第一篇
Roles Most Likely to Be Replaced by AI
哪些工作最可能被AI取代
Written by Nicole Vesota
The advent of AI is not simply a matter of technological _______(advance); it’s a pivotal moment in history with the potential to redefine career paths and job security. Akin to the Industrial Revolution, understanding the jobs that AI will revolutionize and those it cannot replace _______(be) crucial.
This _______(explore) will illuminate (v.照亮) the shifting landscape and guide you towards making informed career decisions in an AI-driven world.
The proliferation (n.（数量的）激增) of AI tools and technologies marks _______profound impact on the job market, reminiscent of the Industrial Revolution’s sweeping changes. While AI promises to create new jobs and enhance worker productivity, it also portends (v.预示，预兆) the job loss of millions, particularly in roles that AI will replace with automation and advanced AI algorithms. Exploring how AI is transforming the job market, we can see that careers in the near future will look markedly different from those of today.
Certain job roles, particularly those _______(characterize) by repetitive tasks, stand at the frontline of AI’s advance. With generative AI and machine learning technologies evolving rapidly, positions like customer service representatives, data entry clerks, and factory workers face a high risk of replacement.
AI automation is not limited _______ blue-collar jobs; it’s making its way into the white-collar realm as well. Fields such as finance and law, _______(traditional) considered secure, are now facing the reality of AI technology automating their routine tasks. Financial analysts, legal assistants, and market research analysts are among those _______ might feel the ground shifting beneath their feet as AI continues to redefine job roles across various industries.
The creative and media sectors are not immune to AI’s encroachment (n.侵入，侵犯；侵蚀). With AI-generated content and art becoming more sophisticated, concerns are growing among writers and graphic designers about the security of their jobs. Generative AI tools, powered by artificial intelligence, are now capable of producing articles, books, and images that previously required human creativity and expertise.
In the transportation and logistics arena, AI’s advancements are reshaping the industry in the following ways: Autonomous vehicles are threatening to replace human drivers. AI-powered route planning is improving efficiency and reducing costs. AI-powered travel platforms are offering personalized recommendations that once required human expertise Contract logistics, supply chain optimization (n.最佳化，最优化), and product demand forecasting Warehouse automation. These changes are revolutionizing the roles of drivers and travel advisors and transforming the way transportation and 3PL logistics companies operate.
While AI _______(enter) almost all job sectors in recent years, some career roles are less susceptible to automation. They include certain jobs in teaching and education, healthcare, creative professions, and construction. _______(adapt) to an AI-driven job market requires lifelong learning, developing soft skills that AI cannot replicate, and leveraging AI as a collaborative tool to stay competitive.

What Spain can teach the rest of Europe
西班牙“逆袭”——为欧洲指明了方向
Source: The Economist
A DOZEN YEARS ago Spain was a byword (n.谚语，俗语；笑柄) for economic failure. The country’s government and banks appeared _______(lock) in a death spiral and depended on bail-outs (指政府或其他组织向陷入财务困境的公司或国家提供财政支持).
How that has changed. By our reckoning, the country is on course to be the best-performing rich-world economy of 2024 across a range of measures including GDP growth, inflation, _______(employment), fiscal policy and the performance of the stock market. Both overall economic growth and the pace of job creation are running faster than in America, which has been the envy of the rich world.
Greece and Ireland, which were also crisis-stricken a decade ago, have fared well in 2024, too. So has Denmark, _______ the economy has been boosted by the success of Novo Nordisk’s anti-obesity drugs. But it is Spain that offers the best rejoinder to those who say Europe is doomed to stagnation (n.（经济）不景气，停滞). Its economy is reaping the reward of past reforms. That offers lessons for the rest of the continent, but should also serve _______ a warning for Spanish policymakers today.
