As we all knw, insects can be remarkably agile (灵活的) in flight. This is really hard t build int flying rbts, but MIT Assistant Prfessr Kevin Yufeng Chen has develped an insect—sized drne (无人机) that appraches insects’ agility.
Typically, drnes require wide pen spaces. “If we lk at mst drnes tday, they’re usually quite big,” says Chen. “Mst f their applicatins invlve flying utdrs. The questin is: Can yu
create an insect-sized drne that can mve arund in very crwded and cmplex spaces?”
Accrding t Chen, he vercame many prblems when building the drne. The insect-sized drne requires a fundamentally different cnstructin frm a larger ne. The large drne is usually pwered by a mtr, but the mtr lses efficiency as yu shrink it. S, Chen says, “Fr an insect-sized drne, yu need t lk fr alternatives.” The principal alternative until nw has been emplying a small, rigid actuatr (执行器) built frm new materials. Chen designed a mre agile tiny drne using sft actuatrs instead f hard nes.
Each actuatr can beat nearly 500 times per secnd and weighs just 0.6 gram, apprximately the mass f a large bee. It gives the drne insect-like agility. “Yu can hit it when it’s flying, and it can recver,” says Chen. “It can als turn ver in the air.” The drne lks a bit like a tiny cassette tape with wings, thugh Chen is als wrking n a new ne shaped like a dragnfly.
Chen says his drne can be useful in industry and agriculture. It can perfrm machinery inspectins t ensure safety and functin. Its ptential applicatins include cmpleting search-and-rescue missins fllwing a disaster. “All thse things can be very difficult fr existing large-scale drnes,” Chen explains. Smetimes, bigger isn’t better.
What is the disadvantage f the cnventinal drnes?
A. They cst t much.B. They can nly fly indrs.
C. Their cnstructin is unstable.D. They are t large t enter narrw spaces.
What is the functin f the actuatr designed by Chen?
A. T pwer the insect-sized drne.B. T make the new drne less flexible.
C. T make the new drne easily turn ver.D. T shape the new drne int a dragnfly.
What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A. Safety standards f the new drne.B. Pssible applicatins f the new drne.
C. Ptential risks f the new drne.D. Design cncept f the new drne.
Which is the best title fr the text?
An Insect-like Small Drne
The Future f Insect-sized Drnes
Hw Drnes Will Change the Industry
What Prblems Drne Develpment Are Facing

Thinking f these, I culdn't help heaving a sigh and went straight back t wrk. Hwever, I hadn't typed mre than tw sentences when Brigitte began barking furiusly and running back and frth t the sliding glass dr verlking ur pl.
I raced t see what was happening and nticed that the sliding dr was slightly pen. Suddenly, I realized Frrest was nwhere t be seen. In panic, I pened the dr and ran utside.
