4. Read and translate it into Chinese

① The study of electric circuits is fundamental in electrical engineering education, and can be quite valuable in other disciplines as well. The skills acquired not only are useful in such electrical engineering areas as electronics, communications, microwaves, control, and power systems but also can be employed in other seemingly different fields.

② The impact of digital integrated circuits on our modern society has been pervasive. Without them, the revolution of current computer and information-technology would not exist. Digital integrated circuits represent the most important enabling technology in this revolution. This is largely true because of the immense amount of signal and computer processing which can be realized in a single integrated circuit.
