"High tech" and "state-of-the-art" are two expressions that describe very modern technology. High tech is just a shorter way of saying high technology. And high technology describes any invention, system of device that uses the newest ideas or discoveries of science and engineering. What is high tech? A computer is high tech. So is a communications satellite. A modern manufacturing system is surely high tech. High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1980’ s. Because of improvements in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores, such as home computers, microwave ovens, etc.
"State-of-the-art" is something that is as modern as possible. It is a product that is based on the very latest methods and technology. Something that is "state-of-the-art" is the newest possible design or product of a business or industry. A state-of-the-art television set, for example, uses the most modern electronic design and parts. It is the best that one can buy.
"State-of-the-art" is not a new expression. Engineers have used it for years, to describe the best and most modern way of doing something. Millions of Americans began to use the expression in the late 1970’ s. The reason was the computer revolution. Every computer company claimed that its computers were "state-of-the-art".
Computer technology changed so fast that a state-of-the-art computer today might be old tomorrow. The expression "state-of-the-art" became common and popular as computers themselves. Now all kinds of products are said to be "state-of-the-art". [br] Which of the following statements is not true?
选项
A、Since the computer revolution, the expression " state-of-the-art" has become popular.
B、State-of-the-art means something that is the best one can buy.
C、With the rapid development of computer technology, a state-of-the-art computer may easily become out of date.
D、All kinds of products are "state-of-the-art" nowadays.
答案
D
解析
细节判断题,可采用排除法。文章最后一句提到“现在所有的产品都号称是最新产品”。而D项表达:现在所有的产品都是最新产品。虽然两句话只差said to be几个单词,但意思截然不同,“号称”、“据说”不能等同于“是”,故选项D错误。文章第三段第三、四句与选项A对应;第二段最后两句对应选项B;第四段第一句对应选项C。
