21、 has been inspired by nature to create the first robotic fly.The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new hightech systems.Designed to do what a fly does naturally，the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly.Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight
22、tasks.“Its extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just a bunch of individual components (零件)，” said Robert Wood，the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade.“The added difficulty with such a project is that actu

24、to perform well，and then has to be matched well to everything its connected to，” said Wood.The flight device was built into a set of power，computation，sensing and control systems.Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufacture
25、d.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insectscale.Yet，the power，sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications (应用)“You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions，you know，to study biology in

27、 engineers have when making the robotic fly?AThey dont have enough related knowledge.BThey are lack of readymade components.CThe system is too complex to work.DThey fail to control all the components.B细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The added difficulty with such a project is that actually none of those components ar
28、e off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own， he said.”可知，类似这样的项目的一个额外的困难就是，这些组成部件从来就没有现成的，我们不得不靠自己去开发，从中推断出，挑战就是没有现成的组成部件。9What does the success of the robotic fly prove?AScientists are able to make tiny flying machines.BHumans will create a new kind of species for nature.CThe flig

68、technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with，such as cancer and heart disease.Every year，millions of people are murdered by these two killers.And to date，doctors have not found an effective way to cure them.But if the gene technology is applied，not
