1、Unit 3 Computers Most kids have cellphones or tablets (平板) and are texting or using social media all the time. Experts say that parents should use apps to watch out for their childrens online activity.According toa survey, 70 percent of US. teens carry cellphones, and Russ Warner, the CEO of Net Nan

His best advice to parents is to know what is out there and to plan in advance.“Put a plan into place because kids like to feel protected，” Warner said. “They like to feel like Mom or Dad is helping.”According to another study, almost 90 percent of c

However, Warner said only 50 percent of parents talk with kids about avoiding these experiences.“That means the other half dont and thats a problem，” he said.Warner often speaks to parent groups concerned about keeping their teens safe, “Ofte
4、ntimes (时常地) if we cant control or we dont understand something, we avoid it and we cant do that anymore.”He said parents need to talk to their children about online danger, and then they need to use safety software. Parents should know who is trying to communicate with their children and what they
5、are watching online.Warner added parents also need to understand phone settings (设置). iPhone settings come with restrictions (限制) that are easy to set. Parents can enable restrictions with a code that they know, and their child does not. Parents can also set phones to not allow apps to be downloaded
6、 without a passcode.Section_Warming Up & Reading PrereadingWHO AM I?Over time I have been changed quite a lot. I began as a calculating machine in France in 1642. Although I was young I could simplify difficultsums. I developed very slowly and it took nearly two hundred years before I was built as a
7、n analytical machine by Charles Babbage. After I was programmed by an operator who used cards with holes, I could “think” logically and produce an answer quicker than any person. At that time it was considered a technologicalrevolution and the start of my “artificialintelligence”. In 1936 my real fa
8、ther, Alan Turing, wrote a book about how I could be made to work as a “universal machine” to solve any difficult mathematical problem. From then on， I grew rapidly both in size and in brainpower. By the 1940s I had grown as large as a room， and I wondered if I would grow any larger. However, this r
9、eality also worried my designers. As time went by， I was made smaller. First as a PC (personal computer) and then as a laptop, I have been used in offices and homes since the 1970s.over time经过漫长的时间；随着时间的推移，在句中作状语，句子用现在完成时。calculate/klkjleIt/vt.计算calculator/klkjleIt/n.

13、迅速成长。到20世纪40年代，我已经长得像一间屋子那么大，我不知道是否还会长得更大。但是，这个现实也使得我的设计者很担心。随着时间的推移，我被做得更小了。自20世纪70年代以来，我一直被用在办公室和家庭里，先是用作个人电脑，后来又做成便携式电脑。These changes only became possible as my memory improved. First it was stored in tubes， then on transistors and later on very small chips. As a result Itotally changed my shape.
14、 As I have grown older I have also grown smaller. Over time my memory has developed so much that, like an elephant, I never forget anything I have been told！ And my memory became so large that even I couldnt believe it! But I was always so lonely standing there by myself, until in the early 1960s th
15、ey gave me a family connected by anetwork. I was able to share my knowledge with others through the World Wide Web.Since the 1970s many new applications have been found for me. I have become very important in communication, finance and trade. I have also been put into robots and used to make mobile phones as well as help with medical operations. I have even been put into space rockets and sent to explore the Moon and Mars. Anyhow， my goal is to provide humans with a life of high quality. I am now truly filled with happiness
