The three biggest lies in American are: (1)" The check is in the mail." (2)" Of course I' 11 respect you in the morning." (3)" It was a computer error."
Of these three little white lies, the worst of the lot by far is the third. It' s the only one that can never be true. Today, if a bank statement cheats you out of $900 that way, you know what the clerk is sure to say:" It was a computer error." Nonsense. The computer is reporting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.
The most irritating case of all is when the computerized cash register in the grocery store shows that an item costs more than it actually does. If the innocent buyer points out the mistake, the checker, bagger, and manger all come together and offer the familiar explanation:" It was a computer error."
It wasn't, of course. That high-tech cash register is really nothing more than an electric eye. The eye reads the Universal Product Code-that ribbon of black and white lines in a comer of the package-and then checks the code against a price list stored in memory. If the price list is right, you' I1 be charged accurately.
Grocery stores update the price list each day-that is, somebody sits at a keyboard and types in the prices. If the price typed in is too high, there are only two explanations: carelessness or dishonesty. But somehow" a computer error" is supposed to excuse everything.
One reason we let people hide behind a computer is the common misperception that huge, modem computers are" electric brains" with" artificial intelligence." At some point there might be a machine with intelligence, but none exists today. The smartest computer on Earth right now is no more" intelligent" than your average screwdriver. At this point in the development of computers, the only thing any machine can do is what a human has instructed it to do.
We are told that a high-tech cash register is really just______.
A．an electric instrument of sight.
B．a simple adding machine.
C．a way to keep employees honest.
D．an expensive piece of window dressing.

There are three kinds of goals : short-term , medium-range and long-term goals.
Short-range goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possible months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, our long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals bulked (延伸) on the foundation of the short-range goals. They might deal with just one-term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.
Long-range goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static (静止的) thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
Our long-term goals mean a lot______.
A．if we complete our short-range goals
B．if we cannot reach solid short-term goals
C．if we write down the dates
D．if we put forward some plans
