At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks didnt work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time.At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the early 1970s. universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it, too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made “surfing” the Internet more convenient.Today it is easy to get on-line and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day.

However, we do know a lot about languages，the languages of today and also the languages of earlier times. There are probably about three thousand languages in the world today.

For example, most of the languages of Europe are in one large family called Indo-European. The original(最初的) language of this family was spoken about 4,500 years ago. Many of the present-day languages of Europe and India are modern forms of the language of 4,500 yeas ago.Languages are always changing. The English of today is very different from the English of 500 years ago. In time some even died out completely. About 1,000 years ago，English was a little-known relative of German spoken on one of the borders of Europe.If a language has a large number of speakers or if it is very old, there may be differences in the way it is spoken in different areas. That is, the language may have several dialects. Chinese is a good example of dialect differences. Chinese has been spoken for thousands of years by many millions of speakers.

But Picasso, the great Spanish painter, was like a man who had not yet found his own particular style of painting. He kept on struggling to find the perfect expression till his death in 1973.Some of Picassos paintings are rich, soft, colored and beautiful. Others are ugly and cruel and strange. But such paintings allow us to _ for ourselves. They force us to say to our selves, “What does he see that makes him paint like that?” And we begin to look beneath the surface of the things we see.Picasso painted thousands of pictures in different styles. Sometimes he painted the natural look of things. Sometimes he seemed to break them apart and throw the pieces in our faces. He showed us what the mind knows as well as what the eye sees. At the age of 90 he remained as curious about the world as he had been when he was young. That is why people have called him “ the youngest painter in the world”.56.
