It's easy to believe that robots are stealing jobs from human workers and badly affect the job market; after all, you’ve likely heard that they are tracking and moving packages without the use of human hands.

But there's no need to worry about a robot takeover just yet, says a new study from BYU sociology professor Eric Dahlin. Dahlin's research found that robots aren't replacing humans at the ate most people think, but people are likely to greatly exaggerate (夸大) the rate of robot takeover.

To understand the relationship between job loss and robots, Dahlin surveyed nearly 2,000 people about their views on jobs being, replaced by robots. They were first asked to guess what is the percentage of employees whose employers(雇主) have replaced jobs with robots. They were then asked whether their employers have ever replaced their jobs with robots.

The study found that only 14% of workers say they've seen their job replaced by a robot. But those who have experienced job displacement due to a robot overstate the effect of robots taking jobs from humans by about three times.

“Our understanding of robots taking over jobs is greatly exaggerated, ”says Dahlin. Those who haven't lost jobs overstate it by about double, and those who have lost jobs overstate it by about three times. Eye-catching headlines saying a bad future of employment have likely overblown the situation of robots taking over jobs.

The finding fits early studies, which suggest that robots aren't replacing workers. Rather, workplaces, where both employees and robots are working together, deliver more value in a way, “An everyday example is an autonomous machine at your local department store, "says Dahlin. “This robot cleans the floors while employees clean under shelves or other difficult-to-reach places. ”

8. How did Eric Dahlin carry out his research?

A. By asking people questions.     B. By comparing early studies.

C. By interviewing employers.     D. By studying new businesses.

9. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?

A. Bad effects of technology.      B. A fall in laid-off workers.

C. Benefits of using robots.      D. The finding of the study.

10. What might deepen people's worry about robot takeover according to the text?

A. Low pay.   B. News reports.   C. Physical health.  D. Fewer workplaces.

11. Which statement will Eric Dahlin probably agree with?

A. Robots can work as human partners.  B. Job markets will be affected seriously.

C. All human workers will be replaced.  D. Work experience matters too much.

D

Seismometer(地震仪)stations not only sense ground shaking due to earthquakes but alsc signals at the surface of our planet, such as storms and—as the researchers discovered—also floods. For this research, scientists turned an earthquake seismometer station near the town of Ahrweiler in Germany into a flood tracking tool. Using seismological information from the time of the event, they can tell people about the disaster in a timely way.

As the town of Ahrweiler took the full force of a flood, scientists found the seismometer exactly showed the track of the flood for one hour. By. comparing mathematical models, the researchers were able to estimate(估算)the speed with which the flood moved. In fact, this was the only systematic source of measurable information about how the flood developed because the three present water level stations in the town were out of service early.

As the research shows, this method can provide information that is valuable to track flood for warning and rescue activities. “If the data from that station is available(可用的)and as our research now shows, real time information on the magnitude and speed of the flood will be available as well, ”says Dr Michael Dietze at the University of Gottingen. “As 10% of Europe's surface area is likely to suffer from rapid flooding by rivers, we may want to start thinking about new ways of flood early warning. The present network of water level stations is not enough to be fully prepared for future events, ”Dietze adds.

Dietze and his team are working on a plan to discover further areas at risk of flooding and provide them with low cost “watch tower” scismometer pairs—an effort to cut the losses caused by future floods. Dietze says, “The deadly July flood that hit the Ahrweiler in Germany in July 2021 gave a warning to the locals, the government, emergency services and scientists—how much we need to learn to improve the present flood warning systems. ”

12. What can be known about Ahrweiler?

A. It saw an earthquake.      B. It's turned into a station.

C. It's hard hit by a flood       D. It praised these scientists.

13. What do the researchers expect of the seismometer?

A. It'll speed up water supply.     B. It'll stop rapid flooding.

C. It'll be a tool for a family.     D. It'll provide early warning.

14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. People will cut the cost of public services.

B. Efforts should be put into flood control.

C. The government must save its spending.

D. The locals have made a plan of action.

15. Where is this text most likely from?

A. A health report.  B. A guidebook.   C. A short story.    D. A science magazine.

阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Last fall, I came up with a good idea to tell my friend Melanie that she and I should enter a backcountry ski mountaineering race. The mountain is 40 miles from Crested Butte to Aspen, Colorado, and it required us to race as a team. Neither of us had ever done a ski race, but we'd always been good partners on mountain bikes, so I thought we'd be well-matched in the ski race, too,

However, on our first long training day together, Melanie dropped me again and again. As she disappeared out of sight on our last climb, I complained to myself, “Why had I come up with this stupid idea? Why wasn't she waiting?”When I finally caught up, Melanie asked, “Are you OK?” I opened my mouth to respond and—oh, no—tears began running down my face. I felt sad and embarrassed(尴尬的). Crying was a behavior I connected with myself as a beginner who did most often in the years when I was learning to mountain bike. Seeing this, Melanie said with motherly concern, “I think you need to have a rest and eat something. ”

She was right. Rest and sugar improved my mood. Finally, we began going down the mountain together and we joked about my tears. In the days that followed, we kept training hard for the race day.

Despite the difficult start to our training, on race day, Melanie and I proved to be a good pair. The race began at midnight, and for six hours we schussed(直线滑降)together as a team through the darkness. But as the sun began to rise, we found ourselves pushing as hard as we could to make it to Star Pass, the high point of the race, by the important 7 am.

Unluckily, we lost the race because we were 2 minutes late.

第一节

One possible version:

Dear fellow students,

Due to the rapid development of society, our environment is becoming worse and worse. As the world warms, Arctic glaciers are melting, which threatens the lives of polar bears. At the same time, air pollution causes people to suffer from various diseases.

It is crucial for everyone to take an active action to protect our environment. A beautiful environment can be presented through our low-carbon travel, like walking or riding to school instead of driving. Garbage sorting and recycling should also be a part of our daily life.

Let us work hand in hand to build a better environment.

Yours,

Li Hua

第二节

One possible version:

A painful block formed in my throat（喉咙）. My tears welled up， and I couldn't hold them back this time. I let myself have a good cry on the mountain. Melanie comforted, "For me, tears represent that discomfort of pushing my limits constantly instead of losing a race. "Hugging tightly with me, she added, "Tears are the result of our always taking on big challenges, putting ourselves out there, being open to failure. We should fail more often. These are the times we grow. "

After a few minutes, I felt less sad. Although the race had always been a big and ambitious goal, we had tried our best and pushed ourselves farther than we'd ever gone on skis. That was something to be proud of. It was time to get off the mountain. By the time we began skiing back down the way we came, my eyes were dry, and I felt a surprising sense of peace. Neither of us had ever done a ski race, but we were the best pair in the race.
