into Chinese.,在我成长的房子里有一间屋子，我们把它称作图书馆。当然，那不是真正的图书馆，它仅仅是由电视机占据了主要位置的一间书斋。但是它四面墙上全部装修了嵌入式书架，上面摆了数百本书籍那些精装本的书籍呈现着各种颜色，它们在那间屋里把我们团团围住。这些书是我父母和祖父母花了毕生的精力收集来的，它们成为我童年的一部分。我这一代人即20世纪50和60年代成年的人可能是了解这种心情的最后一代人了，那种被上百万文字环绕着的感觉，那些文字是历代知名的和默默无闻的作家们的产品。当前，在20世纪70年代中期，我们正目睹一个不易觉察却毫无疑问存在的慢慢背离书籍这类事物的倾向。恐怕美国的家庭很快就不会再留出房间做图书馆了。精装的图书那思想永驻的象征，那从一个时代向下一个时代传留的智慧可能会添加到我们即将灭绝的物种名单上去。,Listening exercises,B.We are now living in an era of technology revolution.With the help of digital technologies and powerful networks,we are able to satisfy our thirst for information.But what will we do with all the information?Once we can plug into any information imaginable and become instant experts on any subject,humans may discover an increase in suicides,brain tumors and schizophrenia!Many problems concerning technology occur.Firstly,all the information is machine-readable only.This means that we must preserve all hardware,software and up-dates to these machines,the operating manuals and the skill to diagnose hardware and software problems,in order to preserve machine-readable formats.Secondly,more and more information will be stored on smaller and smaller devices.But capturing original material in machine-readable form is as labor intensive,and therefore as expensive,as preparing material for microfilming.,Thirdly,in order to preserve the means to access and to read machine-readable data,we will need substantial amounts of space,to house and maintain the machines and organizations necessary to key access and prevent them from becoming redundant and unreadable.Finally,the information preserved in digital formats is supposed to last forever,but,in fact,as systems are replaced by newer ones,previous digital formats need to be transferred to the new forms.If you fail to re-format,the information will no longer be readable by the machine.But it is the enormous amount and cost of re-formatting that will finally defeat us.,Unit 2 A Class Act,Text comprehensionI.B(A and
