单选题What time is it now?

单选题The majority of people, about nine out of ten, are right-handed. (26) until recently, people who were left-handed were considered (27) , and once children showed this tendency they were forced to use their right hands. Today left-handedness is generally (28) , but it is still a disadvantages in a world (29) most people are right-handed. For example, most tools and implements are still (30) for right- handed people. In sports (31) contrast, doing things with the left hand or foot, is often an advantage. Throwing, kicking, punching or batting from the (32) side may result in throwing (33) many opponents who are more accustomed to dealing with the (34) of players who are right-handed. This is why, in many (35) at a professional level, a (36) proportion of players are left-handed than in the population as a whole. The word "right" in many languages means "correct" or is (37) with lawfulness, whereas the words associated (38) "left", such as "sinister", generally have (39) associations.

单选题 Hardly a week goes by without some advance in technology that would have seemed in- credible 50 years ago. And we can expect the rate of change to accelerate rather than slow down within our lifetime. The developments in technology are bound to have a dramatic effect on the future of work. By 2010, new technology will have revolutionized communications. People will be transmitting messages down telephone lines that previously would have been sent by post. Not only postmen but also clerks and secretaries will vanish in a paper-free society. All the routine tasks they perform will be carried on a tiny silicon chip so that they will be as obsolete as the horse and cart after the invention of the motor car. One change will make thou-sands, if not millions, redundant. Even people in traditional professions, where expert knowledge has been the key, are unlikely to escape the effects of new technology. Instead of going to a solicitor, you might go to a computer which is programmed with all the most up-to-date legal information. Doctors, too, will find that an electronic competitor will be able to carry out a much quicker and more accurate diagnosis and recommend more efficient courses of treatment. In education, teachers will be largely replaced by teaching machines far more knowledgeable than any human being. Most learning will take place in the home via video conferencing. Children will still go to school though, until another place is created where they can make friends and develop social skills. What can we do to avoid the threat of unemployment? We shouldn't hide our heads in the sand. Unions will try to stop change but they will be fighting a losing battle. People should get computer literate as this just might save them from professional extinction. After all, there will be a few jobs left in law, education and medicine for those few individuals who are capable of writing and programming the software of the future. Strangely enough, there will still be jobs like rubbish collection and cleaning as it is tough to programme tasks which are largely unpredictable.
