Summary
A robot is a kind of machine which not actually a human but works like a human. A robot constructed in
a manner which look alike a man, now a days computerized technology is being used in every field of
life. Normally, a computer with wheels, a body and moving parts (like arms, legs, elbows etc) is called a
Probot. Hence we can assume this is the age of the probot. A probot is more useful than a computer and
robot because it can be utilize to do such things more than a computer can do. A personal computer
could be converted to a probot which helps in house chores like washing clothes, sweeping, dusting and
dish washing etc. Rather than doing simple tasks it can be utilize to teach children. Preparing meals,
entertaining the kids, guarding the house and playing with you in your leisure time.Robots are helpful in
farming, agriculture and industries to decrease the work load. Beside the work load industrial robots are
specialized in productivity with efficiency and increase the gross national product of a country. Robots
take place the man power and unemployment chances are increasing 60%. One robot can do the work
of at least 5 person at a time and creates the problem of unemployment.The type of robot that will
cause the greatest changes is not an industrial but rather a personal robot which is made by doing some
more technical modifications in the personal computer and it is named as a probot. Probot and Robots
are designed to entertain, communicate and help the people.Probot will have a more intermediate and
direct effect on us than industrial robots because they will actually be in the home. Hence the
technology advances probot will example of the exciting advance in technology. They will have more
effect on society than any other invention.

4. Gentle Giants

Summary#01
Gentle Giant is an article written by David Attenborough who wants to show the real picture of a Gorilla,
in this article he shows a kind act of Gorilla Jambo who save a six-year-old boy who had fallen into his
confinement, people were afraid and thought that it will go to harm the baby boy but what actually he
did had surprise all the humanity.When the boy fell into the confinement the Jambo (male gorilla) saw
that baby boy, he feel likeness to his own offspring but what actually puzzle him was the shirt of the boy
yet Jambo behave according to his nature and he did not harm him.People think that gorillas are furious
and aggressive and they are wild. But this is a misconception about Gorillas which was proved wrong in
that incident forty years ago when a boy who falls into a cage would not be harmed by Gorillas. Gorillas
are furious and angry and that was all happened because of human behavior, they turned out dangerous
and violent, this is a reaction to the action.People start horrifying with Gorillas when an American
explorer published a book about hunting gorillas and in that a horrifying picture of a gorilla roaring and
standing above the hunter’s body in that picture, and then the movie King Kong became the reason for
their horrific reputation. In reality, they are very inoffensive, entirely vegetarian live in groups ruled by a
big male gorilla that cared for and protect his family. The mothers watch their babies that they do not
get into trouble, and young babies play or crawl over the male gorilla. They are immensely strong but
they do not use their power to harm other animals.They are not hostile to humans, they only become
furious and aggressive when they feel in danger or attacked by men, they also become violent when
they are kept away from their families in solitary confinement.

Zoological gardens are now being developed to give animals a natural environment, so they can live with
their families as they live in jungles. But very sadly like other animals, these gorillas are decreasing in
numbers, humans are destroying the wildlife and we are losing many precious lives of animals we have
to stop them to become extinct. In reality we humans are violent and dangerous to these animals that
are very inoffensive and kind.

vegetarians they do not attack on the other animals.They look after their children with great care and
loving creature,they only show their anger and become fierce when they attacked or treated badly.They
also become hostile when they are kept separated in the cage from their families.Scientific methods are
used now a days to keep the animals in Zoological gardens.The animals are being treated affectionately
in the Zoo therefore the animals also show their love and become non aggressive.It is shocking that the
umber of gorillas is decreasing due to the activities of man.The cutting of forests is common in the world
