From self-driving cars to carebots (care+robots) for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.

"The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces," said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.

A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.

The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.

But the report states:" Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs—just changing what people do." Growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research.

"The growth of 20-to-40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies," it states.

A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured "a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create," according to Aaron Smith, the report's co-author.

"Technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change," Microsoft's Jonathan Grudin told researchers.

I believe that one of the best ways to connect with people and build quality relationships is through making conversation. Although most people can hold a conversation, only a few are smooth when they talk. I have discovered five simple and effective ways to be a smooth talker. Here they are:

Talk slowly

Generally, good talkers don't rush into a conversation.They act as if they have all the time in the world. This makes them come off as centered and collected. Model this way of talking and you will create the same effect.

Hold more eye contact

Most people keep eye contact about 2/3 of the time or less when they talk.This will convey confidence and interest in interacting with them.

People with good conversation skills tend to notice the kind of things that the average person doesn't notice, and to bring such details into the conversation. They may notice and point out an interesting ring on the other person's hand, a certain foreign accent, or a certain voice tone they use when saying a name. Thus, such individuals impress people in a very elegant manner.

Express Your emotions

Express your feelings about those facts. Keep in mind that it is at the emotional level that people connect best.

Use the best words

The ability to talk smoothly has a lot to do with choosing the precise words to convey your precise feelings or thoughts.It will help you develop a way with words and allow you to express yourself more easily.

Conversational skills don't improve just like that. It takes time, practice and the ability to learn at a rapid rate from your own experiences.

A. Don't just present the facts, you're not a newspaper.

B. It's a very good idea to hold eye contact just a bit more than that.

C. Notice the details.

D. It is important to improve conversational skills.

E. Offer interesting news.

F. They take their time when they reflect on something and when they say it out loud.

G. Develop your vocabulary and practice communicating as accurately as possible.

I loved my first-grade teacher, Mrs. Gross. She had such a sweet smile and was 1 to us.

Unlike some other teachers, she never 3 her students. To me, it felt like having a second 4 as my teacher. I always remember the time I spent in her classroom the most fondly.

One such 5 is still with me to today. We were doing subtraction (减法) math problems when Mrs. Gross walked through the classroom 6 our work. I 7 it first and lifted my head up just as Mrs. Gross walked up behind me. She looked at my work and 8. Then she said, "Well done, Joe. You're a very 9 boy. "As she walked on, she 10 touched my shoulder and I felt excitement in my heart. It felt so good to be 11. From that moment on, I always tried my best. I always wanted to be what she 12 me to be. She awakened a 13 in me to be the best person I could be. With her good words full of love and 14, I started down a wonderful path that I am 15 on today.
