They【16】ei______refuse to accept anything new, claiming that it is unnecessary or too complicated or that it somehow makes life less than human. Or they learn to【17】ada______ to the new invention, and eventually wonder how they could possibly have existed without it.【18】T______ computers as an example.

This may be because they seem mysterious, and difficult to【21】und______. Ask most people what you use a home computer for, and you can usually get vague answers about how " they give you information".

But it does not take long to learn how to operate a business programme, even if things occasionally go【23】wr______for no apparent reason. Presumably much the same happened when the telephone and the television became widespread. What seems to alarm most people is the speed of【24】tec______change, rather than change itself. And the objections that are made to new technology may well have a point to them,【25】si______change is not always an improvement.
