1.Text 1Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to become computer literate, in othe words, to learn to understand computers and what make them tick. But not all experts agree, however, that this is a good idea.One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees is David Tebbutt, the founder of Gomputer-town UK. Although many people see it’that way. He says that Computer-town UK was formed for computer, but David does not see it that way. He says that Computer-town UK was formed for just the opposite reason to bring computer to the people and make them People-literate.David first got the idea when he visited one of America’s best-known computer gurufigures Bob Albrecht, who had started a project called Computer-town USA in the local library.Over here, in Britain, Computer-towns have taken off in a big way, and there are now about 40 scattered, over the country. David Tebbutt thinks they are most successful when tied to a computer club. He insists there is a vast and important difference between the two, although they complement each other. The clubs cater for the enthusiasts, with some computer knowledge already, who get together and eventually form an expert computer group. This frightens away non-experts, known as grockles (游客) who are happier going to Computer-towns where there are computers available for them to experiment on, with experts available to encourage them and answer any question; they are not told what to do, they find out.David Tebbut finds it interesting to see the two different approaches working side by side. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to explain the answers to the questions that people really want to know. People are not having to learn computer jargon (行話), but the experts are having to translate computer mysteries into easily understood terms; the computers are becoming people--literate.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT wrong()
A.The computer experts should tell people everything about computers
B.David insisted that the computer clubs should open to all the people, including those non--experts
C.The foundation of computer town is a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer
D.It is unnecessarily for all the people to become computer-literate

6.Text 2There was great public interest when a big hole mysteriously appeared in the middle of a field. Army mechanics and engineers were called in to explain how it had got there. They orrered various explanations but were not at all sure how the hole had’been caused. It was thought that a large shell which must have lain buried under the ground for many years had suddenly exploded, but it was not possible to prove this.A simple, but highly improbable, explanation was offered by a man who claims to be especially well-informed about flying saucers the strange objects which are round in shape and are said to visit the earth occasionally from outer space. The man’s explanation may have been nonsense, but at least it was imaginative. At any rate, it was far more interesting than the one given by the army.After examing the ground carefully, the man claimed to have seen special marks on the soil quite near the hole. These, he said, could only have been caused by a flying saucer. Moreover, the leaves on some bushes nearby had turned yellow because of a strange hot gas which had come from the saucer just before it landed. Even a small tree some way off appeared to have been burnt slightly. A small piece of metal found in the hole itself provided further proof that a strange object had been there. According to the man, it was quite clear that people from another world had been circling the earth trying to pick up information, when something had gone wrong. Because of this they had been forced to land in a field so that the damage could be repaired. The hole had been caused when the saucer struck the earth, while the strange marks nearby were made when it took off again. This, said the man, was the simplest explanation of how the hole had appeared. Judging from the interest the public took in the matter, there must be quite a few people who secretly believe or hope that this simple explanation is the true one.It is implied but not directly state in the passage that()
A.the public took a great interest in the big mysterious hole
B.a(chǎn)rmy engineers and mechanics were not in the least certain how the hole had appeared
C.objects from outer space hold a special attraction, for many people
D.the man who claimed to be well-informed about flying saucers turned out to be a cheat
