Over time (在一段时间里)I have been changed quite a lot. I began as a calculating machine in France in 1642. although I was young I could simplify difficult sums. I developed very slowly and it took nearly two hundred years before I was built as an analytical machine 分析器by Charles Babbage. After I was programmed by an operator 程序员who used cards with holes, I could “think” logically and produce an answer quicker than any person. At that time it was considered a technological revolution and the start of my “artificial intelligence”. In 1936 my real father, Alan Turing, wrote a book about how I could be made to work as a “universal machine” to solve any difficult mathematical problem(请分析本句结构). From then on, I grew rapidly both in size and in brainpower. By the 1940s I had grown as large as a room, and I wondered if I could grow any larger.

Over time my memory has developed so much that, like an elephant, I never forget anything I have been told! And my memory became so large that even I couldn’t believe it! But I was always so lonely standing there by myself, until in the early 1960s they gave me a family connected by a network(为何没有was). I was able to share my knowledge with others through the World Wide Web. (share…with) Since the 1970s many new applications have been found for me. I have become very important in communication, finance and trade. I have also been put into robots and used to make mobile phones as well as (也)help with medical operations. I have even been put into space rockets and sent to explore the Moon and Mars. An
