Paragraph 2 What will robots be like in the future? Paragraph 3 What can robots do today?Paragraph 4 What are robots like in movies?Do You Think You Will Have Your Own Robot?1.When we watch movies about the future, we sometimes see robots. Theyare usually like human servants. They help with the housework and do jobs like working in dirty or dangerous places.2.Today there are already robots working in factories. Some can helpto build cars, and they do simple jobs over and over again. Fewer people will do such jobs in the future because they are boring, but robots will never get bored.3.Scientists are now trying to make robots look like humans and dothe same things as we do. Some robots in Japan can walk and dance.They are fun to watch. However, some scientists believe that although we can make robots move like people, it will be difficult to make them really think like a human. For example, scientist James White thinks that robots will never be able to wake up and know where they are. But many scientists disagree with Mr. White. They think that robots will even be able to talk like humans in 25 to 50 years.4.Some scientists believe that there will be more robots in the future.However, they agree it may take hundreds of years. These new robots will have many different shapes. Some will looks like humans, and others might look like animals. In India, for example, scientists made robots that look like snakes. If buildings fall down with people inside, these snake robots can help look for people under thebuildings. This was not possible 20 years ago, but computers and rockets also seemed impossible 100 years ago.

Unit 7 Will people have robots?词汇精讲1. duringduring是介词，意为“在……期间”。

例如：I went to see my uncle during my stay in Beijing. 我在北京逗留期间去北京看我叔叔了。

【拓展】during；in与for(1) during指“在……时间内，在……的期间”。

谓语动词常为表示持续性的动作或状态的动词，时间段前常有限定词（the; 物主代词等），表特指。

例如：He asked many questions during the three meetings.在这三次会议期间，他问了许多问题。

(2) in意为“在……时间内”，一般情况下可以和during互换，用in时往往强调某一动作发生在某一时间段中的某一时间点；during既可表示“在整个时间段期间”，也可表示“某时间段内的某个时间点”。

例如：Mike put his hand up three times during/in the class.在这节课内，Mike举了三次手。

(3) for意为“（时间）长达……”，强调时间由始至终，动作也贯穿这段时间的始终，可以和完成时连用。

强调持续时间的长短，回答how long的提问；而during则是指动作所发生的时间，回答when的提问。

例如：He stayed in Beijing for two years. 他在北京住了两年。

He swims every day during the summer. 夏天他每天去游泳。

2. in 100 yearsin 100 years意为“100年之后”，是由“介词in + 一段时间”构成，表示“在……之后”，多用于一般将来时。

对此短语提问时常用how soon。

例如：I will finish the task in two hours.我将在两个小时后完成这项任务。
