When a firm introduces computers, a few people are usually employed in key posts (such as jobs of operations managers) while other staff are re-trained as operators, programmers, and data preparation staff.(78) ng from the introduction of computers.
The attitudes of workers towards computers vary. There is fear of widespread unemployment and of the takeover of many jobs by computer-trained workers, making promotion for older workers not skilled in computers more difficult.On the other hand, many workers regard the trend toward wider use of computers inevitable.

【答案】A它讲人们对于计算机的不友好的感情是来自于哪里。这个题目其实很简单,为什么呢?首先我们说它是一个细节题,细节题它的答案就在我们这个短文的第一句话,也就是我们在这篇文章开始下画线让我们翻译的句子,你只要把这个句子理解了,答案就很容易选择了。请大家看这篇文章的第一句话,它是这样讲的,它说Much unfriendly feeling towards computers has been based on the fear of widespread unemployment resulting from their introduction。我们来看这一句话,它的意思是说人们对于计算机的不友好的感觉,很大一部分来自于人们害怕由于计算机的使用会导致大范围的失业。根据这样的意思我们很容易就可以判断出这个题目的答案是A。实际上A选项只不过就是把我们这句话重新进行了一下表述,而且这个表述只不过是把这个短语 resulting from 换成了caused by their,这是第6题,所以说是比较简单的。A. the possible widespread unemployment caused by theirintroductionB. their use as part of automated production systemsC. the least possible number of operatorsD. the production system in steelworks 7.
