(B)新素养 科技创新
You wake up in the morning. You go into the bathroom and the shower starts. The water is at the perfect temperature. After your shower, your favourite breakfast is already cooked. Actually, you live alone. Then how is all this possible?
Appliances(电器) that talk Technology will make appliances smart in the future. Your fridge, for example, will suggest what to cook based on the food you already have. With the help of RFID chips(射频识别芯片), which will record(记录) the date that you bought each kind of food and even “read” this information, your fridge will be able to tell you what to cook or to buy.
Houses that think In the future, you won’t have to repaint them. The walls can learn about your likes and dislikes through the technology called OLED(有机发光二极管). A computer network will connect these walls with everything else in your house, so that your house will then use that knowledge to control the environment for you.
Robots that feel Scientists today are starting to build friendlier, smarter robots—ones that people will feel more comfortable having around in the house. Friendly robots will be able to show feelings with their faces, just like humans. They will do the chores and even can take care of pets, children and the elderly.
You can’t wait to live a life like this. How soon will these come true? It is possible
that it will be a part of your life in the next 10 years, perhaps sooner. Much of the technology is already here.
