Now satellites are helping to forecast（预报）the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of

the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the

world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.

Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive

new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比较）them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too.

In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.

So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists

could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead.

B after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier ones

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 but 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 awry. Questioning 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 the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.

1. What is the main purpose of this passage?

A. To look back to the early days of computers.

B. To explain what technical problems may occur with computers.

C. To discourage unnecessary investment in computers.

D. To warn against a mentally lazy attitude towards computers.

2. According to the passage, initial concerns about computers were that they might_____

A. lead us into the post-war era B. be quite widespread

C. take control D. take over routine tasks

3. The passage recommends those dealing with computers to_____

A. be reasonably skeptical about them B. check all their answers

C. substitute them for basic thinking D. use them for business purposes only

4. An “internal computer” is_____

A. a computer uses exclusively by one company 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

5. The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computers is_____

A. challenging B. psychological C. dramatic D. malfunctioning
