世界上第一个机器人是在十九世纪二十年代发明的。

时至今日，机器人已经在很多美国电影中出现。

在一些电影中，他们比人类更强壮，迅速并且聪明。

在现实生活中，机器人主要使用在工场中。

他们为人类做一些危险和艰巨的工作。

机器人也帮助残疾人做一些工作，比如，盲人。

如今，很多盲人都有导盲犬来帮助他们带路。

将来，导盲犬极有可能是机器狗。

有一种机器导盲犬带有轮子，带路的时候，它会走在其主人的前面。

它非常聪明，知道其主人的行走速度。

主人戴着一个特殊的腰带，这个腰带负责从机器导盲犬发送指令到其主人。

比如，“在这里停下”“向左转”“向右转”等等。

在美国，有另外一种机器人在残疾人的日常生活中来帮助他们。

机器人听从主人的声音指令，根据指令完成，比如：

“翻页”“煮咖啡”等指令。

机器人也应用在美国医院中。

他们可以做一些简单的工作。

比如，在某家医院，一个机器人帮助把食物从厨房带到病房。

他永远不会迷路，因为在他的存储设备中，存有这个医院的地图。

尽管机器人可以以很多不同的方式帮助人类，他们永远也取代不了人类。
