Human resources can be efficiently used by per- forming tasks which demand human skills like critical thinking and problem solving.Robots can be used for jobs like moving and lifting heavy things.

Julia Collins is the company's co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO).Her busi- ness can spend more money on better food prod- ucts because it does not have to pay the robots. Zume is using robots to make pizza. Charity Suzuki has bought the robot-made pizza.She likes its taste."It's delicious.It's al- ways hot and fresh when it comes.I mean it's great that they're making it,but I can't tell the difference that it's made by a robot versus a hu- man.” Other companies say they are developing robots so people can get higher quality food fas- ter.But what about the jobs the robots are tak- ing from humans? Ken Goldberg is a professor at the Univer- sity of California in Berkeley.He also directs the school's automation laboratory.Goldberg says researchers have been working with robots for 50 years.He says that,while there has UNIT 1 SCIENCE FICTION been progress,the jobs are not going to disap- pear right away.“I want to reassure(使放心) 间 restaurant workers that the skills that they have are still going to be of value,"Goldberg says. 纠错空间 "We're going to get rid of boring,repeti- tive,dangerous jobs and we're going to free up people to do things that have higher value.

Ⅱ.阅读填句 年年年里年年年gt年4年年年年年■4 The ability to think creatively is not a gift everyone possesses naturally,but it can be de- veloped as a skill.Here are some tips to help you develop creative and critical thinking abili- ties. 英语·选择性必修第四册 Step outside your comfort zone. Stepping outside your comfort zone is an easy way to expand your creative and critical 纠错空间 thinking skills.This means reading a book or an article that is completely unrelated to any previ- ous studies,or even having a difficult conversa- tion with someone you're close to.1 We all grow from discomfort. Stay healthy. Your mind is in the best shape when your body is.Coupling exercise with a healthy diet can clear the mind and allow for creativity.2 Some people are easily distracted by a messy of- fice or a dark room.Most people are the most awake when they are in clean,healthy,and or- ganised environments. 3 This is a common technique used by journa- 方法总结lists and writers suffering from writer's block.It'san easy tool to get the creative juices flowing.Open up a laptop,or grab a notebook and a pen,and just start writing.Just let your mind take you wherever it wants to go.4 Take a breather. Everyone may reach points where they get stuck on an idea and can't get past it.Don't let this discourage you,and don't blame yourself. That sort of thinking will make you disheartened and distracted,which will only make you even more frustrated.5 Go outside for some fresh air, take a walk,eat a meal,or call a friend.Dis- traction,in moderation,can be very rewarding. A.Write freely. B.Keep an open mind. C.Instead,take a short break. D.Keep your spirits high at work and even dur- ing the holidays. E.This is a great way to explore your thoughts and expand your creativity. 课时作业乡 F.Your work environment can also greatly af- fect the way the brain functions. G.Anything making you a bit uncomfortable proba- bly benefits you more than it harms you.
