Can you imagine a plane that doesn’t need any fuel? Here it is. It’s a solar-powered plane.你能想象的出一架不用任何燃料的飞机吗?看,这就是,一架太阳能飞机。
It’s only a prototype right now but a man in Switzerland took it for a test flight and the take-off, they say was, pretty smooth.目前这还只是一架原型机,不过瑞士的一名飞行员架着它完成了一次试飞。
测试人员称,飞机起飞十分平稳。
That’s pretty cool! The propellers lifted off the ground at 28 miles per hour. And they say there are 12 solar cells built into its wings.太酷了!飞机飞离地面后,以每小时28英里的速度向高空爬升。
技术人员称,飞机的两翼内置有12块太阳能电池。
A night flight has planned before July and then a second plane will be built based on those results. They hope to fly that second plane around the world within two years.计划今年7月前再执行一次夜间试飞,之后,下一架太阳能飞机就基于这些研究成果来制造。
技术人员们期望,下一架飞机能够实现在两年内环绕地球飞行。
You know I look at something like this and I think, ooh the future of this will be that our planes could be solar-powered, and it’d better still pay 40 dollars to check a bag. That’s probably still what would happen.知道吗,当我看到它时,我就想,喔,将来的飞机就都可以用太阳能提供动力了,最好呢,就是机票还是40美元。
