教材原文
Virtual① reality
SUSAN:Frank, you've been working at the forefront of② developments in virtual reality for many years. Can you tell us what virtual reality is and how it works? eq \o(□,\s\up8(1))
eq \x(1) 这是一个含有双宾语的句子,间接宾语是us,直接宾语是两个宾语从句,what virtual reality is和how it works。
FRANK:Of course. The basic definition③ of VR lies in the name itself, which means “reality that is not real”. When you wear a VR headset④ equipped with sensors⑤ and a screen,you are surrounded by threeD images, sounds and other sensory information, which creates a superrealistic effect called “presence”. eq \o(□,\s\up8(2)) Though you know the sensory information surrounding you is not real, part of your brain believes it is—and acts accordingly.
eq \x(2) 句中When you wear a VR headset equipped with sensors and a screen是时间状语从句;which creates a superrealistic effect called “presence”是非限制性定语从句。
SUSAN:Thanks, Frank. Can you give some examples of the practical⑥ applications VR has?
FRANK:I'd love to. There are a host of⑦ educational applications. Academic⑧ VR enables students to interact with others in a threeD environment. There are endless possibilities for the subject matter that can be created in a VR system. Imagine studying the solar system or the human body in a fully immersive⑨ environment. By delivering the content in a meaningful way, this new approach to learning manages to engage( students' interest and enhance learning efficiency. The applications can be expanded to make it easier to visualize data such as engineering projects and a variety of other design developments. eq \o(□,\s\up8(3)) It's pretty exciting!
eq \x(3) 句中it 是形式宾语,真正的宾语是不定式短语to visualize data such as engineering projects and a variety of other design developments。
SUSAN:This sounds like it has a lot of constructive applications. What about its uses for highly developed technical industries such as medicine?
FRANK: Surgeons are already using robotic technology with VR to perform complex surgery. What if I told you that doctors could create a virtual “twin⑪” in order to practise a delicate surgery before attempting it on the patient? This technology can be applied to train new surgeons; it also enables experts to test new techniques safely before trying them on human subjects. Treatments of anxiety and drug addiction are other valuable and costeffective applications of VR.
SUSAN:That is amazing! It sounds like VR will be a lifechanging technology as well as a lifesaving one. How will it affect the different aspects of our everyday lives, such as entertainment, shopping and travelling?
FRANK: The entertainment industry is one of the most enthusiastic advocates of VR. Current game systems come with headsets so that players can enter virtual environments and play against either real or virtual opponents. It won't be long before virtual museums and interactive threeD
exhibitions become common. eq \o(□,\s\up8(4)) When shopping online, you can look forward to being able to have your own virtual reality clone⑫ try on clothes and to see products with 360degree views. Also, people who want to go on holiday will have the opportunity to take a virtual tour of several destinations before deciding where to go. In both of these cases, this technology will help people make more informed choices.
eq \x(4) 句中It won't be long before ...意思是“过不了多久/很快……”,后接句子(谓语动词用一般现在时)。
SUSAN:I can't wait! However, as with any technology, there must be some barriers⑬ to the development of VR, I guess?
FRANK:It really boils down to⑭ three things—time, cost and technical limitations. We will need time to develop and finetune⑮ the hardware and software. The initial⑯ cost will discourage most people in the beginning but that should be fixed over time. The last issue is our own technical limitations. Just trying to figure out how to do what we want in terms of technology will prove challenging in some areas. eq \o(□,\s\up8(5))
eq \x(5) 句中Just trying to figure out how to do what we want in terms of technology是动名词短语作主语。
SUSAN: Considering there are so many challenges to deal with, are you still optimistic⑰ about the future of VR?
FRANK:Sure. When talking about VR, we should keep in mind its quick rate of evolution. The possibilities seem endless. For example, 5G technology, with its potential to serve up more stable mobile connectivity at faster speed, will make it possible for people to enjoy a more immersive VR experience wherever they are. Indeed we are only limited by our imagination. What excites me the most is that young people today are digital citizens who are comfortable with technology. They're well equipped to become part of a technological generation that will develop and use VR to do things we might think impossible today.
