We are already familiar with computers. They work for us at homes, in offices and in factories. We benefit(受益) a lot from the computers ,but at the same time, with the development of this high technology, it also caused a lot of trouble. One of them is the jobs’ problem.

Many people want to work, but it has become more difficult for people to find work in today’s work. Ma Yun’s unmanned supermarket appeared in 2017. It shows that more and more people will lose jobs even the simple job as a shop worker . The economy (經(jīng)濟(jì)) of the world needs to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often this is not possible, and so more people are out of work. Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work instead of many people in short time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holiday. In all of the countries of the world, machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work as much as forty people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.

1.It was _______ for people to find jobs today than before.

A. more difficult B. not possible C. easier

2.If the economy of the world grows by 4% each year, _______.

A. people will have no jobs B. people can still have jobs as before

C. only 4% of the people will have jobs

3.One machine can do as much work as _______.

A. 75,000 people B. 14 people in the world C. 40 people

4.If 75,000 people move to the cities a day to look for jobs, how many of them can find jobs?

A. 52,500 people. B. 3,500 people. C. About 75,000 people.

5.Where may this article come from?

When you are busy with your schoolwork, you might find it tough to get enough sleep. We all know that not getting enough sleep is bad for our health. But it has been found that less sleep could even cause you to have fewer friends, the Guardian reported.

According to researchers from the University of California, people who don't get enough sleep are less willing to socialize(社交) with others. They are simply too tired to go out.

The researchers did a small study. They tested 18 young people who just had a good night’s sleep as well as tested them again after a sleepless night. The participants watched videos of people with neutral (中性的) expressions walking toward them. When the person on the video got too "close" to them, they pushed a button (按鈕) to stop the video, which recorded how close they allowed the person to get.

The results showed that people kept the person at a distance of 60 percent further back if they hadn’t gotten enough sleep. They felt that their personal space was being invaded(侵占). But when the participants got a good night’s sleep, they allowed the person to get much closer to them.

According to lead （領(lǐng)頭）researcher Matthew Walker, the less sleep you get, the less you want to socialize with others. In turn, other people may think you are weird and stay away from you. This can make you feel lonely and cause you to sleep even less. It becomes a vicious cycle(惡性循環(huán)). So if you want to be a more sociable and popular person, sleeping well might help. "One night of good sleep. makes you feel more outgoing and socially confident," Walker told the Daily Mail.
