高考英語作文：機(jī)器人的影響

　　Intelligent machines such as robots are increasingly being used.They can do many things that used to be done by human.Discuss the benefits and dangers.

　　For centuriespeople have fantasized that someday machines could have intelligence like mankind and work as faithful servants.Today this dream has come true in many fields thanks to rapid development in artificial intelligence research.Wonderful as this seemsmachines have problems.

　　To begin withpeople lose jobs when machines take their placesespecially in the mass production industry such as automobile business.In factories of the famous car company Fordalmost every step of car making is done by giant robots that work faster with higher reliability and precision than human labor.Because of the adoption of robotsthousands of workers are put out of their old jobs and forced to make changes in their work.Even such changes create job opportunities because robots need people to take care of and operatethe number of new jobs is much smaller than that of lostthus causing huge pressure on the labor market and government.

　　People become less smart because of the wide use of machines in their life.Nowadays people need to use their brain less than they did in the past.Everything is programmed and the only thing we need to do is to push a button or throw on a switch.This has given us great convenience but made us lazier and less smart.Everyone has the awkward moment troubling with the spelling of a simple word when writing with a pen.But with a computerit will automatically proofread the spelling and grammar of your writing.So people become less concerned with learning things right.This is not a progress but a regress of our intelligence and culture.

　　But machines have many benefits that nobody can deny such as great work efficiency and low cost of mass production.The workload that could take months to finish by manual labor could be done flawlessly by robots in minutes.We have more purchasing power to enjoy a wider variety of goods and services because of the reduction of production costs with factories using machines.Other benefits include that machines could do dangerous jobs for people in high risk businesses like mining and construction.

　　To concludemachines have many merits that make our life easier and more convenientbut they have caused many problems such as undercutting our job opportunities and overdependence on machines.

　　【參考譯文】

　　機(jī)器人等智能機(jī)器正越來越多地被使用，他們可以做許多人類以前做過的事情，討論它的好處和危險(xiǎn).。

　　幾個(gè)世紀(jì)以來，人們就幻想，有一天也有智慧的機(jī)器能像人類工作和忠實(shí)的仆人。今天，這個(gè)夢想已經(jīng)在許多領(lǐng)域由于研究人工智能的迅速發(fā)展成真。這似乎是最棒的，機(jī)器有問題。

　　首先，人們失去工作的機(jī)器取代他們的位置的時(shí)候，特別是在大規(guī)模生產(chǎn)汽車行業(yè)等業(yè)務(wù)。在著名的福特汽車公司的汽車制造工廠，幾乎每一步都是由巨型機(jī)器人工作速度比人力更高的可靠性和精度。由于采用機(jī)器人，把從他們的舊的工作和被迫改變他們的工作是成千上萬的工人。即使這樣的變化創(chuàng)造就業(yè)機(jī)會，因?yàn)闄C(jī)器人需要人照顧和操作，新增工作崗位的數(shù)量要小得多的流失，造成巨大的壓力對勞動力市場和政府。

　　聰明的人越來越少，因?yàn)闄C(jī)器在他們的生活中廣泛使用。現(xiàn)在人們需要使用他們的大腦比他們在過去所做的，一切都是程序，我們唯一需要做的就是按下一個(gè)按鈕或扔在一個(gè)開關(guān)。這給了我們很大的便利，卻使我們越來越不聰明的。每個(gè)人都有尷尬的時(shí)刻困擾的一個(gè)簡單的單詞拼寫時(shí)用鋼筆寫。但有一個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)，它會自動檢查拼寫和語法的寫作。這樣的人越來越少，學(xué)習(xí)有關(guān)的事情。這不是進(jìn)步而是倒退了我們的智力和文化。

　　但是機(jī)器有許多好處，沒有人可以否認(rèn)大工作效率和低成本大批量生產(chǎn)。工作量可能需要幾個(gè)月時(shí)間才能完成的體力勞動可以完美無缺的機(jī)器人以分鐘完成。我們有了更多的購買力來享受更多種類的商品和服務(wù)的生產(chǎn)成本和工廠使用機(jī)器減少。其他的福利包括機(jī)器可以做高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)業(yè)務(wù)如采礦和建筑的人危險(xiǎn)的工作。

　　最后，機(jī)器有許多優(yōu)點(diǎn)，使我們的生活更輕松、更方便，但會引起如削弱我們的工作機(jī)會和過度依賴機(jī)器的許多問題。
