Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.

While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.

The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.

Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential(潜在的) applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.

Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.

The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,” said Breazeal.

1.How are social robots different from household robots?

A. They can control their emotions.

B. They are more like humans.

C. They do the normal housework.

D. They respond to users more slowly.

2.What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?

A. Communicate with you and perform operations.

B. Answer your questions and make requests.

C. Take your family pictures and deliver milk.

D. Obey your orders and remind you to take pills.

3.What can Oshbot work as?

A. A language teacher. B. A tour guide.

C. A shop assistant. D. A private nurse.

4.We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will ______.

A. train employees B. be our workmates

C. improve technologies D. take the place of workers

Every morning,many girls in the African country of Zimbabwe rise with the sun and go to fetch water

for their families.They have to walk many miles an carry the water home on their heads. Where they live,there is no running water they can get at all.

“You have to relax your neck and head and make it follow the load(负荷)，”one girl told me ,“It is easy for you to do that if you practice for many times.” I have lived in Zimbabwe all my life.But I had never tried to balance a pot on my head.I have made efforts many times and I have also practiced it for long.But it was not east at all.I managed to walk only several yards before the pot fell off my head.The girls watching covered their mouths and laughed at my poor head-balancing skills.

In reality,water is not the only thing that requires head-balancing skills in everyday life.In most of these villages,there is no electricity for cooking,so fire wood is used instead.The girls must collect and carry it back to their villages.They insist the easiest way to do this is on their heads.

Even at school,head-balancing skills come in handy.At a school,I saw a group of girls fetching bags of sand that were to be used to build a new classroom.They carried these bags with ease.When I tried,I could not beat the weight.

Girls in many countries worldwide prefer to carry things on their heads.They are taught this skill at a young age and grow up to have strong necks and great posture.For these girls,balance is simply a way of life.

Halloween is perhaps the third most popular holiday for parties, coming after New Year’s and Christmas. With Halloween, we have the opportunity to dress up for the night and “be someone else”.

Team Maker

If you are going to have games, you may require teams. One way to put together the teams randomly, thus encouraging guests who don’t already know each other, is to have them draw pieces from a cauldron(大锅) or witch’s hat. Beforehand, write enough words on pieces of paper to have one for every guest. On the pieces of paper write words like: Egyptian tomb, pyramid, magic wand, magic spell, black cat, etc. Everyone draws a piece of paper.

Dress Up the Dead

This game is not for the shy and may result in some small rude performance. For the game, you will need a put-together skeleton. They can be found in the Halloween section of many stores. The skeleton can be of wood or plastic, so long as it can be taken apart easily and can be recombined together. The host “buries” the broken up skeleton under a pile of sawdust, loose dirt or hay in the yard. The first team, while being timed, must discover all the skeleton pieces then run to where there’s a hook for hanging the skeleton. They must recombine the skeleton and then, donating parts of their own clothing, dress the skeleton in a shirt and pants.

Murder Mystery

Host a murder mystery as a play. Select players, either by volunteers or by random drawing or even have guests vote. While the players read over their parts, the rest of the guests arrange the room. Set up a row of chairs facing the party audience. This will be the “stage” where the murder mystery players will sit and perform their roles. The host keeps the game (play) moving, usually by playing one of the detective characters.

February 14th is Valentine’s Day! In China, it is only a day for young boyfriends and girlfriends. But my teacher and friends in America told me that Valentine’s Day is a public day.

This was my first Valentine’s Day in America. I didn’t understand the customs(风俗) clearly. Maybe I didn’t need to send any gifts. I watched others to see what they did, so next time I can understand.

On that day, when we began the reading class, Mr. Peters gave every student some chocolates and said, “Happy Valentine’s Day!” I was very happy the teacher gave his students gifts and blessings. I never saw that in China. Maybe American teachers are very different. I didn’t buy a gift for the teacher, so I owed(欠) a gift to the teacher. Anyway, I want to say, ”Thank you, Mr. Peters, and I’m sorry.”

When we had a break, one of my classmates gave me a Pokemon card. It was very funny and I felt thankful, but I thought I owed a gift again.

When we were coming to our grammar class, suddenly I heard someone calling me. ”Shelly!” I stopped. Another classmate who had only been in our class one day gave me some chocolates. She said, “These are for you and your friends. Have a good day!” I was looking at her leaving and thinking that we were in the same class only one day, but now we are friends. That’s very great, but I owed a gift again.

When I came home, my Chinese friend sent some roses and chocolates. I was surprised and happy because I had never received roses in my past life, but I hoped it was the last gift. I didn’t want to owe more gifts.
