北京冬奥会全智能机器人提供炒菜上菜服务
原标题: Robots -- yes, robots! -- will be serving dinner at the Beijing Olympics
The robots have taken over the Beijing Olympics. At least, in the area of food delivery they have.
智能机器人已接管了北京冬奥会。起码在食物配送领域,已全盘交由机器人负责。
From athletes to attendees to journalists, the only way to get fed within what's known as the "closed loop" of the Winter Olympics in 2022 is to submit to a completely remote delivery, sent to divided tables via an overhead conveyance.
在2022年冬奥会的“闭环”中,运动员、与会者以及媒体记者想要就餐,只能远程提交订单,然后食物通过高架运输工具分发到分隔的桌上。
句子分析: be to submit 是系动词be加不定式结构,表目的。注意这里sent to...这一部分是过去分词作状语。
With over 13,000 international athletes and journalists set to arrive in China for the Winter Games that kick off Feb. 4, the country has created a fenced-off area that will provide all the comforts of home, except freedom to wander around the country.
13000多名国际运动员和记者将抵达中国,参加2月4日开幕的冬奥会。中国已经设立好了隔离区,能让与会者感到宾至如归,不过无法外出自由游览。
句子分析: 前边 with 到 Feb. 4 这一部分是一个with + n + 过去分词 (set) 的复合结构,作句子的状语。that kick off Feb. 4 是定语从句。
They've created a fenced-off, policed loop to contain everyone … and, hopefully, contain the COVID-19 virus that created the need for such planning at the same time.
主办方建立起了一个闭环进行隔离管制,以便管控与会者,并希望能够控制新冠病毒的传播,因而此时让机器人送餐的计划应运而生。
Inside the loop, attendees may not have food delivered the traditional way.
处于闭环中的与会者恐难以常规方式获得饭菜。
句子分析: 注意这里 the traditional way 是一个状语,意为“以传统的方式”。
Food is prepared and served by robot chefs that assemble everything from noodles to sandwiches to hamburgers, then bring the completed meal to tables located beneath an overhead grid.
食物均由“机器大厨”准备和供应,他们会将面条、三明治、汉堡包等食物进行配餐,而后将成品配送至高空运输网下方与会者的餐桌上。
We rather like the pink theme that pervades the presentation.
整个送餐过程以粉红色为主题,我们相当喜欢。
Tables are then sectioned off by Plexiglas panels, to keep people able to see one another, but not spread the virus.
餐桌由有机玻璃面板隔开,人们看到彼此,而病毒则无法传播。
This is what attendees living inside the loop will have to get used to; they'll be funneled into one of 25 special sites from the moment they land at one of Beijing's airports until they depart.
处于闭环中的与会者必须去适应这种生活方式。他们一经到达北京,不管是在哪个机场着陆,都将被送到25个特殊地点中的一个,要在那儿一直待到离开北京。
句子分析: what attendees... 是表语从句。
