Ⅱ.阅读理解 A Oh my God, the robots are taking over! We're doomed! Doomed! Now that I've gotten that out of my system, it's become clear that while we may or may not be doomed, the robots are taking over. The latest example is the government's new guidelines for selfdriving cars. Tesla, Google and Uber are already testing driverless cars in cities across America. Uber chief executive Travis Kalanick is among those predicting that by 2021, selfdriving cars will play abig part in urban settings. Nearly 40,000 people died last year in this nation in automobilerelated accidents, and we believes driverless cars can save tens of thousands of lives annually. Makes sense. Robot drivers are less likely to get drunk, drive without a license, text while driving or feel agitated at the scene of apileup. On the other hand, Iwonder how these highly sensitive cars will react, with walkers constantly dashing into the street. Will they jam on the brakes every 10 seconds? But there's abigger picture. Not only are robots replacing humans behind the wheel, but behind the work desk, in warehouses, senior homes, you name it. Robots aren't just taking over in the workplace. 1
