His younger sister follows his example. She cleans her own 8 . She makes her bed and 9 her clothes once she takes them off without being told.
Their parents are happy. Working together has brought them closer. They share everything during dinner— 10 and worries alike(同样地). This has become a good daily habit.

All of us know the Chinese character(汉字)“家”. It means home and family in Chinese. “宀” means “house” and “豕” means “pig” . Why is the pig in the house?Well, “家” comes from jiaguwen. In the old days, people liked to keep pigs at home, so “a house with pigs” means “home”.
There are some old sayings about this character, such as “There’s no place like home.” and “East or west, home is best.” Both of them tell us home is the best place for everyone.

Are you troubled by housework?A new robot is here to help! Recently(最近), short videos of a robot called Mobile Aloha cooking at someone’s home caught lots of attention(注意) online.
In the videos, we can see the robot preparing dishes, from cutting vegetables to cooking eggs. It’s also good at watering the plants, taking care of pets, sweeping the floor and washing clothes. Linda, a housewife, joked, “As long as this thing doesn’t try to kill me while I’m asleep, I am in real need of it.”

Sounds good?However, ▲ Mobile Aloha carelessly broke plates, knocked over things and even burned(烧焦) a dish. In fact, Mobile Aloha isn’t good at doing the housework on its own. Instead, it learns from human actions before doing each kind of housework. When the situation changes, it can’t work well without a human “teaching” it.
“The robot can successfully move chairs 80 per cent of the time,” said the scientists after they did a study into it. For cooking dishes, it’s only 40 per cent. In

short, it’s far from perfect. AI robots are good at tasks such as maths and playing chess, but they do worse than a one-year-old child when it comes to simple tasks like cleaning. And it’s the same for Mobile Aloha. For example, if its body doesn’t move correctly—even just with a small difference, its arm may move too far to pick up a glass.
“Robots are not ready to take over the world,” the team said later.

(石家庄月考)As far as I can remember, my family has always had family dinners. When I was a little boy, my mother began to ask us to go to family dinners at least once a week. Every Sunday, my mother would buy a lot of food and bring it to my grandma’s house. We would wait for more family members to come before eating together at the table—my grandma’s dinner table. In the past, I felt that the tradition was a little silly.
However, I find it’s fantastic to get together as a family now. For me, dinner is

not just a meal, but a good time to talk and play with family. We can talk about everything after a long week of school and work. Every time I sit at the dinner table, my grandma’s dinner table, I look around and find so many people who truly love me. It makes me feel so happy.
Finally, I understand the true meaning of this tradition. It’s not about the dinners or activities. It’s about family, a group of people who care about each other.
Now, I’m always expecting Sunday to arrive. All the memories(记忆) around my grandma’s dinner table will last forever.
