Read the text and answer the questions. (Đọc đoạn văn và trả lời các câu hỏi.)
In which paragraph (A-F) does the writer... (Trong đoạn văn nào (A-F) tác giả...)
1 provide an example of a source of advice for those selecting a career?
(lấy ví dụ về một nơi những người đang lựa chọn nghề nghiệp có thể tìm lời khuyên?)
2 give explanations for the need of a certain characteristic?
(giải thích sự cần thiết của một đặc điểm nào đó?)
3 give an example of the jobs that won’t be done properly by a robot?
(lấy ví dụ một số công việc mà robot không thể thực hiện được?)
A
The world of work has been undergoing dramatic changes. Step by step, robots are taking over manual jobs that used to be done by semi-skilled workers. Al assistants in the forms of holograms have been on trial at Changi Airport and Boston Airport. Their performance as perfectly efficient check-in staff has amazed users. Certain restaurants in South Korea have introduced tablets for self-order and have even made use of maid robots in place of waiters and 10 waitresses. Getting a secure job or a career can’t have been more challenging.
B
On leaving school, 18-year-olds are faced with one of the toughest decisions of their life: career choice. Which to pursue requires sensible decision basing on their in-depth self-understanding. Guidance from school counsellors and parents together with insights into their potentials from character tests will empower them to make informed decisions. It is also worth noticing that, in this ever-advancing world, school-leavers need to be well-prepared for changes and once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
C
However bewildering career choice may be, it is no more than the beginning of a person’s career. To further it, they have no alternative but to become better day by day. In essence, career development is a continual and lifelong process in which they need to specify their goals, boost their own confidence, improve communication skills, and expand personal networking. Actually, university graduation simply celebrates the completion of adults’ mainstream education, signifying their non-stop self-improvement.
D
Of all the qualities, a person’s flexibility will work in this full-of-changes world. Flexibility manifests itself in professional agility, problem-solving skills, change management and innovative thinking. As long as they are not set in their way of thinking, they can easily get a task done.
E
AI has been replacing certain blue-collar workers, but it can never establish a role in a field that has something to do with emotional intelligence (EQ). Automated learning machines can repeatedly lecture a subject, but they can never become an inspiring story for students. Robots in hospitals can accurately perform operations, but at no time can they comfort the lonely and suffering patients like a gentle nurse.
F
Technology has taken mankind to a world of constant change. School-leavers are expected to improve themselves and own the right skills to meet the social demands.
Gợi ý:
- There is a concern that Artificial Intelligence and automation will replace many human jobs, leading to unemployment and job insecurity.
- Many graduates are struggling to find employment after completing their studies, putting them under high levels of stress and unstable finances.
- While new job titles present new opportunities, it also requires workers to constantly update their skills to stay relevant, which can be very demanding.
- I think both the problems of AI “stealing” human jobs and students desperate for jobs after graduation are what young adults feel concerned about. Not only manual labor but more complicated jobs including even creative ones are now at risk of being replaced by AI. And talking about graduates, the rapid pace of technological change means that the skills many learned during a degree may quickly become outdated.
Dịch:
- Nhiều người lo lắng rằng trí tuệ nhân tạo và tự động hóa sẽ thay thế công việc của con người, dẫn đến tình trạng thất nghiệp và rủi ro mất việc làm.
- Nhiều sinh viên mới tốt nghiệp đang chật vật tìm kiếm việc làm sau khi tốt nghiệp. Họ ở trong tình trạng căng thẳng cao độ và tài chính không ổn định.
- Có nhiều vị trí việc làm mới thì mang lại nhiều cơ hội mới nhưng cũng đòi hỏi người lao động phải liên tục làm mới các kỹ năng để phù hợp với công việc, một thử thách không nhỏ.
- Tôi nghĩ AI “cướp” việc làm của con người lẫn sinh viên khát việc làm sau khi tốt nghiệp đều là những vấn đề mà người trẻ đang quan tâm. Không chỉ việc lao động chân tay mà những công việc phức tạp hơn, kể cả thuộc lĩnh vực sáng tạo giờ đây đều có nguy cơ bị thay thế bởi AI. Nói về sinh viên mới ra trường, tốc độ phát triển công nghệ nhanh chóng khiến cho những kỹ năng mà nhiều người học được ở đại học trở nên lỗi thời, không phù hợp nữa.
