Nanobots(纳米机器人)= nanometre + robot A nanobot is an extremely small robot. While they are still in the development stage, it is thought that nanobots can be used within the human body to deliver medicine to areas in the body that need them and to repair human tissues and cells(人体组织和细胞).

Prediction
Listen for predictions When listening for predictions, you should listen for the use of the future tense, in particular the future tense with will or will be doing. Words such as predict, prediction, and forecast, are also used quite often when making predictions.

Host: On today's episode of “Future Changes”, we talk with two experts from different fields, Dr Han and Vincent Black, to hear their predictions about the future. First, Dr Han, could you please tell our audience what you do?
Automation(自动化): A robot arm A robot arm is used to assemble(组装) parts in a factory, which promotes the automation of manufacturing(自动化生产).

C. Ke Jie versus AlphaGo
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
• We will be living in smart homes. • Robots will do almost everything. • Time travel will come true. •…
Before-listening
What do these pictures show? Match the words with the pictures.
Host: Wow! That would make each one of us superhuman! And Vincent, could you please tell us about your job?
听力原文
Vincent Black: Certainly. I'm an architect, I designbuildings. Host: And what is your prediction about the buildings of the future? Vincent Black: It's about the cities of the future, actually. I believe that cities floating on water are part of the world's future. Host: Oh, really? What might make us want to do that? Vincent Black: Yes. With global warming causing polar ice to melt, the sea level rising by many metres is a very realistic prospect. Instead of moving people away from the sea, I think that people could move into housing in cities that float.

Host: That's very interesting, but aren't you worried that such computers would be dangerous?
Dr Han: Not at all. This is because we'll be programming them to not think in ways that may harm humans. In fact, we'll also be creating machines to help people internally. For example, I think scientists will put some small intelligent machines, called nanobots, inside our bodies to increase our abilities.
Dr Han: Certainly. I'm a computer scientist. Host: And could you please tell us your prediction? Dr Han: Yes, well, I forecast that computers will be
cleverer than us in the future. I think that people will also be programming computers to think like humans.
