Read the following passage carefully, then write True (T) or False (F) for each statement.
 People are very interested in robots. Some of them look like mechanical dolls to play with. Most of them look like other machines of today's high technologv. Serious research on intelligent robots began in the 1960s in several countries. Now we are on the fifth generation of robots. The first robots were very expensive. They cost $500,000 when a worker could do the same work for $15 an hour. By the early 1970s, a robot brain, a computer, cost $300,000. Today's robots cost from $15,000 to $150,000.
 One of the advantages of robots is that they can work in situations that are dangerous or harmful for human workers. Today there are millions of people who work at machines in the world. Robots will replace them. Part of the problem will be solved because of the decrease in the number of births. There will be fewer people looking for jobs. Many people will find changes in their jobs, and they will not like some of them.
 The student of today must be sure that these changes are good. Robots must improve, not harm, the quality of human life.

30. ......We have five generation of robots to appear in the near future.

Read the following passage carefully, then write True (T) or False (F) for each statement. 
 We can develop alternative sources of energy, and unless we try we'll never succeed. Instead of burning fossil fuels we should be concentrating on more economic uses of electricity, because electricity can be produced from any sources of energy. If we didn't waste so much energy, our resources would last longer. We can save more energy by conservation than you can produce for the same money. Unless we do research on solar energy, wind power, tidal power, hydroelectric plants, our fossil fuels will run out and we'll all freeze or starve to death.
 Many countries are spending much more on research because energy from the sun, the waves and the wind lasts forever. We really won't survive unless we start working on cleaner, safer sources of energy.
29. ......Electricity can only be produced from fossil fuels.
