自动化
纳米/微型机器人
克隆技术
1.While most often when people think of a robot, they think of the android (human-like robot) in Picture 1, actually the vast majority of robots are like that in Picture 3, which is a robot arm used to assemble (组装) parts in a factory. In this activity, the robot arm in Picture 3 represents automation. Since an android is meant to be like a human in every way, the android in Picture 1 is being used to represent artificial intelligence (AI).


3.Some cultural notes
2.Picture 2 is an artist’s rendering (透视图) of nanobots in the human blood stream. A nanobot is a microscopic (微小的) robot. While they are still in the development stage, it is thought that in the future, nanobots can be used within the human body to deliver carefully targeted doses (剂量) of medicine to areas in the body that need them and to repair human tissues (组织)and cells.
3.The two monkeys in Picture 4 are Zhong Zhong and Hua Hua, two crab-eating macaques(食蟹猕猴) which were produced by the Chinese Academy of Sciences(中国科学院) in Shanghai in 2017 through cloning. They were the first successfully cloned primates (灵长目动物).

B: I'd love to.
A: First,could you please tell our audience what you do
B: Certainly.I'm a doctor. I perform transplant surgery every week.
A: That sounds like a very high-tech job. How do you think the surgery will be operated in the future Do you have any predictions about that
B: Yes, well, I believe that doctors in the future will have much better means to help people. I can imagine that nanobots will be put in patients’ body to detect the illness. And in the future, there will be adequate supply of organs for patients who need transplant.
A: Well, that would be really good news for all of us. Could you please explain how this will be possible
B: Well,it will be possible because of special 3D printers. In the future, doctors will be using them in hospitals regularly to create healthy copies of people's organs. Then they will replace the unhealthy organs with the healthy copies.
