About 1 in every 160 children has autism(自闭症). Lots of people are working hard to help those children. And luckily, there are also robots helping them.
Catherine, a Hong Kong professor, has developed an educational programme. It uses role-playing robots. The programme, Robot for Autism Behavioral Intervention(RABI), is for children with autism between the ages of 3 and 18. Its purpose is to help them be more social(社会的). According to Catherine, more than 1, 200 children have taken part in the programme since it was started in2015.
As we know, it is tough for people with autism to communicate with others. Others can't understand what they want to say easily. So they feel worried or nervous about half of the time. The robots teach them social skills to make them less nervous. In a typical class, two small robots act out social conversations on a table. It helps the children see the difference between proper and unacceptable behavior. After that, the daughter has been in the programme for seven months. Her social and communicative skills have improved a lot.
More than 20 non-profit(非盈利的)groups and public schools in Hong Kong and Macao have joined the programme and helped develop it. Catherine hopes the programme can help more children with autism.
a. groups b. children c. robots d. public schools
