If you’d had enough of helping out with the housework then a new robot could be the answer.
Wakamaru, made by Mitsubishi, has been designed to make people’s lives easier by doing jobs for them and
helping them remember things they have to do.
Mitsubishi thinks the robot will be ideal for elderly people who need help around the house, and it will also
act as a hi-tech burglar alarm. If it’s on its own and the robot hears a loud noise or sees anything unusual, it’s been
programmed to e-mail its owner to let them know there is a problem. It’s so clever that when its batteries run out,
normally after about 120 minutes, Wakamaru knows that it needs to recharge itself, so it does!
Mind you, all that doesn’t come cheap, so it you’ve got your eyes on one you’ll have to have a spare £ 5,000
to pay for it.

A. It programs computer games by itself.
B. It does some of your jobs.
C. It can take the elderly for a walk.

Question 22. How does the robot inform you of problem?
A. It sends you an e-mail B. It uses the Internet
C. It produces an alarm D. It telephones
Question 23. How long can the batteries last?
A. a few days B. 1 week C. 2 hours D. 2 days
