READING (20 ms) Read this magazine article and do the exercises that follow. THE FUTURE OF COMPUTERS 1 It is becoming more and more difficult to imagine what our life would be like without computers. They have become essential everywhere: air travel depends on them, the publication of books and magazines depends on them, most communication systems cannot function without them. Computer chips even control your fridge, ___________________ (A). 2 Computers can already recognize people’s voices, fingerprints and even eyes. They can make calculations a million times faster than the human brain. They can store vast amounts of information and “remember” it within seconds. They can read out texts for people with eyesight problems. _____________________ (B) They can produce films, music and artwork. They can play chess and defeat human chess champions. 3 Still, computers are not able to think creatively and cannot feel. They depend on human programmers and, although they can evaluate information according to logical rules, these rules have to be programmed into them. No computer is capable of having an original thought, ______________________________ (C). 4 However, the processing power of computers is doubling every 12 months. In thirty years’ time, an average home computer will be as powerful as 1,000 human brains. This will give people the opportunity to use computers to do more and more of the jobs that only humans can do at present and might mean an easier life for all of us. On the other hand, it is highly likely that by then, ___________________________ (D). The machines of the future will be able to think and feel just as humans do: they will be able to feel happy or sad and to express their thoughts and feelings whenever they want to. 6 5 People will be able to scan their brains into computers so that the machines of the future ______________________ (E) but not human bodies. And it is possible that they will feel the need for a body and, as a result, become sad and depressed. There is no knowing what they might choose to do then, but we can only hope it will be for the best. I. Match these headings with the paragraphs of the article: (10 marks) a Computers in the future b Worries about the future c What computers can already do d Computers are everywhere e What computers cannot do yet II. Now put each of these phrases in the right place in the article.
