The Library Machine

Аs automation permeates many new ideas of life, its effect upon us becomes concomitantly more PROFOUND. Information processing and communications machines are finding their way into libraries. Here they ALLEVIATE the burden of storing and bringing out to the reader the accumulation of information that is becoming more PRODIGIOUS in this era of specialization and threatening to inundate our already encumbered library system. As a way to EXPEDITE the selection of pertinent information for the reader, the machine scans 5,000 words per minute. It is the CELERITY of machine reading that makes automation in the library so valuable.

1. profound a) carry out promptly
2. alleviate b) speed, rapidity
3. prodigious с) make easier, lighten
4. expedite d) deep, intense
5. celerity e) extraordinary, enormous

The Language Machine

         Those who see the spread of automated machines as a nefarious force out to USURP the proper functions of mankind have corroboration for their belief in the language machine. The PALTRY handful of expert translators with a profound knowledge of many foreign languages leaves a wide gap in our sources of vital information. With important technological and scientific work being done abroad, it is difficult to CONDONE the situation. A machine may be set to treat a foreign language as a coded message that it can analyze and put into English. Perhaps it will not do an impeccable job, but it will permit the translation of even the most TRIVIAL foreign reports and writings. As BIZARRE as it might seem, machines are taking over as translators in ever increasing numbers.

1) usurp a) petty, worthless

2. paltry b) excuse, pardon
3. condone c) seize, annex, grab
4. trivial d) of little importance,

                                                insignificant

5) bizarre e) fantastic, odd

A Predicting Machine

While a machine may usurp many MENIAL tasks - typing of letters, making out paychecks - it can also work in less mundane ways. One such example was the use of a computer to predict results of a football game. All the information about the two teams: speed of the backs, weight of the linemen, past performances of the teams, even the years served by the VENERABLE coaches was fed into the machine. EXTRANEOUS material was avoided. The astute computer printed the figure "one" for each team. While this may seem AMBIGUOUS to the average person, it represented in the SUCCINCT language of the computer the actual score of one touchdown for each side: 7-7.

1. menial a) vague, undefined, not specific
2. venerable b) humble, degrading
3. extraneous c) respected, worshipped
4. ambiguous d) foreign, not belonging
5. succinct e) brief, concise

A Painting Machine There is even now a computer machine that may make other art forms ARCHAIC. Using computer methods, this machine can originate paintings and photographs. A machine that can EMULATE an artist is not is FACETIOUS as it may appear. Automation is inundating, some say with deleterious effects, all areas of self-expression - from music to literature. The most RABID adherents of our technological progress look upon these events as singularly favorable. They see these as harbingers of a time when machines will do all of the labor, and man will reap the SALUBRIOUS benefits.

1. archaic a) healthful, wholesome
2. emulate b) out of date
3. facetious c) rival, strive to equal
4. rabid d) comical, humorous, witty
5. salubrious e) fanatical, furious, mad
