Unit 1 Living with technology Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit& Reading-Pre readingAt some point we all have to face reality: we can't live off our parents forever. We have to get a job and become a productive member of society or earn a living as a writer. That time has come for French robot Nao, who has left Paris to get his first job at a bank in Japan.Nao is a smart bank teller. He is just 58cm tall and weighs about 5.4 kg. He speaks 19 languages and can read customers' emotions from their facial expressions thanks to the builtin camera in his head. He can walk on different surfaces, recognize faces and objects, express feelings and react to touch. It can even balance itself with its arms if it falls. He can greet visitors and offer them all of the services in a bank.“The robot is an important addition to the bank by performing tasks that our human staffcan't, such as 24hour banking and multilingual communication. He is cute and friendly and I believe our customers will like it,” said an official.The bank believes that Nao's superb linguistic skills and ability to work for 24 hours a day will be invaluable, especially during the 2020 Summer Olympic Games, when the country expects to welcome visitors from around the world.Nao enjoys a wide range of hobbies, including playing golf and dancing. For example, he can dance to the song GangnamStyle by moving its arms and legs.Section_ⅠWelcome to the unit & Reading —Prereading[原文呈现][读文清障]The evolution① of video and sounddevices②Early history of TVThe first public TV broadcasts were made in the USA in 1925.

Unit 1 Living with technologyTechnology Creates or Solves Problems?人类文明受技术的影响从未像今天这样强烈,卫星、克隆和互联网都是很好的例子。
当然,技术也带来了一些新的问题,关键是让技术通过自身发展克服它们。
It seems that human civilization has never been as fueled by technology as it is today.Satellites,Cloning and Internet are all examples of technology that has reshaped our life to an unprecedented degree.What matters most nowadays is that the power of technology must be ensured to overshadow the curses it brings about.It must be pointed out that technology can aggravate existing problems that are far from its original target.Atomic energy is just the case in point.Although its researches have a view of optimizing the current energy sources,atomic technology is repeatedly employed to manufacture deadly weapons for the purpose of deterring or even destroying other countries.Technology can also create new problems without alleviating the previous ones.There is no better example than the automobile.Wasn't it the inventor's promise that automobiles could bring speed and convenience to their owners,thus surpassing the other means of transportation? But every morning at rush hours,car owners enjoy neither speed nor convenience from car ownership.Meanwhile car exhaust remains an alarming effect on our environment.Therefore,technology is by no means a “cureall” solution.Yet there is no need to use the above reasons as excuses to stop the development of technology.The key is to control the problems and allow the technology to overcome them through selfadvancement.[阅读障碍词]1.unprecedented adj.前所未有的2.overshadow vt.遮挡3.aggravate vt.使严重4.optimize vt.充分利用5.deter vt.制止6.alleviate vt.缓解[诱思导读]1.What does atomic technology bring us according to the passage?It can let people make full use of the current energy sources but it also helps manufacture deadly weapons.2.What is your opinion of technology?Technology can not only bring development of human civilization but also cause problems.We should learn how to control and solve the problems.Section ⅠReading (Ⅰ)(Welcome to the unit & Reading)Ⅰ.匹配下列单词的词性及汉语意思( )1.evolution A.vt.制造;修筑,建造( )2.principle B.n.演变,发展;进化( )3.receiver C.n.原理,法则;道德原则,行为准则( )4.wind D.n.无线电接收机;听筒,受话器;接受者( )5.construct E.vt.& vi.上发条;缠绕;蜿蜒,曲折( )6.portable F.n.专利权;专利证书( )7.digital G.vt.播放,转播;接转,转发n.接力赛;中继设备( )8.storage H.adj.便携式的,轻便的( )9.patent I.adj.数字信息系统的,数码的,数字式的( )10.relay J.n.存储,储藏(空间)[答案] 1-5 BCDEA 6-10 HIJFGⅡ.选择下列句中词组的汉语意思( )2.Only then did we realize that our economy had benefited from the new technologies greatly.( )3.This horse is too weak to keep pace with the others.( )4.With the help of the charity,the children can have access to the Internet.( )5.We hope your suggestion will contribute tosolving the problem.( )6.It would be better to rely on ourselves than on others.[答案] 1-6 CADFBEThe evolution of video and sound devices(设备) Early history of TVThe first public TV broadcasts were made in the USA in ter,in 1928,the first longdistance TV broadcast was made between the UK and the USA.Regular public broadcasting followed shortly afterwards,first beginning on 11 May 1928 in New York and on 20 August 1929 in London①.Many different people contributed to the development of TV.Most early TV broadcasts were made using a system developed by John Logie Baird②in the UK.However,his system was very primitive and had many drawbacks(缺点).An American,Philo Farnsworth,made important breakthroughs in the development of TV in the late 1920s and early 1930s.Modern TVs use many of the principles first discovered by Farnsworth.John Logie Baird constructed the first colour TV in 1928,but it was not until 1938 that the first colour TV programme was broadcast③.It took more than two decades,though,until 1951,for regular colour TV broadcasts to begin in the USA.Regular colour TV broadcasts were delayed(使推迟) in the UK until 1967.However,within a short time nearly all TV broadcasts were made in colour,and within five years more colour TVs than blackandwhite(黑白的) TVs were being used.影像和声音设备的发展电视的早期历史无线电视传输节目于1925年在美国首次公开播出。

