2017年6-8月雅思口语Part 1新题：robot

1. Are you interested in robots? Why?

其实我们说不上感不感兴趣，只能说看到机器人工作或是看到相关的电视都会觉得他们怎么这么cool，怎么办到的。

I cannot say that I am obsessed with robots, but every moment I see robots, I think they are so cool. Don’t you think it is a magic that they can fully understand the instructions we give to them?

2. Do you like robots to work at your home?

I am pretty content with robots working at my home doing things that I really don’t like. So, for example, things like cleaning the room or the car, well if the robot does it I am good with it. Or, for sometimes make food for me. But, then depending entirely on them, does not suits me well. Allowing the robot to cook food for me or drive car for me, is not something I will go for. Sometimes it is good, but there are times you wish to do things on your own, spend time with people you love. I think balancing between both is where the things will go.

3. What do you think robots might be able to do in people’s homes in the future?

机器人能为我们做什么?看过美剧或是平时稍微有些关注的都应该知道现在人工智能有多厉害，基本上家务啊，修理电器啊他们都不在话下，所以家里的事情他们都可能hold住，唯一现在还办不到的就是生baby了吧~

Well, you know, how awesome the artificial intelligence is! Robots are widely regarded as super helpers of human beings, doing the chores like a housewife, fixing the household appliances and doing the manual labor. In my mind, they can do anything except giving a birth to a baby.

4. Do you want to take a car which robot is the driver?

机器人当司机你会不会去坐那辆车，大多人的第一反应都是wow，cool，但是会不会有危险，万一出故障了怎么办。这个时候大家就可以说，如果科技已经足够的成熟了，可以保证我们的安全，那我当然愿意了。

Wow, it sounds awesome, but the problem of security is still one of my concern. Maybe one day, it is supported by a sufficiently advanced technology, I will try with pleasure.

5. Will robots replace human beings in the workplace completely?

我承认机器人的准确性有时候要远远要高于人类, 尤其是技术性比较强的工作，但是呢做决策，或是设计的工作依旧不能被取代，因为他们没有感觉也没有情绪。

I have to acknowledge that the accuracy of robots in the certain field is far better than mankind, especially those jobs that emphasize more on the technology and operation. But I don’t think they can totally replace men, I mean, many jobs are still not suited to robots. They have no feelings or emotions, so making decisions and designing things are not their strong suit.

6. Do you think robots might be dangerous in the future?

有些人觉得很难说，因为人工智能一天一天在发展，当有一天机器人有了思想，有了自己的意识跟社会融入的时间长多少都会影响他.

范文一：

It’s hard to judge that whether robots might be a danger. As we all know, the artificial intelligence is developing rapidly, so it is likely that robots would have true emotions like us. By then, we may worry about that.

还有人觉得不会危险，因为机器人所有的功能都是我们赋予的，是可以掌控的。

范文二：

I don’t think so. Many people think that robots are too advanced to control. But to my knowledge, the power and abilities they owned are all given by we human beings, by scientists. In a word, there is need to worry about that.

7. How do you think robots will influence society in the future?

机器人对我们的影响有好的方面，当然也有不好的方面。譬如说在就业方面，他们能减轻一些苦力的工作，同样也有可能造成失业率，再者说一些比较危险的活动机器人可以代替人类完成，例如救援工作，或是工地之类工作等等。

For opener, robots can share most of difficult and demanding jobs, like porters and sanitation workers. Meanwhile, they can replace people to do dangerous jobs, such as the work on rescue scene and construction sites.

While it still has drawbacks, it will exert bad influence on employment rate in the long term.
