People use computers both at work and at home. They do maths, write, store (儲(chǔ)存) information, buy tickets, listen to music or play games. What do you know about the history of computers?

The first computers were very big. They were the size of a room! They were so big that people didn’t have them at home. Early computers could also only do easy maths. In the 1930s Alan Turning had the idea for a computer you could program to do different things.

In 1958 Jack Kilby first made the microchip (微型芯片). Microchips were very small but could store lots of information. They helped make computers smaller. In the 1970s computers were smaller and cheaper so people started to use them at home. In the 1980s computer games were very popular. Lots of people had computers just to play games.

In 1989 Tim Berners-Lee came up with the idea of the World Wide Web. Now people all over the world can look for and share information on websites.

Today people can use smartphones as well as computers to go on the Internet. In the past a computer was the size of a room. Now you can hold a smartphone in your hand.
