Read a text about people's different attitudes towards intelligent machines. Answer the questions that follow.

Rapid advances in robotic applications for domestic and personal use have made intelligent robots become part of our everyday lives. In order to help robot designers and developers to imagine a roadmap for their development in the future, there have been surveys conducted in many countries to study people's attitudes towards robots, with a particular focus on domestic use.
Globally, the results show that a large proportion of people in the surveys have a positive attitude towards the idea of having intelligent service robots as small ‘domestic machines'. These machines can be ‘controlled' and do mainly difficult and repetitive household tasks such as cleaning, ironing, and cooking. A few want robots to be more like friends and have human-like abilities such as the ability to speak and communicate with them. However, these people do not want robots to have human appearance or to substitute humans in child or animal care because they regard these tasks as unsuitable for machines.
On the other hand, many people have a negative attitude towards robots. They fear that machine malfunction could lead to harmful and dangerous consequences. The biggest fear is that humans might lose control over robots. All these ideas seem to come from a typical science-fiction scenario where robots get out of control by gaining too much autonomy. Having positive or negative attitudes towards intelligent robots is not related to where the interviewees live. A majority of them are in countries where they have daily contact with robots in various industries or businesses, and see them on TV, in films, or in their immediate environment. Most of them believe that the day robots will become part of our lives will come sooner or later.
