问题     Science and technology are productive forces. The scientific and technological revolution has played a very important role in the high-speed development of the economies of western countries including the United States since the war.
    Right before the end of the war, the U. S. got remarkable achievement in the three fields of atomic energy, electronic computers and space navigation. These three great inventions were applied to civil industries in the postwar period, which has led to the third great scientific and technological revolution in man’ s history. It was originated(开始)from the U. S. and it benefited the U. S. most.
    The first computer came into being in 1945 and in the same year, the first atom bomb was tested. Soon after the first man-made earth satellite of the Soviet Union was sent into the sky in 1957, the U. S. launched her earth satellite into the orbit. Then the U. S. started an unprecedented(空前的)Apollo program, with the aim of sending man to the moon within a decade. The project was successfully carried out and in 1969, for the first time in man’ s history, two human beings landed on the moon. It was the most striking triumph in the twentieth century.
    Science has been greatly responsible for the rise on big business, as it has given industry certain technological advances, such as assembly-line production. Since World War II, the computer has produced major changes in our way of doing things. Computers have also helped social scientists to take a more experimental view of humans and their universe.
Which of the following statement is NOT true?
选项 A、The Soviet Union first sent man-made satellite into the space.
B、The U. S. first sent human to the moon.
C、The first computer was made in 1945.
D、Computers can help social scientists do experiments in the universe.
答案D
解析 第四段最后一句提到“电脑帮助社会科学家对人类和宇宙采取一种更加实验性的观点”，故D排除。从第三段“Soon after the first man—made earth satellite of the Soviet Union was sent into the sky in 1957”可知A正确。从第三句“Then the U．S．star—ted…landed on the moon．”可知B正确。从第一句“The first computer came into beingin 1945”可知C正确。
