Robots are everywhere. They can be used     1     space, in oceans (海洋) and even in volcanoes (火山)! It’s     2     to think of the future where robots will do everything humans do.

In the future, robots might see, talk and walk     3     humans. Some scientists say you will even have robotic (机器人的) friends in a few     4    . But if that     5    , robots must be able to think and have feelings (感情). Scientists are     6     robots that can act like animals.

“Today, robots are like actors, they may show their feelings,     7     they don’t feel them,” scientist Steels says, “I want to change that.”

“Robots will be more like humans in the future.” Steels says. “But most of     8     will still only do jobs that humans can’t do, or don’t want to do. Robots     9     get bored, tired or scared. So they are perfect for working in factories and     10     places.”

Have your ever heard of the world’s first 3D-printed village? A group called New Story is working with a company called Icon to quickly build lots of houses for poor people who need     1    .The way they build the houses is unusual-it is 3D-printing technology.

Icon created the first 3D-printed house in the United States several years ago. New Story is a group that works to bring cheap but good houses to the poor. The group has     2     over 2,700 houses in places like Bolivia, El Salvador, Haiti and Mexico.

Icon and New Story have shown two new 3D-printed houses in Mexico. The two small homes are the     3     in a planned village of 50 3D-printed houses for very poor people in the area.

The houses in Tabasco have two bedrooms, a     4     room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. Because the houses are created with a computer design, it’s easy to change the design to suit the     5     of different families. Their printer is a machine called Vulean II. It works     6    . The 46-square-meter homes were built in about 24 hours. New Story and Icon believe that with practice they will learn to make the houses even more quickly, and bring the price of     7     them down even further-perhaps as low as $3.500.

As we all know, Wang Xuan was a very famous computer scientist and     1     in the world. He is famous     2     the Chinese Language Laser Typesetting (中文激光照排系统). Laser typesetting for Chinese language was a serious problem for scientists all over the world. But Wang Xuan was not afraid to try new technology. Although he had failed many times, he never gave up. He is believed to be one of the     3     developers in printing Chinese after Bi Sheng. Wang Xuan’s amazing invention is     4     used all over the world. Wang Xuan’s story teaches us that a person should follow his own dream and try     5     best to make it come true.

The most     1     thing for the university student Shaun Rogers is to open the classroom door by himself. Shaun can’t do this without help because he is only six years old. He is the     2     person ever to study at Rochester University in New York. Shaun began to read at two and by the age of five he had read many books and     3     finish writing his first book. “I love learning,” says Shaun. “My hero is the scientist Albert Einstein. He never combed his hair or wear socks.”

Shaun’s mother     4     recognized that her son was different when he kept crying at playschool because he was bored with the old games. She started teaching     5     at home after finding that local schools were not prepared for children who learned at Shaun’s speed. Now Shaun is studying geography at the university and using the Internet to finish his high school studies. However, some scientists warn that too much study can stop a child from     6     normally.” “I don’t care how clever the kid is. A six-year-old boy has to play with their friends,” says Dr. Brian Wood. Mrs. Rogers     7     that all her son’s time was taken up by schoolwork. “He loves playing the violin and has many outdoor     8     such as camping, fishing and swimming, just like other boys of his age.’’

Do you have a beautiful dream? I know almost everyone     1     his or her own dreams in the life.

The dreams are very important     2     them. The dreams can make them     3     harder.

I am studying in a school now. My dream is to be a     4     in West China. Many children there want to go to school     5     they can’t. Their families are very poor and the parents     6     have enough money to send their children to school. But going to school and studying is the only way to change (改变) their     7    . Teachers are greatly needed there,     8     I want to be a teacher to help them. I will be kind to my students and make friends with them. I will give them love and teach     9     how to be a useful person. I think it is a great     10     in the world.
