[00:01.17]The third part of the film is about a trip
[00:03.41]to another planet.
[00:04.87]The spaceship Discovery is controlled
[00:07.01]by the intelligent computer HAL 9000,
[00:10.41]the only one on the ship
[00:11.68]who knows the real plan for the trip.
[00:14.01]At first HAL and the two men,
[00:16.58]Dave and Frank, get on fine.
[00:18.30]Then trouble starts.
[00:19.95]Anyway, I'm not going to give away the ending.
[00:22.39]You'll have to see it for yourself!
[00:24.51]I really recommend going to see the film
[00:26.43]because it makes you think.
[00:28.17]What I'm trying to say
[00:29.68]is that after watching Space Odyssey
[00:32.23]you start thinking about all sorts of things-
[00:35.11]who we are and what we are doing here.
[00:37.81]It also makes you think about the future-
[00:39.70]you know.how intelligent computers and machines
[00:43.23]might take over our lives.
[00:45.80]Exercise 9 Listen to the story of HAL
[00:49.40]and answer the questions.
[00:51.50]Five men are on a spaceship.
[00:53.60]Three of them are in hibernation
[00:55.45]and the other two,
[00:56.46]Dave and Frank,are looking after the ship.
[00:59.08]Or rather the new super-computer,
[01:01.77]HAL 9000,is looking after it.
