Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to become "computer literate", in other words, to learn to understand computers and what make them tick. But not all experts agree, however, that this is a good idea.
One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees is David Tebbutt, the founder of Computer-town UK. Although many people see it that way. He says that Computer-town UK was formed for computer, but David does not see it that way. He says that Computer-town UK was formed for just the opposite reason to bring computer to the people and make them "People-literate".
David first got the idea when he visited one of America’s best-known computer "guru" figures Bob Albrecht, who had started a project called Computer-town USA in the local library.
Over here, in Britain, Computer-towns have taken off in a big way, and there are now about 40 scattered, over the country. David Tebbutt thinks they are most successful when tied to a computer club. He insists there is a vast and important difference between the two, although they complement each other. The clubs cater for the enthusiasts, with some computer knowledge already, who get together and eventually form an expert computer group. This frightens away non-experts, known as "grockles"(游客) who are happier going to Computer-towns where there are computers available for them to experiment on, with experts available to encourage them and answer any question; they are not told what to do, they find out.
David Tebbutt finds it interesting to see the two different approaches working side by side. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to explain the answers to the questions that people really want to know. People are not having to learn computer jargon(行话), but the experts are having to translate computer mysteries into easily understood terms; the computers are becoming "people—literate".
选项
A、The computer experts should tell people everything about computers
B、David insisted that the computer clubs should open to all the people, including those non—experts
C、The foundation of computer town is a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer
D、It is unnecessarily for all the people to become "computer-literate"
答案
D
解析
第一段指出,从事计算机工作的人们鼓吹其他人精通电脑的必要性,但并不是所有的专家都同意这种观点。即他们认为没有必要让所有的人都成为计算机专家。
