ROBOTS
Would you like a robot in your house? It is now generally accepted that in the future robots will take over many our tasks especially jobs of a repetitive nature But it’s doubtful if robots will ever be able to do any of the more creative types of work - or indeed if people would want them to In the home, robots would probably be used to
do the cleaning table-laying scrubbing and washing up, but it’s considered unlikely so far that they’ll be used to
do the cooking - at least not in the near future Robots in the home might not be creative enough to do the cooking, plan the meals, and so on They would be used as slaves, thereby freeing people to do more of the things they wants
41 It is thought that robots will be able to do the same jobs every day
42 It is certain that robots will be able to help us with creative tasks
43 In the near future, robots will be used to do things such as cooking
44 Robots will help us do some of the housework such as washing dishes
45 Robots would be able to do more than people want
