prepared. That made him very happy.
江先生是阳光镇一家大公司的经理。他总是太忙没有时间放松。“我必须买个机器人，这样我就能有更多的空闲时间了，”江先生想。因此他从机器人商店订购了一个机器人。那个机器人让江先生的生活轻松多了。当他早上起床时，早饭做好了。商务套装熨烫得很平整，午餐盒也已经准备好了。那让他很高兴。
While Mr Jiang was at work，the robot would do all the housework,It would go shopping at the supermarket as well.
当江先生在工作时，那个机器人会做所有的家务。它也会去超市购物。
When Mr Jiang returned home from work，his flat would look as good as new，and a delicious dinner would be ready for him.After clinner，the robot would tidy up.That allowed Mr Jiang to do whatever he liked.He would watch TV or do some reading.
当江先生下班回家时，他的公寓看起来会像新的一样好，并且美味的晚餐也会为他准备好。晚餐后，机器人会收拾干净。那使江先生可以做他喜欢做的一切事。他会看电视或者读书。
It seemed that in general the robot satisfied Mr Jiang's needs.
看来，这个机器人大体上满足了江先生的需求。
After a few comfortable weeks，however，things star ted to go wrong.@ The robot caught a virus and no longer worked properly，It began to make stupid mistakes.Sometimes it woke Mr Jiang up at four o'clock in the morning.When
Mr Jiang got home, he would find his flat in a complete mess, food was laid on the bed；milk was stored in the rubbish bin；coins,bills and his privat papers were spread all over the floor.Moreover,the robot moved too fast on its wheels and often knocked things over.Mr Jiang did not know what to do with it．
然而，几周舒适的生活之后，情况开始不对了。机器人感染了病毒，不再正常地工作了。它开始犯愚蠢的错误。有时它在早上4点钟叫醒江先生。当江先生回到家，他会发现公寓里乱作一团：食物被放在床上，牛奶被储存在垃圾桶里，硬币、账单和他的私人文件撒得满地都是。此外，机器人的轮子移动得大快，经常撞翻东西。江先生不知道怎么处理它。
In the end,Mr Jiang decided to return the robot to the robot shop.Robots can help people a lot,but they can also be too much trouble!
最后，江先生决定把机器人退回机器人商店。机器人能帮助人们很多，但是它们也有太多的麻烦！
