Now, researchers have found a new way to brew coffee using high-intensity sound waves instead of heat. This new process operates at room temperature and could reduce the energy needed for brewing by seventy-five percent. For industrial companies that produce ready-to-drink coffee on a large scale, this change is very significant (显著的，重大的). They will not only save energy by not heating water, but also save power when freeze-drying the cold coffee. While coffee lovers who prefer traditional methods might be skeptical (怀疑的，不信的) about the taste, this technology could make mass-produced coffee much cheaper and more energy-efficient to manufacture.利用声波制作浓缩咖啡可降低75%的能耗 制作一杯浓缩咖啡通常需要烧开水，这会消耗大量能源。现在，研究人员发现了一种使用高强度声波代替加热来冲泡咖啡的新方法。这种新工艺在室温下运行，可以将冲泡所需的能量减少百分之七十五。对于大规模生产即饮咖啡的工业公司来说，这一变化非常重大。他们不仅可以通过不加热水来节省能源，还可以在冷冻干燥冷咖啡时节省电力。虽然偏爱传统方法的咖啡爱好者可能会对口感持怀疑态度，但这项技术可以使批量生产的咖啡的制造成本更低，且更具能源效率。（来源：Slashdot）---[01:08] Tesla Cybercab Launch Is Imminent (即将来临的，迫在眉睫的) After Sightings at Giga Texas Tesla has given a strong signal that the launch of its autonomous (自主的，自动驾驶的) Cybercab is imminent. Over the past few days, hundreds of these vehicles have been spotted at Gigafactory Texas. Recently, many of these Cybercabs were seen with a new logo on the side. This is similar to the logos placed on Model Ys when Tesla launched its ride-sharing platform (平台) last year. The vehicle has also received a Certificate of Conformity from the EPA, meaning it is now street legal. Tesla has self-certified the Cybercab for Level four autonomy under a new law in Texas. Because the car has only two seats and no steering wheel or pedals, it is highly likely that Tesla plans to run it without any human safety monitors.特斯拉 Cybercab 现身德州超级工厂，上市指日可待 特斯拉已经释放出强烈信号，表明其自动驾驶 Cybercab 的发布已指日可待。在过去几天里，德克萨斯超级工厂发现了数百辆这类车辆。最近，许多 Cybercab 的侧面都贴上了新的标识。这与去年特斯拉推出共享出行平台时贴在 Model Y 上的标识类似。该车辆还获得了美国环保署（EPA）的合格证，这意味着它现在可以合法上路。根据德克萨斯州的一项新法律，特斯拉已将 Cybercab 自证为 L4 级自动驾驶。由于该车只有两个座位，且没有方向盘或踏板，特斯拉极有可能计划在没有任何人类安全员的情况下运营它。（来源：Teslarati）---[01:54] Domesticated Duck Becomes Mexico's Unofficial World Cup Mascot The World Cup brings soccer fans from all over the world together. In Mexico, fans are cheering for a very unique supporter. After a victory in Mexico City, a domestic (驯养的，国内的) duck wearing a Mexican team jersey was seen walking in the streets. The video of the duck quickly became very popular online. The duck is named Merlin. It belongs to Karla Gomez, a street vendor (摊贩，商贩) who sells water and soda. She does not like leaving Merlin alone at home, so she brings him to work. The Mexican National Team even shared a picture of Merlin on their official social media account, thanking him for his support.宠物鸭 Merlin 成为墨西哥非官方世界杯吉祥物 世界杯将世界各地的足球迷聚集在一起。在墨西哥，球迷们正在为一位非常独特的支持者欢呼。在墨西哥城获得胜利后，人们看到一只穿着墨西哥队服的家鸭在街上行走。这只鸭子的视频迅速在网上传播开来。这只鸭子名叫 Merlin。它属于销售水和汽水的街头摊贩 Karla Gomez。她不喜欢把 Merlin 一个人留在家里，所以她带它去上班。墨西哥国家队甚至在官方社交媒体账号上分享了 Merlin 的照片，感谢他的支持。（来源：Fast Company Co.Design）---[02:37] 📚 今日单词：imminent- adj. 即将来临的，迫在眉睫的- /ˈɪmɪnənt/- 词源：Derived from Latin 'imminere', meaning 'to overhang' or 'impend'.---[02:40] 词组/例句- imminent departure 即将出发- Tesla has given a strong signal that the launch of its autonomous Cybercab is imminent. 特斯拉已经释放出强烈信号，表明其自动驾驶 Cybercab 的发布已指日可待。---[02:58] That's all for today's Daily Tech Briefing.
