1、Bionic boots are hightech boots that can help you reach running speeds comparable to professional athletes like Usain Bolt. The extremely light boots are just like springs inspired by the Achilles tendon (跟腱) of ostriches (鸵鸟) or Kangaroos, lending the wearer more force while running, with a spring

2、in their stride(大步；步幅)The boots are invented by Keahi Seymour, who has always been fascinated by the effortless run of ostriches (鸵鸟), the fastest running birds on the planet, with a top speed of 45mph. He has been working on this kind of shoes for several years, producing dozens of prototypes (模型)

3、in the process.“The bionic boots may be the transportation in the future，” he explained. “They are meant to make a man run faster, inspired by the fast land animals. The boots are made up of a carbon fiber composite exoskeleton (外骨骼), and also aircraftgrade aluminum. So the lightest materials were a

4、pplied to providing the most efficient form of transportation.”Seymour recently showed the capabilities (能力) of his latest version of bionic boots at the Maker Faire in New York. They can help anyone reach speeds of up to 25mph, which is the same speed as a slowly moving car. In comparison, Usain Bo

5、lt, the worlds fastest man, has clocked a top speed of 27.44mph.Section_Welcome_to_the_unit_&_Reading_Prereading,Not just watching a film .RealCine virtual reality for everyoneThis presentation will give you some information about RealCine: how it works, why it is better than a film, and how it can

6、be used in other ways. The RealCine experience will amaze you, and you will agree that this is an extraordinary technology that deserves to be developed further.The technology behind RealCine is virtual reality (VR). Unlike a film, where a passive audience watches and hears what is happening on a sc

7、reen， RealCine puts you into the action and connects with your senses of sight, hearing, smell and touch in an active way. Imagine that a VR usergoes sightseeing in the Himalayas. Not only will he or she feel every step of climbing Mount Qomolangma, but the user will also experience the cold, smells

10、受的虚拟现实电影本介绍将给你陈述关于RealCine的一些信息：它的工作原理，它比普通电影优越的原因所在，以及它的其他用途。RealCine的经历会使你惊讶，你将会认同：这是一项非凡的技术，值得进一步开发。支持RealCine的技术是虚拟现实(VR)。电影仅仅让观众被动地看和听屏幕上发生的事，而RealCine与电影不同，它让你参与到剧情活动中，以一种主动的方式与你的视觉、听觉、嗅觉和触觉联系起来。想象一下，一位VR使用者在喜马拉雅山“观光”。他或她不仅能感受到攀登珠穆朗玛峰的每一步的艰辛，还能体验到周围环境的寒冷、气味、景观和声音；到达顶峰时，他或她将会享受到一种愉悦感和成就感。RealCi

11、ne works by making the users feel that they are really in a new world a world that does not exist except in a computer program.To achieve this, special VR headsets are designed to allow the users to see in 3D and hear the sound all around them. The movements of the headset indicate the direction in

12、which the user wants to go. The user also wears special gloves so he or she can touch the people and objects that he or she sees. To add to the virtual world of RealCine, the headsets even have small openings that give out smells to match the environment. Both the headsets and the gloves are connect

14、作原理是让使用者觉得自己身处真实的新世界中一个只在电脑程序中存在的世界。为了达到这种效果，需要设计专门的VR耳机，这种耳机可以让使用者欣赏到三维世界，听到环绕在他们身边的声响。VR耳机的移动方向就表明使用者想移动的方向。使用者还要戴上专门的手套，这样，他或她就可以“触摸”看到的人和物体了。给RealCine虚拟世界锦上添花的是，耳机上甚至还有一些小孔，可以释放出与环境相匹配的气味。VR耳机和手套均与演播室里的RealCine电脑系统相连接。In scientific studies it has been shown that VR can be a good treatment for pe

15、ople who have social problems.In one case， a teenager who was afraid of talking and playing with his schoolmates was treated with VR. In the world created by RealCine， he became the captain of the Brazilian football team and scored the winning goal in a World Cup final. This encouraged him to become

16、 more confident around others.An argument has been put forward that some users will be disappointed by RealCine because VR is not real. However, with VR we are able to do things that could never be achieved in real life. For example, with the aid of RealCine, a seventyyearold grandfather recently to

17、ok a trip to Africa. In reality, he is disabled and can no longer walk, but he was able to see and touch a lion while still in the convenience of the VR studio.social/sl/adj.社交的，交际的；社会的in one case在一个案例中过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰world。Brazilian/brzIlIn/adj.巴西的 n巴西人winning/wInI/adj.制胜的，获胜的confident/knfIdnt/adj.自信

