to send an e-mail message_____(7) to send an or­dinary letter or a
«snail» message which also takes _____(8) longer. An e-mail message
is only_____(9) more expensive than a local telephone call to send; on top of

send a letter by_____(10) mail, it will take a couple of days to get there
whereas an

e-mail will not take_____(11) than a few seconds. Once you

When faced with some new and possibly bewilder­ing technological
change, most people react in one of two_____(1). They either recoil from anything
new, claiming that it is unnecessary, or too_____(2) or that it somehow makes
life less than_____(3 .Or they learn to_____(4) to the new invention, and
eventual­ly _____(5) how they could possibly have existed without it. _____(6)
computers as an example. For many of us, they still represent a_____(7) to our

freedom, and give us a frightening sense of a future in which
all_____(8) will be taken by machines. This may be because they seem
mysterious, and difficult to understand. Ask most people what you can_____(9) a
home computer for, and you usually get_____(10)answers
about how «they give you information». In fact, even those of us who
are familiar with com­puters and use them in our daily work, have very lit­tle
idea of how they _____(11). But it does not take long to learn how to operate a
business programme, even if things occasionally go wrong for no apparent
reason. Presumably much the same happened when the telephone and the television
became_____(12). What seems to alarm most people is the speed of

_____(13) change, rather than change itself. And the_____(14) that
are made to new technology may well have a point to them, since change is not
always an improvement. As we discover during power cuts, there is a lot to be
said for the oil lamp, the coal fire, and forms of entertainment, such as books
or board games, that don’t have to be_____(15) in to work.

look more and more_____(9) human beings, will have taken_____(10) a lot of the
boring ev­eryday _____(11) we do today. In the next five years, the Japanese
will have _____(12) a robot that understands human speech. This will_____(13) about
a big change in the way we live, and some people see robots as a_____(14) to
human free­dom. They are afraid that we will not be_____(15) to control them

blank. Use only one word in each blank.

FEED IN ENGLISH, PRINT OUT FRENCH

Once upon a time, according to a much-told story, a computer was
set the task of translat­ing «traffic jam» into French and back into
En­glish. The machine buzzed, clicked, blinked its lights and eventually came
up with «car-fla­voured marmalade». Machine translation has come a
long way_____(1) then. Computer trans­lation systems are now in_____(2) in many
parts

of the world.

Not surprisingly, the EEC is very _ _(3). With so many official
languages, translating and

interpreting take up_____(4) than fifty per cent of the
Community’s administrative budget. But although the efficiency of machine
translation is _____(5) rapidly, there is no question of_____(6) translators
being made redundant. On the con­trary, people and machines work together in
har­mony. Today’s computers_____(7) of little value in translating literary
works, where subtlety is vital, or the spoken word, which tends to be
un-grammatical, or important texts, where absolute _____(8) is essential. But
for routine technical reports, working papers and the like, which take up_____(9)
much of the translation workload of international organisations, computers are
likely to play an increasing_____(10). The method of

operation will probably be for the machine ton _____(11) a rough
version, which the translator

will then edit, correcting obvious_____(12), and where necessary
referring_____(13) to the orig­inal. If machines can translate languages, could
they_____(14) teach languages? Yes, say enthusiasts, although they doubt that
the teacher could ever be totally_____(15) by a machine in the classroom. Good
old teachers know best!

11. Put the verbs in brackets into the correct form.

WHAT CAN COMPUTERS DO?

Computers and microchips (l)(become) part of our everyday
lives: we visit shops and offices which (2)(design) with the help of
computers, we read magazines which (3)(produce) on computer, we pay
bills (4)(prepare) by computers. Just (5)(pick up) a telephone
and (6)(dial) a number involves the use of a sophisticated computer sys­tem,
as does (7)(make) a flight reservation or bank transaction.

We encounter daily many computers that spring to life the instant
they (8)(switch on) (e.g. calcula­tors, the car’s electronic ignition,
the timer in the microwave, or the programmer inside the TV set), all of which
use chip technology.

What makes your computer such a miracu­lous
device? Each time you (9)(turn) it on it is capable of (10)(do) anything
you ask. It is a (11)(calculate) machine that (12)(speed up) fi­nancial
calculations. It is a magical typewriter that (13)(allow) you to type
and print any kind of document — letters, memos or legal docu­ments. It is a
personal communicator that (14)(enable) you to interact with other
comput­ers and with people around the world. If you like gadgets and electronic
entertainment, you can even use your PC (15)(relax) with computer games.
