The Development of Computers

1. The first computers used thousands of separate elec­trical components connected together with wires. In the late 1940s, computers were made using vacuum tubes1, resistors, and diodes. These computers were called first generation computers.

2. In 1956, transistors were invented. Transistors are made from materials called semiconductors. Computers using transistors were called second generation com­puters. Second generation computers were smaller than first generation computers. Second generation computers also used less electrical power. Both first and second gen­eration computers were very expensive.

3. Computer components (such as transistors, diodes, resistors) can now be made from semiconductor mate­rials of different shapes. Nowadays, complete circuits can be made from a single piece of semiconductor, called a chip. Such circuits are called integrated circuits2 (ICs).

4. Computers using integrated circuits were first produced in the 1960s. They were known as third genera­tion computers. Their integrated circuits had about 200 components on a single chip. Today, we can produce more than 100,000 components on a single chip. A chip can be as small as 0.5 cm square.

5. With the invention of chips, computer manufacture has become much simpler. The manufacturer does not have to connect thousands of components together. Most of the connections are made inside the chip. It is even possible to build a complete in a single chip. A processor on single is called a microprocessor.

Robots — the Ideal Workers?

1. We hear many complaints about work in factories; the work is often "boring, heavy and repetitive; the operative1 doesn't have to think about the work; he gets no job satisfaction.

2. The answer is a robot. For many jobs a robot is much better than human operative. Once it has been program­med, it will do its job over and over again. It never gets bored; it works at a constant speed; it doesn't make mistakes; its work is always of the same standard; it doesn't get tired; it can work 24 hours a day without breaks for food, rest or sleep.

3. Robots have other advantages, too. They are designed to do almost any job. You can't change the human body, but a robot's arms, for example, can be made to move in any direction. Robots also do very heavy work and they can operate in conditions that are too.dangerous, too hot or too cold for people to work in. They work under water, in poisonous gas and in radioactive areas.

4. It is obvious that robots have many advantages over human beings. However, it is also true that humans can do many things that robots can't. For example, humans can carry out a task without having to be told exactly how to do it first — in other words, they don't always have to be programmed.

5. Humans can move, but robots are usually fixed in one place. If they are able to move, robots do it only in a very limited way. Unlike robots, people can know whether what they are doing is good or bad, and whether it is boring or interesting. Also robots are only just beginning to be able to understand speech and writing, but humans communicate easily with each other by these methods, and by many others — telephone, drawing, radio, and so on — as well.

6. And we should not forget that robots owe their existence2 to humans—we make them, repair them and control them, not the other way round.

Пояснения к тексту:

1. the operative – зд. – рабочий

2. to owe one’s existence – быть обязанным своим существованием.

8. Прочитайте 5, 6 абзацы текста, письменно ответьте на вопрос.

What allows us to say that the robots owe their existence to humans?

Moscow, the heart of Russia

1. Founded in 1147 by Prince Yury Dolgoruky, Moscow has become the largest political, administrative, economic and cultural centre, the railway, highway and international airway crossroads. Moscow is the seat of the Russian Government, one of the world’s cultural, scientific and art centres, the seat of the academy of Sciences of Russia. Moscow has a great number of historical and architectural monuments that should be carefully preserved.

2. Moscow is more than 850 years old, but never before has our capital seen such a scale of construction as has been performed in recent years. Alongside housing, much is to be done in the next years for the further development of cultural and educational institutions, health services, trade, communal and other services.

3. A major feature of Moscow’s development is the establishment of the industries requiring highly - skilled labour, and the branches producing high - quality consumer goods, as well as the development of plasma, laser, electron-beam and other promising technologies. Much attention is also paid to the reconstruction of the industrial facilities which already exist. The successful implementation of the plan will provide for the comprehensive economic and social development of the capital.

4. Transport is a serious problem for all large cities in the world. The capitals of the major capitalist states are often unable to solve this problem. Moscow has also a transport problem. The territory of the capital has expanded in the last few years and with it came the large - scale migration of the population.

5. Roads constitute another aspect of the transport problem. Having taken the decision to reconstruct many of the existing streets and to build new roads we have already started the construction of new roads, which will link several of the city’s districts between the Moscow Circular Highway and the Sadovoye Ring Road.
