Li Bai did not like studying when he was a child. Besides, he was very naughty（顽皮的). One day, the teacher was not in the classroom, and students were all reading books by themselves. However, little Li Bai quietly went out to play.
Little Li Bai came to the river at the foot of a mountain. Then he saw an elderly woman grinding（磨）an iron rod（铁杵）on the stone. Little Li Bai was surprised and asked, “Lady, what are you doing ” The elderly woman answered,“I am grinding the iron rod into a needle（针）.” Little Li Bai was surprised and asked, “Oh! It is so thick. How can it be a needle ” The elderly woman answered, “As long as every day I grind the rod a little more, it will be thinner and finally become a needle.” “It is so hard for you to make it,” said little Li Bai. “ But I will keep on doing it day by day. Nothing is impossible,” said the elderly woman.
Hearing it, Li Bai turned around and ran back to the classroom.From then on, he kept studying hard every day and became a talented poet(诗人) later.

You may already see robots in some restaurants. They are about the size of a child. They can welcome people and guide them to their tables. They serve food and drinks and bring dirty dishes back to the kitchen. Some have cat-like faces and even make noises when you touch their heads. But are robot waiters the future
Robot waiters are useful. They can do the jobs as humans do. In the US, there were 15 million people working in the restaurant at the end of last year according to the National Restaurant Association. But many of the restaurant owners said they didn’t have enough workers. Robot waiters can also help save money. A restaurant owner said a robot costs around $15,000, but a person costs $5,000 to $6,000 per month. And the cost of human workers will continue to rise, but technology costs will fall.
The robots are increasing quickly. Sales of robots have been growing in these years. For example, a company called Pudu Robotics in Shenzhen, China, has sold more than 56,000 robots around the world. There are tens of thousands of robots now moving through eating places around
the world. For example, Pizza Hut has robot waiters in 1,000 restaurants in China.
Some people think robot waiters are the future and they are well accepted by people. Some think robot waiters still have a long way to go before they can take place of humans. They cannot take orders. And they cannot walk up steps to different areas of a restaurant. The others think the robot can never take place of humans. People go to the restaurant to have the experience of being served by a human but not a robot.
