题文
I visited the nearby car factory today with my uncle, who works there. One thing I noticed was that most of the work is now done by robots. Welding (焊接), painting, testing, and many other jobs are performed by robots now. The whole dashboard (仪表板) of the car is now put into the car from above, through the windshield, by a robot. It would have taken two men to do this in the past, and it would have hurt their backs quite a bit. It got me thinking: is it a good thing that robots are replacing factory workers? On one hand, robots generally do a more accurate job than people. They aren’t likely to make many mistakes, and if something goes wrong with one car, an alarm goes off. They do exactly the same thing, every time, without fail. A human worker is never able to do exactly the same thing every time. On the other hand, robots also reduce costs for companies. Companies don’t have to pay robots wages or injury compensation (补偿) if they’re broken. If something in a robot does go wrong, it won’t have to take time off work for a year, or even forever, as could happen to a real person if he breaks his back or burn himself while welding.The obvious downside to all of this is that it increases the unemployment rate. The company will have to bring in some very talented individuals who know how to operate the robots. Unlike regular factory workers, these intelligence workers usually demand a higher pay.小题1:
We can learn from the first paragraph that _______.A．all the workers are replaced by robots now答案
小题1:B
小题2:C
小题3:A
小题4:D
小题5:D
解析
本文主要讲述了在现代社会中机器人的使用越来越普遍，详细分析了使用机器人的优点和缺点。
小题1:B 细节题。根据文章第一段后两句
One thing I noticed was that most of the work is now done by robots. Welding (焊接), painting, testing, and many other jobs are performed by robots now.可知本段主要讲述的是现在的很多工作都由计算机来完成的。故B正确。小题2:C 细节题。根据第二段4，5,6行
robots generally do a more accurate job than people. They aren’t likely to make many mistakes, and if something goes wrong with one car, an alarm goes off. They do exactly the same thing, every time, without fail.可知机器人可以机械地重复地完成一样的工作，故C正确。小题3:A 推理题。根据本句
The obvious downside to all of this is that it increases the unemployment rate. The company will have to bring in some very talented individuals who know how to operate the robots可知使用机器人以后，公司所雇佣的工人会变少，只有就增加了失业率。故这也是机器人对社会的影响中的一个缺点。故A正确。小题4:D 推断题。根据文章最后一段The company will have to bring in some very talented individuals who know how to operate the robots. Unlike regular factory workers, these intelligence workers usually demand a higher pay.可知使用机器人也有一些问题和困难，所以也有一段困难的路要走。故D正确。
小题5:D 态度意图题。在本文中作者很客观地分析了使用机器人的优点和缺点，并没有给出自己的个人观点。故D正确。
