In some science fiction movies, people in the future have their own robots. These robots are just like humans. They help with the housework and do the most 1 jobs.
Some scientists believe that there will be such robots in the future. However, they agree it may take hundreds of years. Scientists are now trying to make robots look like people and do the 2 things as us. Japanese companies have already made robots walk and dance. This kind of robots will also be fun to watch.
But robot scientist James White disagrees. He thinks that it will be 3 for a robot to do the same things as a person. For example, it's easy for a child to 4 and know where he or she is. Mr White thinks that robots won't be able to do this. But other scientists disagree. They think that robots will be able to talk to people 5 25 to 50 years.
Robot scientists are not just trying to make robots look like people. For example, there are already robots 6 in factories. These robots look more like huge arms. They do simple jobs over and over again. People would not like to do such jobs and would get bored. But robots will 7 get bored.
In the future, there will be more robots everywhere, and humans will have 8 work to do. Now robots will have many different 9. Some will look like humans, and others might look like 10. After an earthquake, a snake robot could help look for people under buildings. That may not seem possible now, but computers, space rockets and even electric toothbrushes seemed impossible a hundred years ago. We never know what will happen in the future.
The future is unknown, and no one can predict it. What will you do in the future?

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery (瞇). Today is a gift, so that's why we call it the present. |
Have you ever put your old clothes into the donation (捐赠)box in your neighbourhood? If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming popular in Changchun.
"From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear. You know, we teenagers are growing fast. I think it's a good way to help others, " Lin Tao, a junior student says.
often pick out some of my clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then I'll put them into the donation box," Miss Li, a pretty young lady says.
"That seems like a good idea. Some clothes in the box are quite new. People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases," Mrs Wang, an old woman says. "Sometimes I also look through the box for some nice clothes. "
However, there are some problems along with the popularity of clothes donation. Recently, a CTV reporter from Focus on the City has made a survey. Here are the results:
♦The box is full of clothes in a short time. There is no more room tor people to give away clothes.
♦Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them.
*Some communities set the box in unsuitable places. So there are few clothes in it.
*Many clothes are too old and shabby (破烂的).
"What's worse," one of the staff in a community added, "we quite often see people throw rubbish into the box when they pass by. We've tried to stop them several times but failed. It has been the most serious problem since we set the box. "
In order to make the donation box work in an efficient way, our government is taking action. Clothes donation will be better-organized and it'll be more convenient for people in need to take the clothes away.
Jane Goodall first made friends with a chimp (黑猩猩)when she was one year old. On her first birthday her mother carried her to the zoo near her home and bought her a toy chimp. She loved her furry (毛绒)friend very much. At age 7, Jane Goodall read Dr Doolittle, a book about a doctor who could talk to animals. She wanted to be able to talk to her favourite animal, too. She expected to go to Africa some day so that she could learn more about chimps. When Jane grew up, she still dreamed of going to Africa. She got her wish when she was 26 years old. She went to Gombe National Park where many chimps lived in the forests.
Jane watched the chimps closely day after day. She saw that they were a lot like people. They could think and make plans. They used tools. They showed their fear, pain, or pleasure. Sometimes, they fought. Often, they hugged and kissed.
Scientists were surprised by what Jane saw. They knew that the relation between chimps and humans was the closest. However, they did not know they acted so much like us.
Jane still has the toy chimp she was given as a child. She has studied her furry friends for over 30 years. Now, she speaks for them to groups around the world. She hopes that what she has to say will make others do something to protect chimps from being hurt.
