If you think of the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers at the top of the
list. It's easy to imagine robot cleaners and factory workers, but some jobs need human connection and
creativity. Could there be a place for robots in education after all?
British education expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of the
classroom. By 2027 he predicts robots will do the main job of transferring information and teachers will be
like assistants. Intelligent robots will read students' faces, movements and maybe even brain signals. Then
they will adapt the information to each student. It's not a popular opinion and it's unlikely robots will ever
have empathy and the ability to really connect with humans like another human 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 per cent 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, or move
somewhere for an easier, higher-paid job.
Those negative aspects of teaching are something everyone agrees on. Teachers all over the world 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 software to do things like organise and
answer emails, arrange meetings and update calendars. Teachers waste a lot of time doing non-teaching
work, including more than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend
marking homework and writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job
humans do best.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
Over three hundred years ago, in 1714, the British government offered a prize of £20,000 (worth several
million pounds today) for a competition. They wanted someone to solve a very important problem. At
that time people were travelling long distances by sea for trading, often as far as the Americas and the
Caribbean. But they didn‟t have a good way of knowing their position while they were at sea. Sailors
usually used the stars to navigate, but this was not reliable. Was it really possible for a great prize to inspire
invention?

Apparently the answer was yes! The British prize, called the Longitude Prize, was eventually won by a
clockmaker called John Harrison. Everyone at the time thought that the solution would be related to the
stars. They thought the winner would be an astronomer. However, John Harrison, a clockmaker from
Yorkshire, realised that the answer was to know the exact time in different places. If the sailors knew
the exact time in London, when they were at sea, they could gauge their position. The difficulty he
had was that the most reliable clocks in the 1700s were big and unfeasible for sea journeys. His first
few attempts to design a new clock for use at sea were not successful. However, he kept trying and after
forty years he invented a timepiece that looked like a watch, called a chronometer. It was a brilliant
invention. He won the money and the first chronometer, called the H4 can be seen today at the Royal
Observatory in Greenwich, London.

In May 2014 a new Longitude Prize of £10 million was announced. Perhaps a big money prize could
encourage another great scientific invention. But which global problem should be the challenge? Six
problems were identified and then the British people were asked to choose which they thought was the
most important. The problems were from different areas of everyday life. Three were directly connected to
health and giving people a better life – finding new antibiotics, helping people live with dementia and
dealing with paralysis. Another two problems were to provide enough clean water and food for everyone.
And a final
problem was to find an environmentally-friendly way of travelling by air, to reduce pollution. Throughout
May and June in 2014 people discussed and voted on the different issues. What do you think the result was?
Antibiotics!
