Discuss the questions.
1e
3. What do you
think we should do to prepare for the future
2. What do you think are the most important qualities that people in the future should develop
1. Do you think
robots will replace humans one day Why do you think so
quality / kw l ti/ n. 素質；質量；品質
adj. 優質的；高質量的
develop /d vel p/
v. 增強；發展；開發
Example
觀點 1：不會取代
I don’t think robots will replace humans one day. Because humans have creativity and emotional intelligence. For example, robots can’t write touching stories or understand deep human feelings like we do. We can make friends, love others, but robots just follow programs.
觀點 2：部分取代（但有限）
Maybe robots will replace humans in some simple jobs, like factory work or cleaning. But they can’t replace us in jobs needing human connection, such as teaching or nursing. Teachers can encourage students with love, but robots can’t do that.
1. Do you think robots will replace humans one day Why do you think so
Example
I think creativity, adaptability and teamwork are important. Creativity helps us invent new things. Adaptability lets us deal with future changes, like new jobs. Teamwork makes us work well with others, maybe even with robots!
Learning skills and kindness are key. We need to keep learning new knowledge for future jobs. And kindness helps us care about others, which robots can’t have.
2. What do you think are the most important qualities that people in the future should develop
First, study hard to get more knowledge.
Second, learn new skills like coding or foreign languages.
Also, stay curious about new things, so we can adapt to changes easily.
We should exercise to stay healthy, because a good body helps us face future challenges. And read more books to open our minds. Plus, practice teamwork in group activities.
3. What do you think we should do to prepare for the future
Example
Homework
1. Interview three classmates, ask them the questions in part 1e, take notes and organize the information. We will share it in the next class.
2. Recite the key words and sentences of this lesson.
