问题     In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early postwar era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic hut also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction.
    Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong. Questions and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills. [br] The passage recommends those dealing computers to______.

选项 A、be reasonably skeptical about them
B、check all their answers
C、substitute them for basic thinking
D、use them for business purpose only

答案 A

解析 本题为深层推理题,提问的是对于那些经常使用计算机的人们,文章建议他们怎么做。结合整篇义章的主旨,特别是第二段第一句“...,but people should also rely on their owninternal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something hasgone wrong.”“人们也应该依靠自己的头脑,在感觉有问题的时候进行检查”,显然文章建议他们对计算机也要有合理的质疑,故选项A)为正确答案。
