Look at the picture of AIBO the dog, (Aibo means ‘pal’ or ‘partner’ in Japanese.) AIBO can walk and beg, It can also wag its tail when it's happy - but it cantt bark. Would you tike a robot? My mum wants a robot to do the housework and the shopping. Her robot will be able to make the beds, do the washing up and make a cup of coffee for her. I'd like a robot, too.

Many years ago, in the cold north of the world, life was hard for people. They fished and farmed but they often didn’t have enough food, so they suffered. Sometimes dragons appeared and attacked their animals. When they couldn’t find other food, these great monsters even attacked people. Because life was hard, many people sailed away to find richer lands. These people were called Vikings. <= M agnus lived in a village by the HOT sea. It was his dream to sail away with the Vikings because he wanted to see the world, But his father needed his help so he stayed at home They made clothes from animal skins for the people in the village. ‘One afternoon Magnus finished his, work early so he went down to the sea. Some Vikings were working there because they were preparing their longboats for a voyage. There was snow on the ground but the sun was breaking through the clouds and the sea sparkled. ‘I would like to go with the Vikings on just one voyage,’ thought Magnus. Some old men were also watching the Vikings and they were talking. ‘Last night two of my sheep were stolen," said one old man. “Was it a dragon?” asked another. ‘I'm not sure,’ the first man. answered, ‘but I saw flames in the sky!” ‘It's a hard winter,’ said the other man, ‘and the dragons are hungry!’ Suddenly there was a sound like a great wind. Magnus looked up in the sky and saw a huge beast. It was a dragon and it was flying towards him. Magnus could feel its fiery breath. ‘Run!’ somebody shouted.

Suddenly he had an idea. In his belt he had a knife which he used for skinning animals. He pulled it out. The rays of the sun shone on its blade. The light which was reflected from the blade shone into one of the dragon's eyes. The beast turned its head. Magnus moved the knife. The light was reflected into the other eye. The dragon couldn’t see because the light was blinding it. It flew up and down and round in circles. Then it flew downwards. Magnus could see the cliffs below them. ‘We're going to crash!’ he thought. He pricked the claws that were holding him with his knife. They opened and Magnus fell into the sea At that moment the dragon crashed into the cliff with a terrible noise. A hole appeared in the rock and the sea rushed in, As the dragon dropped into the sea, huge waves rose and fell, sucking the dragon’s body to the bottom. The water sucked Magnus down, too. He fought to rise to the surface. Then he heard a voice. ‘Help him into the boat!’ Some Vikings ‘that were in a longboat lifted Magnus to safety. “We need men who are brave and clever like you for our next voyage,’ a Viking said. =D So Magnus's dream came true. Somebody was found to help his father, and Magnus sailed with the Vikings. And the Vikings carved a dragon on the front of their longboat in his honour. The hole in the side of the cliff became known as Magnus’s Cave. And to this day the water is always warm.
