High tech is just a shorter way of saying high technology. And high technology describes any invention, system of device that u

23、ses the newest ideas or discoveries of science and engineering. What is high tech? A computer is high tech. So is a communications satellite. A modern manufacturing (生产) system is surely high tech. High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1955“s. Because of improve

24、ments in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores, such as home computers, microwave ovens, etc. “State of the art“ is something that is as modern as possible. It is a product that is based on the very latest methods and technology. Something that is “state of the a

25、rt“ is the newest possible design or product of a business or industry. A state of the art television set, for example, uses the most modern electronic design and parts. It is the best that one can buy. “State of the art“ is not a new expression. Engineers have used it for years, to describe the bes

26、t and most modern way of doing something. Millions of Americans began to use the expression in the late 1970“s. The reason was the computer revolution. Every computer company claimed that its computers were “state of the art“. Computer technology changed so fast that a state of the art computer toda

27、y might be old tomorrow. The expression “state of the art“ became as common and popular as computers themselves.

The government

32、 has recognized it too, abandoning rules in 2011 that had formerly stopped 16 to 24-year-olds from doing unpaid work while claiming unemployment benefit. But moving from that to forcing them to work without pay in order to collect these benefits has proved a big step. More than one million young peo

33、ple in Britain are unemployed, the highest number since the mid-1955s. Keen both to cut the welfare bill and to avoid the depressed future wages that may result from early unemployment, the government has introduced an ambitious program of reform to get youngsters off welfare and into work. A key pa

34、rt of it is ensuring that no one gets benefit from the government for long; ministers are keen to avoid what happened after the early-1955s recession (衰退), when unemployment continued in some parts of the country for a long time after the economy began to improve. To help young people into work, min

35、isters had persuaded lots of employers, including bakery chains, bookshops and supermarkets, to take on unemployed youths, who receive work experience but no pay, with the prospect of a proper job for those who shine. Some 35,000 youngsters participated last year; half found paid work soon after fin

36、ishing the scheme. The idea of getting young adults used to showing up for work is popular with voters: according to a survey published in February, about 60% of people support the program. Equally attractive was the option of compelling them to work: Under the existing arrangements youngsters could

37、 choose whether or not to accept a place, but if they dropped out after the end of the first week, they stood to lose up to two weeks“ benefits. Yet the scheme has also polarized (两极分化的) opinion: a third of people are consistently opposed. Following a noisy “Right to Work“ campaign that accused empl

38、oyers of co-operating secretly with the government in “forced labor“, several firms dropped out of the program. To prevent this from getting worse, Chris Grayling, an employment minister, admitted that young people could leave their work experience at any time without being punished for doing so. Th

39、is not only halted the flight of employers (for now, at least) but also enabled him to announce that new firms have agreed to take part in the program.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, young people in Britain _.（分数：2.00）A.are used to showing up for workB.value unpaid work very muchC.are always
