ALL THAT IS HOT

對(duì)待珍貴的歷史寶藏，有的人不愿讓它們消失，身體力行傳承發(fā)揚(yáng)，有的人卻因一己私欲，破壞上千年的文物，兩種截然不同的態(tài)度值得我們深思；而對(duì)于望不到盡頭的未來世界，再瘋狂的暢想都不為過：人造肉，安家太空，飛天浴缸……這些曾經(jīng)只活在人們?cè)O(shè)想中的事物和場(chǎng)景即將成為現(xiàn)實(shí)，你準(zhǔn)備好接受它們變成你生活的一部分了嗎？認(rèn)真讀新聞，體會(huì)時(shí)光穿梭的樂趣吧！

1 Terra-Cotta Warrior’s Thumb Stolen from Museum在美展出兵馬俑大拇指被盜

A 2,000-year-old terra-cotta warrior’s[兵馬俑的]thumb[拇指]was stolen while being shown in an American museum.

According to the police, 24-year-old Michael Rohana broke off the thumb.

This happened on Dec. 21, 2017 . But museum staff didn’t notice the missing thumb until Jan. 8, 2018. Five days later the FBI[（美國(guó)）聯(lián)邦調(diào)查局（Federal Bureau of Investigation）]found Rohana.

The Shaanxi Cultural Heritage Promotion Center[陜西省文物交流中心], which provided 10 of the terracotta warriors, said it was the first time such a thing happened and also announced plans to ask for compensation[賠償].

2 How Close Are We to a Hamburger Grown in a Lab?實(shí)驗(yàn)室或能直接培育漢堡

試管畜產(chǎn)品，也叫“清潔肉類”，指從活體動(dòng)物體內(nèi)提取干細(xì)胞，并在實(shí)驗(yàn)室培養(yǎng)數(shù)周而成的肉類。

清潔肉類生產(chǎn)商JUST的總裁喬希·迪特里克說道：“使用‘清潔肉類’制成的雞塊、香腸和鵝肝醬將于2018年底前出現(xiàn)在美國(guó)和亞洲的餐桌上。”

In vitro[在試管中的]animal products, or “clean meats”, are made from the stem cells[干細(xì)胞]got from living animals. The cells are then grown in a lab over several weeks.

“Chicken nuggets[炸雞塊], sausage[香腸]and foie gras[鵝肝醬]made of clean meat could be served in restaurants in the US and Asia before the end of 2018,” says Josh Tetrick, CEO of clean meat maker JUST.

3 Play Chess in Cold Water冰水中對(duì)弈？戰(zhàn)斗民族名不虛傳！

There is an interesting style of playing chess. It is cold-water chess—you play chess while you sit in icy water.

In Soviet[蘇聯(lián)的]times, some winter swimmers would play chess in water. Two Russian swimmers read about this, and they got the idea for coldwater chess. It may look like a crazy thing to do,but the swimmers say that it has its benefits[好處].

One of the men said that playing in cold water helps him concentrate[集中注意力], and it lets him stay in the water for longer.

有一種十分有趣的下棋方式——冰水棋，顧名思義就是坐在冰水中下棋。

在蘇聯(lián)時(shí)期，一些冬泳愛好者會(huì)在水里下棋。兩位俄羅斯游泳愛好者讀到相關(guān)報(bào)道，突發(fā)奇想，發(fā)明了冰水棋。這看起來似乎很瘋狂，但游泳愛好者說這樣好處良多。

其中一人說在冰水中下棋更能讓他集中注意力，也讓他能在水里待得更久。

4 SpaceX Launches Falcon Heavy, the World’s Most Powerful Rocket SpaceX再放大招 助推最強(qiáng)運(yùn)載火箭成功發(fā)射

SpaceX is a company making rockets. It successfully test-launched[試發(fā)射]Falcon Heavy[獵鷹重型運(yùn)載火箭]on Feb. 6, 2018. Falcon Heavy is the world’s most powerful rocket that is twice as powerful as the second most powerful rocket.

The big rocket has three boosters[助推火箭]. The two smaller side boosters successfully landed in Florida while the central booster failed to land successfully.

The rocket carried up Elon Musk’s (the boss of SpaceX) red sports car and a dummy[假的]astronaut.

Millions of people watched the rocket launch live[現(xiàn)場(chǎng)直播地], and the lives tream[實(shí)況視頻流]became the biggest in YouTube’s history.

太空探索技術(shù)公司（SpaceX）是一家火箭制造公司。018年2月6日，該公司成功試射了“重型獵鷹”運(yùn)載火箭。該火箭是世界上現(xiàn)役推力最大的火箭，它的推力是推力第二大火箭的兩倍。

“重型獵鷹”有三個(gè)助推火箭。兩枚體積較小的側(cè)置助推器于佛羅里達(dá)州成功降落，而中央助推器并未成功降落。

該火箭運(yùn)載了伊隆·馬斯克（太空探索科技公司總裁）的紅色跑車（特斯拉）和一臺(tái)機(jī)器人宇航員。

幾百萬人觀看了火箭發(fā)射的直播，觀看人數(shù)達(dá)到油管網(wǎng)站歷史之最。

5 Man Flies to the Local Sandwich Shop in a Bathtub出行怕堵？試試“飛天浴缸“吧！

This is hard to believe when one man decided to fly to somewhere in a bathtub[浴缸].

The Real Life Guys are YouTubers who made an indoor flight test of their homemade bathtub drone[無人機(jī)]on Christmas 2017. Days later they took their latest invention outdoors. Philipp took the propeller-powered[螺旋槳推動(dòng)的]bathtub across fields and into the car park outside a sandwich shop.

Philipp’s brother Johannes said, “Before the drone took off, people didn’t believe it could actually fly. When it took off,they couldn’t believe their eyes. This is the world’s first manned[有人駕駛的]flying bathtub, so it is pretty amazing.”

這聽起來可能難以置信，但一名男子決定乘坐浴缸飛到想去的地方。

2017年圣誕節(jié)，名為“現(xiàn)實(shí)人”（The Real Life Guys）的油管播客對(duì)自制的飛行浴缸進(jìn)行了室內(nèi)飛行測(cè)試。幾天后，他們將這項(xiàng)新發(fā)明帶到室外試飛。浴缸以螺旋槳為動(dòng)力，菲利普乘著它穿過田地到達(dá)了一家三明治店外的停車場(chǎng)。

菲利普的兄弟約翰尼斯說：“在飛行浴缸起飛前，人們都不相信它能飛。它起飛后，大家都不敢相信自己的眼睛。這是世界上第一臺(tái)載人飛行浴缸，真是太棒了！”
