课件19张PPT。Unit 3 Computers I am very old now. I was born in China. Many people used me for calculating in the past, but now I am a bit lonely because they don’t like me now.
Do you know who I am?abacusGuessing Game: I can be used for calculating. Besides, I can also be used for watching DVD, sending e-mail and communicating through the Internet. However, I am not a PC, because I’m small enough for you to take me with you.
A notebook computerDo you know who I am? I am very small. I can be used for calculating. In China, a lot of students use me when solving mathematical problems.
Do you know who I am?calculator A huge computerI am built to solve some mathematical problems. But I am too big.
Do you know who I am?
I can be used as a laptop, however, I am not a laptop, because I’m small enough for you to hold me in your hand.
Do you know who I am?PDA(personal digital assistant) A PC personal computerI am the common computer which can solve all kinds of problems and is used widely now.

1.In what other ways do we say the computer changed? What are they?

Speed:
Intelligence:Size:Listen to the tape. True or FalseAlan Turing built an Analytical Machine to solve any mathematical problems.
People began to realize that the computer got cleverer and quicker with time passing.
The computer began to serve the human race since it was brought into people’s homes.
Since the 1970s, the computer was used by people around the world through the Internet.
5. The larger the computer is, the more memory
it has.

What’s your dreamy computer?Discussion Well, I’d like to design my computer in this way. Since I like dogs very much , I will make it the shape of a dog.
Every morning, I’d like it to wake me up and fetch me what I ask it to take. Then it will go to school with me and carry my bag for me. Maybe at least it will cost 2,000 yuan, but it’s worth it. Choose the best answers
