Question 3 [15 marks]

Read the text carefully and answer the questions below.
A robot is a machine. But it is not just any machine. It is
a special kind of machine. It is a machine that moves. It
follows instructions. The instructions come from a
computer. Because it is a machine, it does not make
mistakes. And it does not get tired. And it never
complains. Unless you tell it to!
Robots are all around us. Some robots are used to
make things. For example, robots can help make cars,
process instant food and installing electrical gadgets like
television. Some robots are used to explore dangerous
places. For example, robots can help explore volcanoes. Some robots are used to clean things.
These robots can help vacuum your house or mow lawns. Some robots can even recognize
words. They can be used to help answer telephone calls. Some robots look like humans. But most
robots do not. Most robots just look like machines.
Long ago, people imagined robots. Over 2,000 years ago, a famous poet imagined robots.
The poets name was Homer. His robots were made of gold. They cleaned things and they made
things. But they were not real. They were imaginary. Nobody was able to make a real robot. The
first real robot was made in 1961. It was called Unimate. It was used to help make cars. It
looked like a giant arm.
In the future, we will have even more robots. They will do things that we cant do. Or
they will do things that we dont want to do. Or they will do things that are too dangerous for us.
Robots will help us fight fires. They will help us fight wars. They will help us fight sickness.
They will help us discover things. They will help make life better.
