The rbt, which remains wrk in prgress, waved t the audience and raised its knees.
Tesla is adpting its autnmus car technlgy t give Optimus abilities such as walking safely r wrking n the factry flr. "The rbt can actually d a lt mre than we just shwed yu," said Musk. "Tesla is designing Optimus rbts t be prduced at high rates, pushing the price perhaps lwer than $20,000," Musk added. "This means a future f abundance, a future where there is n pverty and where yu can have what yu want in terms f prducts and services. It really is a fundamental transfrmatin f civilizatin as we knw it."
Musk, wh nce warned f artificial intelligence being a threat t mankind, said that Tesla wants t make sure the transitin(过渡) t a sciety in which rbts d the wrk and peple gain the benefits is a safe ne. "We always want t be careful we dn’t g dwn the Terminatr path," he cautined, referring t a famus film abut a killer rbt and nting that Tesla is building in safeguards including a stp buttn that can’t be changed withut permissin.
Musk said Tesla will begin testing Optimus n the factry flr, letting the rbts d simple tasks like carrying parts, and that the general public shuld be able t purchase the rbts in three t five years. He als added, "Tesla, as a publicly traded cmpany, will be held accuntable by its sharehlders if they think it isn’t being scially respnsible. It’s very imprtant that I can’t just d what I want. Tesla’s structure is ideal fr that."
Eln Musk展示了人形机器人Optimus的原型,他的公司特斯拉希望有一天能大量生产这种机器人,以"改造文明",建立一个消除贫困的"富足的未来"。

[科技创新/2024湖北武汉外国语诊断]Cars pwered by batteries made frm seawater and planes fueled by ammnia(氨) will becme cmmn ver the next 10 years, Bill David, a prfessr f materials chemistry has predicted.
Mst batteries fr electric cars and smartphnes are pwered by lithium(锂), which has t be mined, but David thinks that they will be vertaken by batteries made frm sdium(钠), which can be btained frm seawater and salt. The future f air travel culd als be greener thanks t bifuels.
David said, "We are develping an ammnia-based plane. In principle, we can imprve n an Airbus A320 r a Being 787 and essentially replace jet fuel with ammnia."
David said that batteries culd, at first, cmbine sdium and lithium, as sdium is nt quite as pwerful as lithium but is much mre sufficient. "It’s nt quite perfect in terms f perfrmance, s we need bth," David said. "Sdium is n the way up and mst electric cars have had a cmbinatin f lithium and sdium batteries in them. My estimate is that by 2040 I wuld nt be surprised if there were ten times mre sdium batteries than lithium nes, maybe even 100 times."
The first generatin f mass-prduced sdium batteries has been used fr an electric car fr the first time. Sdium will nt be the final answer t ec-friendly air travel, hwever, which is why David’s team is lking int the use f ammnia. Sme cmpanies are lking int whether jet fuel can be replaced with hydrgen, but David sees ammnia mre sustainable. He said, "If yu d a sum, then at 500mph yu get the same amunt f pwer as jet fuel, but just 40 per cent f the range. Hwever, even thugh, a Being 787 culd still g frm Lndn t New Yrk."
Hwever, a reprt frm the Ryal Sciety n net-zer aviatin, which David c-wrte, says that replacing jet fuel with bifuels wuld require half f the agricultural land in the UK.
材料化学专家Bill David预测,未来10年由海水制成的钠电池驱动的汽车和以氨为燃料的飞机将变得普遍。由于生物燃料的使用,未来的航空旅行也会更加环保。
1. What is an advantage f sdium batteries?
A. Their perfrmance is easy t imprve.
B. Their raw material is easily accessible.
C. They are widely applied t varius vehicles.
D. They are mre pwerful than ther batteries.
解析 B 细节理解题。由第二段中的"David thinks that they will be vertaken by batteries made frm sdium(钠), which can be btained frm seawater and salt"可知,David认为锂电池将被钠制成的电池取代,钠可以从海水和盐中获得。由此可知,电池的原材料钠可以轻松获得,故选B。
2. Accrding t David, which is ideal fr future electric cars?
A. The lithium battery.
B. The sdium battery.
C. Hydrgen fuel.
D. Ammnia fuel.
解析 B 细节理解题。由第四段中的"My estimate is that by even 100 times"可知,到2040年,如果钠电池的数量是锂电池的10倍,甚至可能是100倍,David不会感到惊讶。由此可知,David认为未来电动汽车的理想选择是钠电池,故选B。
3. What is paragraph 5 mainly abut?
A. Hydrgen casts a light n the jet fuel market.
B. Electric car makers favr sdium batteries.
C. Ammnia features sustainability and practicability.
D. Cmpanies have mass-prduced recycled batteries.
解析 C 段落大意题。结合第五段内容,尤其是本段中的"David sees ammnia mre sustainable""If yu d a sum, then at Being 787 culd still g frm Lndn t New Yrk"可知,该段主要讲述氨的可持续性和实用性特点,故选C。
4. What’s David’s attitude t replacing jet fuel with bifuels?
A. Tlerant.B. Unclear.
C. Cautius.D. Dubtful.
解析 C 态度推断题。由最后一段的内容可知,David参与撰写的一份来自英国皇家学会关于净零排放航空的报告称,用生物燃料取代喷气燃料将需要英国一半的农业用地。由此可推知,David对于用生物燃料取代喷气燃料这一举措持慎重态度,故选C。

New technlgy will make us mre self-sufficient(自给自足的). Kitchens may have fish tanks which, as well as prviding fish t eat, als 6 fresh vegetables. The plants will 7 xygen fr the fish. These tanks will be pwered by husehld waste and create 8 , which can then be used t run the family car — 9 we might nt all have cars!
Water will be mre expensive and the hme f the future will prbably be designed t use much 10 water. Washing machines and dishwashers might use sund waves t shake 11 ff. We may even take shwers using sund waves. What water we d use will be recycled and used again rund the huse and private swimming pls will becme a thing f the 12 .
We will als 13 have mre rbts in ur huses, thugh they wn’t lk like the nes in films. There will prbably be small rbts 14 t clean the fridge r pen the curtains. 15 fridges will tell us when fd is abut t g ut f date and even suggest recipes, and we will be able t cmmunicate with ur hmes by mbile phne wherever we are.
