[2026 浙江舟山期中] Students pass their schoolwork through different hands, from their group leaders to the class representative（课代表）, and finally to the teacher. It might not sound too difficult, but sometimes it can go wrong and takes a lot of time.
To deal with this problem, Zhang Xirui from Shenzhen Gezhi Academy in Guangdong came up with a useful tool—a smart homework collection robot. This won him first prize in the 20th Guangdong Provincial Children’s Invention Awards.
The robot uses radio frequency identification（RFID 射频识别）technology—a reader and a special tag（标签）that can share information without touching each other. This way, it can help find and know what it is looking for. Each student’s notebook has a special RFID tag with his or her name and the subject. Students only need to place their notebooks on the robot, and the machine “sees” the notebook, reads its tag and
takes the name out of the name list. “Teachers can check who hasn’t handed in homework by connecting their phones with the robot through Wi-Fi,” the 13-year-old boy explained to Shenzhen Satellite TV.
▲ Now, he’s planning to develop a third-generation and hopes to use ultra-high-frequency（超高频）radio technology to read lots of RFID tags from far away. That means if you stick a special tag on your notebook, the robot can read the information from a thick stack（堆）of notebooks at once. Zhang believes this is the key to artificial intelligence which can make life easier for us.
Zhang dreams of becoming a scientist when he grows up. “I have tried making model airplanes and other scientific and creative projects. Inventing has brought me joy and happiness,” he says.
