9. Computers should never have received the
significant status they now have. Fascinating and
invaluable as they are, even the most developed
ones have less brain power than a three-year-old.
They do, however, score on single-mindedness. The
three-year-old uses her brain not only to think but
also to do certain tasks, like seeing, hearing and
cunning, which need incredibly fast and sophisticated
electromechanical interactions. But the computer just
sits there and sends spacecraft to the moon or re-
arranges the world banking system which is very
much easier. That's why man's dream of robot maids
is still a long way off.

A) have contributed immensely to the improvement
of living standards 
B) are becoming unaffordable as they get more
developed 
C) have been unnecessarily overrated 
D) will be a major force behind all future progress
