This 12-year-old Girl Built a Robot to Find Plastics in the Ocean

Anna Du was walking along the beach when she noticed plastics there. She reached down to pick them up, and quickly realized there were many more tiny pieces than she could deal with. It seemed impossible to clean them all up.

Du, 12 years old at the time, tried to solve the problem like any good scientist—first, by doing a little research. That’s how she learned that 8 million tons of plastics end up in the oceans every year.

Then she got to work building something that could help solve the problem; a remote-operated vehicle(遥控潜水器), or ROV. Her ROV can move through water and find plastics on the ocean floor.

The actually cool part of Du’s ROV is the detection(探测) system. She uses a camera along with three different kinds of light to find the plastics. She also uses visible(可见的) light to find unnatural colors that might make the plastics stand out.

“She has a very good engineering sense to break down a problem like this and then go after it,” says engineer Casey Machado. “It sounds simple, but it’s a level of thinking that’s really amazing. ”

Du started attending public events and workshops at a university when she was five years old, and so she picked up the engineering skills necessary to build her ROV. She says actually getting her ROV to move through water well was not easy. She failed many times, but she never gave up trying and testing.

When asked about future plans, she mentions wanting to address the effects of climate(气候) change. “I think there are a lot of problems that could be solved with new inventions,” says Du.

Du thanks her parents, who for years have taken her to student outreach activities, for supporting her interest in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). She says she has been able to meet students and scientists there.

“I know I want to be an engineer because I like building things to help solve world problems,” says Du. “But I’m not sure what kind of engineer I want to be yet.”

34．What did Anna Du notice while walking along the beach?

35．How old was Du when she did a little research to solve the problem?

36．What can Du’s ROV do?

37．Why does Du want to be an engineer in the future?

38．What made Du succeed in building her ROV?

I once had a hard time making a living in France. It was one night three years ago, I felt a need to meet people so I went to the cinema. Outside the cinema was a woman with long dirty gray hair asking for money. I reached for my wallet but then something made me stop and enter into a conversation with her. I said, “Look, all the women going to the cinema here are seeing a film that can change your life. I’d rather buy you a ticket than give you money.”

She thought for a moment and then came in with me. She hid behind me because, she said, the people running the theater didn’t like her. I got her a ticket and she sat next to me. There were about 80 women there. I noticed some of them were turning around and looking at me with expressions of surprise.

I asked the poor woman to come the following night to an event where there would be many representatives(代表) of different kinds of social services. I thought they could be of some help to her. She did come and I was able to direct her to an agency that helped women in her situation. At that time, a woman came toward me and said, “Are you the person who bought a ticket for the woman outside the theater asking for money?” When I said yes, she said, “I want you to come to the community center where I work. I want the other people there to meet you.”

This was the beginning of a deep friendship and workmate relationship. I now have a great job and have more work than I’ve ever had in my 20 years in France. And the woman I took to the cinema that night? I learned that she was not homeless and that she was a secretary.

A friend’s grandfather came to America from East Europe. After arriving at Ellis Island, he went into a cafeteria ( 自助餐厅 ) in Lower Manhattan to get something to eat. He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order.

Of course nobody did. Finally, a woman with a tray ( 餐盘 ) full of food sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria worked.

“Start out at that end,” she said, “Just go along the line and pick out what you want. At the other end they’ll tell you how much you have to pay.”

“I soon learned that’s how everything works in America.” The grandfather told a friend, “Life’s a cafeteria. You can get anything you want as long as you are ready to pay the price. You can even get success. But you’ll never get it if you wait for someone to bring it to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.”
