Robots have built a big house in Switzerland using 3D﹣printed materials. It is the first house made by robots for people to live in. It is more environmentally friendly and safer than man﹣made houses.
The creators say the big house will inspire the future of building. "This is a new way of seeing architecture (建筑)," said one of the creators, "How you build is important."
The big house was built completely from robot﹣made materials.It used 60% less cement(水泥)than a man made house. Its ceilings (天花板) were made with a 3D printer. There are 35 parts in the house and each one was built in 60 to 90 minutes. It means that the robots built the full house in just 48 hours.
It is not the first time for robots to build houses The Chinese used 3D printers to build 10 houses in a day in 2014. They created a building the next year. And last year Italians built a house in just 48 hours.
Scientists say one day they could send robots to build houses on the moon. We are curious about how we're building for the future.

Sometimes,we might feel bad about looking different.We might feel like we look ugly or strange.But our differences are what make us special.
I recently watched a speech by a man named Robert Hoge. He was born with a strange﹣looking face.His mother always worried that he would face many difficulties in life.
But what Hoge did changed his mother's mind little by little.Strangers would stare at him or even make fun of him. But he didn't care at all. He decided to accept his face and feel confident(自信的) in himself. He has made a decision to live an amazing life.

Since NASA's Viking Task tested Martian soil back in the 1970s,we've known that Mars (火星) is covered with a desert—harmful to life as we know it.But since tasks to Mars paid attention to what lies under the desert,a different picture has started to appear.
This discovery of water under the Mars' South Pole is the result of radar echoes (雷达回波) that were picked up by an instrument on a spaceship that's been moving around Mars for 15 years.To stay liquid (液体) under the long﹣frozen desert of Mars,the researchers say this lake must have a lot of salts mixed in it.
It is very cold and saltiness would make it a very hard environment for any living thing.But the lead researcher,Professor Roberto Orosei from the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics,said it was not impossible for things to live there.
To search for life in this newly discovered lake,scientists will need to send a robot that's able to make a hole through the mile of ice covering it.But at least the teams looking for life on Mars will now know where to start their search.
正确的写"T",错误的写"F"。
(1)NASA's Viking Task found water in the 1970s.
(2)The researchers believe there must be lots of salts in the underground lake.
(3)It's possible that there are living things in the newly discovered lake.
(4)In order to find where water is,scientists must use a robot to make a hole through the mile of ice.