thinking that it is still daytime,preventing sleep and increasing the risk of insomnia、Sleep experts say humans natural body clock begins torest and relax from the day between9 and10 pm but the use of computers confuses it、A persons brain biologically becomes awake when the sun is out because bright light after dark causes the brain to stop producing the hormone (荷尔蒙)called melatonin that makes us

when the brain thinks it should be dark、Experts say a good book is a far better way of resting the brain and ensuring a good nights sleep because the bedside lamp light doesnt affect the brain as it does not look straight into a persons eyes、“Potentially, yes, if youre using an iPad or a laptop close to bedtime 、、、 that light can be stimulating (刺激)to the brain to make it more awake and delay your ability to sleep,” Phyllis Zee, a professor at Northwestern University and director of the schoolsCentre for Sleep & Circadian Biology, told CNN、“And I think more importantly, it could also be enough to affect your circadian (昼夜节律的)rhythm、 This is the clock in your brain that determines when you sleep and when you wake up、”Alon Avidan, associate director of the Sleep Disorders Center at the

Pair work:Choose one of the greatest inventions in human ’s history that you are most familiar with. Try to tell your partner about its development. Remember that you should organize your reporter in order of time.For referenceA Quick History of BicyclesThe Walking MachineIn 1817 Baron von Drais invented a walking machine that would help himget around the royal gardens faster: two same-size in-line wheels, thefront one steerable, mounted in a frame which you straddled. The device was propelled by pushing your feet against the ground, thus rolling yourself and the device forward in a sort of gliding walk. The machine became known as the Draisienne or hobby horse. It was made①②④ ⑤ ③① ② ③④ ⑤ ①② ③④ ⑤①② ③④ ⑤entirely of wood. This enjoyed a short lived popularity as a fad, notbeing practical for transportation in any other place than a wellmaintained pathway such as in a park or garden.The Velocipede or BoneshakerThe next appearance of a two-wheeled riding machine was in 1865, whenpedals were applied directly to the front wheel. This machine was known asthe velocipede ("fast foot"), but was popularly known as the bone shaker,since it was also made entirely of wood, then later with metal tires, andthe bination of these with the cobblestone roads of the day made for anextremely unfortable ride. They also became a fad, and indoor ridingacademies, similar to roller rinks, could be found in large cities.The High Wheel BicycleIn 1870 the first all metal machine appeared. (Previous to thismetallurgy was not advanced enough to provide metal which was strongenough to make small, light parts out of.) The pedals were stillattached directly to the front wheel with no freewheeling mechanism. Solid rubber tires and the long spokes of the large front wheel provided a much smoother ride than its predecessor. The front wheels became larger and larger as makers realized that the larger the wheel, the farther you could travel with one rotation of the pedals. You wouldpurchase a wheel as large as your leg length would allow. This machinewas the first one to be called a bicycle ("two wheel"). These bicyclesenjoyed a great popularity among young men of means (they cost an averageworker six month's pay), with the hey-day being the decade of the 1880s.The High Wheel TricycleWhile the men were risking their necks on the high wheels, ladies, confined to their long skirts and corsets, could take a spin around the park on an adult tricycle. These machines also afforded more dignity to gentlemen such as doctors and clergymen. Many mechanical innovations now associated with the automobile were originally invented for tricycles. Rack and pinion steering, the differential, and band brakes, to name a few!The High Wheel SafetyImprovements to the design began to be seen, many with the small wheel in the front to eliminate the tipping-forward problem. One model was promoted by itsmanufacturer by being ridden down the front steps of the capitol buildingin Washington, DC. These designs became known as high-wheel safetybicycles. Since the older high-wheel designs had been known simply asbicycles, they were now referred to as "ordinary bicycles" in parisonwith the new-fangled designs, and then simply as "ordinaries."The Hard-Tired SafetyThe further improvement of metallurgy sparked the next innovation, or rather return to previous design. With metal that was now strong enough to make a fine chain and sprocket small and light enough for a human being to power, the next design was a return to the original configuration of two same-size wheels, only now, instead of just one wheel circumference for every pedal turn, you could, through the gear ratios, have a speed the same as the huge high-wheel. The bicycles still had the hard rubber tires, and in the absence of the long,2. Group work:Undoubtedly, in the future, both TV and audio devices will still play a very important role in human’s life. But they’ll certainly be advanced than those of today. Let’s work in pairs and design future TVs or audio devices.3. Let’s e to Part F. Work in pairs and share your opinions with each other.4.
