A
Scientists are developing a new kind of machine to take the place of humans.These machines can do jobs in places that are too dangerous for humans.For example,they are being developed to work in nuclear power centers,deep under the oceans and in outer space.
John Marrit,a psychologist(心理学家) in Williamsburg Massachusetts,is helping develop the new machine.This is how it works.A machine is placed in an area far away from the person who operates it.The person wears special hard hat with television screens and sound equipment.The screens and sound equipment let the person see and hear exactly what the machine is seeing and hearing.Mr Marrit says this gives the person the feeling of being in the same place as the machine.The idea,he says,is being there without going there.The person uses an electronic control to make the machine move.The machine duplicates the person’s movements exactly.If the person raises his right arm,the machine raises the right arm,too.This means a person can do a dangerous job while staying in a safe place.For example,a person can direct the machine to destroy a bomb without going near the bomb himself. 1.The new kind of machine being introduced in the passage is .
