But now can my robots talk with me Yes, you're right. This passage is written 10 years ago .But now, 10 years later, we can communicate with each other, right So we will never know what will happen in the future. And can robots think like us No, never.

But another question comes. Why do we make robots like snakes (What are the snakes robots advantages They're small and they can move. They are small and smart. Okay, really good.
So today we have learned a passage of four paragraphs. The first paragraph may tell us what are robots like in movies. The second paragraph tells us what are the robots do in factories. And the third paragraph mainly tells us the different scientists opinions. And the last paragraph may tell us the robots in the future. Now it's our work to make more robots, more useful robots. Okay, so we just now said that snake robots were not possible 20 years ago, but now can we see snake robots Yes.Okay. Mainly in some earthquake places, right Okay.And computers and rockets are seemed impossible 100 years ago, right But now do you have a computer Yes. Have you seen a rocket Yes. fly up to a moon.
