Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions
 If you think of the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers
at the top of the list. It’s easy to imagine robot cleaners and factory workers, but some jobs need
human connection and creativity. But are we underestimating what robots can do?
In some cases, they already perform better than doctors at diagnosing illnesses. 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 predicts 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 adapt the information
to each student. It’s not a popular opinion and it’s unlikely that robots will ever have empathy
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 percent of children under the age of 14 don’t
go to school. That problem can be partly solved by robots because they can teach anywhere and
won’t get stressed, or tired, or move somewhere for an easier, higher-paid job.
Question 44. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Human teachers never get tired.
B. Robots will replace human teachers completely.
C. Robots will play a role in education.
D. Robots are better than human teachers.

______________.
A. exploring B. giving C. sharing D. moving
Question 46. According to British education expert Anthony Seldon teachers in the future will
______________.
A. get higher salary B. longer exist C. help robots in class D. teach students skills
Question 47. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage.
A. Robots have better connections with students than teachers do.
B. There aren't enough teachers in some places.
C. Robots can teach without getting stressed.
D. Robots can do better than doctors in some situations.
Question 48. What is one problem that robots could help solve in education?
A. Lack of creativity in teaching B. Not enough qualified teachers
C. High cost of education D. Need for emotional support
Question 49. The word “empathy” in paragraph 2 is OPPOSITE in meaning to ____________.
A. understanding B. indifference C. connection D. kindness
Question 50. In which paragraph does the writer mention that a robot teacher is worse than a
humam teacher?
A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph
4
