　　In Google's vision of the future, people will be able to translate documents instantly into the world's main languages, with machine logic, not expert linguists, leading the way．

　　Google's approach, called statistical(统计的)machine translation, differs from past efforts in which it does without language experts who program grammatical rules and dictionaries into computers．Instead, they feed documents humans have already translated into two languages and then rely on computers to decide patterns for future translations．

　　While the quality is not perfect, it is an improvement on previous efforts at machine translation, said Franz Och, 35, a German who heads Google's translation effort at its Mountain View headquarters south of San Francisco．“Some people who have been in machine translations for a long time see our Arabic-English output, and then they say, that's amazing, that's a breakthrough，”said Och．“And then other people who have never seen what machine translation was read through the sentence and they say, the first mistake here in Line Five－it doesn't seem to work because there is a mistake there．”

　　But for some tasks, a mostly correct translation may be good enough．Speaking over lunch this week in a Google cafeteria famed for offering free, healthy food, Och showed a translation of an Arabic Web news site into easily digestible English．

　　Two Google workers speaking Russian at a nearby table said, however, that a translation of a news site from English into their native tongue was understandable but a bit awkward．Och, who speaks German, English and some Italian, feeds hundreds of millions of words from parallel texts such as Arabic and English into the computer, using United Nations and European Union documents as key sources．

　　Languages without considerable translated texts, such as some African languages, face greater obstacles．“The more data we feed into the system, the better it gets，”said Och, who moved to the United States from Germany in 2002．

　　The program applies statistical analysis, an approach he hopes will avoid diplomatic embarrassing mistakes in diplomatic situations, such as when Russian leader Putin's translator annoyed then German Chancellor(总理)Gerhard Schroeder by calling him the German “Fuhrer(“leader” in English)，”which is forbidden in that context because of its association with Adolf Hitler．

　　“I would hope that the language model would say, well, Schroeder is…very rare but Bundeskanzler Gerhard Schroeder is probably 100 times more frequent than Fuhrer and then it would make the right decision．”Och said．

　　Just the mention of the TOEFL, GRE and GAMT exams brings a thought of long hours of dull paper work．But that idea is becoming increasingly out of date．As planned, computerized tests will begin next year which will bring a series of changes from test psychology to scoring techniques．

　　From computer - equipped rooms, examinees will answer the questions on a computer．If they are sure about their choices, they can pass to the next question by pressing the entry(条目)“next”．Then another question will be randomly(任意地)selected from a vast test item bank and appear on the screen．After answering all the questions, examinees can choose the entry“quit”if they are not satisfied with their performance, or“score”if they want to see the result．Scores will be calculated immediately and appear on the screen．By that point, student's marks are official－there is no going back．

　　Since they greatly shorten the painful waiting process-which used to be two or three months, computerized tests have won worldwide popularity．Besides, there will be no rushing to the registration offices(登记处)for these exams．Computerized tests will be given every workday in an exam center with all three kinds of tests being held in the same room．All test takers need to do is to call the exam center and book their seats for a particular day．

　　In addition it will become technically possible to apply new testing procedures．In the past, each examinee had the same set of test items despite differences in their ability．Under a computerized system, however, if the computer judges an answer is right, a question of a relatively difficult nature will follow．But if an examinee continues to give wrong answers and is judged as un-qualified by the computer system, he will be automatically denied the chance to go further in the test．

(1)

Computerized tests allow the examinee to know their scores ________．

[　　]

A．

immediately on a central computer for scoring test papers

B．

a few minutes after the exam with the help of a test center worker

C．

on the next day after they have taken the exam

D．

immediately after the exam by means of the same computer

(2)

If an examinee is not satisfied with his performance ________．

[　　]

A．

he can admit defeat and give it up

B．

he can ask the computer to give some advice

C．

he can ask another chance within a few days

D．

he is allowed to do it once again

(3)

Under a computerized system, all of the following would be possible except that ________．

[　　]

A．

different exams can be taken in the same room

B．

one doesn't need to rush to the registration officer for taking an exam

C．

it will be much easier to pass an examination

D．

one can take an exam almost at any time of the year

(4)

The word denied in the last sentence most probably means ________．

[　　]

A．

refused

B．

allowed

C．

lost

D．

passed
