Please deposit (将硬币投入)sixty cents for the first three minutes.If you are placing the call in New York State, dont try to ask the operator a question. There is no one on the line with you. The voice you hear comes from a computer. It has a vocabulary of seventy words in its memory. This program is known as the Automatic Coin Telephone Service.The words and numbers are first recorded by an actress. The sounds are then changed into electronic signals and stored in a computer memory circuit (线路). The circuit is hooked(连接) into the computer that controls all the calls made from pay telephones.While you dial your call, the computer senses each of the numbers. When you finish, it calculates(计算) the cost, and produces the voice that you hear. As soon as you deposit the money, the computer automatically connects your call.Have you ever called information and heard an operator say:Information. May I help you?You tell the operator a name and he or she gives you the phone number. In the past, the operator would have to thumb through(翻阅) the telephone directory to look up the number. Now, a new computer system provides this information much more quickly. Sometimes it can find the number even if you misspell the name.Information operators who use this new system type in the name you give on the computer terminal. In a flash, the computer displays the name and telephone number on the CRT. At the same time, the computer calls up nine similar names. In case you spelled the name wrong, the operator may still be able to find it.All new phones are also entered into this computer system. The information operators, therefore, have the up-to-the-minute (最新的)listings. At the end of the year, the computer is hooked into a machine that automatically sets the type for the new telephone directory. The directory is then printed from this type accurately, quickly, and at a great saving in cost.76.

The Scots loved their country. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland. But there were too many of the Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. We will rest here tonight, my men, he said. Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win, or we will die.They were all very tired. So they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they were very tired, and one by one they fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they went up the hill. Closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle. He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a minute they were on their feet and ready for a battle. The fighting was hard, but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out (消灭) the Romans and saved Scotland.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles (刺) all over it. Few people liked it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.81. Hundreds of years ago, the Romans _ .A. came from the north of England to fight the ScotsB. came from the north through England to make war on ScotlandC. came to the north from the south of Britain to fight the ScotsD. came to the north from England to make war on Scotland82.

Because of this, the vocabulary of the English language is very large. It is much larger than almost any other language in the world.Many English words came from Latin, the old language of Rome, and Greek. From Latin we get words like wine, use and day. From Greek we have words such as photograph, bible(圣经) and ink. Because these two languages are extinct (过时的), the words have more often come through other languages such as French, or the old German language. There are also words from both Greek and Latin combined-television, for example, tele is Greek for far and vision comes from Latin meaning seeing.Many common English words came from other different places. Tea is from China, banana from west Africa. Potato from the island of Haiti (海地) in the West Indies (西印度群岛), and tomato from Mexico. One reason why the English language came from different languages is that many nations had invaded (侵略)Britain before. Two thousand years ago Romans came from Italy, and stayed for over four hundred years. After they left, came the Anglos (盎格鲁人), Saxons (撒克逊人) and Jutes(朱特人) from the northern part of Germany. In the ninth and tenth centuries Scandinavians (斯堪的纳维亚人) invaded the northern and eastern parts of the country. Finally, in the eleventh century William of Normandy (诺曼底) came from France, and became the King of England. Thus the French civilization (文明) and the French language were introduced into Britain.86.
