The Magic Box It was Christy’s birthday. Aunt Rosa came in.
“Hi, Christy.” said aunt Rosa and took out a red box from her bag.
Christy looked inside the box but she didn’t find anything there. There was only a note”This is a Magic Box. Special things come in a magic packets.”
Christy ran outside with her box, sat on the bench, closed her eyes and said” I wish I could have a puppy.”
The next morning Christy took the Magic Box to the flower shop. She thought that maybe Mrs. Hensen could tell her what the note meant. But Mrs. Hensen didn’t tell her. She only asked her to bring 3 plants to the fruit shop in her Magic Box and put a small bunch of violets in it.
Soon Christy was in the fruit shop and gave Mr. Perz the plants. He asked her to take some bananas to Mrs. Carter at the pet shop. He put bananas and 3 apples for Christy in the Magic Box.
Christy thanked and went to the pet shop. It was her favourite place When she got there, she looked at the puppies in the window. Her favourite was a small brown puppy.
Mrs. Carter thanked for bananas and Christy asked her what the note meant. Mrs. Carter smiled and asked Christy to close her eyes.
When she opened her eyes she saw a small brown puppy inside the Magic Box. She was very happy she understood what the note in the box meant.

Аппаратное обеспечение ввода
Назначение оборудования ввода - сбор данных и их преобразование в форму, подходящую для компьютерной обработки. Наиболее распространенным устройством ввода является клавиатура. Это очень похоже на пишущую машинку.
Мышь представляет собой портативное устройство, подключенное к компьютеру с небольшого кабеля. При наведении курсора мыши на коврик для мыши курсор перемещается по экрану. Когда курсор достигает нужного места, пользователь обычно нажимает кнопку мыши один или два раза, чтобы сообщить о выборе меню или команде компьютеру.
Световое перо использует светочувствительный фотоэлемент для сигнализации положения экрана на компьютере. Другим типом оборудования ввода является оптико-электронный сканер, который используется для ввода графики, а также набора символов. Микрофон и видеокамера также могут быть использованы для ввода данных в компьютер. Электронные камеры становятся очень популярными среди потребителей за их относительно низкую цену и удобство.
