Pregunta 4 37.5 / 37.5 pts

PART 3: READING
Read the following text.
Why haven’t scientists invented it yet?
Scientists have discovered and invented many things: computers, space travel, mobile
communication. But there are a lot more things they haven't invented or we don't use in our
everyday life. Are they all impossible or can we have them one day?

1 Invisible objects
Many scientists have tried to invent invisible objects, but they haven't done it. One scientist at
Tokyo University tested cameras on a coat. The cameras filmed objects behind the coat and
showed them on the front of the coat. Unfortunately, the coat wasn't very comfortable! The car
manufacturer Mercedes also tried these cameras with a car. They put the camera on one side
of the car and showed the images on the other side, but the wheels aren't invisible.

2 Flying car
With all the cars on the road and the problems of traffic, why haven't flying cars become
popular? One reason is because cars are very heavy so they are difficult to fly. There are other
problems as well. Cities have roads for cars, but they don't have runways. And we have so
many problems on our normal roads, do we really want the same problems in the sky?

3 Teleporting
Teleporting is moving objects and people from one place to another without transportation or
walking. Teleporting is a very fast way to travel, but scientists haven't discovered how to do it.
Solid objects are made of atoms and with teleporting you have to move each atom one by one.
A human being is made of trillions of atoms, so it's very difficult and scientists don't have the
answer at the moment.

4 Robot servants
Actually, scientists have invented robots, so why don't we all have them? Probably because the
technology is very expensive and the robots often break down. But many companies in Japan
have made prototype robots for houses. They wash clothes, switch on the TV, turn off the lights
and change the music. Many scientists think we can all have a robot servant in our home in
about ten years.
According to previous text: are the following sentences True (T) or False (F)?
1 The coat and the car used cameras to produce the effect of invisibility .
[ Seleccionar ]

2 The coat was very comfortable. [ Seleccionar ]

3 The car was 100% invisible. [ Seleccionar ]

4 Flying cars are very popular today. [ Seleccionar ]

5 The writer doesn't want lots of traffic in the sky. [ Seleccionar ]

6 Teleporting doesn't use transport. [ Seleccionar ]
