问题     First, of course, it is plain that in a few years everyone will have at his elbow several times more mechanical energy than he has today.
    Second, there will be advances in biological knowledge as far-reaching as those that have been made in physics. We are only beginning to learn that we can control our biological environment as well as our physical one. Starvation has been prophesied twice to a growing world population: by Malthus about 1.8 billion and by Crookes about 1.9 billion. It was headed off the first time by taking agriculture to America and the second time by using the new fertilizers. Soon starvation will be headed off by the control of the diseases and the heredity of plants and animals—by shaping our own biological environment.
    And third, I come back to the haunting theme of automation. The most common species in the factory today is the man who works or minds a simple machine—the operator. Before long he will be as extinct as the hand-loom weaver and the dodo. The repetitive tasks of industry will be taken over by the machines, as the heavy tasks were taken over long ago; the mental tedium will go the way of physical exhaustion. Today we still distinguish, even among repetitive jobs, between the skilled and the unskilled, but in a few years to come all repetition will be unskilled. We simply waste our time if we oppose this change. [br] If the author’s predictions are realized, the demand for unskilled workers will be

选项 A、very high
B、very low
C、the same as today
D、constantly rising

答案 B

解析 最后一段倒数第二句提到“今天我们依然将工作甚至是重复性的工作划分为需要技能的和无需技能的,但是几年后所有的重复性工作都将是不需要技能的”,再结合前几题的解析可知,如果作者的预言实现,机器将会取代非技术工人,那么对非技术工人的需求将会是非常低的,所以答案为B。
