What do you think of when you read the word ‘robot’? Many people think about big machines in car factories or futuristic monsters in films. Few of us think about the past. But people were building incredible machines with human abilities hundreds of years ago!

            For example, Egyptian texts from 1100 BC mention moving statues which ‘chose’ the next king. None of these statues exists, but probably they were built using the ancient Egyptians’ mechanical technology. Another ancient Greek inventor, Philon of Byzantium, built a female robot. If someone placed a cup in her hand, it mixed water and wine to make a drink. However, the robot wasn’t popular because people didn’t need robots to work. They had lots of slaves.

            After that, more and more mechanical robots were built. They did more and more difficult tasks, such as playing the flute, writing and drawing a picture. Although modern technology has moved on, these historical robots still amaze people today.

New Year is usually the best time of the year in many coutries. And it involves different traditions in different countries. Scottish people have some very interesting ones. For example, it is important that you clean your house before midnight and pay all your debts before the old year is over.

For Korean people, New Year’s Eve is the night when noone sleeps. In the past people believed that if you sleep that night, your eyebrows will turn white. And to make sure this doesn’t happen, people leave the lights on every room of the house. Mexican people, on the other hand, place twelve grapes in everyone’s plate in that day.
