The Development of Computers

1. The first computers used thousands of separate electrical components connected together with wires. In the late 1940s, computers were made using vacuum tubes¹, resistors, and diodes. These computers were called first generation computers.

2. In 1956, transistors were invented. Transistors are made from materials called semiconductors. Computers using transistors were called second generation computers. Second generation computers were smaller than first generation computers. Second generation computers also used less electrical power. Both first and second generation computers were very expensive.

3. Computer components (such as transistors, diodes, resistors) can now be made from semiconductor materials of different shapes. Nowadays, complete circuits can be made from a single piece of semiconductor, called a chip. Such circuits are called integrated circuits² (ICs).

4. Computers using integrated circuits were first produced in the 1960s. They were known as third generation computers. Their integrated circuits had about 200 components on a single chip. Today, we can produce more than 100, 000 components on a single chip. A chip can be as small as 0.5 cm square.

With the invention of chips, computer manufacture has become much simpler. The manufacturer does not have to connect thousands of components together. Most of the connections are made inside the chip. It is even possible to build a complete in a single chip. A processor on single is called a microprocessor.

Robots — the Ideal Workers?

1. We hear many complaints about work in factories; the work is often " boring, heavy and repetitive; the operative¹ doesn't have to think about the work; he gets no job satisfaction.

2. The answer is a robot. For many jobs a robot is much better than human operative. Once it has been programmed, it will do its job over and over again. It never gets bored; it works at a constant speed; it doesn't make mistakes; its work is always of the same standard; it doesn't get tired; it can work 24 hours a day without breaks for food, rest or sleep.

3. Robots have other advantages, too. They are designed to do almost any job. You can't change the human body, but a robot's arms, for example, can be made to move in any direction. Robots also do very heavy work and they can operate in conditions that are too.dangerous, too hot or too cold for people to work in. They work under water, in poisonous gas and in radioactive areas.

4. It is obvious that robots have many advantages over human beings. However, it is also true that humans can do many things that robots can't. For example, humans can carry out a task without having to be told exactly how to do it first — in other words, they don't always have to be programmed.

5. Humans can move, but robots are usually fixed in one place. If they are able to move, robots do it only in a very limited way. Unlike robots, people can know whether what they are doing is good or bad, and whether it is boring or interesting. Also robots are only just beginning to be able to understand speech and writing, but humans communicate easily with each other by these methods, and by many others — telephone, drawing, radio, and so on — as well.

6. And we should not forget that robots owe their existence² to humans—we make them, repair them and control them, not the other way round.
