The concept of man versus machine is at least as old as the industrial revolution, but this phenomenon tends to be most acutely felt during economic downturns and slow recoveries. Since technology has such a big【C1】______for eating up human jobs, this phenomenon will continue to restructure our economy in ways we can’t immediately foresee.
When there is exponential(指数的) 【C2】______in the price and performance of technology, jobs that were once thought to be【C3】______from automation suddenly become threatened. This is a powerful argument, and a scary one. And yet, John Hagel, author of The Power of Pull and other books, says the argument misses the reason why these jobs are so vulnerable to technology in the first place.
Hagel says we have designed jobs in the U. S. that tend to be tightly scripted and highly【C4】______ones that leave no room for individual initiative or creativity. In short, these are the types of jobs that machines can【C5】______much better than human beings. That is how we have put a giant【C6】______sign on the backs of American workers.
It’s time to【C7】______the formula for how work is conducted, since we are still relying on a very 20th century【C8】______of work, Hagel says. In our【C9】______changing economy, we more than ever need people in the workplace who can take initiative and exercise their imagination to respond to【C10】______events. That’s not something machines are good at. They are designed to perform very predictable activities.
A)appetite I)notion
B)calculate J)perform
C)competition K)rapidly
D)distinct L)reinvent
E)exceedingly M)standardized
F)immune N)target
G)improvement O)unexpected
H)norm [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
A
解析
空格位于形容词big之后,应填入名词。根据后面的eating up human jobs可知,技术的进步导致机器大量地取代了人力,故空格处应填入appetite,a big appetite意为“胃口大”,与eating up相对应,与文意相符。
