Answer

Brief Explanations:

  • Source 1: El CEO dice que los robots ayudan a los trabajadores y es bueno para ellos y los consumidores, respaldando la idea de que los beneficios superan a los costos.
  • Source 6: El vicepresidente senior dice que son buenos para la economía, lo cual apoya la afirmación positiva.
  • Source 4: Los empleados dicen que Amazon ayuda a empresas a dañar el medio ambiente, lo que apoya la afirmación negativa.
  • Source 5: Los trabajadores de Amazon se quejan de mal trato y presión laboral, respaldando la afirmación negativa.
  • Source 2: Los legisladores dicen que los trabajadores de Amazon son heridos más que en otros trabajos, lo cual apoya la afirmación negativa.
  • Source 3: Aunque Bezos dice donar para proteger el medio ambiente, no deshace el daño supuesto citado en Source 4 y no aborda los problemas laborales, pero se podría considerar neutral o ligeramente a favor de la afirmación positiva por el intento de protección ambiental.
