History of the Internet(因特網(wǎng)的歷史)
Nowadays Intemet is very popular all over the world, especially in some big cities. Do you know when the Intemet was first established? Built in 1960s, the Internet was a crude network of a few computers which shared information. If one of the computers broke down, the whole networks would be unable to work, causing continual problems. At first, just the government had access to the Internet, using it for communications among different branches. However, by 1970s the Internet had been used in universities, banks, and hospitals. At the beginning of 1990s computers became affordable for common people and this affordability increased the use of the Internet by people,
It is said that each day tens of millions of people log off, making it the most important part of people's life.
現(xiàn)在因特網(wǎng)在世界范圍內(nèi)非常流行,特,別是一些大城市更是如此。你知道因特網(wǎng)是在什么時(shí)候建立的嗎?建立在二十世紀(jì)六十年代的因特網(wǎng)是少許計(jì)算機(jī)分享信息的原始網(wǎng)絡(luò)。如果一臺(tái)計(jì)算機(jī)壞了,整個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)網(wǎng)絡(luò)就停止工作,這帶來了一系列的問題。最初只是政府利用因特網(wǎng)在不同的分支機(jī)構(gòu)間交流。然而,到了二十世紀(jì)七十年代,因特網(wǎng)開始被用于大學(xué)、銀行和醫(yī)院。到了二十世紀(jì)九十年代初,計(jì)算機(jī)對(duì)大眾來說已經(jīng)負(fù)擔(dān)得起了,因此因特網(wǎng)的使用也隨之增加。
據(jù)說,每天使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的人超過幾百萬,它已成為人們生活中最重要的一部分。
Internet was first established in 1960s. At that time, the computer was both large and expensive and the networks were unable to work well. If one of the computers broke down, the whole networks would be unable to work.
At first, the Intemet was just used by the government. By 1970s, it had been used in universities, banks and hospitals. At the beginning of 1990s,computers became both cheaper and easier to operate. Now it is very convenient to log on the Intemet.
It is said that each day tens of millions of people log on the Internet. Sending e-mails is becoming more and more popular.
The Intemet has become the most important part of people's life.
互聯(lián)網(wǎng)首建于二十世紀(jì)六十年代。那時(shí),計(jì)算機(jī)又大又貴,計(jì)算機(jī)網(wǎng)絡(luò)也不能很好地工作。如果網(wǎng)絡(luò)中一臺(tái)計(jì)算機(jī)
