Tell your partner what you know about robots. What do they look like and what can they do
I think there will be more robots in the future.
Really What do they look like
I think they look like humans. They can do anything men can do.
Sounds interesting.
2b
Read the article and match each paragraph
with the question it discusses.
Paragraph 1 Will robots think like humans in the future
Paragraph 2 What will robots be like in the future
Paragraph 3 What can robots do today
Paragraph 4 What are robots like in movies
Do You Think You Will Have Your Own Robot
When we watch movies about the future,
we sometimes see robots. They are usually
like human servants. They help with the
housework and do jobs like working in
dirty or dangerous places.
2. Today there are already robots working in factories.
Some can help to build cars, and they do simple jobs
over and over again. Fewer people will do such jobs
in the future because they are boring, but robots will
never get bored.
3.Scientists are now trying to make robots look like humans
and do the same things as we do. Some robots in Japan can
walk and dance. They are fun to watch. However, some
scientists believe that although we can make robots move
like people, it will be difficult to make them really think like
a human. For example, scientist James White thinks that
robots will never be able to wake up and
know where they are. But many scientists
disagree with Mr. White. They think that
robots will even be able to talk like
humans in 25 to 50 years.
4.Some scientists believe that there will be more robots in
the future. However, they agree it may take hundreds of
years. These new robots will have many different shapes.
Some will look like humans, and others might look like
animals. In India, for example, scientists made robots
that look like snakes. If buildings fall down with people
inside, these snake robots can help look for people under
the buildings. This was not possible 20
years ago, but computers and rockets
also seemed impossible 100 years ago.
We never know what will happen in
the future!
1.突然倒下，跌倒，倒塌
