Four Questions for a ... Robot Maker Glad to choose the robot maker as my job. I'm on the road with those creative children. —Kelsey Derringer ·Do you always want to work with robots? No—I was an English teacher! I started working in an after-school club for girls and learnt to make robots along with the children. And I became interested in it. ·What made you keep going with robots? The girls in my club were excited about the robot. They liked it even better than lovely toys. I liked seeing the girls make new robots. I loved seeing their smiling faces. That made me decide to be with them. ·What do you like about your job? Everything. I make robots with my team and we check our robots again and again to see how they work. We also give robot shows online and share our ideas together with the robot fans. Putting a show needs lots of work, but we have fun and learn to believe in ourselves. ·Do you believe that your robots can change the world? In fact, I think robots can change the children's world. The children work with their friends, doing something they like and knowing they are great enough to change the world. |
What do you do when you see someone you know? Give a smile? Or say hello? Do you hug the other person? Here are some ideas for travellers in a foreign country. They tell you how people in different countries and cultures welcome each other.
In many countries in Asia, people bow their heads when they greet(问候) each other. This shows respect. In Thailand, people put their hands together and bow. This is called the "wai" and it is a very old tradition. In Japan, people bow down and say hello when they meet each other. Children and young people bow lower when they greet older people. It is their way of showing respect and politeness. In Mongolia, people give a "hadag" to welcome people visiting their home. It's a piece of silk, usually white. And when you get a "hadag", you should hold it in both your hands. This also shows respect.
In most Western countries, people shake hands when they greet each other. But sometimes they just smile and say something like "Hello!" or "Hi!". In many countries around the world, friends greet by kissing on the face, and in some they even kiss three times.
The Maori people in New Zealand touch noses when they meet. This is called the "hongi". It may look strange to you, but it's their special way of saying hello to each other.
The following part is from the book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
Dorothy and her friends wanted to go to the Yellow Road, but there was a river in front of them. The Yellow Road they wanted to go was opposite it.
"How will we cross that river?" the Tin Woodman asked.
"Easy!" the Scarecrow(稻草人) said. "We can cut some trees and make a boat."
They worked together and the boat was ready the next morning. They all got on it. The Tin Woodman and the Scarecrow used long poles(杆子) to make the boat move forward. But the water was running very fast. It took them down the river and they were far away from the Yellow Road.
The Tin Woodman looked worried. "It's no good," he said.
"No, not at all," said the Scarecrow. "It'll be very dangerous for us."
"What's wrong?" asked Dorothy.
"If the river takes us downriver, we're going towards the Wicked Witch(女巫) of the West," answered the Tin Woodman. "Maybe she'll catch and eat us!" "Oh, no," Dorothy cried.
"We must go back to the Yellow Road," the Scarecrow said. He tried to stop the boat with his pole. Unluckily, the boat moved away, but he was still on the pole in the middle of the river.
"Goodbye!" the Scarecrow shouted to his friends.
Everyone looked around and found the Scarecrow was not on the boat.
"How can we save him?" Dorothy asked sadly.
"Well, if one of us can fly, it would be easy," the Tin Woodman said.
