　　You'll see a new doctor at a hospital near London if you go there He is very clever, but he never speaks and doesn't go to medical school．He can work 24 hours and never be tired．He is one metre tall with a face like a TV screen．He has no arms or legs, although he has a lot of buttons(按钮)and switches．The new doctor is, of course, a computer．Doctors often need to ask their patients about their health in the past．But busy doctors can only spend a few minutes with each patient．The new machine, however, can ask a patient questions for an hour if necessary．So when the doctor meets his patient he already has a lot of helpful information．

　　Several clinics and hospitals in Britain are using these computers now．The computers show each question on TV screen．Then the patient pushes one of the three buttons：“Yes”,“No”, or“I don't know”．The computer is really quiet human．If a very personal question is asked, it will be followed by“I hope these questions aren't upsetting(使……烦恼)you．”Or if you answer“No”to the question“Is your father alive”, the machine will reply“I am sorry to hear that．”

　　Most patients like the metal doctor．Some patients even prefer it．They can answer very personal questions more comfortably．

　　There are plans for better computers－perhaps ones that can speak．But the machine will never do the doctor's job．They will help doctors to give their patients better service．

Hi! I’m Harry. Life used to be kind of difficult for me. The muscles(肌肉) in my arms and legs are weak. I have to be in a wheelchair all day. I can’t use my legs at all, and I’m not too great with my hands. If I drop something it stays dropped until someone picks it up for me. I can’t open doors or switch lights on and off. Carrying everything I need for school is a problem too.
Now things are easier. I have a helping hand. Pete is a golden dog that has been trained to help kids like me. Pete was at dog training school for two years to learn how to do different tasks. I had to be trained too. I had to learn how to give Pete instructions and how to take care of him.
When Pete is working he doesn’t play around. My friends know they are not to pet him or call him when he is working. He can pull my wheelchair and pick up things I drop. Pete carries my books and lunch on his back. He pushes the button on the school lift and opens some kinds of doors. He even knows how to switch lights on.
But best of all, Pete is here when I need a friend.
