Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 40 Technology has been an encouragement of

31、 historical change. It acted as such a force in England beginning in the eighteenth century, and across the entire Western World in the nineteenth. Rapid advances were made in the use of scientific findings in the manufacture(制造 ) of goods, which has changed ideas about work. One of the first change

32、s was that other forms of energy have taken the place of human power. Along with this came the increased use of machines to manufacture products in less time. People also developed machines that could produce the same parts for a product: each nail was exactly like every other nail, meaning that eac

33、h nail could be changed for every other nail. This means that goods could be mass produced, though mass production required breaking production down into smaller and smaller tasks. Once this was done, workers no longer started on the product and labored to complete it. Instead, they might work only

34、one thousandth of it, other workers completing their own parts in certain order. There is nothing strange about this manufacturing work by todays standards. Highly skilled workers were unable to compare with the new production techniques, as mass production allowed goods of high standard to be produ

35、ced in greater number than could ever be done by hand. But the skilled worker wasnt the only loser, the common workers lost too. Similar changes forced farmers away. The increased mechanization(机械化 ) of agriculture freed masses of workers from ploughing the land and harvesting its crops. They had li

36、ttle choice but to stream toward the rapidly developing industrial centers. Increasingly, standards were set by machines. Workers no longer owned their own tools, their skill was no longer valued, and pride in their work was no longer possible. Workers fed, looked after and repaired the machines tha

37、t could work faster than humans at greatly reduced cost. 41 In this passage, which of the following is NOT considered as a change caused by the use of scientific findings in the production of goods? （ A） Other forms of energy have taken the place of human power. （ B） The increased exploitation of wo

38、rkers in the 19th century. （ C） The increased use of machines to make products in less time. （ D） The use of machines producing parts of the same standard. 42 The underlined word “this“ in the first paragraph refers to_. （ A） the use of scientific findings （ B） the practice of producing the same par

39、ts for a product （ C） the human power being replaced by other forms of energy （ D） the technology becoming the encouragement of historical change 43 The underlined word “this“ in the second paragraph refers to the change that_. （ A） each nail could be taken the place of by every other nail （ B） each

40、 nail was exactly like every other nail （ C） producing tasks became smaller and smaller （ D） goods could be mass produced 44 According to the writer, highly skilled workers_. （ A） completely disappeared with the coining of the factory system （ B） were dismissed by the boss （ C） were unable to produc

41、e goods of high standard （ D） were unable to produce fine goods at that same speed as machines 45 According to the passage, what did the farmers have to do with the coming of mechanization of agriculture? （ A） Many of them had to leave their farmland for industrial centers. （ B） They stuck to their

42、farm work. （ C） They refused to use machines. （ D） They did their best to learn how to use the machines. 45 “We are not about to enter the Information Age, but instead are rather well into it.“ Present predictions are that by 1990, about thirty million jobs in the United States, or about thirty perc

43、ent of the job market, will be computer-related. In 1980, only twenty-one percent of all American high schools owned one or two computers for student use. In the fall of 1985, a new study showed that half of United States secondary schools have fifteen or more computers for student use. And now educ

44、ational experts, administrators, and even the general public are demanding that all students become “computer-literate“. By the year 2000 knowledge of computers will be necessary in over eighty percent of all occupations. Soon those people not educated in computer use will be compared to those who a

45、re print-illiterate today. What is “computer literacy“? The term itself seems to imply some degree of “knowing“ about computers, but knowing what? The present opinion seems to be that this should include a general knowledge of what computers are, plus a little of their history and something of how t

46、hey operate. Therefore, it is important that educators everywhere take a careful look not only at what is being done, but also at what should be done in the field of computer education. Today most adults are able to use a motor car without the slightest knowledge of how the internal combustion engin

47、e (内燃机 ) works. We effectively use all types of electrical equipment without being able to tell their histories or to explain how they work. Business people for years have made good use of typewriters and adding machines, yet few have ever known how to repair them. Why, then, attempt to teach comput

48、ers by teaching how or why they work? Rather, we first must fix our mind on teaching the effective use of the computer as the tool is. “Knowing how to use a computer is whats going to be important. We dont talk about automobile literacy. We just get in our cars and drive them.“ 46 In 1990, the numbe

49、r of jobs having nothing to do with computers in the United States will be reduced to_. （ A） 79 million （ B） 100 million （ C） 30 million （ D） 70 million 47 The underlined part “print-illiterate“ in the text refers to_. （ A） one who has never learnt printing （ B） one who has never learnt to read （ C） one who is not a computer literate （ D） one who is not able to use a typewriter 48 What is the
