English First Exam

People have been using types of computers for thousands of years. A metal machine was
found on the seabed in Greece that was more than 2,000 years old. It is believed that this was
the first ever computer.

In 1940s, technology had developed enough for inventors to make the first generation of
modern computers. One such model was so large it needed a room that was 167 square
meters to accommodate it. During that decade, scientists in England developed the first
computer program. It took 25 minutes to complete one calculation.

In 1958 CE, the computer chip was developed. The first computer game was produced in
1962 CE, followed two years later by the computer mouse. The floppy disk ,which helped in
sharing information between computers for the first time, was invented in 1971 CE . The first
PC was produced in 1974 CE, so people could buy computers to use at home.

Life in the future is going to see further changes in computer technology. It is likely that all
aspects of everyday life will rely on a computer program, from how we travel to how our
homes are heated.
