There are a few differences between our school and schools fifty years ago; we don’t use pens and paper any more, but very light, very flat (扁平的) computers that look a bit like sheets of paper (we write everything on them). However, we study pretty much the same subjects as people studied fifty years ago-Chinese, English, Maths, Science, Geography, History.
My favourite subject is “Robot Maintenance (机器人维修)”. My grandfather is always asking me to fox her robot when it goes wrong and starts putting salt in her coffee or something like that. When I’ve done it, she always says, “Oh, young people these days are so clever! I wish I’d studied robotics (机器人学). But in my day, we had to make our own coffee!!” You young people don’t realize how lucky you are…”.
