The Wonderful Structure of a Personal Computer
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.
【词语解释】
①main frame 主机（箱）
②keyboard[＇ki:b&:d]n．键盘
③display 显示器
④related devices 相关部件
⑤mouse 鼠标
⑥omnipotent[&m＇nip+t+nt]a．无所不能的 内容来自www.nseac.com
【写法指要】
1）本文是知识介绍说明文，或构造介绍说明文。文章主要介绍了计算机结构的简单知识，顺便提及了它的功能。在正文里，作者采用空间顺序写法，由外部结构写到内部结构。最后用类比法（analogy）将计算机操作同驾驶汽车作了比较。
2）类比法是一种逻辑推理方法，人们在文章中经常用到。英语中表达类比的方式有多种，本文用到的有“be similar to”，“compare…to…”，“just as”等。但是，类比法有或然性，须慎用。
