第一章 Exercises 1．借助词典阅读和分析下列短文，指出其中语法和词汇特点，并指出哪些是专业词汇。 （1）A program is a series of instructions that guides a computer through a process. Each instruction tells the machine to perform one of its basic functions. Because computers are binary machines, the programs stored in a computer’s main memory must be in binary form, Few programmers actually write machine-level instructions, however. （2）Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is often described as the technology that will allow total flexibility and efficiency to be achieved in tomorrow’s high-speed, multi-service, multimedia networks. ATM has received a great deal of attention in recent years—many of you have probably already read and heard about ATM and its promise of high-speed, integrated services, and universal connectivity. Many network experts predict that ATM will be the technology that finally enables high-bandwidth, time-critical applications to reach the desktop. （3）Time-division multiplexing shows advantages over frequency- division multiplexing, both economically and in terms of flexibility. The circuits needed for time-division multiplexing are simple and cheap, whereas the filters required for frequency-division multiplexing tend to be complex and rather expensive. Thus time-division multiplexing, on a cost per channel basis, is cheaper to provide. Also, because each information- bearing pulse maintains its individuality in a time-division multiplex, it is comparatively easy to drop and add signals. This permits considerable simplification and flexibility at points where channels converge or branch. （4）We will now discuss a frequency-response design technique that considers phase-lead and phase-lag controllers from a somewhat different viewpoint. The resultant controller is called a PID (Proportional-plus-Integral- plus-Derivative) controller. This controller is a special type of the lag-lead controller. The transform function of a PID controller, using the integrator and differentiator transfer functio
