Vejamos como resolver esse exercicio. Substituindo os verbos corretamente no texto e dividindo o texto em paragrafos, para que seja mais facil resolve-lo, temos:

The computers of tomorrow won't be on top of desks, and they most likely won't have a monitor, keyboard and case. But most interestingly of all, we may stop thinking of computers simply as machines.

As the future comes, the definition of a computer will rapidly change. The computer itself, will disappear. Watches, microwaves, and even doors will be computers. They will have the ability to be controlled from anywhere in the house.

Any display that is. We will be able to set the VCR to tape our favorite show by selecting the VCR from the display in the bathroom. Monitors will hang around the house on walls. They will be used for TV, for the internet and to control everything in the house.

They will be used for all our shopping, and for all of our phone calls. Internet, TV, VCR, stereo, and telephone, all will be combined in one. One server in each house will control everything.

Any display will allow the user to surf the net, watch a TV program or make a phone call. In the future, there will be just one network. Houses will be connected by the fastest means possible, whether by satellite, cable lines or fiber optic cables. Through this connection will travel everything.

The idea of sitting down and using a computer will be obsolete in the future. It will be almost impossible not to use a computer. Whether we want to lock a door, surf the net, or play our favorite song, everything will take  place through a display or a voice activated control.

The computer of tomorrow will be very different from that of today, but the advances will only make things better for us, the users. We obviously failed to mention many things that will change and we will probably prove wrong on others.

This is simply how we see it now. Only the future will show us the true computer of tomorrow.

Realizando a traducao do texto, temos:

Os computadores de amanhã não estarão em cima de mesas e provavelmente não terão monitor, teclado e gabinete. Mas o mais interessante é que podemos parar de pensar em computadores simplesmente como máquinas.

À medida que o futuro chegar, a definição de um computador mudará rapidamente. O próprio computador desaparecerá. Relógios, microondas e até portas serão computadores. Eles terão a capacidade de serem controlados de qualquer lugar da casa.

Qualquer exibição que seja. Poderemos configurar o videocassete para gravar nosso programa favorito, selecionando o videocassete na tela do banheiro. Os monitores ficam pendurados nas paredes da casa. Eles serão usados ​​para a TV, para a Internet e para controlar tudo na casa.

Eles serão usados ​​para todas as nossas compras e para todas as nossas chamadas telefônicas. Internet, TV, videocassete, aparelho de som e telefone, todos serão combinados em um. Um servidor em cada casa controlará tudo.

Qualquer exibição permitirá que o usuário navegue na Internet, assista a um programa de TV ou faça uma ligação. No futuro, haverá apenas uma rede. As casas serão conectadas pelos meios mais rápidos possíveis, seja por satélite, linhas de cabos ou cabos de fibra óptica. Através desta conexão viajará tudo.

A idéia de sentar e usar um computador será obsoleta no futuro. Será quase impossível não usar um computador. Quer trancemos uma porta, navegemos na Internet ou tocemos nossa música favorita, tudo acontecerá através de um monitor ou de um controle ativado por voz.

O computador de amanhã será muito diferente do de hoje, mas os avanços só melhorarão as coisas para nós, usuários. Obviamente, deixamos de mencionar muitas coisas que mudarão e provavelmente provaremos errado nos outros.

É assim que vemos agora. Somente o futuro nos mostrará o verdadeiro computador de amanhã.
