They’ll make you wiser, stronger, and more powerful than you were the day before. When you make a mistake, be thankful for the things they teach you.
It’s also important to decide 95. what you want. Then keep your mind focused on it, and be prepared to receive it.
But be ready to end up in some new places too. As you grow up, you’ll be given bigger shoes to fill. So be ready for endings 96. challenging beginnings. Sometimes we have to be brave enough to move from the 97. to the unfamiliar.
Remember that your decisions will create your successes and failures(失败). So consider all the roads ahead, and decide which ones to follow. Then believe in yourself, get up, and get going.
Most important of all, never give up yourself. The person that ends up as a winner is the one who has the strong will to win. Gi ve life everything you’ve got, and life will give its 98. back to you.

【解析】
试题分析：短文大意：现在，工厂里有许多机器人在工作，它们帮助制造小车，反复做一些简单的工作。

这些工作很厌烦，而机器人不会厌烦。

将来很少有人会做这些工作。

日本的有些机器人会走路和跳舞，将来会有更多的机器人。

有些科学家相信我们可以造出像人一样移动的机器人并使它们真正地像人一样思考和交谈。

然而，这可能要花数百年的时间。

未来的机器人有不同的外形，比如人、植物、动物等等。

你认为你将来会有自己的机器人吗？
71.finish 句意：他们可以帮助制造小车并且反复地做一些简单的工作。

and表示并列，从句子结构上可以分析出这里是填动词，由后面的doing可以想到finish doing sth这个结构，故填finish。

72.bored句意：将会有更少的人做这些工作因为它们令人生厌，但是机器人不会厌烦。
