Will Robots Put Us All on the Unemployment Line?

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin is blamed for saying he’s “not worried at all” about robots displacing American workers. Yet he’s spot on: Robots will soon launch a productivity boom, leading to improved economic growth, higher wages and a higher standard of living. Just what America needs after a decade dragging along at 2 percent growth.

Scaremongers (危言耸听者) who warn that robots steal jobs are failing to predict the jobs of the future. A hotel worker who makes room-service deliveries today may instead be monitoring or repairing delivery robots. Not to mention the new jobs in every field that will come with a booming economy, predict PricewaterhouseCoopers consultants. Robots are our friends.

And there’s no going back^ contrary to the view of Bill Gates. The tech billionaire wants to put the brakes on the next innovation boom. He’s suggesting a heavy tax to punish robots in the workplace. Complete foolishness.

Economists have been complaining about the poor world economy, declaring what’s needed is a technological breakthrough. Well, here it is — assuming politicians don’t try to kill it.

Robotics has already taken hold in manufacturing, especially the auto industry. These machines are so efficient (高效的) that US factories are producing more with fewer workers on the assembly (装配) line. That gain in productivity translates into higher wages for the remaining factory workers and lower prices for consumers.

If President Trump succeeds in bringing auto jobs back to the United States, they won’t be the same routine, repeated tasks that assembly line workers had in the past. These new jobs will require knowledge of computer-aided design and other complex engineering issues.

The same goes for the service field, like supermarket and warehousing. A surprising 94 percent of CEOs using robots say they’ve increased productivity. The end result: fewer jobs for unskilled workers, though in all possibility more jobs overall as the economy grows, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers. Message to politicians: Focus on workplace readiness. It beats trying to block technological progress—a vain attempt to protect yesterday’s jobs.

The economy booms when businesses, not politicians, call the shots on technology. Welcoming robots will create more goods and services, a bigger pie for all to share. Skills training will help everyone get a piece of the pie.

1.Who may agree that robots won’t put us all on the unemployment line?

A. Steven Mnuchin. B. Scaremongers.

C. Bill Gates. D. Politicians.

2.Why are robots widely used in manufacturing?

A. They are productive. B. They are our friends.

C. Workers will earn more money. D. Workers can’t do skilled tasks.

3.What does PricewaterhouseCooper indicate?

A. More workers will lose their jobs.

B. Everybody should be retrained to gain new skills.

C. More jobs will be created due to the growth of economy.

D. High productivity leads to higher wages for all people.

4.What’s the author’s attitude towards the application of robots?

A. Supportive. B. Respectful.

C. Doubtful. D. Negative.

1.What we consider polite at home isn't always accepted outside our borders.Don't be regarded rude or disrespectful on your travels.

Gift giving should be a happy,positive experience.2.Giving sharp,pointy objects as gifts is considered unlucky.Be careful when presenting flowers to a friend or a business partner in Russia.Yellow blooms suggest cheat or a relationship breakup.3.Writing cards or notes while visiting South Korea,be mindful of your pen's ink color. Writing a person's name in red ink traditionally suggests that the person has passed away.

4.If you are invited to someone's home for a meal,it's recommended that you arrive 10 to 15 minutes later than the requested time.When having a meal in Egypt,don't use the salt shaker(调味瓶)which means that you find the meal terrible.Japan is a very polite nation,and their politeness extends to the mealtime use of chopsticks. According to Japanese custom,it's considered ill-mannered to point or play with chopsticks.5.Using the end that touches your mouth is extremely offensive(冒犯的),not to mention the fact that it's unhygienic(不卫生的).

When the telephone rings late at night, most women guess it must be one of only four or five people calling. A sister?Maybe. An emergency? Possibly. A mother? Probably not at that time of night. Much more probably it is a close female friend calling to tell you that she is heartbroken because she has split up with her boyfriend again or perhaps simply that a good movie has just started on TV.

At a time when families are spread far and wide and marriages often end in divorce, friendships are becoming more and more important. Erika, a 32-year-old lawyer, is strengthened by her ten-year friendship with her married friend Jane. “I was very sick one night, so I called Jane at about 3:00 a.m. to talk about it,” she says. “She was very supportive and even came over to take me to the doctor’s.”

As American TV shows like Friends have become more popular, many of us are beginning to see the value of such friendships. TV shows like this tell us that our romantic relationships may not last, but we need to keep in touch with our close friends if we want to survive.

With Erika’s family 200 miles away, it is Jane who keeps a spare set of keys to Erika’s apartment and waters her plants whenever she is away. “Having Jane around gives me a certain amount of freedom. It is not the kind of thing that you could ask anyone to do, but she knows I would do the same for her.” Jane, who may move to a different city soon, is worried about leaving such a support system of friends. “My friends have more to do with my life than my parents and, therefore, I don’t have to spend a lot of time explaining things to them. Friends are more up to date with what is happening.”
