听力原文: We are now living in a world in which robots are taking over much of the work.Robots make our cars, fly our planes and work out wages.
But these robots are not mechanical men and women.They do not look like us.They are machines specially built to do some of the things that human beings can.
Although they may not look like us,robots need some human features in order to be able to do human work.First of all they need some kind of brain.Their "brain" is a computer,which has a memory to human member instructions and ability to control other equipment.Another essential feature of many robots is an arm that can do the kind of things that human beings can with their arms.One-armed robots are now coming into widespread use in industry.They are being used,for example,on car assembly lines.
The great advantage of robots over human workers is that they can work non-stop for long periods. They never get tired,and always work with the same accuracy.They can also work in conditions that humans could not bear.Last but not least,as more robots are built,their cost will come down.
Although robots are rapidly taking over many jobs in industry, they seem a long way from taking over in the home. The problem is that it would take a very complex and costly robot to perform. half the tasks involved in housework.
According to the speaker,what can the present-day robots do?
A.Drive cars.
B.Fly planes.
C.Pay wages.
D.Repair machines.

听力原文:M: Who do you think will make better service people?
W: Should be those people who appear friendly in a job interview.
M: Not necessarily, just as it's false to think that talkative people make better sales representatives than quieter, more thoughtful people.
W: But being friendly is very important to being a better service man.
M: You know in an employment interview, many people can be whomever they think you want for the job. Even if you've hired many, many people, you can be fooled. A true service personality is not something you can directly observe or quickly detect.

But people in both jobs will likely have distinct characteristics that make them ideally suited for one or the other position.
W: Then what kind of personality will be suited to a particular job?
M: Well, first you need to understand what the job truly requires.
W: How do you do that?
M: You analyze the job. Determine the fundamental skills it takes to perform. it well.
W: What are some of these skills?
M: Such skills include: analytic, creative, computational, interpersonal, project management, conflict resolution, negotiating, and time management.

M: Yes. If you assign yourself the task, you can probably identify many of the true skills that lie within a particular job.

Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is the degree of workers' contribution an important, factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about.
To what extent more money led to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.
Which of these is not a possible factor leading to greater productivity?
A.To make jobs more varied.
B.To give the worker freedom to do his job in his own way.
C.Degree of work contribution.
D.Demands for longer working hours.
