Sorry if your answer was no, because it will be common in the near future, according to researchers from Oxford. A third of British jobs are at high risk of being replaced by robots in the next 20 years, the research by Deloitte, the Oxford Martin School and the University of Oxford found. Wired magazine went further. It may be hard to believe, but before the end of this century, 70 percent of todays occupations will be replaced by automation(自动化技术), said the magazine in 2012. Of course, people being replaced by robots is not recent news. Robots have been taking over labor work in factories and on farms for some time, lifting heavy boxes and picking fruit and vegetables. Next, cleaning chores in offices and schools will be taken over by late-night robots, starting with easy-to-do floors and windows and eventually moving to toilets, Wired predicted. But thats just the beginning. Even white-collar jobs are not safe. Any job dealing with sales, services or lots of paperwork could be taken over by robots in the future. For example, in the UK, library assistants have decreased by 48 percent since 2001, sales-related jobs have fallen by 40 percent, and travel agents by 44 percent, the Daily Mail reported. But that doesnt mean that human beings will have nothing to do in the future. Instead, we need to update our skills. Digital(数字化的) know-how, management and creativity will be in greater demand in the future, said British consulting company Deloitte.96. The underlined sentence means .A. a third of British jobs are dangerousB. a third of British jobs are of high profitC. British people may lose a third of their jobsD. British people may replace a third of robots jobs97. From the passage, we know late-night robots are mainly made to do .A. factory and farm jobsB. cleaning jobsC. difficult jobsD. white-collar jobs98. In the UK, sales-related jobs have decreased by since 2010.A. 70%B. 48%C. 44%D. 40%99. The best title for this passage is .A. Robots to Take ChargeB. Robots to Be SmarterC. Robots to Do Hard JobsD. Robots to Do PaperworkB Science fiction writers create imaginary worlds. The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science. So its important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. For example, if youre writing about human living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body. Then you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. And you have to follow them. If humans are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character cant drown in a swimming pool in Chapter 3. The issue here is maintaining your readers trust. That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw in someone breathing underwater in the 6th chapter, you will pull the readers out of their imagination. The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway. Part of your preparation work for the novel is to map out its worlds in great detail. You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, and how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react to things. You dont have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter. But you have to let readers know enough to understand whats going on. This also allows you to work out logical problems and contradictions before you start writing. When you are writing, remember to make it feel real. You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste what its like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like theyre actually there.100. Whats the relationship between actual science and science fiction?A. Science fiction promotes the development of actual science.B. Science fiction often reflects the development of actual science.C. Actual science limits the imagination described in science fiction.D. Actual science provides basic principles for science fiction.101. The second paragraph is mainly developed by .A. making comparisonsB. giving examplesC. following the time orderD. analyzing causes102. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. It is necessary to do some scientific experiments before writing science fiction.B. It is more difficult to write science fiction than ordinary detective novels.C. Readers of science fiction actually pretend the writers rules are true.D. It is great to leave some contradictions in your science fiction.103. The target(目标) readers of the passage are .A. young scientistsB. science fiction writersC. college studentsD. professional journalists104. The passage is mainly about .A. how to do scientific researchB. how to raise interest in scienceC. what to expect from science fictionD. how to write science fictionC Its 2035. You have a job, a family, and youre about 40 years old. Welcome to your future life. Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror, “Turn red,” you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronic are rearranged(重新设置) in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe that you are 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. Youre not even middle-aged. As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour cereal(谷类) breakfast into a bowl, you hear: “To lose weight, you shouldnt eat that,” from your shoes. They read the tiny ele
