If someone asked you to draw a picture of a robot，how would it look? Like a person? That's how we often picture robots in our minds. But real robots look many different ways.

Some robots have TV cameras for eyes. Some have special parts that help them touch. Many have computer brains. How robots look depends on the job they have to do. Some can even have their parts changed，so they can do different jobs.

Some robots look like huge insects. America sent some robots to Mars (火星) in 1976. They moved on the surface and did experiments there.

Robots can do boring jobs. They can do dangerous jobs with fast­moving machine. They can do dirty jobs，such as painting things with oil colours. They can do jobs no person could do，such as picking up hot metal.

Robots don't get bored. They don't get tired. They don't mind getting dirty.

Some people are worried because they think robots will take jobs away from people. But that doesn't have to happen. After all，people are able to control robots. People must remember that robots are good at some things and humans are good at others.

Some robots often tell people they don't have to be afraid of robots. These robots help people understand that robots can do boring，dangerous and dirty jobs and people can do better ones.

A girl complained to her father about her hard life. She didn't know what she had to do and wanted to give up. She felt tired of fighting and fighting. One problem had been finished but another came over.

Her father，a cook，took her into the kitchen. He poured water into three pans and boiled(煮沸) them. After boiling，in the first pan was put some carrots，the second was put some eggs and the last was put with coffee.

The girl waited impatiently (不耐烦的) ，confused by what her father did. About 20 minutes later，her father took out the carrots and put them in a bowl. He took the eggs and put them in a bowl. After that the coffee was poured into a cup. “My sweet heart，what do you see？” he asked.

“Carrots，eggs and coffee，” she replied.

I love to tell the story about how I met my best friend—Tiger. We met at the school fair(集市) . Each year，all the fourth­grade classes hold a school fair. Everyone in fourth grade works at the fair. Some sell ice cream，drinks and snacks. Others take care of the little children who ride the rides.

I got the second job and I've never regretted it，because that's where I met Tiger. My job was to help little children get on the back of a little horse. I kept telling the children to wait their turn and holding ice cream for them while they rode about. One thing was clear to me. I was growing older and should be more responsible (负责) .

Suddenly，a boy came to the horse. He took the little horse's reins (缰绳)! The horse stopped，and the girl on its back started to fall. I was trying to reach the girl when I saw Tiger go by my legs. It held the horse's reins and pulled the horse away from my legs. I caught the girl just before we both hit the ground. The girl sat on top of me. She was laughing at the ice cream on my face. The horse's reins were in Tiger's mouth!

Thanks to Tiger's fast action，I saved the little girl. We were both heroes. And Tiger，the fastest dog I've ever known became my new best friend.
