Its ideology was to enhance the security system of the personal computer. But the security features weren\'t all that better than its previous versions\', according to many software critics. Vista is also not compatible on all sorts of PC\'s and runs slower compared to Windows XP. All of this prevented Vista from being a better version and it never took off like the company had hoped. B. A couple centuries ago, if you wanted to record a moment for posterity, you sat around for hours or days while someone painted it. Up until ten years ago, you were at the mercy of photo developers charging 20 cents or more to help preserve your memories. Now you can record countless images and store them electronically for all of eternity at virtually no cost per picture. C. With technology advancing at the pace it is today, we have to believe that by the end of the century we won\'t be driving our cars around the city. Rather, we will just be sitting on the then historic driver\'s seat and doing some work. While the concept looks futuristic, industrial designer Kubik Petr believes that nothing seems impossible with modern technology at hand. D. The Kenguru is designed only for the disabled. Previously car manufacturers would design cars for the disabled but not specifically for them. This Hungarian company is taking it to the next step, the disabled will be able to open the rear of the car and just roll in the driving position, secure their wheelchair — without never having to leave their chair. E. Technology certainly offers us innumerable comforts within our world, especially when it comes to people who have extreme medical conditions and need the help of science and technology to live comfortably within their everyday lives. The creation of robot limbs allows a person to walk again. The introduction of synthetic body parts such as a heart pump can help a person to live longer. F. Everyone knows that being a soldier is a dangerous job. Walking through minefields, deactivating unexploded bombs or clearing out hostile buildings, for example, are some of the riskiest tasks. What if we could send robots to do these jobs instead of humans? Then, if something went wrong, we\'d only lose the money it cost to build the robot instead of losing a human life. G. Cutting edge technologies offer the hope for a better world, bringing welcome solutions to everything from disease to environmental damage. But these same technologies can also bring danger by aiding criminals and terrorists, invading personal privacy and even potentially creating diseases and damaging the environment. The more powerful and pervasive technology becomes, the more dangerous it becomes as well.

Answer 2

the year 2050, cars will be driving themselves. The benefits are unparalleled - reduced accidents, increased safety, and the ability to multitask while you travel. But what about the job loss for taxi and truck drivers? And what about the loss of autonomy for those who enjoy driving? These are important considerations that we need to weigh as we move towards a future where machines and robots will be responsible for more and more of our daily lives. D. The US military has long been a proponent of robotics, using them for everything from bomb disposal to surveillance. As technology continues to advance, it is likely that robots will become even more commonplace in the military, performing tasks that are dangerous for humans or require a level of precision that is difficult to achieve with human hands. However, there are also concerns about the loss of human life and the moral implications of using machines to do our dirty work. E. Self-driving cars will be a godsend for the elderly and those with disabilities who are unable to drive themselves. It will also lead to safer roads, as human error is responsible for the vast majority of car accidents. But what about the loss of jobs for taxi and truck drivers? Will self-driving cars be affordable for all, or will they be a luxury only for the wealthy? There are both pros and cons to this new form of transportation. F. In the healthcare industry, robots are being used for everything from assisting with surgeries to delivering medication to patients. This significantly reduces the risk of human error and allows for more precise medical procedures. However, it also raises concerns about job loss for healthcare workers and the potential for robots to make life-and-death decisions without human input. G. Specialised vehicles have been developed for a wide range of industries, from farming to mining to space exploration. These vehicles are able to perform tasks that would be impossible or incredibly difficult for humans, and they often do so more efficiently. However, concerns arise about job loss for those who would normally perform these tasks and the potential for robots to take over entire industries. H. With all the advancements in robotics and artificial intelligence, it is inevitable that our future will be filled with robots and machines as far as the eye can see. They will perform tasks that we never even dreamed of and will make our lives easier in countless ways. But what will this mean for humanity as we know it? Will we become completely reliant on machines and lose our sense of purpose? It is up to us to determine how we want the future to look and to make sure we don't lose sight of what makes us human.
