In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early postwar era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic hut also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction.
Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong. Questions and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.
An "internal computer" is______.
选项
A、a computer uses exclusively by one computer for its own problems
B、a person’s store of knowledge and the ability to process it
C、the most up-to-date in-house computer a company can buy
D、a computer from the post-war era which is very reliable
答案
B
解析
本题为词汇语义题,提问的是第二段中的“internal computers”表示什么意思。单从字面意思理解“内部的计算机”显然不合理,根据上下文“...,but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling thatsomething has gone wrong.”,他们自己的computers,显然这里的computers与真正的计算机是不同的,再结合整篇文章的内容,这里的“internal computers”应该指人的头脑和思维,故选项B)为正确答案。
