电子计算机包括以下五个基本部分:
输入端:这部分将从各种装置获得的信息译成计算机懂得的电码。最初的计算机采用穿孔卡片送人输入端。现在,这样的卡片以及穿孔带仍在使用,但增补了其他方法,其中包括磁带、磁盘和磁鼓。
存储器:信息就贮存在这部分里以供计算机其他部分需要时使用。现代化计算机最常见的存储器是各种磁芯制成的。这种磁芯存储器正在被微型集成电路块上的半导体存储器所取代。
运算和逻辑部分:计算机依靠这部分来处理、指导、加工大量的信息。计算机在这里对数字和数据进行运算和操纵。
控制器:这是计算机的交通警,它使指令贮存在存储器中并对指令进行解释。它调节存
储器、运算和逻辑部分以及这些部分之间信息的流动。它还命令经过加工的数据从存储器移动到输出端。
输出端:这部分把经过加工的数据译成可以控制各式各样装置的电冲。这样,输出端可以采用文字或数字两种读出形式,显示在高速打字机上或明亮的阴极射线管上。

The Role the Computers Will Play in Our Four Modernizations
When the computers are widely used,we may have large numbers of computerized robots which make our lives easier.
Some of them, like the pocket calculator, can work much more quickly than human beings can. And they rarely make mistakes.
In some ways robots are better than people. They work quickly, but do not make mistakes. They do not get bored doing the same job over and over again. And they never get tired.
So robots are very useful in factories. They can be taught to do many different jobs. At first, their electronic brains must be shown how the job is done. A person moves the robot' s \\put to work on its own, its brain controls the rods, wheels and motors which move its arm. When the robot is needed for a new job, its electronic memory is \do its new task.
Robots are also used for doing jobs which are dangerous. They can move objects which are too hot or too heavy for people to handle. They can work in places which are too hot or too cold for people. And they are not affected by poisonous fumes or gases. In scientific research, they may be used for doing such jobs as handling radioactive materials.
In short, the computers will play an important role in our four modernizations. With their help, we will be relieved of tedious, hard or dangerous work and have more time for more challenging and valuable things or even for entertainment.
Lesson 8
An Interactive Life I .
1)An interactive life of the future will be extremely convenient and productive, and a huge amount of information will be available at the touch of a button, everything from airline schedules to esoteric scientific journals to video versions of Broadway.
2)Stepping into the past makes us well aware of the great difference between the past and the present. And the present will become the past of the future ,so we can imagine what the future will be.
3)Since anyone can record news with a video-camera and put it on the universal network for everybody else to see, there is no longer any need for news anchorman like Peter Jennings.
4)If you want to see a film, you don't need to rent a tape and play it on your VCR. Instead, you may pick one from the catalog shown on the TV and phone the library to have it beamed to you. Those game fans may do it in the same way by contacting another electronic library which has a large number of video tapes with recordings of the actual shootings and killings seen in video
game shops. Those who want to do shopping at home do not need to look through catalogs published by clothing companies. They may watch video catalogs with models displaying clothes of the newest fashion from various angles.
5)It is not considered genuine interactivity because it is not novel enough with but one step beyond passive viewing. It is still the traditional form of sitting on the couch watching.
6)That means a viewer has access to thousands of channels delivered through some combination of cable, telephone, satellite and cellular networks, which provide data from computer-based archives and information services.
7)Because a user might stand in front of a monitor receiver and just talk and listen, communicating with whatever or whomever some distance away.
8)It means an act or condition of moving towards the same place, result.
9)Because they were afraid its user would get one of Senator Proxmire's Golden Fleece awards.
10)Fibre optics will stop electronic highways from getting crowded and digitalization can translate all kinds of data into the simplest form of number and letter.
11) Intelligent agents are artificial devices which can solve problems, direct conduct by reasoning and which can function properly.
12)Because to build and maintain the information highway at present requires a large sum of money and a huge amount of other investment. II .
1)He imagined that the machine could record informal communication between departments in a company but other people thought it could be used to record music.
2)Since large sums of money have been spent on an idea which is mainly in the planning stage, since great hopes have been put on such an idea, there certainly is a lot of exaggerated publicity. 3)For example, you film a video which you think has special artistic pretensions.
4)-\will actually function.
5) another electronic Library which has a large number of video tapes with recordings of the actual shootings and killings available in video game shops
6) It is just one step beyond passive viewing. It is still the traditional form of sitting on the couch watching.
7)ordering films which you will pay for watching and getting bills piled up by doing shopping at home paying with creditcards
8)Future programs may be the technological descendants of today's CD-ROM discs.
9)\sounds impressive to outsiders while \place in frequency.
10)At Present, politicians starting from President Clinton all the way down to lower-level officials are eager and willing to state that they are for the new medium. 11)The solution to the problem is t0 use fiber optics? 12)Digits are digits.Digits are really wonderful?
13)Try to think what the conversation would be like:“I have got a user who will suit you fine!”
14)Interactivity may widen the gap between those people or nations with relatively much wealth or rich resources and those without.those who have access to the network and those who cannot afford to use the information highway?
