Donald lived in a old houseboat and wore his sailor (海员) jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star

cartoons. He also made educational (教育的) films about the place of the USA in the world, and safely in the

computers were large and expensive. Computers didn"t work well. If one computer in network Broken 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 one part of the network was not working information could be send
through another part. In this way the 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