19、利的while still in the convenience of the VR studio是while引导的时间状语从句的省略形式，其完整形式是while he was still in the convenience of the VR studio。第45段译文科学研究表明，虚拟现实可以为有社交障碍的人提供一种好的治疗。在一个案例中，一位害怕与他的同学交流和玩耍的青少年接受了一次虚拟现实治疗。在RealCine创造的虚拟世界里，他扮演巴西足球队队长的角色，并且在一场世界杯决赛中踢进了决定胜负的一球。这鼓励了他在周围人面前变得更加自信。,有人提出不同意见，认为一些用户可能会对Real

20、Cine失望，因为虚拟现实毕竟不是真实的。然而，借助虚拟现实我们能够实现现实生活中根本不可能实现的事情。比如，借助于RealCine，一位70岁的老爷爷最近去非洲旅行了。在现实中，他因为残疾已经不能走路，但是借助VR工作室里设备的便利，他能够看见并触摸一头狮子。Besides this, VR can be used to practise skills in a secure environment that otherwise would be quite dangerous. For example, firefighters could use RealCine to train sa

21、fely, without the risk of getting injured in a burning building. It could be used in class as well. Teachers could bring history alive by placing students in an ancient town, or they could teach biology by allowing students to experience the world as a whale or a squirrel.Finally, RealCine provides

22、fantastic technology for urban planning. Engineers can enter the design of a neighbourhood into a computer, and then use VR to walk around the neighbourhood, see how it looks and make changes before construction is carried out. This kind of urban planning is in the long term cheaper and more practic

23、al, compared with the way most urban planning is done today. I recommend the government use this technology in the future planning of this city.secure/sIkj(r)/adj.安全的；有把握的；稳固的，坚固的vt.获得；使安全firefighter/faIfaIt(r)/n.消防队员injure/Ind(r)/vt.伤害，损害the injured 受伤的人；伤员bring . alive使鲜活/生动biology/baIldI/n.生物学wha

25、进行训练，而不必冒着在燃烧的大楼里受伤的危险。也可以将其用到课堂教学上：老师可以让学生置身于古代的城镇，从而让历史重现；也可以让学生模拟鲸或者松鼠来体验世界，用这种方式来进行生物课的教学。,最后，RealCine给城市规划提供了绝妙的技术。工程师可以把城区设计输入电脑，然后利用虚拟现实在城区“漫步”，看看效果如何，然后在实施建设之前作一下调整。长远来说，与现在大多数城市规划方式相比，这种城市规划方式更经济、更实用。我建议政府在城市未来规划中使用这项技术。PrereadingPlease match the words with their proper meanings.1reality Ar

43、m apes, its very clear just how different we actually look from our ancient ancestors. Even compared to the earliest Homo sapiens (智人), we look much, much different.So, it would be foolish of us to assume that the human species is all done evolving and that humans will look the way they do now forev

44、er!Artist Nickolay Lamm partnered with a Dr.Alan Kwan, a computational geneticist, to come up with an idea of what humans could look like 20,000, 60,000, and 100,000 years in the future.They put their heads together and came up with some (literally) eyepopping digital renderings.Dr.Kwan based his id

53、tural and normal, and everyone will experience it to some extent in their life. Sometimes life deals us a difficult hand, and events and trials arise that we have no control over. Other times it is our own actions themselves that cause our trials. Regardless of the nature of our trials, disappointme

54、nt is part of lifes journey and how we deal with it will largely determine the quality of our life. Here are some steps to help us to make our journey more enjoyable.Firstly, redefine our rules. It is assumed that everyone has an internal “rule” in their mind. If our internal rules are too perfect,

55、then they will discourage us greatly. For example, if we have a rule that says we need to be perfect, it is likely that we will spend a large amount of time feeling sad and disappointed. So when we feel disappointed, it is wise to review and redefine our rules. Want an example of an encouraging rule

56、? Try this one: I am happy and I am successful since I have made my greatest efforts.Secondly, remind ourselves now and then of the reasons why we are seeking the very goal. As a matter of fact, there are many cases where we have forgotten our original purposes along the way. So it is of great help

57、to remember the reasons why we are committed to a path in the first place when we feel down. By revisiting those reasons, we will likely renew our commitment and not get hung up on the disappointment of the moment.Thirdly, think about our larger vision and recommit to it. Disappointment is merely a

58、setback on what will eventually be a great and inspiring journey. So when we have those momentary setbacks, it is helpful to think about our larger vision and recommit to it. In our larger vision, therefore, a disappointment is a very valuable experience, which serves as a good educator and makes us

59、 more able to meet the challenges of the future.Finally, reset and have a new start. Resetting and starting anew prevents us from abandoning ourselves to selfpity and forces us to get up and move forward. Dont live in the past. Take what the past has taught us and keep moving. Wake up the very next

Nothing that happened in the past can stop us from creating the life that we have always desired or from accomplishing the goals that we are seeking.TitleLearning to deal with disappointmentIntroductionDisappointment exis
