Первый в мире электронный компьютер был построен в Пенсильванском университете в 1946 году, хотя компьютерные машины были изобретены гораздо раньше. Компьютеры впервые продавались коммерческих целей в 1950-х годах, и с тех пор был достигнут большой прогресс. Компьютеры теперь намного меньше и мощнее, и они стоят дешевле. Компьютеры применяются во многих областях - например, в бизнесе, науке, медицине и образовании. Их можно использовать для прогнозирования погоды или управления роботами, которые делают автомобили. Память компьютера - это место, где информация сохраняется и выполняется расчет. Компьютер не может думать сам за себя – ему нужно сказать, что делать. И компьютеры никогда не ошибаются. Иногда можно услышать истории о том, что из за компьютеров люди платят слишком много денег, или компьютеры отправляют счета за вещи, которые они не покупали. Эти ошибки делают программисты - люди, которые дают компьютеру свои инструкции. Несколько лет назад ракета с компьютерным управлением, принадлежащая США, вышла из-под контроля и была уничтожена. Авария была вызвана а небольшой ошибкой в одной строке программы. Эта ошибка обошлась США в 18 миллионов долларов. Преступники выяснили, что компьютерные преступления совершать зачастую намного проще, чем грабежи банков. Сотни миллионов долларов воруют у американского бизнеса каждый год люди, меняющие информацию в компьютерах. В последнее время было продано большое количество домашних компьютеров, особенно в США и Британии. Люди знают больше о компьютерах, чем раньше, и компьютеры играют большую роль в нашей жизни. Прогресс не стоит на месте. Считается, что мы можем дождаться того дня, когда даже наши домашние хлопоты вроде уборки будут делаться роботами с компьютерным управлением. Задание 8. Television (1920s) The invention that swept the world and changed leisure habits for countless millions was pioneered by Scottish-born electrical engineer John Logie Baird. It had been realised for some time that light could be converted into electrical impulses, making it possible to transmit such impulses over a distance and then reconvert them into light. Motor Car (Late 19th Century) With television, the car is probably the most widely used and most useful of all leisure-inspired inventions. German engineer Karl Benz produced the first petroldriven car in 1885 and the British motor industry started in 1896. Henry Ford was the first to use assembly line production for his Model Т car in 1908. Like them or hate them, cars have given people great freedom of travel. Electricity The name came from the Greek word for amber and was coined by Elizabeth I's physician William Gilbert who was among those who noticed that amber had the power to attract light objects after being rubbed. In the 19th century such great names as Michael Faraday, Humphry Davy, Alessandro Volta and Andre Marie Ampere all did vital work on electricity. Photography (Early 19th Century) Leonardo da Vinci had described the camera obscura photographic principle as early as 1515. But it was not until 1835 that Frenchman Louis Daguerre produced camera photography. The system was gradually refined over the years, to the joy of happy snappers and the despair of those who had to wade through friends' endless holiday pictures. Telephone (1876) Edinburgh-born scientist Alexander Graham Bell patented his invention of the telephone in 1876. The following year, the great American inventor Thomas Edison produced the first working telephone. With telephones soon becoming rapidly available, the days of letter-writing became numbered. Computer (20th Century) The computer has been another life-transforming invention. British mathematician Charles Babbage designed a form of computer in the mid-1830s, but it was not until more than a century later that theory was put into practice. Now, a whole generation has grown up with calculators, windows, icons, computer games and word processors, and the Internet and e-mail have transformed communication and information. Aeroplane The plane was the invention that helped shrink the world and brought distant lands within easy reach of ordinary people. The invention of the petrol engine made flight feasible and the American Wright brothers made the first flight in 1903. Задание 9. 1.
