This is not the world we know.This world is controlled by computers.Men and women can be seen,but they are following orders given to them by machines.The machines were designed by mad scientists,but at some point even the mad scientists were taken over by their super-inventions.
Does this sound familiar?You have probably read something like it in magazines or books,or seen it in a film.Why is it popular?One of the reasons is that it reflects the fears of many people; fear of the unknown,fear of what is not understood or,at least,fear of something that is not completely understood.
The fact is that every day it seems that computers take control of another area of our lives.Some factory jobs are now done by robots(机器人)and the robots are controlled by computers.Our bank accounts are managed by computers.At the airport,our tickets are sold by a computer.Certainly many of these operations are made more efficient by computers,but our admiration is sometimes mixed with unsafe feelings.And this lack of safety is caused by the fact that we do not know how computers do these things,and we really don’t know what they might do next.
But we can find out how computers work,and once we understand them,we can use computers instead of worrying about being used by them.Today,there is a new generation of computer wizards(奇才) who know exactly how computers get things done.These young men and women,usually university students,are happy to sit for hours,sometimes for days,designing programs,not eating,not sleeping,.But discovering what can be done by these wonderful slaves which they have learned to control.These computer wizards have learned to use the computer and search for new tasks for their machine.
1.We can know that the scientists who designed the machines _______.
a.are careless in their daily life
b.are unkind and cruel
c.are out of their mind
d.have great abilities
2.The reason why many people are afraid of computers is that _______.
a.they don’t know anything about computers
b.they haven’t really understood computers
c.there are so many computer games
d.computers are often down
3.The author mentions computer wizards in order to point to that _______.
a.computers can be controlled by man
b.there should be more people devoted to computers
c.only young people are interested in computers
d.more time and energy is required to control computers

自己思考题目
我帮你翻译:
这是不是世界,我们知道。这个世界是计算机控制。男人和女人可以看出,但它们以下命令给他们的机器。机器设计的疯狂科学家,但在某个时刻,甚至疯狂的科学家接管了其超发明的。
这是否耳熟?你可能已经看过的东西一样,它在杂志或书籍,或见过它在电影中。它为什么受欢迎?其中一个原因是,它反映了恐惧,很多人害怕未知,害怕的是什么并不了解,或者至少恐惧的东西,这是不完全的了解。
事实是,它每天都好像电脑控制的另一个值得注意的地方,我们的生活。一些工厂工作,现在所做的机器人(机器人)和机器人控制的计算机。我们的银行账户的管理是由计算机。在机场上,我们的门票售出一部电脑。当然,还有很多的这些行动是更有效率的电脑,但我们敬佩的是,有时混有不安全的感觉。和这种缺乏安全所造成的事实是,我们不知道怎样的电脑做这些事情,我们真的不知道这是什么,他们可能会在明年。
但我们可以看看有多少电脑工作,一旦我们理解他们,我们可以用电脑,而不是担心被人利用。今天,是新一代的电脑奇才队(奇才)的人确切地知道电脑如何将事情办妥。这些年轻男性和女性,通常是大学的学生,高兴地坐了几个小时,有时一连几天,设计节目,而不是吃饭,不睡觉。但是发现有什么可以做的事,这些美好的奴隶,他们已经学会控制。这些电脑奇才,学会使用电脑,并寻找新的任务,他们的机器。
