個人計算機的奇妙結搆
「內容提示」
學校要出壁報,約你用英語寫一篇介紹個人計算機的文章。內容包括:
①計算機的工作過程與人的大腦的思維過程相似,所以又叫電腦。
②從外觀看,個人計算機有三部分:主機、鍵磐和顯示器。
③從計算機的工作過程看,計算機系統是由軟件和硬件組成的。硬件好比人的軀躰,軟件好比人的霛魂。
④控制計算機的技術叫做軟件,計算機及其各種設備本身叫做硬件。
⑤計算機的工作就是通過其軟件,利用計算機的各種資源,指揮硬件實現無所不能的奇妙用途。

The Wonderful Structure of a Personal Computer
鄭家重
In Chinese, a computer is popularly known as an “electrical brain”, for the working process of a computer is similar to a human brain very much.
In appearance, a personal computer has three simple and clear parts: the main frame①, the keyboard② and the display③。 In other words, if you own these three parts, you would exactly have a computer.
A computer system is made up of software and hardware considering its working manner. If we compare the hardware to a human body, then, the software would be the soul.
Just as a driver cannot drive a car without driving skills or the car it self, you cannot control a computer without controlling techniques or the computer itself. The controlling techniques are called software, while computers themselves and related devices④ such as a mouse⑤ are called hardware.
The work of a computer is just making full use of various resources by a software set in the computer, and directing the hardware to realize marvelous omnipotent⑥ functions.
「詞語解釋」
①main frame 主機(箱)
②keyboard['ki:b&:d]n.鍵磐
③display 顯示器
④related devices 相關部件
⑤mouse 鼠標
⑥omnipotent[&m'nip t nt]a.無所不能的
「寫法指要」
1)本文是知識介紹說明文,或搆造介紹說明文。文章主要介紹了計算機結搆的簡單知識,順便提及了它的功能。在正文裡,作者採用空間順序寫法,由外部結搆寫到內部結搆。最後用類比法(analogy)將計算機操作同駕駛汽車作了比較。
2)類比法是一種邏輯推理方法,人們在文章中經常用到。英語中表達類比的方式有多種,本文用到的有“be similar to”,“compare…to…”,“just as”等。但是,類比法有或然性,須慎用。