One lesson is to focus on services and not fetishise manufacturing. _______ industrial production has not fallen as fast in Spain as in Germany, partly thanks to lower energy costs, it has still stagnated(v.停滞). But tourism has bounced back from its pandemic low, and the country is moving up the value chain, _______(increasing) exporting consulting services and technological know-how as well as sun and sangría. Non-tourism services _______(rise) from around 5.5% of GDP before the pandemic to between 7-8% so far, says BBVA, a bank.
Another lesson is to stay open. Whereas young people once left Spain in search of opportunities, now they arrive instead. Since 2019 the country’s foreign-born workforce has risen by around 1.2m, mostly from Latin America. Many of these migrants are in low-paid, low-skilled employment, meaning that though the economy is 7% bigger than in 2019, it is only 3% bigger after adjusting for population growth. Yet that is still better than in countries such as Britain and Canada, which have seen similar immigration _______(boom), but a decline in GDP per person.
Spain has also welcomed investment from Chinese firms. On December 10th Stellantis, a carmaker, and CATL, _______ Chinese battery-maker, said they would build a new battery factory in Zaragoza. Chery International, a Chinese carmaker, has chosen Barcelona as the site for its first European manufacturing plant.
Most important, Spain shows that structural reforms bring long-term rewards. Much of its recent success reflects decisions after the financial crisis to reform its banks and labour market. The financial sector has consolidated, and labour-market reforms have made _______ easier to renegotiate contracts and encouraged bosses to take on more permanent staff. A package of measures_______(aim) to boost renewables, including abolishing the “sun tax” that levied (v.征收（罚款、税款等）) additional fees on solar power, has helped green energy boom.

After a 2,000-Mile Trip, a Penguin Finds Itself on an Australian Beach
一只企鹅迷路来到澳大利亚
Source: New York Times
It was a day as Australian _______ you can get: Sun, waves and surfing at the beach. And then something distinctly (adv.明显地) un-Australian turned up.
Aaron Fowler and a friend were heading back to the parking lot after a day in the waves. "We saw something coming out of the water," Mr. Fowler, a 37-year-old drywall repairman, said. "We thought it was a seabird, but then we thought, 'Oh, that's way too big,' and it had a big, long neck and a tail _______(stick)out like a duck.
It stood up in the water and waddled (vi.摇摇摆摆地走) straight up to us and just started cleaning _______(it)." Standing there on the beach in the small town of Denmark in Western Australia on Friday afternoon was a male emperor penguin, about 2,100 miles from _______one might expect to find it, in Antarctica.
Mr. Fowler had seen plenty of dolphins and other creatures in the waves, including one leopard seal, _______ is also native to Antarctica, but he never expected a penguin. "We were in shock," he said.
Even someone with years of experience studying penguins was surprised at the sighting. "That crazy young penguin," said Dee Boersma, a professor of biology at the University of Washington and author of "Penguins: Natural History and Conservation."
"Emperor penguins move around, _______ they have to be on an ice sheet or a glacier (n.冰河，冰川) to raise young, and the glaciers are eroding (v.侵蚀) away," she said. "That's not unusual. You've got to continue to swim until you find food. But this is the _______(far)north I've heard of an emperor penguin." Record low sea-ice levels in the Antarctic have wreaked (v.造成（巨大的破坏或伤害）) havoc (n.灾难，混乱) on the lives of emperor penguins. Penguins_______(seek) new breeding grounds over the months, but normally they stay relatively close to their old homes.
The penguin who arrived in Australia did not seem to have been flummoxed (v.使混乱) too much by its new surroundings. The penguin "seemed completely happy," Mr. Fowler said. "It was not at all shy. It was very friendly. It was quite happy in our company." Mr. Fowler alerted the authorities about the newly_______(immigrate) Aussie penguin. It was picked up and is being cared for; its rehabilitation is expected to take _______ few weeks, the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions of Western Australia said.
"The penguin appeared _______(be) malnourished (adj.营养不良的；营养失调的)," the agency said, "and _______(remove) from the beach to avoid potential threats from dogs, cats, foxes and vehicles."
