The summer vacation ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is a time to enjoy a change from the school year. It’s a right chance to work on different activities that you don’t have much time to do during the rest of the year.
We asked about 2,000 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) people what they would do during the summer vacation. Most of the survey-takers agreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax.
Alexis said, “At schoo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l, I’m really tired, so during the summer vacation I can read books and do many outdoor activities.”

Making robots needs s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oftware engineers (软件工程师), mechanical engineers, electrical engineers and computer engineers, but I think software engineers play the most important part. A mechanical engineer will design the robot’s body. Electrical engineers will design the robot’s controlling, power, signal receiving, etc. Electro-mechanical engineers may work on the robot’s sensors (传感器). Computer engineers will design the robot’s brain. Now companies are hiring robotics engineers to develop everything from automated vacuum cleaners (自动吸尘器) to robot dogs. So do you want to be a robotics engineer How do you find an effective way to get started to become a robotics engineer
Here’s how I became a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )robotics engineer. It started with trying to build a robotic hand as a teenager in my parents’ garage. This was after I first learned how servo systems (随动系统) worked. So I only got the servo part working, but it was a start. Later I went to college to get an undergraduate degree (学士学位) as an electrical engineer. After that I worked as an electrical engineer for three years. I designed several automatic control systems that were very interesting. Then I went back to school, this time as a mechanical engineer, and completed all the undergraduate mechanical engineering courses. After that I also received a Master’s degree and the degree of PhD on robotics.
If you are interested ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in becoming a robotics engineer and would like to chat by email, please feel free to contact me.

Some enterta ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )inment robots are not just remote-controlled (遥控的) speakerphones with video camera “eyes”. They can also go around at parties and play pre-recorded songs. Florida Robotics makes robots like these. They also make more robots that can talk with on-lookers (旁观者), send videos of what they see to the video wall, and make sound effects and smoke.

One possible version:
Our class made a surve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y on whether we need robots in our everyday life. Here is the result.
Two thirds of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) us think we need robots, because they can help us with lots of everyday jobs and they can make life easier. But one third of us think we don’t need to have robots. They say robots cost too much and they can cause some unexpected problems. They also think robots can make people lazy.
I think that ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a robot can help with housework and make it possible for us to spend more time on something more important and exciting. So I would get a robot if possible.
