41、puters and other kinds of automatic machinery became widespread.For optimists,this was a promise of liberation:At last humanity would be freed from constant toil,and we could all devote our days to more refined pursuits.But others saw a threat:Millions of people would be thrown out of work,and despe

48、than ever.What about trades closer to my own vital interests?Will science be automated?Technology already has a central role in many areas of research;for example,genome sequences could not be read by traditional lab-bench methods.Replacing the scientist will presumably be a little harder than repla

49、cing the lab technician,but when a machine exhibits enough curiosity and tenacity,I 高三英语试卷第 8 页(共 10 页)think well just have to welcome it as a companion in zealous research.And if the scientist is elbowed aside by an automaton,then surely the science writer cant hold out either.Im ready for my 15-ho