While the penguin may be settling into life Down Under, on the beach it soon discovered that sand and ice are two different things. "He did a little belly slide on the sand; I think he thought it was snow," Mr. Fowler said. "He didn't get far. He had a bit of a tumble (n.跌倒)."

第一篇：
人工智能的出现不仅仅是技术进步的问题；它是历史上的重要时刻，有可能重新定义职业道路和工作保障。类似于工业革命，了解人工智能将彻底改变的工作以及它无法取代的工作至关重要。
这次探索将照亮不断变化的格局，并指导你在人工智能驱动的世界中做出明智的职业决策。
人工智能工具和技术的激增对就业市场产生了深远的影响，让人想起工业革命的翻天覆地变化。虽然人工智能有望创造新的就业机会并提高工人的生产力，但它也预示着数百万人的失业，特别是在人工智能将用自动化和先进的人工智能算法取代的角色中。探索人工智能如何改变就业市场，我们可以看到，在不久将来的职业将与今天明显不同。
某些工作角色，特别是那些以重复任务为特征的工作角色，站在人工智能进步的前线。随着生成性人工智能和机器学习技术的快速发展，客户服务代表、数据输入文员和工厂工人等职位面临替代的高风险。
人工智能自动化不仅限于蓝领工作；它也正在进入白领领域。传统上被认为是安全的金融和法律等领域，现在正面临着人工智能技术自动化其日常任务的现实。随着人工智能继续重新定义各行业的工作角色，金融分析师、法律助理和市场研究分析师可能会感到脚下的地面正在发生转变。
创意和媒体部门也不能幸免于人工智能的侵占。随着人工智能生成的内容和艺术变得越来越复杂，作家和平面设计师越来越担心他们的工作安全。由人工智能驱动的生成性人工智能工具现在能够制作以前需要人类创造力和专业知识的文章、书籍和图像。
在运输和物流领域，人工智能的进步正在以下方面重塑该行业：自动驾驶汽车正威胁取代人类司机。人工智能驱动的路线规划正在提高效率并降低成本人工智能驱动的旅游平台正在提供个性化的建议，这些建议曾经需要人类专业知识合同物流、供应链优化和产品需求预测仓库自动化这些变化正在彻底改变司机和旅行顾问的角色，并改变运输和3PL物流公司的运营方式。
虽然人工智能已经进入了几乎所有的工作领域，但一些职业角色不太容易受到自动化的影响。它们包括教学和教育、医疗卫生、创意职业和建筑业的某些工作。适应人工智能驱动的就业市场需要终身学习，培养人工智能无法复制的软技能，并利用人工智能作为协作工具来保持竞争力。
第二篇：
十二年前，西班牙的经济几乎是一败涂地的代名词。政府和银行像是陷入了死循环，依赖救助才能维持运转。
情况已经发生了变化。按照我们的估算，西班牙有望成为2024年发达国家中表现最好的经济体，涵盖多个指标，包括GDP增长、通胀、失业率、财政政策以及股市表现。无论是整体经济增长还是就业增长的速度，都快于美国，而美国一直以来都是发达国家中的标杆。
希腊和爱尔兰，十年前同样深受危机困扰，但今年表现良好。丹麦也取得了不错的成绩，这得益于诺和诺德抗肥胖药物的成功推动了经济增长。但只有西班牙才是对那些认为欧洲经济注定停滞不前的观点最有力的反驳。如今西班牙经济正在收获过去改革的成果。这为欧洲大陆的其他国家提供了经验教训，同时也为今天的西班牙政策制定者提供了警示。
