    In South Korea, many schools hire English teachers from abroad, but as you know, there are not so many English native teachers in South Korea. A team of engineers has created a robot that they hope will take the place of foreign teachers.

    Robots will save money for schools. The cost to build a robot and hire a Filipino teacher to work with it is around＄20,000 a year. That is about half the cost of supporting a foreign teacher in South Korea.What's more,robot teachers can make students have more fun learning English.

    The robot teacher is called Engkey. She is about one meter tall and is white, egg-shaped. She takes a screen as her face. She can move around her classroom while speaking to students, reading books to them and dancing to music by moving her head and arms.So this robot is more than a video screen on wheels. But Engkey’s voice is not her own. It is controlled by English teachers.With the help of the camera, English teachers in the Philippines can see and hear the students.

    Engkey’s creators say that they don't know how successful the robot is as a teacher now. But they hope that someday all schools in South Korea will have a robot in the classroom.

    Mascots(吉祥物) are great ambassadors(大使)for sporting events. You may remember the five cute "Fuwa(福娃)”dolls from the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Now, get ready to meet two new mascots.

    On Sept 17, there was a giant panda with a white helmet named “Bing Dwen Dwen(冰墩墩)” and a red lantern baby called“Shuey Rhon Rhon”(雪容融) as the two mascots for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games(冬奥会和残奥会). These two mascots show Chinese culture. The giant panda is Chinese national treasure, and the red lantern is an important element(元素) of Chinese New Year celebrations. What’s more, the panda's helmet(头盔) stands for modern society and its white color means the snow and ice of winter sports.

    Not every parent looks for the day when their child goes off to school. In fact, some parents are not sending their children to school at all. This is called homeschooling. In the United States, only about 3 percent of children homeschooled.

    There are some reasons why some parents choose to homeschool. Some parents do not feel their children are safe in school because of bullying(霸凌). Other parents feel that public schools are not good enough. Homeschooling is also seen as a choice for families that live in rural areas, or families that move often.

    Being homeschooled doesn’t mean a student cannot go to college. Most colleges accept homeschooled students. It is important and necessary, however, for students to create a portfolio(作品集) to show what they have learned.

    1.How many students are educated at home in America?（不超过6个词）

    __________________________________________

    2.Why do many parents think schools are not safe?（不超过5个词）
