coming for our boring table service jobs.Korean company ITM Technology has developed the restaurant
concept around a little robot that fulfills the role of a waiter.Robo Cafe avoids ordering errors,reduces
staffing costs greatly for restaurant owners,and even brings the boss all the tips.
Japan is preparing for some very tough times ahead.When its aging population become too old to
work,labor is going to be in severe shortage.So inventive technology departments are exploding with really fascinating ideas to take the pressure off when it hits.
To small cafe and restaurant owners,the solution might well look something like Robo Cafe,a restaurant designed to operate as efficiently as possible with the absolute minimum human workforce possible.The
building needs to be designed with small horizontal (水平的) pathways leading from the kitchen to all the
tables.A small team of waiter robots can then get around to every table in the house when they"re asked to come.Customers can either order orally,or touch a screen on the robot"s belly.When the kitchen has
finished preparing the food,the robot brings it out to customers.
Dan Carlin talks about the "kitchen of the future ",where everything is automated and the labor is free
because you own it.Really,the_kitchen_of_the_future_is_actually the_kitchen of_the_past,when you
consider that throughout human history,there have been many examples of slaves working for no pay.
As Carlin points out,today"s concept of slavery is mostly restricted to nonhumans.And the ownership of robot labor in a Robo Caf ?type situation will almost certainly prove itself far more economical and
dependable than a human workforce once the technology itself becomes mature.Of course,slaves have a
worrying habit of rising up against their owners.
B. bring lots of fun and profits to their owners
C. do some housework such as table service work
D. save people from having to do some boring manufacturing work
B. Owners needn"t pay for the labour of their employees.
C. Robot waiters are designed to serve customers voluntarily.
D. The building will be designed for the convenience of customers.
B. Technology won"t change the core of the kitchen.
C. Labor free of charge can be used in the kitchen again.
D. Labor free of charge is no longer limited to humans.

| It"s great fun to explore (探索) new places-it feels like an adventure, even when you know you"re not the first to have been there. But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles. Do the map reading if you"re being driven somewhere.It"ll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you"re traveling in Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or you"ll have to move to the back seat. Get a group of friends together and go exploring.You"ll need a good map, a compass (指南针), a raincoat,a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies (应急现金). Tell someone where you"re going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The test is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up. See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C, etc. ) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. Either way, it"s not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit. |

| The fridge is considered a necessity. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with the label:"store in the refrigerator". In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came daily, the grocer, the butcher, the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat wou  ldlast until Wednesday and surplus (剩余) bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted, and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on, food deliveries have ceased, fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country. The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation. A vast way of well-tried techniques already existed -natural cooling, drying, smoking, salting, sugaring, bottling…. What refrigeration did promote was marketing-marketing hardware and electricity, marketing soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price. Consequently, most of the world"s fridges are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the wealthy countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum(嗡嗡响) away continuously, and at vast expense, busily maintaining an artificially-coo1ed space inside an artificially-h  eated hous e -while outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of charge.The fridge"s effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been insignificant. If you don"t believe me, try it yourself, invest in a food cabinet and turn off your fridge next winter. You may miss the hamburgers, but at least you"ll get rid of that terrible hum. |
