WHY I DISLIKE COMPUTERS
Almost everyone says that computers are wonderful and that they are changing our own lives for the better by making everything faster and more reliable, but I am not so much sure that this is the case
(6)to make our purchases, but it was quite clear that none out of the assistants knew what to They were not allowed to take our money and give to customers a written receipt, because the sales would not then have been recorded on the computer system In the end, like with many other people, I left my shopping on the counter and walked out Don't you think so that's ridiculous? It would never have happened before computers, and that, for me, is all the problem: we are beginning to depend on these machines for so completely that we simply cannot manage without them anymore

Part IV: Read the following passage, choose the best answers, and write them in the box below. (8 points)
CONSERVATION- OR WASTED EFFORT?
The black robin is one of the world's rarest birds It is a small, wild bird, and it lives only on the island of Little Manger off the coast of New Zealand In 1967, there were about fifty black robins there; in 1977 there were fewer than ten There are only black robins left in the world The island has many other birds, of course, of different kinds, large and small; these seem to multiply very happily
Energetic steps are being taken to preserve the black robin- to guard those remaining and to increase their number Detailed studies are going on, and a public appeal for money has been made The idea is to buy another island nearly as a special home, a "reserve", for threatened wild life, including black robins The organizers say that Little Manger should then be restocked with the robin's food- it eats only one kind of seed-and so renewed for it Thousands of required plants are at present being cultivated in New Zealand The public appeal is aimed at the conscience of mankind, so that the wild black robin will not die out and disappear from the earth in our time at least
Is all this concern a waste of human effort? Is it any business of ours whether the black robin survives or dies out? Are we losing our sense of what is reasonable and what is unreasonable?
In the earth's long, long past hundreds of kinds of creatures have evolved, risen to a degree of success- and died out In the long, long future there will be many new and different forms of life Those creatures that adapt themselves successfully to what the earth offers will survive for a long time Those that fail to meet the challenges will disappear early That is Nature's proven method of operation
(8)You may take it as another rule that when, at last, man shows signs of dying out; no other creature will extend a paw to postpone his departure On the contrary, he will be hurried out; for Nature, though fair, is a hard-heard mistress She has no favorites
Life seems to have grown too tough for black robins I leave you to judge whether we should try to anything about it
1. The black robin is dying out mainly because a people have been very careless about its survival b its only food is becoming exhausted on Little Manger c the other birds on the island have destroyed it
d the appeal for money has come at the wrong time
2. The success of the other small birds on Little Manger shows that a the island cannot have very much food left
b something has to die out, they cannot all be winners c the big birds have all been attacking the black robin d the black robin has failed to meet the challenges of life
3. As regard selection and survival, the decisive factor seems to be a the ability to adapt to changed and changing conditions
b the number of wild life reserves that are available.· c the concern and generosity of the public
d the size of the home or the amount of space one has to live in 4. The evidence seems to suggest that
a it is a disaster for every one when one kind of bird dies out b all creatures are concerned about the survival of others c Nature expects and accepts the dying out of weaker breeds d man is to blame when such a ting happens
