   Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone  1   another. In this way they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually  2   on one side. People used them for  3   meat and skin from dead animals, and  4   for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to  5   tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat-eating  6   such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more  7  .

   Working with tools also helped to  8   human intelligence(智力). The human brain grew bigger, and human began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools  9   people used, and perhaps  10   the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key  11   the success of mankind.

   Since 1960 a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon chip(硅片)-a little chip of silicon crystal. It is  12   than a fingernail, but it can  13   more than a million“bits”(字节)of information. It is  14   electronic brain.

   Every year these chips get leverer, but  15   size gets smaller, and their cost gets  16  . Human beings used  17   chips for more than two million years, but human  18   changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for  19   a few years, but life is changing faster every day.

    20   will life be like twenty years from now?
