A 'virtual wife' for lonely men 日本科技公司为孤独的男性研发“虚拟妻子”
文字稿 This is one of the most volcanically active places on Earth. But now scientists plan to harness the power of volcanoes, by drilling into the heart of one. This site has been operating continuously for 24 hours a day using this huge piece of kit. In Iceland, towns are already using energy generated from volcanoes, but this new approach could create up to ten times more electricity. And if it works, this technology and the energy it harnesses could be used around the world.
冰岛是地球上火山活动最活跃的地带之一。而现在,科学家们计划通过钻探到一座火山的深处来控制并利用其产生的能量。凭借这套大型设备,该工地一直在以每天二十四小时的强度持续地运作。火山所产生的能量已经在为冰岛部分城镇的家庭供电,但这个新方法产生的最高电力能比传统方式多十倍。如果该方法奏效,则这项技术及其利用的能源可能会被推广到世界各地。
A Japanese firm has come up with a holographic character that is also a smart home device. With ease, she can give you weather updates, and turn on the lights and air conditioning. But the device creators say that Hikari can also be your companion, for when you just need a pal.
