A 1. 6-meter tall robot may soon become the best friend for lonely elderly people，as Chinese scientists are making the final sprint(冲刺)toward its market launch(投放)，said a senior researcher on the robot project on Saturday.
“We are working on testing the exact functions and ways to reduce the cost in preparations for an expected market launch of the robot in two to three years，”said Li Ruifeng，a member of the project.
He said the team hoped to reduce the cost so that the robot can be priced at 30，000 to 50，000 yuan，which is expected to be an affordable price for most of China’s better-off families.
The robot has been developed with the functions of fetching food，medicine，sounding alarms in case of water or gas leakage，sending texts or video images via wireless communications，and even singing a song or playing chess to entertain its masters.
Li said that the robot，developed independently in China, has technology at the same level as those in western labs.
China set about the research of the robot in 2007，when it was listed as a national key project. It is backed by government funding(拨款). China has the world’s largest elderly population with 159 million people over 60，accounting for 12 percent of its total population. According to a survey by the Ministry of Civil Affairs，more than 10 million caregivers and nurses are needed to attend the elderly population，as most of Chinese elderly prefer to live their retired lives at home.

Twenty years ago, kids in school had never even heard of the Internet. Now, I'll bet you can't find a 1 person in your school who hasn't 2 heard of it. In fact, many of us use it on a regular basis and can even use it at 3 . The "net" in Internet really stands for network. A network is two or more computers 4 together so that information can be 5 or sent from one computer to 6 . The Internet is a vast 7 for all types of information. You may enjoy using it to do 8 for a school project, downloading your favorite songs or 9 with friends and family. Information can be found 10 web pages that companies, organizations, and individuals (个人) create. It's like a giant bulletin board that the whole world uses! But since anyone can put 11 on the Internet, you also have to be careful and use your best 12 and a little common sense.
Just 13 you read something on a piece of paper someone puts on a bulletin board doesn't mean that it's good information, or even correct, for that matter. You have to be sure that whoever posted the information knows what they're talking about, 14 if you're doing research! But what if you're just e-mailing people? You still have to be very 15 if you've never met the person that you're communicating with online. You could be doing something 16 ! You should never give out any 17 information to someone you don't know, not even your name! And just like you can't 18 the information on every website out there. You can't 19 on what strangers you "meet" on the Internet tell you either. In the same way that you could 20 things about yourself to tell someone, as someone else could do the same to you!
