30、of frog skin cells. Xenobots, named after the frog species Xenopus laevis (非洲爪蝴) that the cells come from, were first described last year. Now the team behind the robots has improved their design and demonstrated new capabilities. To create the xenobots, Michael Levin at Tufts University in Massachu
31、setts and his colleagues obtained tissue from 24-hour-old frog embryos (胚胎) after very small physical operation. Where the previous version relied on the contraction (收缩) of heart muscle cells to move them forward by pushing off surfaces, these new xenobots swim around faster. They also live between

35、irelessly controlled cockroach, have involved dealing with live animals, raising ethical (伦理的) concerns. Xenobots differ from these because they are made entirely of living cells. “The approach here is maybe ethically the least problematic because everything starts with cells. They have no neurons (
36、神经元)，so its not an animal,” says Auke ljspeert at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Lausanne, who wasnt involved in the research. “Its really cells, so I find it maybe the cleanest way.”32. How were the new xenobots created?A. By making use of frog embryos.B. By relying on heart muscle ce
