Unit 1 Section Ⅰ Reading，Listening and Thinking-（教师WORD）2021-2022学年高中英语【精讲精练】人教选择性必修第四册 新课标辅导

谁能告诉我们明天有几天，永远有多远，未来何时能到来？我们的胡思乱想数十年后会不会美梦(恶梦)成真？ What will life in the future be like？Will it be much better than it is now？And what will we be able to do 10，20 or 30 years later？Let's just close our eyes and think! Genetic Engineering(基因工程) Genetic engineering will help us create the perfect human.Babies will grow up to do slam dunks like Yao Ming or look like Cecilia Cheung(张柏芝)． Also，we will be able to mix plants and animals! But do you want your dog to be a tree? The Dead In the future，we will be able to bring the dead back to life.Then each family can meet and talk with its dead family members.It will be like living with ghosts(鬼)． On television people will see Albert Einstein，Marilyn Monroe(玛丽莲·梦露)，Confucius，Elvis Presley(埃尔维斯·普雷斯利)，and Shakespeare talking with each other! Long­living People(人人万岁) Over the next 20 to 50 years，it will become harder to tell the difference between a human and a machine.All body parts will be replaceable.We will then be able to make fake(假的) people. We will make a copy of ourselves，so we will appear to be alive long after we are dead.A few decades later，people will find ways to transfer their spirit to the new body. Nanobots(纳米机器人) We will be able to build nanobots to travel through our body.Also，nanobots will be used when we are sick. For example，when we have a stomachache，we will swallow a very small robot and it will travel through our stomach，taking a video of what's happening there.Then we can show the video to help the doctor diagnose our problem. 根据短文内容回答问题： Which of the predictions in the passage do you think will come true in the future? Why？(no more than 30 words) ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 答案　The prediction about nanobots.Big robots have been used in our life and workplace，so with the development of advanced technology，nanobots to be swallowed will appear.
