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 hut 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 wrong. Questions 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 help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills. [br] What is the main purpose of this passage?
选项
A、To look back to the early days of computer.
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.
答案
D
解析
本题为主旨大意题,提问的是作者写这篇文章的主要目的是什么。根据第一段第三句话“People tend to be over—trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their author—ity.”“人们过分信任计算机,也不愿意挑战它的权威”,第二段第一句话“...,but peopleshould also rely on their own internal computers and check t he machine when they havethe feeling that something has gone wrong.”“人们也应该依靠自己的头脑,在感觉有问题的时候进行检查”,以及文章最后一句话“...it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.”“计算机不能成为人类基本思维和推理能力的替代品”,可以看出,作者表达了一种担心,面对计算机,人们不愿意动脑子,思维上变得懒惰。因此选项D)符合文章意思,应为正确答案。
