27、   Small drones（无人机）can help carry packages to your home. For two years, Google has been working hard in their secret research lab. They have made great progress. Their latest project is called Project Wing. Project Wing is Google’s invention of a drone delivery service. It is half plane and half helicopter（直升机）and is slightly bigger than a seagull. It can deliver packages to customers’ doors.

The first drone test was made on a farm in Warwick, Australia. It sent sweets and dog treats to a farmer. The drone flew to the farm, hovered（盘旋）, and released the package with a wire. Delivery is here!

The best thing about drone delivery services is that delivery times will be greatly cut down. You’ll be able to order online in the morning. And by noon, the delivery drone will deliver you package.

Throughout history, there have been a series of inventions that have helped people move things around, said Astro Teller, lead scientist of Google Wing, to CNN. Teller thinks Google drones will be the next big step in the series.

Interestingly, drones are not that young. The USA has been using armed（武装）drones since 2002. But drones may also get another use. Film companies have asked to use drones to shoot videos from the sky.

Google’s delivery drones won’t be able to fly to customers any time soon. However, Google has proved that drone delivery is possible. And with Amazon announcing their drone delivery service last year, the heat is on to make safe and suitable drones to fly the skies for customers.

【1】Paragraph 2 of the reading is mainly about ______.

A.what a drone is B.how a drone works
