Ill give brainliest :) "Another study that combines origami and robotics is led by Daniela Rus, head of the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) at MIT. Her team is focused on designing robots that can be constructed and programmed more quickly and easily--and then used by professionals and amateurs alike. Where does origami fit in? The machines are delivered by 2-D printers and would be preprogrammed to fold themselves into 3-D shapes that can be manipulated and controlled using a smartphone or other device."

Explanation:

invention of the washing machine

in the past, people used sticks and stones or scrub boards to clean their clothing. as it was sweaty, backbreaking work, we owe a world of to james king because he created the model for the modern washing machine in 1851. the most important issue was that this machine cleaned clothes while a person cranked the handle. doing this made people who used it develop strong muscles in their arms. later, in 1908, alva j. fisher created an electric washing machine named thor. this one was not the first automatic washing machine. however, it was one of the most popular models at the time.

in the quotation from passage, connie willis states that literature is a way for authors from the past to communicate with readers of today. we can read their stories, books, and other texts to learn lessons about life. willis refers to these lessons as messages “from beyond the grave.” willis has a favorable viewpoint about the timelessness of literature.
