31. 改变世界的发明Part 2Describe an invention that has changed the world in a positive way 描述一个你认为有用的/改变世界的发明You should say:What the invention isHow you use this inventionWhether it is difficult to use it示范答案：The invention that pops into my mind is the airplane.It was invented by Wright Brothers in the 19th Century, and because of this invention, people are able to travel to any part of the world in dramatically less time.Before having this invention, it was pretty time-consuming and arduous for people to move from one country to another. But due to this invention, we can cross the oceans and mountains and reach any other country within a few hours.When I was in primary school, I vividly remember that I wrote an article about the Wright brothers. At that time, I did a lot of research about how they manufactured the first airplane. They went through a lot of trials and tribulations making the plane, and they had to convince the public of the safety.In my opinion, plane has positively changed the whole world. It provides significant social and economic benefits and allows people to have adventures or explore new countries, build business relationships, and visit friends and family. It"s no exaggeration to say that air transport has become the indispensable part of this globalized world.Plus, I guess taking a plane itself is a thrill. I enjoy taking off into the air, travelling above the clouds, and looking down on the landscapes below. In fact, no other mode of transport can offer that. And that"s why it"s a ground-breaking and game-changing invention.Part 31.What is the most helpful innovation at home?From my own perspective, it has to be the dishwasher because people cook dishes on a daily basis and washing the greasy cutlery is really cumbersome. The invention of dishwasher is really game-changing. It also applies to washing machine and sweeping robots. So it"s really hard to give the most helpful one.2.What household appliances make us lazy?All assortment, I guess, because it"s a double-edged sword. A household appliance can facilitate our life and make us lazy at the same time. For instance, the sweeping robot frees us from kneeling down on the floor, But once it malfunctions, it"s very difficult for us to convert to the old-fashioned mopping. We gradually become the lazy bones at the same pace of the tech development.3.What kinds of inventions can be used at school?I guess for the most part, internet-based inventions could be utilized at school. For example, teachers can write the formulas on their tablets, and it will be projected on the white board immediately. For the students, it"s clear and intuitive. For the teachers, they don"t have to inhale the chalk dust which would cause respiratory diseases. 4.Do you think AI will replace human teachers? Why?Well, I beg to differ because AI will never be competent teachers. Some may argue that AI can use the data analysis and machine learning to optimize the teaching approaches. And the big data behind the AI will answer every question. But I reckon teaching is all about being patient and interactive, a teacher needs to know how to motivate and encourage the children instead of having a cold and force-feeding approach.编辑：Moon▼IDE英创教育
