问题     In the past, one of the biggest disadvantages of machines has been their inability to work on a micro-scale. For example, doctors did not have devices allowing them to go inside the human body to【B1】______health problems or to perform【B2】______surgery. Repair crews did not have a way of【B3】______broken pipes located deep within a high-rise【B4】______ building. However, that’s about to change. Advances in computers and biophysics have started a microminiature (超微) 【B5】______that allows scientists to envision — and in some cases actually build — microscopic machines. These devices promise to【B6】______change the way we live and work.
    Micromachines already are making an impact. At Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, research scientists have designed a 4-inch silicon chip that holds 700 tiny【B7】______motors. At Lucas NovaSensor in Fremont, California, scientists have perfected the world’s first microscopic blood-pressure sensor. Threaded through a person’s blood【B8】______, the sensor can provide blood pressure readings at the valve of the heart itself.
    【B9】______. Auto manufacturers, for example, are trying to use tiny devices【B10】______
______.Some futurists envision nanotechnology (纳米技术) also being used to explore the deep sea in small submarines, or even to launch finger-sized rockets packed with microminiature instruments.
    There is an explosion of new ideas and applications. So,【B11】______
【B5】
