Reading is a very good hobby for all the students. You can know much about the world with the help of all kinds of books. I’m sure everyone has a favorite subject. For example, some are interested in animals, some in history, and some are interested in literature. Mine is science. I like it because it's fun and educational.

My favorite novel is Around the World in Eighty Days. It was written by Jules Verne, a French writer. Jules Verne was regarded as father of Modern Science Fiction because he devoted (奉献) himself to literature and wrote several well-known scientific romances.

The exciting story of Around the World in Eighty Days tells us about an English gentleman whose name is Mr. Phileas Fogg, he travels around the world in eighty days. From the story, we can see the writer’s love for the sea, traveling and adventure (冒险). In fact, they played an important role in his life. Thanks to the writer’s imagination, language skills and scientific and geographical knowledge, we can feel as if we were there when we read the story.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been in the news a lot lately. And according to a recent report from the McKinsey Global Institute, about half of today’s work activities could be automated(自动化的) by 2055. Could “teaching” be on that list?

The teacher in the classroom is a human model. When a human teacher is able to show the advantages of learning, learners are more likely to be inspired to work harder and make progress. Even AI with advance technology can’t do this.

So, the chances are that your job is safe for the near future. But it is going to change, and robots will join us quite soon, as teaching assistants.

Recently, a Georgia Tech professor has used an AI teaching assistant in his classroom, which allows him to more effectively manage over 400 students. His AI teaching assistant helps him answer more routine questions, freeing him to deal with some complex problems which are difficult to solve from students.

AI is also being used in South Korea and Japan to help with language learning. Students can go through any variety of conversational practices, and AI can correct mistakes in usage and pronunciation. In fact, research shows that these programs can help solve problems like shyness and frustration(挫败) that can appear when children practice repetitively with a teacher. After all, a robot will not get tired or annoyed no matter how many mistakes a child makes.

This will be the future of AI in the classroom. Should you start packing up your desk? Absolutely not. The bottom line is that these technologies work best when paired with an active human teacher. But it certainly could make your job easier and more efficient.
