If you are young and thinking about your career, you want to know where you can make a living. Well, [12] there’s going to be a technological replacement of a lot of knowledge-intensive jobs in the next twenty years. Particularly in the two largest sectors of the labor force with professional skills. One is teaching, and the other, healthcare. You have so many applications and software and platforms that are going to come in and provide information and service in these two fields, which means a lot of healthcare and education sectors would be radically changed and a lot of jobs will be lost. Now, where will the new jobs be found? [13] Well, the one sector of the economy that can’t be easily duplicated by even smart technologies is the caring sector, the personal care sector. That is, you can’t really get a robot to do a great massage or physically therapy. Or you can’t get the kind of personal attention you need with regard to therapy or any other personal service. They could be very high and personal services. [14] Therapists do charge a lot of money. I think there’s no limit to the amount of personal attention and personal care people would like if they could afford it. But the real question in the future is how can people afford these things if they don’t have money because they can’t get a job that pays enough. [15] That’s why I wrote this book which is about how to reorganize the economy for the future when technology brings about destructive changes to what we used to consider high income work.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.
12. What does the speaker say will happen in the next twenty years?
13. Where will young people have more chances to find jobs?
14. What does the speaker say about therapists?
15. What is the speaker’s book about?

选项 A、In the robotics industry.
B、In the information service.
C、In the personal care sector.
D、In high-end manufacturing.

答案 C

解析 浏览四个选项,根据选项中出现的robotics,information service,personal care sector,manufacturing等词可以推测,该题可能涉及行业领域。题干问的是年轻人在哪个行业更有可能找到工作。短文中提到,即使是智能科技也不能轻易替代的经济领域是护理行业,尤其是个人护理行业。故答案为C(在个人护理行业)。A项(在自动化行业)、B项(在信息服务行业)和D项(在高端制造业)原文均未提及,故排除。
