“Well, we're in our new house. Let's get a new pet to get along with it,” Mrs. Brown said to her husband.“That sounds like a pretty good idea,” he answered. “Do you want to see the ads in the newspaper?”“Let's go to the animal shelter. Many pets there need homes. Since tomorrow is Saturday, we can both go,” she said.
The next morning the Browns met Mr. Snow at the animal shelter. “We want to be sure that the pets here go to good homes,” Mr. Snow said, “So I need to ask you some questions.”
After they talked for a while, the Browns decided to get a small dog. It wouldn't need a big house or a big yard. A small dog would bark(吠) and warn them if someone tried to break into their house.

    Samantha (her husband, John, called her Sam) left the doctor's house looking perfect, satisfied with her appearance.

    The year was 1862. It seemed that the war with the North would never come to an end. Sam's father had left as soon as possible, fighting for their land, for their new government, for the South.

    At last, Samantha reached the house that she and John owned. It was a cold, rainy night, and she was glad to be home. She stepped into the sitting room. John sat in an armchair, reading a book. When he saw her, he put the book down, and stood, reaching his arms out for her. They kissed briefly. He put a hand to her now slightly round belly(肚子) and asked, “What did the doctor say?”

    “He said the baby was fine and that I seemed healthy. Do you have any news?”

    “Surprisingly, yes.” John hesitated for a moment, as if deciding how he would stop what he was about to say, and then unwillingly continued, “I've been required to join the army.”

    Sam screamed, “What?” She was near tears. “But-but we're just starting out.” Her voice shook. “I thought that after two years of begging my mother to let the two of us get married that our life would finally be happy. Isn't there any way you can get out of this?”

    John answered, “I'm afraid not.”

        “Please. Please, John, if you love me, please get out of this. Break a leg or do something.” She began to cry. John comforted her, resting her head on his shoulder.

    “Sam.”

    “What?”

    “Name the child after me; name it John or Joanna. I'll come back as soon as I can. I promise.”

    Sam smiled, knowing that John never broke a promise. She put her hand to her belly, and, unknown to her, the baby was a girl.

    And unknown to both of them, the promise that John had just made would be the only promise he would ever break.

    French scientist Pierre Curie lived from 1859 to 1906, while Marie Curie lived from 1867 to 1934.They met at the Sorbonne where Marie was a student and Pierre was a professor(教授)of Physics. Together, they discovered "Radium". They won the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics. Marie Curie was the first woman who became a Physics professor at the Sorbonne. And in 1911, she won a second Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

    Thomas Alva Edison was an American inventor who lived from 1847 to 1931 and invented over 1, 000 inventions in his lifetime. Two of the most important inventions were the light bulb and the phonograph(留声机), the first thing to record sound. Edison set up a lab in New Jersey in 1876. He made a lot of money by selling one of his earlier inventions.

    Italian inventor Guglielmo Marconi lived from 1874 to 1937.His most important invention was wireless telegraph(无线电报).In 1899, he invented a machine that made it possible to send wireless messages across the country. In 1901, his machine made it possible for the first message to be sent across the Atlantic Ocean. Marconi won the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics.

    Alexander Bell invented one of the most widely used inventions of all times-the telephone. He lived from 1847 to 1922, first in Edinburgh, Scotland, then in Canada, and finally in the United States. He invented the first telephone in 1876 which made it possible for voices to be sent.

①These days, a growing number of robots are invented. They can not only do difficult tasks in factories but also provide support at home or school. 

②Have you imagined a robot that can dance with you? Some educational robots can do that and they offer help in learning and problem-solving. In classrooms, these robots encourage students and bring them fun. At home, they can be the helpers for the students to improve creativity. For example, aNAO robot is a human-like robot with a cute face and two feet. It's about two-feet tall and can talk, move, and even dance. It helps students learn languages and programming. 

③Some companion robots are able to help your grandparents live more happily. Among them, the robot named The Five should be one of the most excellent companion robots. It was known to the public for the first time on September 24th, 2024. Different from other robots, The Five has got four legs with wheeled feet. Although its face looks small and strange, its powerful fingers enable it to lift an adult weighing 65 kg. It can help the elderly with many tasks including getting up, walking and carrying heavy things. Although it hasn't been widely used yet, it has already been tested successfully in a nursing home. There is no doubt that The Five can bring much convenience to our life. 

④However, there is still something robots can't do. For example, they don't have human feelings or creativity. Unable to think independently, they can only follow programmed instructions. Also, they are usually expensive to produce. 

⑤As modern technology improves, robots will become smarter in the near future, and people will enjoy an easier and more comfortable life.
