They are already widely used in industry and in universities and the time may come when it will be possible for ordinary people to use them as well. Computers are capable of doing extremely complicated work in all branches of teaming. They can solve the most complex mathematical problems or put thousands of unrelated facts in order. These machines can be put to different uses. For instance, they can provide information on the best way to prevent traffic accidents, or they can count the numbers of times the word “and” has been used in the bible. Because they work accurately and at high speeds, they save research workers years of hard work. This whole process by which machines can be used to work for us has been called automation. In the future, automation may enable human beings to enjoy far more leisure than they do today. 56. advanced 57. avert 58. calculate 59. commonly 60. example 3 i 61. mankind : 62. normal f 63. not linked 64. precisely 65. various Read the passage and choose the correct answers: (66-70) ‘Thousands of persons fall prey to some type of cancer every year, but new methods of radiation therapy have enabled doctors to save more lives than ever before.
