One complaint about recently developed “care” robots – robots designed to help care for elderly or sick patients in their home – is that they do not have the capacity for listening, expressing emotion, and tricking patients to think they can is unethical.
is that they do not have the capacity for listening, expressing emotion, and tricking patients to think they can is unethical
is that they do not have the capacity to listen, to express emotion, and to trick patients to think they can is unethical
is that they do not have the capacity for listening or expressing emotion, and tricking patients to think they can is unethical
is that they do not have the capacity to listen or express emotion, and tricking patients to think they can is unethical
is that they do not have the capacity to listen or express emotion, and tricking patients that they are doing this is unethical
It took me a while to figure this one out. I did it by elimination.
A. Incorrect. I feel "capacity to" is better suited here, gives a meaning that tricking is a part of complaint
B. Incorrect. Conveys that 'Complaint is that robot cannot trick', which is not right.
C. Incorrect. Same reason as A
D.
Correct. Seems the most logical choice.
E. Incorrect. Wordy and awkward. 'that they are doing' is unnecessary.
Any feedback is appreciated. Although I got the correct answer still want to make sure I got it through the right logic.
