Bank of England economists predict that almost half of all UK jobs are under threat of automation. Those most at risk involve repetitive manual labour, such as factory positions. But could even the venerable profession of teaching soon have to compete against powerful electronic educators? At first glance, teaching might seem to be unaffected to replacement by robots. Teachers use a range of soft skills that machines find hard to replicate. They judge pupils needs and adapt feedback accordingly. They adapt materials to make them more attractive and effective. And they provide pastoral care: looking out for students who lag behind or disrupt the class. Nonetheless, some believe the future of education will be technological. In an interview with Business Insider magazine, futurist Thomas Frey predicts that "By 2030 the largest company on the Internet is going to be an education-based company that we havent heard of yet." He thinks that "bots"—online robot teachers—will make education so efficient that students will be able to compress an entire undergraduate degree into six months of learning. A bot learns youre your "interests" and "reference points" are, and it "figures out" how to teach you in a faster and faster way over time," according to Frey. Whether or not such incredible speeds will be reached, over the last decade there has been a huge increase in online learning platforms. Companies such as Udemy and Khan Academy produce courses that allow millions to learn at home for free at their own pace. But there are limitations. Without the face-to-face stimulation of a classroom environment, the overwhelming majority of students fail to complete online courses. How to sustain motivation to learn is one more skill that online teachers will need to master. Indeed, Frey admits there is some way to go: "Nobody has quite cracked the code for the future of education." What do teachers themselves think about this? Professor Donald Clark from Derby University in the UK thinks that we should welcome change, even though people will lose their jobs. "Artificial intelligence will destroy jobs—so why not use it for a social good such as learning?" he asked.1. How do online robot teachers teach?A. By basing the teaching speed on your preference.B.

Obviously, children dont enter the world knowing how to understand a text or make a prediction. ①___________ Here are some tips for making children great readers by habit. ②___________ The most critical moment in reading instruction is when children get something wrong. If the child continues practising the skill incorrectly, he or she will build weaker habits. Intervene(干预) with a targeted question, such as "How does this part of the text help you understand this character?" Doing so can prevent poor habits from taking root and build great ones in their place. Build habits at the moment of writing. Just like adults, children use writing to gather their thoughts about a text and communicate their ideas to others. ③___________ For example, children can first have a discussion about what theyre reading by answering a focus question in writing: "What is the author trying to teach us in this story?" ④___________ By doing this, you can get a better understanding of wha。
