What is science fiction
Science fiction, abbreviation SF or sci-fi, is a form of fiction that deals principally with the impact of actual or imagined science upon society or individuals.
Lead-in
Have you read any science fiction What elements does science fiction usually include
Yes, I have read some. These stories often contain scientific devices that we do not have now, and technologies that seem impossible, such as time travel. The characters may have bodies, cultures, and backgrounds that are very different than our own. The themes often include space exploration, alien contact, AI, and the future of humans, etc.

Robots are most commonly used today in factories to make things. There are a few robots which are being used in shops and in the home, but for the most part they appear to be information providers, educational toys, or house cleaners.
There has been a lot of work to design domestic robots lately, and they may soon be a reality.
Many of these robots are being designed for the handicapped or the elderly. For example, a handicapped person or an elderly person who has trouble moving around the house could be helped by a robot. The robot can also cook and feed people when they need help.

老师和她的学生们来了。
