Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.

The integration of robots into manufacturing processes has sparked both excitement and apprehension. While robots offer significant benefits, concerns about their impact on employment and the workforce are also prevalent.

One of the most notable advantages of robots in manufacturing is their ability to enhance productivity and efficiency. Robots can perform repetitive tasks with precision and speed, reducing the likelihood of errors and increasing output. This enhanced efficiency can lead to cost savings for businesses and potentially lower prices for consumers.

However, the increased use of robots in manufacturing also raises concerns about job displacement. As robots become more sophisticated, they can perform tasks previously done by human workers, potentially leading to job losses in certain sectors. This shift in the labor market necessitates a focus on retraining and upskilling programs to equip workers with the skills needed for new roles.

Despite these concerns, it''s important to note that robots are not intended to replace human workers entirely. Instead, they are often seen as collaborators, working alongside humans to improve overall productivity and safety. For instance, robots can handle hazardous materials or perform physically demanding tasks, reducing the risk of workplace injuries for human workers.

What is the main topic discussed in the reading passage?

  1. The technical specifications of different robot models.
  2. The history of robots in manufacturing.
