PASSAGE
Text 1: Inside the Computer, Hardware Hardware is the physical parts of a computer that you can touch. It includes the keyboard, screen, and mouse. Inside the computer are important parts too. These include the processor and the memory. The processor is like the brain. It follows instructions and makes choices quickly. Memory helps the computer keep information ready to use. Storage devices, like hard drives, save files. They keep the files even when the computer is off. Hardware must work for a computer to run programs. Text 2: Software, The Instructions Software is a set of instructions that tells the hardware what to do. An operating system helps the computer run. It lets you open apps. Apps are programs that help you do tasks, like writing a report. Software can be updated to fix problems or add new features. Without software, the hardware would not know what steps to follow. People pick software based on what they need to do. Text 3: The Internet, Connecting Devices The internet is a network. It connects many computers and devices. When a device goes online, it can send and receive data. People use the internet to find information, watch videos, and talk to others. A router helps connect devices in a home or school. Websites are stored on computers called servers. The servers send information to users. A fast connection helps, but safe habits matter too.
