Which of the following titles would be the most suitable for this passage? A) Dogs – A Great Help to People B) Dogs – Our Faithful Companions C) An Introduction to Dogs D) Famous Dogs in Germany Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: In the early days people could not count as we do. Their method was very simple. At first, they did all their counting with small stones. Later, they learned to use their fingers in counting. Since man has ten fingers, the number ten became the foundation of all counting in many parts of the world. This decimal system led gradually to a branch of mathematics. We call it arithmetic. Accurate measurement and exact computation are the bases of modern engineering and scientific research. For example, scientists usually test their theories by practical experiments, and they have to make computations before they can say that the results of their experiments are correct. Scientists will have to work day and night for the computation, but the computer can do them quickly and accurately. For instance, a spacecraft cannot leave the earth and go to the moon without computers. In recent years more and more people have used computers not only in production and technology, but also in everyday life, for the simple reason that they are far more efficient than man. They have much better memories and can store large amounts of information. No man alive can do 500,000 sums in one second but a computer can. In fact, computers can do many of the things we do faster and better. They can control machines in factories, work out tomorrow’s weather, and even do translation work. In the future we are going to use computers for almost everything we do. (248 words) 26. Why did the number ten become the foundation for all counting in many parts of the world?
