Nathan Sawaya's childhood was a lot of fun. He drew cartoons, wrote stories, and played with plastic toy bricks (積木). His grandparents bought his first set of toy bricks when he was five years old and he's been building with toy bricks ever since. He even took his building bricks to college with him! Instead of books and a computer, he had a model of Greenwich Village made of bricks on his desk.
Nathan started as a lawyer but gave up His highly-paid (高薪的) job to become an artist that uses toys in his art. He uses toy bricks to build everything from the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像) to Superman!

He started by building small models but then decided to do something big and created a self-portrait (自畫像). It took him two days just to build the eyes.

We are already familiar with computers. They work for us at homes, in offices and in factories. We benefit(受益) a lot from the computers ,but at the same time, with the development of this high technology, it also caused a lot of trouble. One of them is the jobs’ problem.
Many people want to work, but it has become more difficult for people to find work in today’s work. Ma Yun’s unmanned supermarket appeared in 2017. It shows that more and more people will lose jobs even the simple job as a shop worker . The economy (經(jīng)濟(jì)) of the world needs to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often this is not possible, and so more people are out of work. Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work instead of many people in short time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holiday. In all of the countries of the world, machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work as much as forty people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.
