解析
【解析】
1. 此处引导条件状语从句，结合语境填if。
2. 主语the job与see是被动关系，此处用被动语态，填see的过去分词seen。
3. even修饰形容词比较级，fast的比较级为faster，意为“以更快的速度”，符合语境。
4. 根据语境“新的工作正在涌现以满足新需求”，此处用现在进行时，spring up的现在分词形式为springing up，故填springing up。
5. 主语they（指代cashiers）与replace是被动关系，用被动语态，填replace的过去分词replaced。
6. 结合语境“顾客可以自己付款”，customers是复数，故用on their own。
7. 结合上下文，此处指新的工作，job为可数名词，需用复数形式jobs。
8. 主语trips to space与provide是被动关系，一般将来时的被动语态结构为will be+过去分词，故填be provided。
9. 此处用不定式作目的状语，表示“需要太空导游来带领人们去月球及更远的地方”，故填to lead。
10. virtual reality是固定短语，意为“虚拟现实”，故填reality。

Ⅱ. Read and answer the questions.
If you think of the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers on the list. It's easy to imagine robot cleaners and factory workers, but some jobs need human connection and creativity. Are we underestimating (低估) what robots can do? Sometimes, they already perform better than doctors at diagnosing (诊断) illnesses. Also, some patients might feel more comfortable sharing personal information with a machine than a person.
Could robots ever become teachers? British expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of the classroom: 2029. He says robots will do the main job of teaching knowledge (知识) and teachers will be like helpers. Robots will read students' faces, movements and even what they're thinking. Then they will adapt the information to each student. However, most agree that robots can't truly understand human feelings like people 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% of children under the age of 14 don't go to school. That problem could be partly solved by robots because they can teach anywhere and won't get stressed or tired.
Those downsides of teaching are something everyone agrees on. A few teachers are leaving because it is a difficult job and they feel overworked. Perhaps the question is not "Will robots replace teachers?" but "How can robots help teachers?" Office workers can use technology to do things like replying to emails or planning meetings. Some teachers spend a lot of time doing non - teaching work, including over 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend marking homework, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do best.
(
A. Do every job better than humans.
B. Put doctors and teachers out of work.