第一个警示是，应该专注于服务业，而不是过度依赖制造业。尽管西班牙的工业生产没有像德国那样急速下滑，这多半是由于西班牙能源成本较低，但它依然停滞不前。然而，旅游业已经从疫情低谷中复苏，而且西班牙正在向价值链的上游发展，尤其是那些高附加值的产业，如技术和专业服务，同时仍然保留和发展传统的旅游特色，如阳光海滩和桑格利亚酒。BBVA银行表示，疫情前非旅游服务业占GDP的比重约为5.5%，而现在已经上升到7%到8%之间。
第二个警示是保持开放。曾经年轻人纷纷选择离开，如今却选择杳杳归路。从2019年以来，西班牙的外籍劳动力增加了约120万人，主要来自拉丁美洲。这些移民中的许多人从事低薪、低技能的工作，这意味着尽管西班牙的经济比2019年增长了7%，但在调整人口增长后，实际增长只有3%。然而，这仍然比英国和加拿大等国家要好，这些国家也经历了类似的移民潮，但人均GDP却出现下降。
西班牙欢迎中国企业投资。12月10日，汽车制造商斯泰兰蒂斯（Stellantis）和中国电池制造商宁德时代（CATL）宣布，他们将在萨拉戈萨建设一座新的电池工厂。中国汽车制造商奇瑞国际（Chery International）也选择巴塞罗那作为欧洲的首个制造工厂。
最重要的是，西班牙证明了结构性改革带来的长期回报。西班牙近期取得的成功，主要是由于金融危机之后所作出的一系列重要决策，些决策推动了银行和劳动市场的改革。金融行业完成了整合，劳动市场改革使得重新谈判合同变得更容易，并鼓励企业主雇佣更多的正式员工。此外，一系列旨在推动可再生能源的措施，特别是废除了对太阳能征收附加费用的“阳光税”，也促进了绿色能源的快速增长。
第三篇：
那是极其典型的澳大利亚的一天：阳光、海浪、沙滩边冲浪。然后某个明显很不澳大利亚的东西出现了。
亚伦·福勒和一个朋友在海里玩了一天，正返回停车场。“我们看到有什么东西从水里爬了出来，”37岁的干砌墙修理工福勒说，“我们以为是一只海鸟，但后来我们想，‘哦，那也太大了’，它脖子很粗、很长，尾巴像鸭子一样伸出来。
它从水中站起来，摇摇摆摆地径直向我们走来，然后开始梳理皮毛。”那个周五下午，站在澳大利亚西部丹麦小镇海滩上的是一只雄性帝企鹅，距离它通常出现的地点——南极洲——大约2100英里。
福勒曾在海里看到过很多海豚和其他生物，包括一只同样原生于南极洲的豹海豹，但他从未想到过会看到企鹅。“我们当时惊呆了。”他说。
即使有多年研究企鹅经验的人对于看到企鹅也感到惊讶。“那只年轻企鹅疯了。”迪·博尔斯玛说，她是华盛顿大学生物学教授，也是《企鹅：自然历史与保护》一书的作者。
“帝企鹅会四处行动，因为它们必须在冰盖或冰川上养育幼崽，而冰川正在逐渐消失，”她说，“这并不罕见。你得一直游，直到找到食物。但这是我听说过的帝企鹅到达的最北的地方。”南极海冰的创纪录低水平给帝企鹅的生活带来了严重破坏。企鹅因此寻找新的繁殖地，但通常会相对靠近它们的旧家园。
这只来到澳大利亚的企鹅似乎并没有被新环境搞糊涂。福勒说，“这只企鹅似乎挺开心的。它一点也不害羞，非常友好，和我们待在一起很开心。”
福勒向相关部门报告了这只刚移民澳洲的企鹅的情况。它已被接走，并正在接受照顾，西澳大利亚生物多样性、保护和景点部门表示，它身体康复预计需要几周时间。该机构称：“这只企鹅似乎营养不良，为了避免受到狗、猫、狐狸和车辆的潜在伤害，它已被带离海滩。”
虽然这只企鹅现在可能正在澳大利亚安顿下来，但当时在海滩上，它很快就发现沙子和冰是不同的。“他用肚皮在沙子上滑行了一下，我想他以为那是雪，”福勒说，“他没滑多远，还差点翻了一跟头。”
