Two robots like humans, Max and Ben, have been helping teach autistic children at Topcliffe Primary School since March last year. The school is the first in the UK to try the new way.Ian Lowe, the head teacher, said, “The robots have no feelings, so autistic children find that they are less terrible than their teachers.” He added, “They are really cute-looking. Autistic children are hard to communicate with adults and other children, but for some reasons they like these robots. “Some children are not able to communicate with others. But they come into school and start to communicate through the robots.” The robots are knee-high and move like children. The school is using them to teach phonics (声学) and play cards or memory and imitation (模仿) games with children from five to ten. Dr Guldberg said, “We do many different activities with the robots acting as a model for the childrens behavior. It is amazing to see how interested and concentrated the children can be when they are working with the robots. It can be very difficult to get autistic children to concentrate.” He added, “If you can meet the needs of autistic children, you can meet the needs of all children. And you know, when people feel safe and interested, they learn much better.”26 . According to Ian Lowe, teachers are_in autistic childrens eyes.AkindBseriousCterribleDstrict27 .

Among them is Be Straw Free. A 23-year-old young man, Milo Cress, started the movement at the age of 16. “I noticed that whenever I ordered a drink at a restaurant, it would come with a straw,” he said. “This seems like a huge waste.”Cress started by asking restaurants in his home city to stop providing straws if customers do not ask for one. Many of them agreed. Over the years, restaurants in the United States joined the movement. On average, they use 50-80 percent fewer plastic straws than they used to.In other countries, there are similar movements. In the United Kingdom, many restaurants now use paper straws instead of plastic ones. The British government is planning to ban all plastic waste by 2042.However, in China, it is very common that many restaurants still use plastic straws. Will you do something to change the situation?
