Although machines have been around for a long time and people have adapted easily to livin

g with most of them, they haven't yet learned how to live in harmony with the newest of these: the personal computer. 【B1】This is so because the widespread use of the personal computer is a relatively new phenomenon.

There was the widely publicized case of a family man who became so absorbed in his computer that he spent long hours with it. 【B2】Of course, if he was spending long hours with his computer, he was spending less time with his family. And if his wife needed to see him, he was unavailable. She became so upset by this state of affairs that she delivered an ultimatum (最后通牒), declaring that unless he spent fewer hours with the machine and more with her and the family, she was going to divorce him. This issue became so serious that the couple had to go to a doctor to resolve it. 【B3】The fortunate result was that the husband reduced the time he spent with the computer, and the marriage was saved.

【B4】Personal computers may cause people to become isolated from one another since work can be done at home alone. In this case, there may be no need for offices, or for that matter, for any other central gathering place. Universities, or even cities, could be abandoned. Moreover, if what is now recorded on paper is recorded in the computer instead, people will have no reason to use any paper whatsoever: no money, receipts, letters, newspapers, magazines, books, and so on. 【B5】If this happens, there will be no need to go to the bank, the bookstore, or the library. Will people then be isolated in their separate homes-alone with their computers and their families, apart from fellow workers, readers, or students?

This is so because the widespread use of the personal computer is a relatively new phenomenon.

Vending machines (自动售货机) sell many different kinds of things. Some of them sell cold drinks like coke or orange juice, or hot drinks like coffee or tea. Others sell sweets, stamps, tickets, newspapers, and other small things. In some cities, vending machines are even used to sell a lot of hot meals.

These machines have been welcomed for two reasons. They save (节省) time and they are convenient (方便的). Things sold in vending machines need no shop assistant or cashier. In many places people can use the machines at any time of day or night, and they can find vending machines everywhere.

Although there are many different sizes and kinds of vending machines, they all work in nearly the same way. People put money into the machine and then open a door to receive what they buy. Some machines will also return change to the people, and a few will even give change to paper notes. But the idea is the same. People like to save time and are usually willing to pay a higher price for this convenience.

Many vending machines are used in China.

C.Doesn't Say

听力原文: When he first heard the news on the radio, Charles could hardly believe it. He had been told by some friends to expect what happened, but still, he just couldn't accept it. He had spent too many years perfecting his trade to think that the time would come when machines would replace him and his skills.

That was the news that struck his ears early on that morning five months ago when the announcement came. The company was going to install machines and save thousands of dollars in production costs. Unfortunately, for Charles it meant that his job was going to be abolished.

At first he had thought it was humiliating to be replaced by a machine. But, now, months later, he felt relieved that his skills were not lost, but, instead, valuable enough to be placed in a computer! Those skills were still producing useful products for people, and now his job was to supervise rather than do the work himself.

Charles had, as they say, "moved up in the world". He was no longer a worker; he was a manager!

(26)

A.The news that machines would replace him and his skills.

B.The news that he had to learn new skills.

C.The news that the company was going to reduce the number of machines.

D.The news that he was no longer a worker.

Back to the shop floorot Attwood, Chief Executive of Attwood Publicity, has attracted the
attention of his industry by going to work in one of the company's packaging facilities for two months. Why has ha done this? 'Definitely not for marketing purposes,' he says. 'Though I know that other people in my position have done that. My background's in finance rather than the operational side -and I must admit that I feel a bit out of touch. So what I'm interested in is getting to know the people working in an important part of the business.'

Attwood's packaging facility is unusual in that the number of manual workers there is double that in similar companies. Attwood has a reputation for innovation, which explains why, although some extremely up-to- date machinery has just been installed, the majority of the work is still done by hand. Traditional machines simply cannot process certain brochures and other products quickly and cheaply enough.

At first, Attwood was embarrassed by his lack of speed in comparison with the other workers. Now he feels he is beginning to catch up. He had thought that money was the main motivation and that payment by results was the best way of ensuring quick and efficient work. He now realises that while factors such as the type of background music being played have some short-term effect on speed, most workers keep up with other people simply in order to ensure an efficient style. that works for everybody.

Attwood was confident at the start that the work would allow him to experience problems directly for himself. Now, after seven weeks, however, he realises that the most useful knowledge comes from listening to others, learning about their years of experience - and being able to ask questions.

He is also pleased that any early coldness shown towards him has now disappeared and most workers feel confident that he takes their work seriously. They also now feel that they can be honest with him. Attwood has listened to complaints about Iow wages and the fact that management are seen to have more flexibility than workers and more opportunities for promotion. The workers' openness has already had results. Vacancies have started to be displayed throughout the company and interested staff of all levels are encouraged to apply.

As the two-month period approaches its end, Attwood feels 'amazingly positive' about the experience: 'I've had to think more about how and why we do things than I've done for years,' 'he says.

Why did Attwood decide to work in one of his company's packaging facilities?

A.to gain publicity for the company

B.to make contact with the workforce

C.to look for ways of controlling costs

听力原文: We are now living in a world in which robots are taking over much of the work.Robots make our cars, fly our planes and work out wages.

But these robots are not mechanical men and women.They do not look like us.They are machines specially built to do some of the things that human beings can.

Although they may not look like us,robots need some human features in order to be able to do human work.First of all they need some kind of brain.Their "brain" is a computer,which has a memory to human member instructions and ability to control other equipment.Another essential feature of many robots is an arm that can do the kind of things that human beings can with their arms.One-armed robots are now coming into widespread use in industry.They are being used,for example,on car assembly lines.

The great advantage of robots over human workers is that they can work non-stop for long periods. They never get tired,and always work with the same accuracy.They can also work in conditions that humans could not bear.Last but not least,as more robots are built,their cost will come down.

Although robots are rapidly taking over many jobs in industry, they seem a long way from taking over in the home. The problem is that it would take a very complex and costly robot to perform. half the tasks involved in housework.

According to the speaker,what can the present-day robots do?

A.Drive cars.

B.Fly planes.

C.Pay wages.

D.Repair machines.
