Robots: The Present, Not Just the Future
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think about robots? Is it Wall-E, the Disney robot? He was designed to
collect trash, but he accidentally ended up saving the planet. Or do you think of the lovable robots from the Star Wars movies, C-
3P0 and R2-D2? C-3PO was designed to help humans understand languages, and R2-D2 could fix anything. Unfortunately,
robots with these capabilities exist only in movies.
The Mars rover Opportunity and the underwater robot Trident are exploratory robots. They help us learn about places that are
too difficult or dangerous for anyone to go. But there’s also amazing robot technology that can help save lives. The snakebot, for
example, is long and thin and can move almost like a real snake. It can move forwards, sideways, and even upwards, so it can go
where no one else can. That means they might be able to find someone trapped in a building after an earthquake or a fire.
In the near future, doctors will probably use tiny snakebots for very difficult surgical procedures. The main difference between
the movie robots and today’s robots is that movie robots actually think. But this, too, will change. Robots have already started
doing more complicated tasks. For example, robots have already taught over two million British elementary school children about
recycling. The next step is socially assistive robots. They can “see” people and “talk” with them. The makers of these robots
hope that one day they’ll help people with special needs.

I love to play video games. I have a brand-new game console. My mom bought it a week ago. I use it in my
free time after I finish my homework. My game console are used for controlling the game and to choose
another great game. Sometimes, I ask my friend to play with me. My game console is the best thing ever
