有人预测现行的计算机体系将在2010年遇到无法逾越的障碍。
但从目前的技术发展趋势来看,新技术不断被应用到计算机行业,Moore定律至少到2010年仍会有效,届时计算机的基本构造应不会有大的改变。另一方面,在沿着传统框架发展高性能计算机的同时,一些新型的计算机体系也已被提出,有些已从根本上突破了冯.诺依曼计算机体系与电子技术的局限,这方面的工作得到了多方面的重视。
未来高性能计算机目前可分为量子、超导、光子和DNA计算机四种类型。Have a rest!

The structure of the present perfect passive voice is: have/ has + been+~edLearning about passive voice—an overview 现在完成时的被动语态表示动作发生在过去, 到现在已经完成或对现在仍有影响。 现在完成时的被动语态Understanding the structure of the present perfect passive voice
The structure of the present perfect passive voice is: have / has + been+~ed注意: 副词的位置
often, usually, always, never, hardly, seldom等副词置于have / has和been中间。如:
[误] Such a man has been hardly
believed.
[正] Such a man has hardly been
believed.2. 并不是所有动词都有被动语态
1) happen, take place, break out, belong to, cost, last等不及物动词或词组无被动语态。如:
[误] Great changes have been taken
place in China since 1978.
[正] Great changes have taken place in
China since 1978.2) open, break, drop等不强调动作发出者时常用主动语态。3. 短语动词不可分割或省略其中的介词或副词。如:
The patients have been taken good care of.4. 一些特殊动词, 如borrow, finish, begin, buy, start, return, marry, open, join等构成的现在完成时的被动语态不能与表示一段时间的状语连用。若要表达相应的意思, 则需改换动词或时态。如:My brother has had (不能用has bought) this bike for almost four years.
How long has this book been bought?
How long ago was this book bought?(1) 把主动语态的宾语变为被动语态的主语。
(2) 把谓语变成被动结构 (be+过去分词)
(根据被动语态句子里的主语的人称和数,以及原来主动语态句子中动词的时态来决定be的形式)。 主动语态变被动语态的方法(3) 把主动语态中的主语放在介词by之后作宾语, 将主格改为宾格。例如:
All the people laughed at him.
He was laughed at by all people.
They make the bikes in the factory.
The bikes are made by them in the
factory.(4) 双宾语动词变被动语态可将其中的一个宾语变为主语, 另一个保留不动。
主动:I have given him the key.
被动:He has been given the key.
被动:The key has been given (to) him.(5) 带复合宾语的动词变被动语态时, 只能将宾语变为主语, 原来的宾补保留不动, 改称主语补足语。
主动:I have asked her to help you.
被动:She has been asked to help you.Practice Turn the following into the Passive
Voice.
1. We have planted some trees around the lake.
Some trees have been planted around the lake . 2. My father has locked the door.
The door has been locked.
3. Someone has turned off the light.
The light has been turned off.4. We will hold the Olympic Games in Beijing in the year 2008.
The Olympic Games will be held in Beijing in the year 2008.
5. They have rebuilt the bridge.
The bridge has been rebuilt.
试分析:
1) [误] Many new buildings been built since 2000.?[正] Many new buildings have
been built since 2000.?[析] 谓语部分结构不全,时态部
分不完整。?2) [误] Something bad has been happened to him.??[析] 被动语态误用。happen为不及
物动词,不及物动词没有被动
语态。?[正] Something bad has happened to him.?[正] The door has opened of itself.?[析] 有些动词如open, break, drop
等既可作及物动词,又可作不及物动词,若不强调谁是动作发出者,我们通常用主动语态。of? itself意思是“自动地”。因此, 此句不可用被动语态。3) [误] The door has been opened of itself.?4) [误] I have introduced to Mr Li.?[析] introduce为及物动词, I 是 introduce的承受者。?[正] I have been introduced to Mr Li (by Mr Wang). 1. When and where to go for the on-salary holiday ___ yet.

What does IT consist of?For reference Information Technology (IT) is a broad subject concerned with the
use of technology in managing and processing information, especially
in large organizations. In particular, IT deals with the use of electronic computers and computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit, and retrieve information. For that reason, computer professionals are often called IT specialists or Business Process Consultants, and the division of a company or university that deals with software technology is often called the IT department . Other names for the latter are information services (IS) or management information services (MIS), managed service providers (MSP). ListeningListen to the whole text and
