peter andrew, director of workplace strategy for cbre asia pacific.a growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.the report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from asia pacific, europe and north america. it shows that in the us technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.but the report states: “losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs just changing what people do.” growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the

experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. the optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create，” according to aaron smith, the reports coauthor.“technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. although there

inventor and futurist with some interesting ideas about how humans will soon be able to live much longer than the average 78 years they do now. if kurzweil is right, this is a question well have to ask ourselves in the near future.the first challenge is how to stop our bodies from getting old and dying. kurzweil doesnt see this as a problem. with gene (基因) technology, well soon be able to turn off genes that cause aging and disease. this technology is getting cheaper and advancing at an incredible (难以置信的) rate. kurzweil believes that from every year after 2023, well be adding more than a year to the average life expectancy (寿命). he also expects that within the next 20 years, we will have nanobots in our blood. these tiny robots will keep our bodies healthy and free from diseases by finding damaged cells and destroying them.of course, if were all going to live longer, then there are going to be more of us on this already overcrowded earth. many people think there are likely to be problems with resources such as food and energy. kurzweil doesnt agree. he says that the same technologies used to increase our life expectancy will also be used to help with food production and energy needs. for example, he says, sunlight can potentially give us 10,000 times more energy than we now use. we just need to develop the technology to get it and make it cheaper. there are also new technologies that can recycle water extremely cheaply. this means that dirty water can be made clean again at a very low cost.but what are we going to do with all this extra time? wont we all get bored? again, kurzweil says no. for a start, we wont be stuck in old bodies. well stay young for years. this means well be able to experiment with many more things than we can now. well also see huge developments in virtual (虚拟的) reality technology that will keep us entertained for years.the future, according to ray kurzweil, looks good, and we might just be around to see it.语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕人类寿命被延长进行了探讨。12according to kurzweil, the average life expectancy will increase greatly because of _.amedical advancesbcheaper technologycricher natural resourcesdimproved living
