▍原文 At the 2nd World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing, Chinese humanoid robot Tiangong Ultra shattered two running records: it clocked 9.39 seconds in the 100 metres, beating Usain Bolt's 9.58-second record, and won the 400 metres in 38.15 seconds, surpassing the human record of 43.03 seconds. The "shy" face-covering gesture of Tiangong Omini also caught attention. Engineers revealed that standard arm swings overheat shoulder motors and waste power. The robot autonomously adopted the face-covering pose to save upper-body energy and boost stamina. ▍語言點 1. humanoid robot 人形機器人 humanoid adj. 人形的 2. shatter records 打破紀錄 shatter v. 打破、粉碎 3. clock /klɒk/ v. 跑出、取得某個計時成績 4. beat /biːt/ v. 戰勝、打破 5. surpass /sərˈpæs/ v. 超越、勝過 6. catch attention 引起關注、吸引眼球 7. standard arm swings 標準的擺臂動作 swing n. 擺動 overheat v. 變得過熱、使過熱 8. shoulder motors 肩部電機 motor n. 發動機、馬達 9. autonomously /ɔːˈtɑːn...
