Is there something strange high up in the world's mountains? If so, is it a big bear? Is it monkey? Or is it a kind of man?
No one knows. This mystery has puzzled the world for years.
In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints in the snow. They looked like the footprints of a very large man. But men don't walk shoes in the snow!
In 1906, another climber saw more than footprints. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran very .
Fifteen years later, newspaper had new stories about the "something". A mountain climber said he had seen the "" walk slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large man.
From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back of large footprints. "The pictures showed clearly the Snowman walked on two legs." So it was not a bear or a monkey. Could it be an ape man? The mystery grew! And the mystery keeps growing. Some day we may what it is that makes the large footprints.

A Cloud of Hope and Danger
In 2050, a small cloud floats through the air in a hospital operating room (手术室). In the room a patient, suffering from cancer, lies on a table. The cloud surrounds (包围) the patient, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} her body and filling her lungs (肺). The cloud is not smoke or steam. It is made of millions of microscopic robots {#blank#}2{#/blank#} nano-robots (纳米机器人). These tiny robots move from cell (细胞) to cell in the patients' body, destroying the cancer cells.
Fighting cancer with nano-robots is only an idea today, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} scientists say that it would be possible in the future. Using nano-robots for good purposes such as fighting disease or repairing the environment may be the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} to many of today's problems.
However, nano-robots could be a {#blank#}5{#/blank#} risk as well. Since nano-robots are so tiny, they will have to work in large teams of many thousands to 'many millions. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} this reason, nano robots will have to be programmed to build {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. Scientists will not have the ability to build millions of nano-robots one by one.
This ability to reproduce (复制) is making some scientists worried. What if something goes wrong in the programming? Quite a lot of crazy nan-orobots would be far {#blank#}8{#/blank#} than any disease. Some people think that if they get out of control, nan-orobots could destroy the Earth.
What should be done? Should we continue {#blank#}9{#/blank#} nan-orobots or should we search for other methods? This is one of the many difficult {#blank#}10{#/blank#} that we have to make in the future.
