The head of one of the biggest movie companies in the United States predicted that no one would want to see actors talk. Of course, he was wrong! In 1977, the head of the largest computer company in the United States said, “No one will want to have a computer in his or her home.” He thought that computers would never be used by most people. predict v. 预言 future n. 将来；未来 prediction n. 预言 come true 实现；达到 come---came company n. 公司 ( 复数 companies ) think---thought see sb. do sth. 看到某人做某事 ( make, let, hear, watch )

Section 2 While You Read Do you think you will have your own robot? In some science fiction movies, people in the future have their own robots. These robots are just like humans. They help with the housework, and do the most unpleasant jobs. 小说 使人不愉快的 未来；将来 科幻电影 help sb. with sth. / help sb. (to) do sth. 帮助某人做某事

Some scientists believe that there will be such robots in the future. However, they agree it may take hundreds of years. Scientists are now trying to make robots look like people, and do the same things as us. Japanese companies have already made robots walk and dance. This kind of robot will also be fun to watch. 科学家 可是；然而好几百 早已；先前 try to do sth. 尽力去做某事 try doing sth. 尝试做某事 make robots look like … 使机器人看起来像 … 一样 make sb. / sth. do …

But robot scientist James White disagrees.He thinks that it will be difficult for a robot to do the same things as a person. For example, it’s easy for a child to wake up and know where they are. Mr White thinks that robots won’t be able to do this. But other scientists disagree. They think that robots will be able to talk to people in 25 to 50 years. it + be + 形容词 + ( for sb.) + to do sth. ( 某人 ) 做某事怎么样 It is not easy for me to get up early on Sunday morning. the same…as… 同 … 一样的 … I don’t like to wear the same clothes as you do every day.

Robot scientists are not just trying to make robots look like people. For example, there are already robots working in factories. These robots look more like huge arms. They do simple jobs over and over again. People would not like to do such jobs and would get bored. But robots will never get bored. factory----factories 工厂 simple 简单的；简易的 such 这样的；这种 over and over again 一遍又一遍地 get + 形容词 变得；觉得

In the future, there will be more robots everywhere, and humans will have less work to do. New robots will have many different shapes. Some will look like humans, and others might look like snakes. After an earthquake, a snake robot could help look for people under buildings. That may not seem possible now, but computers, space rockets and even electric toothbrushes seemed impossible a hundred years ago.
