I'm now at a special university where 46 speech and hearing impaired（受损）students graduate each year. Every morning,I made it a practice of setting the intention(意图) in my heart of "May I be a tool for them to get what they need right now ".
Today, one girl came and sat down. I started with how we usually do. She can speak but cannot hear and lip-read. I asked one question, and she went on for 10 minutes straight,and in Tamil(泰米尔语).I understood a couple of words here and there,so I understood that she was not saying anything connected with what I asked. I just kept on listening to her without speaking a word. This went on for an hour and a half! Then, after a long pause, I told her to get back on track with another question. And then she shared for another half an hour straight! The whole time I was just looking in her eyes which would go here and there but come back to me. In the end, I just got up and hugged her and she was smiling wider.
Then I invited her to have juice with me. She said yes. What put me in a state of fear was realizing, just a few minutes latery that treating my new friend to some juice was the first celebration of my very first salary! A month ago, I started my first job, and what a blessing to have this important moment in my life be rooted in generosity.

If you think of the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers at the top of the list. But, in some cases, they already perform better than doctors at diagnosing(诊断）illness. Also some patients might feel more comfortable sharing personal information with a machine than a person. Could there be a place for robots in education after all
British education expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of the classroom: 2027. He believes robots will do the main job of transferring information and teachers will be like assistants. Intelligent robots will read students' faces, movements and maybe even brain signals. Then they will transfer the information to each student. It's not a popular opinion and it's unlikely robots will ever have empathy(共情） and the ability to really connect with humans like another human can.
One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is better than no teacher at all. In some parts of the world, there aren't enough teachers and 9-16 per cent of children under the age of 14 don't go to school. Teachers all over the world are leaving because it is a difficult and lower-paid job and they feel overworked. That problem could be partly solved by robots.
Perhaps the question is not "Will robots replace teachers " but "How can robots help eteachers " Teachers waste a lot of time doing non-teaching work. including more than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend marking homework and writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do best.
9、What does Anthony Seldon think of robots in 2027
A. Robots can do most teaching.
B. Robots will work as assistants.
C. Robots can only transfer information.
D. Robots will have empathy like humans.
10、Why are robot teachers necessary
A. Because robot teachers cost less.
B. Because robot teachers teach better.
C. Because there aren't enough teachers.
D. Because there are already robot doctors.
11、What is the meaning of the underlined word “takeover" in Paragraph 2
A.接管 B.负责 C.安排 D.上课
12、Which can be the best title for the text
A. Illness diagnosing B. Robot teachers
C. Information transferring D. Education problems
二、填空题
13、How to Survive a Stampede(蜂拥)

What should we do in case of similar crowding and trampling(踩踏） accidents Here are a few tips to increase the chances of survival in an incident.
