Now, I'd like to tell you about the development of computers. Computers began a calculating machine in France in 1642, it could (simple) difficult sums. In 1936, Alan Turing wrote a book about how a computer could be made to work as a "universal Machine" (solve) any difficult mathematical problem. By the 1940s, computers had grown as large as a room. As time went by, they were made (small). Since the 1970s computers (use) in offices and homes, first as personal computers and then as laptops.
As computers' memory improved, computers became much smaller and more (intelligence). First the memory was stored in tubes, then on transistors and later on very small chips. Over time computer's memory (develop) so much that computers remember everything they have been told. In the early 1960s computers could be connected to each other by the network (call) the World Wide Web.
Many new (apply) have been found for computers since the1970s. They have been used in communication, finance, trade, robots, mobile phones, space rockets and so the goal of computers is to provide humans a life of high quality.
The idea behind Facebook is to make us feel connected all the time. But in my research, I've found that the truth is quiet different.
Technology, it turns out, has made being alone seem like a problem that needs soling. When young people are alone, even for a minute or two, they feel the need to connect to get on Facebook or some other social networks and chat. But in connecting, they often end up feeling more isolated. Why? Because by being in constant (不断的) connection, they lose the ability to feel satisfied with their own company (独处).
Facebook can help us keep in touch with our friends, but we too often use it instead of spending face to face time with them. And since we feel the need to keep up with them online, we don't have moments of loneliness where we can collect our thoughts and learn how to be comfortable being alone.

Facebook connects more of us to more of our friends and family in more places than we have ever been connected before. Yes. Facebook is a huge time sink -maybe the biggest ever. Many people post useless stuff. And seeing too much of your friends lives can make you jealous (嫉妒的), but it won't make you lonely.
Jane, a former student of mine, who is back in New York after living abroad for ten years told me that Facebook helps her a lot. The first time she moved back to New York from abroad, she felt disconnected from her family and friends. now because of lots of photos and information updates (更新), she knows what is happening with her friends all the time.
In fact, if you are lonely in real life, you will be lonely online as well.
