Do you believe that robots can read the news? They look and sound like people. There are two robots, called “Kodomoroid” and “Otonaroid”. They read news on an earthquake in Tokyo. One day they may read the news on TV. 

    Japanese spend a lot of money on robots. Japanese people like robots. They think they are helpful. But people in other countries think robots are a little scary(可怕的). A man said, “We will have many robots in our lives in the future.” He said robots are now cheap enough to buy. They are the same price as a computer.
