Scientists designed a fish-operated vehicle. Whenever the goldfish moved in one direction, so did the device. After training, the fish learned to drive. Some goldfish are better drivers than others.

科学家们设计了一种鱼操纵的交通工具。每当金鱼朝一个方向移动时，设备也会朝一个方向移动。经过训练，鱼学会了驾驶。有些金鱼是比其他金鱼更好的司机。

A MARTINEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martinez. Looking to learn more about animals' navigation skills, Israeli scientists designed goldfish tanks on platforms on wheels. They describe them as fish-operated vehicles. Whenever the goldfish moved in one direction, so did the device. After only a little training, the fish actually learned how to drive and apparently² showed some real proficiency³ for it. I guess you could say the humble⁴ goldfish is more so-fish-ticated (ph) than we originally thought. Yeah, it's still MORNING EDITION.

早上好我是马丁内斯。为了了解更多有关动物导航技能的信息，以色列科学家在带轮子的平台上设计了金鱼缸。他们将其描述为鱼操纵的车辆。每当金鱼朝一个方向移动时，设备也会朝一个方向移动。只经过一点点训练，这条鱼实际上学会了驾驶，而且显然表现出了一些真正的熟练程度。我想你可以说，谦逊的金鱼比我们最初想象的更像鱼。是的，还是早上版。
