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.

Service on the 102-km high-speed railway between Shenzhen and Guangzhou started on December 26, 2011. A non-stop trip between the Guangzhou South Station and the Shenzhen North Station takes 35 minutes at full speed.
The train runs at the highest speed of 300 km per hour. All 36 pairs of trains run every day. A one-way first-class ticket costs 100 yuan. A second-class one costs 75 yuan, 5 yuan cheaper than a second-class ticket on the slower line.
A high-speed train has 556 seats, including 16 seats in the VIP rooms and 50 in the first-class carriage (车厢). It offers more advanced facilities (先进的设施). For example, the seats are more comfortable, there are toilets for the disabled (残疾人), and there are power outlets (电源插座) in the first-class carriage.
The high-speed service between Guangzhou and Shenzhen will be a convenient choice for many people. “I won't need to travel to the Guangzhou East Station to take a train to Shenzhen,” said Wang Yi, who lives in Panyu district in Guangzhou.
Many people still prefer the slower trains, because the terminals (终点站) of the high-speed trains are far away from the centres of both cities. “I would not like to take a high-speed train to Shenzhen. I live in the centre of Guangzhou. First I have to get to the Guangzhou South Station. It is a waste of time for me,” said Zhang Lu.
