今天是2020年11月22日，大學英語六級口語考試今天舉行。大學英語六級口語考試分三個部分，部分是自我介紹和問答，第二部分是陳述和討論，第三部分是問答。本場口語考試討論的主題為“Artificial Intelligence”，討論的主要內(nèi)容是“人工智能會不會讓很多人失業(yè)”以下展示一篇討論，供考生參考。

Candidate A: In recent years, artificial intelligence(AI) has made rapid advances, which has raised some concerns. One of them is whether AI will lead to mass unemployment. Then what do you think of it?

Candidate B: Of course, artificial intelligence will put some people out of work. For example, the telegraph operator lost his job when the telephone appeared.

Candidate A: Many people are afraid of losing their jobs because they only work hard and don’t think.

Candidate B: Yes, you are right. Though AI makes some people lose their job, it also gives opportunities to other people who are good at thinking.

Candidate A: Well, I agree with your idea. Sedan chairs and carriages disappeared with the advent of car, as did the carter, but the demand for car drivers increased significantly.

Candidate B: Yeah. Compared with carters, car drivers are better at thinking.

Candidate A: The development of AI technology not only brings about unemployment, it also brings about more job opportunities.

Candidate B: So this reminds us to strive to improve our own quality, and warns us to be a person who is good at thinking.
