Explanation of the metaverse

Origin of the metaverse

Read the third and fourth paragraphs of the passage and answer the question.
3 Now, the fictional technology in the book is becoming a reality. More than that, it’s creating a whole new reality. The metaverse will feel real because the technology can simulate (模拟) our senses: vision (视觉), hearing, touch and even smell.
4 “We’re talking about creating another reality, another world, that’s as rich as the real world,” said Rev Lebaredian, vice president of simulation technology at NVIDIA, a US company.
Why will the metaverse feel real?
Because the technology can simulate our senses: vision, hearing, touch and even smell.

Read the fifth, sixth and seventh paragraphs of the passage and underline the topic sentence of paragraph 6 and paragraph 7.
5 So, what can you do inside of the metaverse?
6 Anything you want! Wearing a VR headset, you can meet other people wherever they are. You can work and play with them. Your location will no longer matter, said VOA News. In the metaverse, “people … would be connected at all times”. So, if you are bored and can’t find any friends to play basketball with, don’t worry. Just jump into the metaverse and join a game.  
7 The metaverse doesn’t just connect people. It creates a new space, full of places to explore. Are you tired of visiting the same beach every year? Forget Sanya. Meet your friends in the metaverse and go to a beach on the moon – or anywhere else you can imagine. Once you’re there, you can do more than just splash around (戏水) in the water. You can fly over the sand or dive (潜水) to the bottom of the sea. You can ride horses, or better yet, unicorns (独角兽) and dinosaurs (恐龙)!

Read the eighth and ninth paragraphs of the passage and answer the following question.
8 Some people may argue that these experiences are not real. Cathy Hackl, an expert in metaverse technology, said her son’s first concert was inside of a video game. “Just because it happened in [a video game], it didn’t make it less real for him,” she said.
9 Perhaps the metaverse will change our idea of reality itself.
What does Cathy Hackl want to express?
The experiences created by the mataverse are real.
