1 . The computers changed our lives in the 1980s. The Internet changed our lives in the 1990s. Now, it is the robots’ turn.
NSK, Japanese robotics company, is working hard on a robot guide dog. The robot makes good use of wheels on its four legs to roll around on the floor. It can also lift its legs to climb up and down stairs.
Blind people can give orders to the robot by pressing the handgrips (手柄). It can also tell its human owner what’s going on.
Such robots will probably never take the place of real dogs, but they have their own advantages. They can use GPS and street maps to lead their owners to the places they want to go.
Another example is a new cooking robot being used in a restaurant in Beijing. It can cook all the dishes on the menu, and you only need to wait several minutes. The dishes are as tasty as those cooked by real cooks. The robots never get tired and are always careful enough to avoid mistakes.
There will be more and more robots like these in our everyday life in the future. It’s not a dream that every home will have a robot. Robots are not only able to help people do housework, they can also help doctors do the difficult operations, play chess with people, play the piano and so on.
Experts believe robots will be used everywhere. In the future, robots will become part of the family and provide service to people. We all look forward to the robot age.

The Wuzhen World Internet Science and Technology Museum, the first of its kind in the world, was open to the public in Wuzhen, Zhejiang province on Nov. 17 of 2023.
The museum is mainly white, and its design combines the elements of Jiangnan water town and the future science and technology, which makes it stand out from the buildings around it.
The museum covers a building area of nearly 43,000 square meters and its exhibition area is 7,000 square meters. The museum has six standing exhibition areas, which use advanced technologies—AR glasses, Intelligent guidance, AI digital human dialogue, immersive interactive experiences (沉浸式体感交互) and a UMAX cinema.
The museum has over 130 valuable exhibits (展品) related to the Internet industry, which are placed in different exhibition areas. The content of them is mainly about these three parts—the key technologies, big events and important people of the global Internet industry, and a brief introduction of the Internet development process.
The museum shows the Internet’s important role in supporting global digital development. It also makes it clear that China decides to follow a path of global digital development alongside other countries worldwide.
“We hope to look through history to see the future, and make the Internet better serve humans,” Li Xiaodong, an expert of the museum, said. “We can let more Chinese people learn about the history and the progress of technology of the world Internet through the museum, and let foreign guests learn about China through the museum. We see the museum as a bridge connecting China and the world.”

4 . On the morning of May 30th, 2019, Huawei helped the BBC use 5G to report news. It was the first time that 5G was used in the world! Actually, China just began to use 5G in June, 2019. What’s the most special about 5G? 5G lets us send and receive information in a very short time. Now, 4G takes about 100 to 200 milliseconds (毫秒) to send and receive information. But 5G will cut the time down to 1 millisecond or less. The big change that 5G brings will not only make our mobile network faster, but also deeply change our lives in many ways.
First, 5G has relation with amusements (娱乐). 5G is about 100 times faster than 4G. This means you can download (下载) a movie in seconds by using 5G. Also, VR games will become more popular with 5G. 5G will make people feel the games even more real.
Second, 5G has relation with traffic. 5G will also make self-driving cars safer. These cars can send messages to each other. They also “talk” to traffic lights and road sensors (传感器). 5G will allow self-driving cars to have faster reaction (反应) than human drivers.
Third, 5G has relation with smart homes. 5G also makes the IOT (物联网) possible. IOT is a large network that connects (连接) everything to the Internet. Smart homes are part of it. Smart homes can make the machines automatic. For example, if the sensor feels the air becoming dry, a smart sprinkler (洒水器) could water your plants by itself. And your toaster (烤面包机) could start making breakfast ahead of time or before you get up.
Although not everyone can use 5G networks now, China is trying its best to let everyone use 5G as soon as possible!

8 . “I could tell it was him by the way he walked.” If you’ve ever said that, you understand biometrics. Biometric technology (生物识别技术) is an important topic in our work and private lives. It includes (包含) the use of finger prints or knowing a person’s voice. It is the science about what a person looks like and how a person does things. Like tree leaves, no two human beings are exactly the same. They’ve got different eyes and different hair. And everyone has a different way of walking or moving.
This technology can tell you from others. At the moment if you travel through an airport, you need your ID card or passport. If you go to your bank to get some money, you need a card and a special number. But what should you do if you lose your passport (护照) or forget your number? Biometric technology can solve this problem. The technology is becoming more and more popular with old people because they no longer need to remember their passwords (密码).
This technology is all around us in our life. We use them to unlock (解开) a smart phone, get into our homes, start our cars without a key or even pay for our shopping.
Nothing is perfect.
