The option that is NOT an example of adaptive technology is:

A robot that gets the snacks for you and brings it to you in your chair so you don't have to take your eyes off of the big game... even though your team is in a "rebuilding season" (at least that's the excuse you tell yourself to sleep at night).

Adaptive technology is primarily designed to assist individuals with disabilities in performing tasks more easily. The other options listed (closed captioning, screen magnification software, and screen reader software) are all technologies specifically aimed at aiding those with hearing or visual impairments. The snack-fetching robot, while convenient, does not fit the same category of addressing specific accessibility needs.
