Man Makes a "Drone Call"

from News For Kids · host ICRT

Hi! Today, I… Oh, excuse me… "Hello. Sorry, I can't talk right now. I'm very busy. Bye." Sorry, I just had a phone call. Speaking of phone calls, let me tell you all about the world's first "drone call". 不好意思,我剛剛在講電話。說到電話,讓我告訴你世界上第一個用無人機打電話的故事。 Drones are small machines that fly. Some drones have cameras. A man called Casey lives in Oregon. It snows there in the winter. One day, he drove his car into the mountains. There was so much snow, his car couldn't move. Casey: Oh no! Casey 住在奧勒岡州,那裏冬天會下雪。有一天,他在山上開車的時候,被積雪困住了。 Casey tried to use his cellphone. He wanted to send a text message. But his cellphone wouldn't work! There was too much snow! Casey 想要用手機傳簡訊,但是發不出去。 Casey is a photographer. His job is taking pictures. This means he has a camera drone in his car. He tied his cellphone to the drone. Casey 是專業攝影師,他的車上有一台空拍機。他把手機綁在空拍機上。 His drone flew high into the sky! Casey's plan worked! His cellphone was sending texts again! 結果成功了!他的空拍機飛上天空,發出了簡訊。 People quickly came to help him. Casey was saved. 不久後就有人來幫忙了,Casey 就得救了! ________________________________ Vocabulary 手機簡訊被積雪擋住發不出去,把手機送上天就解決了這個問題。 1. message 訊息 Did you read my message? 你有看我的簡訊嗎? No, I don't think I got any messages from you. 沒有,我好像沒收到你的簡訊。 2. send 發送 But I sent it to you last night. 但是我昨晚發送的。 It should be in your cellphone.應該在你的手機裡。 My cellphone was out of power for a while. 我的手機有一段時間沒電。 3. tell 告訴 What did you want to tell me, anyway? 不管怎樣,你想跟我講什麼? Don't drive up the mountain. 不要開車上山。 There'll be snow on the road. 路上會有積雪。 4. snow 下雪 I'd love to see the snow! 我很想看到雪! Don't worry, I'll drive carefully. 別擔心,我會小心開車。 今天學到哪些單字? message 訊息 send 發送 tell 告訴 snow 下雪 ________________________________ Quiz 1. What is a drone?

This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
