　　As civilization proceeds in the direction of technology, it passes the point of supplying all the basic essentials of life—food, shelter, clothes and warmth. Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have now been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours.

　　I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewives will also expect to be able to have more leisure in their life without lowering their standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist. Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved completely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath of the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds.

　　By far the most logical step to relieve the housewives of routine is to provide a robot which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operation, when it is switched by the housewives.

　　1. As civilization develops in the direction of technology, ________ .

　　A. the basic essentials of life must be supplied

　　B. it is important to supply the basic essentials of life

　　C. it is no longer so important as it was in the past to supply all the basic essentials of life

　　D. it is not necessary to supply the basic essentials of life

　　2. According to the author, we are faced with _______ .

　　A. the choice of providing and fulfilling our needs

　　B. the choice of using technology

　　C. the choice of earning a standard of living

　　D. a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs and using technology to reduce the number of working hours

　　3. What alternative will mankind have chosen in future?

　　A. To leave our standard of living at this level and work shorter hours.

　　B. To raise our standard of living.

　　C. To fulfill needs which have been regarded as unnecessary.

　　D. To lower our standard of living and work shorter hours.

　　4. It can be inferred that robots will be invented to ________ .

　　A. take the place of housewives

　　B. help manage a family

　　C. do the routine of housework instead of human

　　D. provide the daily necessities for man

　　(B)

　　I can’t remember a winter being as cold as this in Pennsylvania, but I’m sure there were colder days．

　　Even though the daylight hours are growing longer minute by minute, it’s easy to find an excuse not to go out unless you absolutely must, but then again I often have to push myself to accomplish things．

　　People I speak to have been in all kinds of nasty moods. They say they’re “under the weather”, not feeling good about this time of year.

　　As I stood outside with my two dogs yesterday, it was so cold that my nose and face felt frozen and my ears were sitting．Of course, that doesn’t matter to Ricky and Lucy．They have a routine they must go through to find just the fighting spot no matter how cold or hot it is. So I wait.

　　But this time it was different．As cold as it was, I suddenly was excited thinking about how wonderful this extreme cold really was.

　　Then the sun broke through the clouds and memories of summer’s extremely hot days flashed through my mind．I could remember standing in the heat of the afternoon, with sweat pouring down my brow and the hot, burning sun against my face．I reminded myself then and there that in the cold of the winter I would wish I had this heat.

　　I was grateful for the extremes．Without the extremes in my life, I would never appreciate the days when things were just right．Without the extremes, life would be boring.

　　It’s being pushed to one of the extremes that makes us appreciate the middle more．Health challenges remind us that we need to pay more attention to how we live．Financial extremes remind us that when things go smoothly it’s also time to save for raining days．

　　I’ve come to the conclusion that all too often I find a reason not to be happy with where I am at that moment．Whether it’s hot or cold, good health or bad, in the money or out of it, I always want it to be different．

　　I’m tired of being “Under the Weather! ”
