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.
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
3.
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.
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
4.
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. seem 是连系动词，意为“似乎；好像；看上去”，后面常接形容词作表语。如：
These girls seem very happy. 这些女孩子们似乎很高兴。
2. seem like表示“看上去好像”。如：
Those boats seem like many ducks. 那些船看上去好像很多鸭子。
3. seem还可构成“It seems / seemed that ...”句式，相当于“从句的主语 + seems / seemed + to do sth.”。如：
It seems that he falls in love with the beautiful girl. = He seems to fall in love with the beautiful girl. 他好像爱上了这个美丽的女孩。
[辨析] seem与look的区别：
两者后面都可接形容词、名词或介词短语。但seem指说话人内心的主观判断，而look则强调从所述事物外表上看得出的视觉印象。在下面两种情况下只能用seem，而不能用look。
1. seem 后面接动词不定式时。如：
My father seemed to know the news. 我父亲好像知道这个消息。
2. 在“It seems / seemed that ...”和“There seems /seemed + to be ...”句式中。如：
It seemed that they didn’t catch the train. 看来他们没赶上火车。

me a lot of help.
2. Fewer people will do such jobs in the future
because they are boring, but robots will never
get bored.
此句中的get bored 译为“ 感到厌烦，感到无
聊”。其同义词为：be bored 二者的区别在于：
get bored（强调动作） be bored （强调状态）
英语中有很多过去分词或形容词都可以和get,
be 连用。比如：tired，angry 等。例如：
You won't be bored when you are hungry.
当你饿的时候你就不会觉得无聊了。
If you do the same things month after month, you may get bored.
如果你每月都做同样的事情，你可能会感到厌烦。
3. Some robots are very human-like.
一些机器人十分像真人。
在human-like （形似真人的；真人一样的）
一词中，-like 为形容词后缀，用在名词之后，与其构成一个完整的形容词，表示“ 形似……的；像……一样的；类似于…..的”。
又如： a bird-like building （像鸟一样的建筑）
a cabbage-like vegetable（一种形似卷心菜的蔬菜），the ball-like thing on the top of the building（楼顶上那个像球一样的东西。）
5. Scientist James White thinks that robots will never be able to wake up.
Be able to “能够…..”
can vs be able to
相同点: 两者都表示能力
不同点:
can只有现在式和过去式。
be able to可用于现在时、过去时和将来时, 但它没有进行时。
3) 表示经过努力而成功的某一次动作, 只能用
be able to.
试做以下试题:
①He ____________ drive a car.
②He ____________climb over the mountain before.
can
was able to
6. But many scientists disagree with Mr. White.
但很多科学家不赞同怀特先生的观点。
这里的“disagree with ”译为 不同意；不一
致；不适合 。
固定搭配：
agree （同意）
agree with sb/sth
disagree （同意）
disagree with sb/sth
e.g. They disagreed with each other about the
time and place of the accident.
他们在对事故发生的时间和地点彼此有
分歧。

7.If buildings fall down with people inside,
these snake robots can help look for people
under the buildings.
如果建筑物倒塌，人还在里面，这些蛇形
机器人可以帮助在坍塌的建筑物里搜救伤者。
fall down 的意思如下：
1）掉下，落下，跌倒：
The old lady fell down in the street and broke her leg.
老妇跌倒在大街上，摔坏了腿。
2）拜倒，跪倒：
