A Wonderful Chip
It is tiny, only about a quarter of an inch square, and quite flat. Under a microscope, it resembles a stylized Navaho rug or the aerial view of a railroad (51) yard. Like the (52) of sand on a beach, it is made mostly of silicon, (53) oxygen, the most abundant element on the surface of the earth.
Yet this inert fleck (小片), still unfamiliar to the (54) majority of Americans, has astonishing power. It is cheap to (55) produce, fast, infinitely versatile and convenient.
The miracle chip represents a quantum(重大的) (56) in the technology of mankind, a development that (57) the past few years has acquired the force and significance associated with the development of hand tools or the discovery of the steam engine. Just as the Industrial Revolution (58) an immense (59) of tasks from men’s (60) and enormously expanded productivity, (61) the microcomputer is rapidly assuming huge burdens of drudgery from the human brain and (62) expanding the mind’s capacities (63) that man has only begun to grasp. (64) the chip amazing feats of (65) become possible in everything from automobile engines to university laboratories and hospitals, from farms to banks and corporate offices, from outerspace to a baby’s nursery.
选项
A、therefore
B、thus
C、however
D、so
答案
D
解析
so此题属于语法题,just as…so…意为“正如……一样”,从属复合连词;根据原文内容,比较工业革命和计算机对人类的影响,前半个分句中出现了just as…,后半句就应是so与之连用,故选项D so正确。选项A therefore(因此),表因果;选项B thus副词,有“如此”之意,但不与just as连用,例如:We hope the new machine will work faster, thus reducing our costs. 选项C however表转折。
