sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 46 to 40.
The first robots were invented in the 1920s. Robots have appeared in many
American films. In some films, they are stronger, faster and cleverer than people.
In real life, robots are mainly used in factories. They do some dangerous and
difficult jobs for humans.

robot dogs.
One kind of robot guide dogs has wheels. It moves in front of the owner. It is
very clever. It knows the speed of its owner’s walk. The owner wears a special

belt. This belt sends instructions to the owner from the dog, such as “Stop here”,
“Turn left” or “Turn right”.
In the United States, another kind of robot helps disabled people to take care
of themselves in their daily life. The robot hears the sound of its owner’s voice. It
follows instructions such as “Turn the page” or “make a cup of coffee”.
Robots are also used in American hospitals. They can do simple jobs. At one
hospital, for example, a robot takes meals from the kitchen to patient’s rooms. It
never gets lost because this robot has a map of the hospital in its computer
