5、-trained as operators, programmers, and data preparation staff.

6、y of the firm, resulting from the introduction of computers. The attitudes of workers towards computers vary. There is fear of widespread unemployment and of the takeover of many jobs by computer-trained workers, making promotion for older workers not skilled in computers more difficult. On the othe

7、r hand, many workers regard the trend toward wider use of computers inevitable. They realize that computers bring about greater efficiency and productivity, which will improve the condition of the whole economy, and lead to the creation of more jobs.

8、me Minister, James Callaghan in 1979, when he made the point that new technologies hold the key to increased productivity, which will benefit the economy in the long run. 1 The unfriendly feeling towards computers is developed from_. （ A） the possible widespread unemployment caused by their introduc

14、dren happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction. The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on cooperation rather than competition throughout most of thi

15、s process.

Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as c

16、riminals， but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails.
