Nine-year-old Regina, from Scotland, has always loved taking photos. When she was just three, she picked up her father, Kevin’s camera, and asked him how it worked. But rather than just being a curious(好奇的) child or a girl with an inability to leave anything alone, Regina is in fact a professional wedding photographer.
“Regina became interested in photography at a very young age, ” her father, and fellow professional photographer, Kevin, tells Daily Mail Australia. “She first started asking questions about how to use my cameras.
Regina has never been on a training course,” He goes to explain that he has never forced his daughter to take photos like her dad does for his job. “I just answer questions when she asks them, and when she wants to do some shooting she can. Over the years she tagged along to quite a lot of shoots, so her skills just grew through experience.”
These skills reached the highest point on April 15 this year, when Regina shot over 400 photos at her first wedding. “She completely love it,” Kevin said. “She is quite a quiet girl, but when she has that camera in her hands she is super-confident, and had no problem dealing with people or setting up shots throughout the day. Regina’s next wedding is on July 1 and several of my other brides have called to ask if she can come along as they love her work. I honestly don’t have words to describe how proud I feel,” he concluded.
“In the past, Regina said a few times that she just wants to keep it as a hobby,” said Kevin. “But over the past few days, upon seeing some of the response her work has got and some of the nice messages she’s received from people all over the world, she has said she might like doing this when she’s older.”

Chinese researchers have developed a robot to help doctors treat(治療) COVID-19(新冠肺炎) and other highly contagious(傳染的) diseases.
The machine can do some of the same medical examination tasks as doctors. Cameras record the robot's activities, which are controlled far away so doctors can avoid coming in close contact(接觸) with infected(感染) patients.
The robot's main designer is Zheng Gangtie, an engineer and professor at Tsinghua University. He said that he got the idea for the robot in January. At that time, the number of cases of the COVID-19 virus was rising quickly in Wuhan Zheng said a friend of his is the head of a hospital in Beijing. His friend told him that one of the biggest problems in dealing with COVID-19 was that healthcare workers were getting infected themselves. Zheng said he wanted to do something to help this situation.
So the engineer set up a team and went to work on it. The new robot is almost completely automated(自動化的). "Doctors are all very brave," Zheng said. "But this virus is just too contagious...We can use robots to do the most dangerous tasks." However, Zheng said he had heard from some doctors that it would be better not to build such robots to be fully automatic. This is because many patients still desire(渴望) a human medical worker to help calm them during treatment.
The team has made two automatic robots by now and both have been tested by doctors at hospitals in Beijing. One machine was taken to Wuhan's Union Hospital, where doctors there were being trained to use it.
1.According to the passage, the two robots __________.
A.were almost fully automatic B.were both taken to Wuhan
C.were both made in January D.can only help fight COVID-19
2.Why does Zheng Gangtie want to develop the robot to help doctors?
A.Because his friend is the head of a hospital in Beijing.
B.Because the doctors are afraid to be in contact with patients.
C.Because many patients want robots to calm them during treatment.
D.Because doctors may get infected themselves when treating patients.
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Zheng Gangtie made the robots alone in Beijing.
B.Zheng Gangtie made lots of money by making robots.
C.Not all the doctors want the robots to be fully automatic.
D.The infected patients would like robot doctors to treat them.
