Neolix is a Chinese company. The company makes special vans. These vans do not have a driver. Neolix uses these vans during the coronavirus. The vans clean streets. They deliver food and medicine to hospitals.

KFC is a US fast food company. Neolix and KFC make a new business. Neolix’s vans sell food.

The vans drive along the streets. People use an app in their phones. They choose some food. They scan a code. They pay for the food in the app. The van’s door opens. People take the food and they close the door. It is very quick and easy.

People do not like cars without a driver in the past. The situation is changing now. People see that the vans are helpful. They make people’s lives safer and easier.

Difficult words: van (a type of a car that people use to transport things), deliver (to take something and bring it to someone to another place), app (a computer program in a phone or a computer).
