II. Read and translate the text. Scientific and Technological Progress.
It’s difficult to overestimate the role of science and technology in our life. They accelerate the development of civilization and help us in our co-operation with nature. Scientists investigate the laws of the universe, discover the secrets of nature, and apply their knowledge in practice improving the life of people.
Let’s compare or life nowadays with the life of people at the beginning of the 20th century. It has changed beyond recognition. Our ancestors hadn’t the slightest idea of the trivial things created by the scientific progress that we use in our everyday life. I mean refrigerators, TV-sets, computers, microwave ovens, radio telephones, what not. They would seem miracle to them that made our life easy, comfortable and pleasant. On the other hand, the great inventions of the beginning of the 20th century, I mean radio, aeroplanes, combustion and jet engines have become usual things and we can’t imagine our life without them.

or commands to a computer. For expressing directions to a computer the programmer in practice uses special programming languages.
Because computers can accept letters and numbers, nearly all the programming languages express the directions in some combinations of letters and numbers.
The programming languages in use fall into three general categories in terms of their similarity to ordinary English: machine languages, symbolic languages and automatic coding languages. In terms of their importance for computer utilization, the machine languages are the most basic, for the computers can use them directly. But symbolic languages and automatic coding languages are more convenient for the programmer use because they are more similar to English.
Some programming languages are used only with a particular model of a computer; some are used with more than one model of a computer. For the convenience of the programmer, a language that can be used with several different models of computers is more useful.
When the user wishes to communicate with the computer, he uses a spectrum of languages: English, Pascal, C, Algol, Assembly language, Mnemonic machine language, Machine language.
A machine language which is sometimes called as a basic programming language or autocode refers to instructions written in a machine code. This machine code can be immediately obeyed by a computer without translation. The actual machine language is generated by software, not by a programmer. The programmer writes in a programming language which is translated into the machine language.
Symbolic languages use symbolic addresses in the operands. Indirect addresses allow greater flexibility in programming because the programmer by changing the contents of indirect addresses can, in effect, modify a program.
An assembly language is the most machine-dependent language used by programmers today. There are three advantages to using an assembly language rather than machine language. They are following: addresses are symbolic, not absolute as in machine language; reading easier; introduction of data is easier.
A disadvantage of assembly language is that it requires the use of an assembler to translate a source program into object code (program) in order to be directly understood by the computer. The program written in assembly language is called assembly.
