George looks at the computer with big eyes.
"You can speak!"
"Yes, of course. I can do many amazing things!"
"Can you do maths homework?"
"That's easy!"

The computer looks at George's book and in two seconds all the answers are on the computer screen. George writes the answers in his book.
"Great!" says George.

George's mum arrives. She brings George a pizza.
"Here you are George! Oh good, your maths homework is finished! What a good boy!"
And she goes out of the room.

"Oh yum, I love pizza!" says the computer. An arm shoots out of the side of the computer and takes the pizza.
"Delicious!" says the computer. Another arm shoots out of the computer. And then two legs. Suddenly the computer is walking!
