first sold in the United States in 2000.Roger Adams invented Heelys because he wanted to be able to skate without changing his shoes.He invented a shoe that could roll if the wearer moved the weight of his body towards the back.Doctors，however，say wearing Heelys can be dangerous.One doctor told a newspaper in the state of Iowa that the shoes would be safer if the wheels were in the front of the shoes instead of the back.He said a persons natural balance is to the front of the foot，not the back.One medical study last month warned of the possible dangers of wearing Heelys.Doctors in Singapore reported that thirtyseven children were treated for injuries last month.Most of the injuries reported involved broken hands，arms and ankles and cracked heads.The children were not wearing any kind of protective equipment when they fell.The Heelys company recently released the result of a study it had requested.The study found that rolling on Heelys is safer than roller skating，or skateboarding.Still，the company and many doctors suggest that children wear protective equipment on their heads，arms and legs.But children say they do not like to do this.Many say they expect to fall while learning to use Heelys and they just get up and try again. 5According to the passage，people wearing Heelys _.Acan save much time every dayBusually have difficulty in walkingCmay roll faster without the wheelDcan walk or roll forward as they like答案D解析细节理解题。根据第一段第四句“So a person wearing them can either walk or ride！”可知，穿暴走鞋可以行走也可以滑动。 6According to the doctors，_.Apeople should not wear Heelys for skatingBwheels should be kept at the back of the shoesCpeople
