Today's key word is microchip
microchip m-i-c-r-o-c-h-i-p
微芯片

A microchip is a very small piece of silicon（硅） inside a computer. It has electronic circuits（电路） on it and can hold large quantities大量的 of information.

Here is an example:
A microchip is embedded in the center paper of the new generation of passports.
新一代护照的中心页嵌入了一枚微型芯片。

Talking about microchips, would you like to date someone who is controlled by a microchip? In another word a robot!

不久前，英国一个机构做了一个调查。It asked young people in the UK, if you looked into a crystal ball (水晶球) to predict（预测） your future, would you see yourself in a relationship with a robot?

话说，英国青少年作为英国最有威胁性的人群果然很open. The research has found that one in four young people in the UK would happily date a robot.4分之1 的英国骚年都非常乐意跟机器人约会！

但是，他们也说了约会是有条件的，我们不是随便的人！

The only condition is that they must look like a real-life human being.

你必须长得像真人啊！如果长得像电影《机器姬》里面的美女机器人，那完全没问题啊

Besides, the research also found that half of Brits英国人 who already use contactless bank cards would be happy to have microchips implanted植入 under their skin to open doors or log on at work.

在自己的皮肤里植入一个微芯片，从此以后再也不用担心忘带钱包和钥匙了，听起来也不错。

If we have microchips under our skin, we can just swipe our hand and pay for the food at the supermarket, and when we get home, the door will open automatically. It sounds really cool!

高科技确实让我们的日常生活发生了太多的改变，说不定将来，英语悠选会有虚拟服务，一打开我们的节目，我的3D真人大小形象立即出现在你眼前，tada!

哈哈，但是有一件事情，估计全人类都不会作出改变的。In this research , nearly 80% said they don’t want to swap their dinner for a pill.用一片药来替代美食，I definitely do not agree with it!

What do you think the future will be like?你想象中的未来是什么样子的呢？Would you like to date a robot?

Talk to you next time!
