大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【挑战】的话题。
你的生活中，遇到过的最大的挑战是什么呢？我想了一下我自己的经历，有两件事情我觉得是很大的挑战。
第一件事情是，大三的时候我去日本留学。大一大二的时候我学习非常努力，最后通过了面试，拿到了去日本当一年交换生的机会。那是我第一次出国，在那以前，我从来没有坐过飞机。在紧张和害怕中，我开启了日本留学之旅。到了日本以后，因为文化差异，语言障碍和学习压力，我遇到了很多的挑战。但是人往往是在困难中成长的，这一年我经历了很多，也成长了不少。
第二件事情是，我决定从兼职的中文老师变成全职的。在这之前，我在一家日本公司上班。我很喜欢我的同事，但是我对我的工作不是很有激情。我给学生上课的时候就很不一样了，我更开心，也更有活力。决定辞职是一个很大的挑战，因为我要考虑很多的事情。例如，收入是不是稳定？我是不是喜欢在家办公？最后我还是决定辞职了，因为我觉得可以做自己喜欢的工作是一件很幸运的事情，我应该好好抓住这个机会。
你现在的生活有什么挑战呢？我觉得我最大的挑战是做好时间管理，因为我想要做的事情太多了。我每天要给学生上课，我还做中文播客，做中文学习视频。我还想做更多的学习资料，帮助我的学生学好中文。这需要时间，我应该耐心点，一点点做。
关于挑战，你有什么故事？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

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. But are we underestimating what robots can do? In some cases, they already perform better than doctors at diagnosing illness. Also, some patients might feel more comfortable sharing personal information with a machine than a person. 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: 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.

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.
