With the development of science and technology, intelligent robots will be wide used in the future. At home, robots will help people do some housework and taking care of the elderly, babies and patients. In addition to these task, robots will even be able to play the chess and do exercise with people. In factories, robots will be used to perform some dangerous jobs avoid accidents. Robots will change our future life by many ways, what will make it more colorful and comfortable. Therefore, we shouldn’t depend on intelligent robots too much, for they were made to help humans rather than replace us. As helpers of we humans, robots should be used properly.

I lived in Port Stewart, one of the small villages on the coast. I rented a small room at the top of an old two-storey Victorian house. From its window I could look out on the grey, ever-restless ocean,1.
An old retired couple lived in two rooms on the ground floor. Mr. Paul was in his eighties and I remember him going for his nightly walk accompanied by his walking stick. 2.

His wife would sit quietly in the kitchen beside the fire constantly knitting(织毛活)and offering me cups of tea as 1 came in from the pub or back from studying.
3.I was not surprised, aware even then that age can be cruel. But what moved me most was his rapid worsening, the fact that I never again saw him walking bent double against the wind.
4.The fact that I was only aware of this old man's illness through his rasping( 刺耳的) cough and his wife's nursing him gave the house an air of heavy sadness.
One evening, I came in from the cold and went straight to the kitchen to heat myself at the fire. Mrs.Paul sat alone. There was a silence I couldn't under-stand. 5. “Would you like a cup of tea?” I asked. She looked up slowly and l remember her old but still quite beautiful face as she said calmly and without emotion: “My husband is dead.”

During summer holidays my mother and I used to escape to one of the lakes north of Prince Albert. In its magic surroundings we spent the long summer days in the open air, swimming and boating or just lying dreaming in the sun.
The last summer was particularly wonderful. For one thing, I was in love for the first time. My boy friend Don worked in Saskatoon, but the lake was his place-the beautiful wilderness attracted him deeply, so I thought it was not to see me that he got on his motorcycle as many Fridays as he possibly could, and drove three hundred miles along the rough roads to spend the week-ends at our place. Sometimes Don couldn't come, because he was hard up(生活拮据), and sometimes worked overtime.
One Friday night a storm broke out. I lay in bed and listened to the thunder and the rain beating on the roof. I tried not to expect Don. Yet I couldn't help imagining him fighting the storm. His motorbike, which had always looked to me so heavy, seemed fragile enough to be blown onto its side by the first strong wind.
I tried to close my throat against the tears. But when my mother, driven by the deep sympathy and understanding between us, came in to me. she kissed my cheek and found it wet.
“Don't get upset, Jane”, she said softly. “He may still come.”
It was hours later that I suddenly heard the sound of the roaring(轰鸣的) engine. The storm was dying. I lay still, relief and pain fighting for ascendancy(支配地位)within me as I heard Don's heavy tired footsteps on the wooden stairs.
