Robots are playing an important role in our life. They help us a lot.
In factories, robots can help people do lots of work. They work faster and do not need a rest. People will feel bored if they do the same job again and again, but robots will not. And they can work in same dangerous places. Usually people cannot.
In our homes, robots are useful, too. They can help us do some cooking. They can help blind people read newspapers and help the old people move some heavy things. They are our best friends. They are clean and do not need to eat food.
However, robots are not as clever as people. They cannot think like us. If we do not "'teach" them how to do things first, they can do nothing.
