    The ENIAC (电子数学积分计算机) was the first modern computer. It was built in 1946 at the University of Pennsylvania (宾夕法尼亚洲). The machine was very big. It was the size of a large room. It was also very heavy. The ENIAC weighed more than 27,000 kilograms. It was very expensive. Plus, it was not easy to use. But it did a good job.

    Over the years, computers got smaller and smaller. They also got cheaper and cheaper. First, big businesses got computers. Then, small businesses bought them. Now, people have computers at school, work, and home. Our small computers are much faster than the ENIAC.

    Nobody uses the ENIAC now. But we still remember it. It is important in the history of computers.

    I asked my neighbor, Mrs. White, to take me to the bus station in the center of the city, so I could try taking the bus home.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. When I got there, I went inside and got a bus timetable（时刻表）. I looked at the map and worked out that I needed to take three buses to get home.

    I bought the tickets and went outside to wait at the bus stop for the Number 8 bus. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. I gave my ticket to the bus driver and took a seat. At the right stop I got off. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. I waited and waited. A man was also waiting for the same bus. He said that it wasn't unusual for the bus to be late. Half an hour later, it finally came. To make the matter worse, the third bus broke down halfway and the driver had to fix it. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. So when I finally got home, I was very tired. Maybe getting a car in Los Angeles wasn't such a bad idea!
