Last Sunday, Amy felt quite upset because her mom ordered her to clean her bedroom. Joey, Amy's little brother, walked in and said, "Amy, I feel so bored."
"Not now, Joey," Amy said. "I have to clean my room, or Mom will be angry with me. When she's angry, she'll ask me to do the dishes for a week." She picked up a sock under the chair and put it on her bed. "Oh, this is boring," said Amy.
Joey really wanted to play. After thinking for a while, he said. " Pretend (假装) that you are a robot and I will be your master (主人) From now on, you must listen to my orders."
"Well, that sounds like fun!" Amy said. "Let's have a try."
Joey sat on the chair and said, "Robot, pick up your clothes and put them in your wardrobe (衣柜)."
"Robot, pick up your books and put them in your bookcase," said Joey. Amy did as Joey said.
…
After about twenty minutes, Amy's room looked a lot tidier. She said to Joey, "Hey, thank you for helping me clean my room."

What will happen in 100 years? What will the changes be? Can you imagine? The population is growing faster. There will be more people in the world and they will live longer than people now. Maybe some of the rich can live on the moon. Hand-held computers will be much smaller and more useful and there will be at least one in every home. The Internet speed will be much faster. People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and traveling. Traveling will be much easier and cheaper. There will also be changes in our food. No one will eat meat every day, they will eat more fruit and vegetables instead. Work in the future will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work can be done by robots. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.
