本文介紹了電腦的產生、發展以及在我們曰常生活中廣泛的使用，針對一些人對將來電腦會控制人類的擔憂，作者提出了自己的看法。

1. A one of后要用可數名詞的復數形式,根據文章意思，可知答案是A.

2. D要表達第幾個世紀，應該用"序數詞+ century",而根據常識，計算機是20世紀的產物,A項"21世紀"與實際不符合。

3. B固定搭配not only... but (also) ..,意為"不但……而且……"。

4. A in many ways為一固定用法，表示"在許多方面"。

5. D根據文章大意，可知答案是   D. 表示"給人們帶來財富和快樂"。

6. C 因為Eniac是名字，故用called。

7. C根據常識可知老式計算機龐大而笨重，故填largeo

8. D該句意為"自它誕生之日起，它的發展就非常迅速"，since在意思和時態上與主句呼應，為正確選項。

9. C動詞短語go through表示"經歷"。

10. D 11. A用介詞for+賓語表示"為人們做事"，故選入。

12. C know about表示"了解"，側重于有關某人或某事的具體情況。

13. A learn后面接的是一個賓語從句，而且連接詞在從句中做learn的賓語，所以只能用what, 因為that在賓語從句中是純連詞，只能起連接作用，不能做句子成分。

14. D think of表示"想起;認為"；think about表示"考慮"；think out表示"想出"；根據文章含義,答案應是   D.

15. C介詞as表示"作為"，為正確選項。
