In 2000, Asimo, a robot created by Honda, amazed everyone by just walking down the stairs. Twenty years later, a robot named Sophia can even communicate with people by using human language and expressing emotions.

However, robots are just one example of Artificial Intelligence (AI) – the study and development of machines that can copy human intelligence. Nowadays, Al has been applied to various areas of life.

At home, devices such as vacuum cleaners can now use AI to measure the room size and recognise any furniture. They can then decide on the most effective way to clean the house.

In transport, AI can be used on many smartphones to collect information about traffic. This can then help drivers find the most suitable route. Travelling has become much more convenient thanks to AI.

At work, the uses of AI are even more useful and exciting. Computer programmes, such as AI software or chatbots, can help customers plan their holidays, book flights and hotels, and answer questions.

AI is one of the most important inventions of the 21st century. It has completely changed our daily work and life.

1. The negative impacts of the internet

2. How the internet has changed our lives

Many intentions have been created throughout history. Many of them have changed our lives. In my opinion, the most important is the internet.

I think the internet is important because it has changed our lives in many ways. For example, the way we communicate has changed significantly. We can communicate with each other instantly using the internet. Many people even spend more time connecting with other people on the internet than in real life. If you go to a busy café today, you will probably see most people are communicating with their phones and laptops instead of talking to the person next to them.

The internet has also allowed us to work together in a way that was impossible before, such as working from home and working with people from other countries. This is okay. Both ways of working are becoming more popular. By connecting their computer to the internet, people can access the same resources wherever they are in the world. Today, people from all over the globe can work together closely without ever meeting face-to-face.

Although the internet is quite a new invention, it now plays an important role in our lives. Without it, things would be very different.

                                                   LOOPY Laundry!

The washing machine is an important and popular invention all over the world. You can find one in most homes and lots of people can't live without it. But did you know that the washing machine is actually very old?

Jacob Christian Schäffer invented his first washing machine in Germany in 1767. In 1782, Henry Sidgier built a washing machine in Britain. These designs were made out of wood and had handles that turned clothes round and round.

In the 1800s, inventors took the idea to the next level. The inventions in this period became very strange. There were fantastic machines, like the wooden washing machine of American inventor William Clark's in 1871, for people on the go. This washing machine had huge wheels like a cart and people could use horses to take it with them while they traveled. Another fun design was Sarah Sewell's washing machine in 1885. Sarah hated chores, just like the rest of us, and decided to combine childcare and laundry together. She built a special wooden washing machine with a large seesaw, so when her children played, they would power the machine!

The first electric washing machines arrived in the early 1900s. One of them was Thor by Alva J. Fisher in 1908. Later, in the 1930's, inventors created the first automatic washing machines. These machines looked like the washing machines that we have in our homes today.

1. Inventors made the first washing machines in Europe.

2. William Clark made his washing machine in 1885.

3. Sarah Sewell's design used playground equipment.

4. Automatic washing machine design hasn't changed much.

1. How we can use earphones to help us study

2. The different uses of earphones

I think earphones are probably the most important invention of modern times because they have changed our lives in many ways.

Earphones stop you annoying other people in the same room. For example, you could not play music, watch movies with the sound up, or play games without being told to “turn the sound down!” if you did not have them.

Earphones are great for journeys, such as going to school or on trip because you can listen to podcasts or music while you travel. I always listen to something on the school bus, so I do not get bored, and it makes the journey seem quicker, too.

Earphones have changed the way people study. For example, I use my earphones when I want to do my homework. They stop any other noise from disturbing me. I also use my earphones when I am talking to someone on my cell phone. Even if I am on a busy street, I can hear what they are saying. 

Earphones help us in many ways, and that is why I think they are the most important invention.
