The world’s first robot police officer started work. Its name is “RoboCop”. It worked in malls, airports and on the street in Dubai (迪拜). By using a touch screen on its body, people can report crimes (罪行), pay office fines and use other police services. The uniformed RoboCop is 170cm tall and weighs 100kg. It has a serious look. It can shake hands and speak six languages, so it is able to have a chat with you and answer your questions. It can also tell when you are happy, sad or even smiling so as to find the possible or wanted criminals (罪犯). You won’t be surprised if it can dance very well. So far, the RoboCop has taken the place of most policemen in a perfect way.

【推荐2】With the rapid development of science and technology, the ways of communication among people have changed a lot in the past years.
As we all know, in ancient times, people communicated with others who were far away only by writing letters. It took a very long time to get the message.
In the 19th century, telegraph was invented, but it was not widely used. The letter was still the commonest way at that time. In 1836, John Coker invented the first electromagnetic telegraph (电磁电报机) in the world, and then telegraph came into being and was popular. It was much faster than letters, bringing great convenience to people.
As time goes by, telephones become increasingly widely used. Now, phones have been developed as mobile phones, fixed telephones, Internet telephones and other categories. They are important communication tools in modern information society.
In addition, network communication is popular as well. It is especially widely welcomed by the youth. A great number of people communicate with others on the Internet by using software (软件), such as QQ, Wechat, BBS and MMS. Using software is easy. A computer which is connected to the network is enough. In China, Wechat has become the most popular communication software nowadays. Wechat, known as Weixin in China, is a mobile phone text and voice messaging communication software which is developed by Tencent. People who make video calls can not only hear the sound, but also see the people they talk to.

“Zhu Rong is regarded as the earliest god of fire in traditional Chinese culture.” A space official said, “The first Mars rover was named Zhu Rog. The named stands for light and hope for space exploration in our country, and means to guide humans to continue exploration.”
After leaving the earth last summer, Zhu Rong circled Mars for several months and landed on it in May. In recent years, our country has sent up the world’s first quantum satellite (量子卫星), and Chang’e-4 has made a soft landing on the moon. We have made great progress in space technology and will soon start building our own space station.

【推荐3】Welcome to your future life!
You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. You look young. In 2035, many people can live to be about 150 years old. So at the age of 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents look the same age as you!
You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” can change the color or style as you like.
You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but you hear the voice, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge (电冰箱) remembers the information about the milk. It knows that the milk is not fresh. In 2035, every household appliance (家用电器) is like your secretary (秘书).
It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend with your watch. Such “smart technology” is all around you.
So will all these things come true? “All these will come true, even better,” says a scientist.
I hope so and I am looking forward to the new life.

【推荐1】My father loves his garden. He planted some seeds in it. But at that time, I didn’t understand why working in the dirt excited him so much.
Unluckily, in early May, my father was seriously injured in an accident. He had to stay in bed for a while. My mother had several business trips, so I said that I would take care of his garden until he recovered. I assumed that the little plants would continue to grow as long as they had water, and luckily it rained fairly often.
One Saturday morning, my father said to me, “Christine” I panicked for a moment but then I quietly went to the nearest store to buy some vegetables.
When I gave the salad to him, he said, “Oh, what a beautiful salad! I can’t believe the carrots are this big already. You must be taking very good care of my garden.” I felt a little bit guilty.
Coming home, my mother saw the bag from the supermarket in the kitchen. I was embarrassed and I admitted, “Dad wanted a salad, so I went to the store.” She laughed but promised to help me in the garden and weeks later I was finally able to pick some.
I carefully made a salad and took it to my father. He looked at it with a hint of a smile. “Christine, the carrots are smaller in this salad, but they taste better.”
Now, I better understand how putting a lot of effort into caring for something can help you appreciate the results more, however small they may be. Perhaps this was one of the reasons for my father’s love of gardening.
