student，I did a lot of travelling abroad.That was because a professor 1 me to do so.She said，“Now it is time for you to travel around the world， 2 your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun！”I agreed with her.Since I started to work for a 3 company，however，I have done most of my travelling through the Internet.By using the Internet，I have seen the 4 of many cities on my computer screen.And I have really made business 5 ，too.With the help of the Internet，I have also got information about food in different countries.Therefore，I was beginning to feel that actual trips were 6 necessary when I happened to read a famous chef's(厨师) comment on the Internet.He said，“It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country，because we enjoy food and the 7 around us at the same time.So why don't you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian 8 ？”Those words reminded me of my professor's advice.As information technology 9 ，you might be able to do without making some

Internet.It is not surprising to see a group of people 12 not with each other but into their microphones.It seems as if such people are surrounded by an invisible wall.They seem to be losing out on a good chance to 13 and talk with other people.I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology.We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily 14 more

both in homes and in other areas，they could improve the living standards of people.Many people burn their energy on their day­to­day tasks like cooking，cleaning after work，etc.When robots can complete such jobs，people can spend more time with their family and friends.Experts say that many major problems in the modern world are caused by miscommunication.When people have more time，they can talk freely to solve such issues and eventually create a happy society.Robots can be used on certain jobs to avoid accidents caused by careless behavior of some people.When robots are used on such work，it does not risk any human life due to accidents at the workplace.Human resources can be efficiently used by performing tasks which demand human skills like critical thinking and problem solving.Robots can be used on low­end jobs like moving heavy things and heavy weight lifting.While some people talk about how robots can be useful to humans，others voice their concerns about reduction in human value and the creation of a lazy society due to heavy dependency on robots.When robots become cheaper to produce，employers may prefer to use more robots than humans.As the technology constantly improves the abilities of robots，it could weaken the value of humans.Many people may rely on robots heavily.Some may even develop the habit of using robots on tasks that they can easily do.This could create a lazy society.As an aging society，Japan sees it as a must to build robots that take care of elderly people at their homes，because without them，the nation's health care system can't cope.There will simply be too many elderly people to care for as the nation faces a decreasing birth rate，an aging population，and the loosening of family ties.However，many of Japan's elderly people would prefer human helpers rather than robots.Above all，Japan wants，if not“needs”，its dreams of robots in the home to come true because its immigration(移民) policy is anti­immigration.In conclusion，robots can be used on anything that can eventually improve humans' living standards but we can't depend on them too much.Robots can be used to help humans live in harmony and form a happy society.1According to the first paragraph，when robots can be used in homes， Apeople will spend more time on their workBthere will be more misunderstandings between humansCpeople's living standards will be improvedDpeople may communicate more with robots than human beings2Compared with humans，robots are better at .Aproblem solvingBcommunicating with othersCcritical thinkingDworking safely3Some people worry that with more robots being used Apeople will be unwilling to work hardBhuman resources won't be needed at the workplaceCit will be harder to improve the abilities of robotsDrobots will be beyond our control4What

to Japan.DMost Japanese citizens are against robots in the home.一、单词拼写1.bonus2.integrity3.dignity4.salary5.suspend二、完形填空1.D根据“I did a lot of travelling
