It is always expected that housework will be done by robots completely in the future. For years, scientists have been working on this dream, but it still remains in science fiction films.

However, people still hope to have a helping hand around the house. A survey showed that 55% of people were going to use robots at home. Easy things like washing and cleaning are becoming the working domain of robots slowly.

Although this dream hasn't been achieved, the idea of finding a helping hand at home for people has been used to improve people's everyday life. In South Korea, the famous company LG is working hard to improve people's everyday life by high technology. Tasks such as answering the telephone, opening the door, and turning on washing machines and air conditioners can be done automatically. At the same time, these services can not only be done inside the home, but also can be done through the Internet, or even by a mobile phone far away.

Do you remember in 1987 when you first saw a man walking down the road with a big phone in his hand? Now mobile phones are small and almost everybody has got one. The future is arriving slowly, even if we didn't notice it.

"Everyone makes mistakes in life, but that doesn't mean they have to pay for them for the rest of their life. Sometimes wise people make foolish choices. It doesn't mean they're foolish…it means they're improving!"

Mistakes sometimes mean something that you are trying new things. It's good to try new things, because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never have a try, you never make progress. Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.

I remember clearly what life was like back in 2006. I was 17 years old and in a really bad place.

In a chemistry lab, I was doing an experiment. I tried twenty times, but I couldn't succeed. So I decided to stop doing the experiment. I felt a little unhappy.

Mr. Green seemed to understand me. He touched my head with a smile, "Young man, you have done a lot and you've got a lot. You at least know that there are twenty ways you can't use to do this experiment."

After hearing the words, I became excited. I kept doing the experiment and at last I did succeed.

A.Don't be afraid of making mistakes.
