Первый в мире электронный компьютер (1) был построен в университете

---

Пенсильвания в 1946 году, хотя компьютероподобные машины (2) были изобретены гораздо раньше. Компьютеры (3) впервые были коммерчески проданы в 1950-х годах, и с тех пор был достигнут большой прогресс (4). Компьютеры теперь намного меньше и мощнее, и их можно (5) купить гораздо дешевле. Компьютеры (6) применяются во многих областях - например, в бизнесе, науке, медицине и образовании. Они могут (7) использоваться для прогнозирования погоды или управления роботами, которые делают автомобили. Память компьютера - это место, где информация (8)

Ведется и расчеты (9) сделаны. Компьютер не может думать сам за себя - ему (10) нужно сказать, что делать. Многие сложные вычисления могут (11) быть сделаны очень быстро на компьютере. И компьютеры (12) никогда не ошибаются. Истории (13) иногда слышат о компьютерах, платящих людям слишком много денег или посылающих им счета за вещи, которые они не покупали. Эти ошибки (14) совершают программисты - люди, которые дают компьютеру инструкции. Несколько лет назад управляемая компьютером ракета, принадлежащая США, вышла из-под контроля и должна была (15) быть уничтожена. Авария (16) была вызвана небольшой ошибкой в ​​одной строке программатора. Эта ошибка обошлась США в 18 миллионов долларов. Преступники обнаружили, что компьютерные преступления часто намного легче, чем грабить банки.

Сотни миллионов долларов (17) каждый год были украдены у американских компаний людьми, которые меняли информацию на компьютерах. В последнее время было продано большое количество домашних компьютеров (18), особенно в США и Великобритании. Люди знают о компьютерах больше, чем раньше, и компьютеры играют большую роль в нашей жизни. Прогресс (19) делается все время в наше время. Это (20) Считалось, что мы можем с нетерпением ждать того дня, когда даже наши домашние дела, такие как уборка (21), выполняются компьютеризированными роботами.
