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

https://poli.instructure.com/courses/11036/quizzes/45123 9/14
14/12/2019 Examen final - Semana 8: ESP/SEGUNDO BLOQUE-INGLES GENERAL III-[GRUPO2]

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 ]