SUSAN:Thank you, Frank. It all sounds wonderful.
课文翻译
虚拟现实
苏珊:弗兰克,你在虚拟现实(VR)的前沿开发领域已经耕耘了很多年。你能告诉我们虚拟现实是什么,以及它的工作原理吗?
弗兰克:当然可以。我们从虚拟现实的名字就能看出它的基本定义,意思就是“非真实的现实”。当你戴上配有传感器和屏幕的VR头戴设备时,你将被三维影像、声音和其他感官信息环绕包围,这些会营造出一种名为“临场感”的超现实效果。尽管你知道身边的感官信息是虚拟的,你大脑中的某些区域还是会相信它是真的——并且会作出相应的反馈。
苏珊:谢谢,弗兰克。你能为我们举几个VR应用的实例吗?
弗兰克:当然乐意。VR在教育领域有大量应用。教学VR使学生能够在一个三维环境中与其他人互动。能在VR系统中创作的题材具有无限的可能性。你可以想象在一个完全沉浸式的环境中学习太阳系或者人体构造。这种新的学习手段以一种富有意义的方式呈现内容,能够吸引学生的兴趣并且提高学习效率。这些应用还能进一步扩展,使得工程项目和其他各类设计开发项目的数据更容易得到可视化的呈现。这真的很令人激动!
苏珊:听起来VR有着许多具有建设性的应用。那么,它在医药等高新技术产业的应用如何呢?
弗兰克:外科医生已经在借助VR和机器人技术完成复杂的外科手术。如果我告诉你,医生可以先造出一个虚拟的“孪生病人”练习精密的手术,然后再在病人身上进行实际操作呢?这项技术可以用来训练新晋外科医生,也可以帮助专家在对人体进行实验之前安全地测试新技术。焦虑和药物成瘾的治疗则是另外一些具有价值且成本低廉的VR应用。
苏珊:这太惊人了!听起来VR会是一种既能挽救生命又能改变生活的技术。对于娱乐、购物和旅行等日常生活的不同方面,它会带来怎样的影响呢?
弗兰克:娱乐产业是最热切追捧VR的行业之一。目前的游戏系统配有头戴设备,能够让玩家进入虚拟环境,与真实或虚拟的敌人竞赛。用不了多久,虚拟博物馆和交互式三维展览就会变得司空见惯。网上购物时,你可以期待拥有自己的虛拟现实克隆人替你试穿衣服、360°全方位查看商品。此外,想要出门度假的人们将有机会以虚拟的方式游览一些目的地,然后再决定去哪儿。在这两种场景下,VR技术都将帮助人们作出更明智的选择。
苏珊:我都等不及了!但是任何技术都有瓶颈,VR的发展想必也是如此吧?
弗兰克:其实说到底就三个方面——时间、费用和技术局限。我们需要时间来开发并调试硬件和软件。早期费用在一开始会吓退大多数人,但这个问题应该会慢慢解决。最后的问题在于我们自身的技术局限。在某些领域,光是试图弄清楚如何从技术角度实现我们的想法就将是挑战重重的。
苏珊:考虑到需要应对这么多挑战,你对VR的未来还抱有乐观心态吗?
弗兰克:当然。当我们谈论VR的时候,需要牢记它的进展之快。VR似乎有着无限可能。比方说,5G技术能够以更快的速度提供更稳定的移动网络连接,它将使人们在任何地方都能享受到更为沉浸式的VR体验。我们的确只是受限于我们的想象力罢了。最令我感到激动的是,如今的年轻人都是数字公民,对技术都已习以为常。他们具备良好的条件成为技术一代的一员。他们在未来将会发展并使用VR所做的事情,在今天的我们看来可能是难以想象的。
苏珊:谢谢你,弗兰克。这一切听起来都很美好。
