After a long day’s study at school, you are very tired. So after school you go home to relax. When you get home, a robot greets you. He’s happy to see you and helps you take your school things to your room. He listens to you talk about your school life and tells you a new joke. And he tells you to call your cousin and to say happy birthday. And then he helps you with your homework.

This is your future, and the robot’s name is NAO. NAO has a small body, big eyes and a large head. He can walk and dance. He listens and talks, and he even learns and thinks for himself. His creators (創(chuàng)造者) predict that the robot will be in people’s homes before 2040.

This $16,000 robot knows who you are. NAO can even express emotions (表達(dá)情感). He is a self-guided(自動導(dǎo)向的)robot. A self-guided robot can sense (感覺), think and act. Other robots might do some easy things. For example, a robot might sense things using cameras and think using computers, but with no arms, he can’t act. Another robot can move and sense things, but he can’t think for himself. These aren’t self-guided robots. But NAO can do them all.

Many would agree that when we think of Christmas,we probably think of gifts,Christmas trees and Santa Claus.But behind all these things lies the true meaning of Christmas:the importance of sharing and giving love and joy to people around us.The story in A Christmas Carol is perhaps the best example of this.

A Christmas Carol is a famous novel written by Charles Dickens.It is about an old man named Scrooge who never laughs or smiles.He is mean.He only thinks about himself,and never treats others nicely.He just cares about whether he can make more money and he hates Christmas.One Christmas Eve,Scrooge sees the ghost of Jacob Marley,his dead business partner.Marley used to be just like Scrooge,so he is punished after he dies.He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesn't want to end up like him.He also tells Scrooge to expect three spirits to visit him.

That night,three ghosts visit Scrooge.First,the Ghost of Christmas Past takes him back to his childhood and reminds Scrooge of his happier days as a child.Then the second spirit,the Ghost of Christmas Present,takes him to see how others are spending Christmas this year.Everyone is happy,even poor people.The last one,the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come,takes him to the future.Scrooge sees that he is dead but nobody cares.He is so frightened that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is already the next morning----Christmas Day!

He decides to change his life and promises to be a better person.He happily celebrates Christmas with his relatives.He also gives gifts to people in need.He now treats everyone with kindness and warmth,spreading love and joy everywhere he goes.And that is the true spirit of Christmas!

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

1.What do people think of when people think of the Christmas?

2.What is the true meaning of Christmas?

3.Why is Jacob Marley punished after he dies?

4.Why does Scrooge hate Christmas?

5..How does Scrooge feel after he wakes up on Christmas Day?
