There are different houses at my school in Australia. These houses are student groups. You will understand what I mean if you are a Harry Potter fan. The Hogwarts School is divided (分成) into four houses.

   We have six houses at my school,St Paul's Grammar School. My teacher put new students in different houses in the first week of this term.

   I am in Cornwallis. The logo of our house is a dragon on a yellow background. Unlike in Hogwarts,students of the same house at St Paul's do not live on campus,but we do activities together.

   Each house is divided into several tutor groups. Since different houses and different tutor groups are made up of students from different grades,I can make friends with students in different grades.

   Every morning we go to our tutor groups to register (登記) .We have a nice chat together for about half an hour before classes begin. We talk about the most boring teachers and the most popular students in the school.

   Sometimes we sell and buy cakes for charity events. This month our tutor group decided to make a short film. So far we still do not know what kind of film we are going to make,but we will discuss that later.

   Last week,they celebrated my birthday and bought a birthday cake for me. We also play handball together. I am not good at it now. But I am still learning. I like the house system. It is interesting and helps me fit into school life in Australia.

   It's common to carry things on bikes,trains and even planes. But do you know small drones (無人機(jī)) can help carry packages to your home?

   For two years,Google has been working hard in their secret research lab. Their latest project is called Project Wing.

   Project Wing is Google's invention of a drone delivery service. It is half plane and half helicopter and is slightly bigger than a seagull. It can deliver packages to buyers by drone to door.

   The first drone test was made on a farm in Warwick,Australia. It sent sweets and dog treats to a farmer. The drone flew to the farm,hovered (盤旋) , and released the package with a wire. Delivery is here!

   The best thing about drone delivery services is that delivery times will be greatly cut down, (a) 你可以 上午在網(wǎng)上訂購你喜歡的東西。And by noontime,the delivery drone will land your package.

   Throughout history,there have been a series of inventions that have helped people move things around,said Astro Teller,lead scientist of Google Wing,to CNN. Teller thinks Google drones will be the next big step in the series.

   Interestingly,drones are not that ( b) .

The US has been using armed drones since 2002. But drones may also get another use. Film companies have asked to use drones to shoot videos from the sky.

   (c) Yet Google's delivery drones won’t be able to fly to customers any time soon. However,Google has proved that drone delivery is possible. And with Amazon announcing their drone delivery service last year,the heat is on to make safe and suitable drones to fly the skies for customers.
