One possible version:
With the development of modern science and
technology,robots have entered our lives,which brings
great convenience to us.Household robots which look
modern and fashionable are very popular with people.
They have many functions.Firstly,they can be used
to cook and clean rooms.Secondly,they can help to take
care of the elderly.Moreover,they can even make calls to
deal with emergencies.
However,the technology used in household robots
is not developed well enough to solve all problems.
Sometimes,they may catch viruses and cause safety
problems.
In my opinion,robots should be used to improve
people's lives.Scientists should make robots help us by
developing technology.Also,I think the price is expected
to be low enough for common people to afford one.
