The first computer was 1 (invent) in 1946. It was very big but it worked 2 (slow). Today computers are getting smaller and smaller, but they work faster and faster. What can computers do? A writer has said, “People can’t live 3 computers today.”

The Internet came about twenty-five years 4 (late) than computers. But now it can 5 (find) almost everywhere. We can use it to read books, write letters, play computer games or make friends.

Many students enjoy 6 (use) the Internet very much. They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They don’t know 7 (they) real names, ages, or even sexes (性别). They are so 8 (interest) in making the “unreal friends” 9 they can’t put their hearts into study. Many of them can’t catch up with others in many 10 (subject) because of that.

We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world. But at the same time, we should remember that not all the things can be done by computers and the Internet.
