Reading Exercises:
Exercise 1. Read and memorize using a dictionary:
equations, within, varying conditions, variable, blast, error-sensing feedback, properly, velocity, servomechanism, celestial-tracking systems, hazardous, to gear, self-governing, self-contained, entity, to draw heavily on, to run a program |
Exercise 2. Answer the questions:
Why are computer simulations used?
Where are servomechanisms used?
What are robots capable of?
How does cybernetics differ from physics?
What is cybernetics closely allied with?
Exercise 3. Are these sentences true or false?
A mathematical description of a system is developed as a computer program that uses diagrams to represent the functional relationships within the system.
Weather patterns cannot be easily tested in real life.
Few aspects of robotics involve artificial intelligence.
Cybernetics draws heavily on ideas developed in information theory.
Robots may be equipped with equations.
Exercise 4. Match the left part with the right:
1. Cybernetics views |
a) are business models and geometric models. |
2. Simpler simulations performed by personal computers
|
b) military and marine navigation equipment. |
3. Today's industrial robots
|
c) do not resemble human beings; a robot in human form is called an android. |
4. Servomechanisms were first used in |
d) communication and control in all self-contained complex systems as analogous. |
