Have you ever used a typewriter? If not, you've surely seen one. This useful machine has a most interesting history.

Although you may think that the typewriter is a modern invention, the idea goes as far back as the early 1700s. It was then, in 1714, that England's Queen Anne granted Henry Mill the first patent（专利）for a machine that typed letters called An Artificial (人造的) Machine or Method For Impressing Letters. The machine remained just a design on paper.

Various other typing machines were invented over the next hundred years or so. However, all of them had the same problem: they required more time to use than writing the same material by hand. Things improved a little around 1829 when an American named William Burt invented a machine called the desired letter. He also pressed a bar to link the paper. The machine printed letters well, but it had a top speed of only five words a minute.

Finally, in 1874, a more practical machine was introduced to the public. Invented by an American Christopher Sholes and some of his companions (同事), the machine was set up by E. Remington and Sons and called the "Remington Model No. 1". It was the first typewriter to have the kind of typewriter keyboard we know today.

You may have a look at the typewriter keyboard and wonder about the strange arrangement of letters. As a matter of fact, the keys were so arranged to force typists to type slower. Typing too fast caught the keys of Remington 1 pressed together. They still follow this early arrangement of letters of the keyboard.

11. What does the writer mainly talk about in this passage?

A. What a typewriter is.

B. How the typewriter was invented.

C. The function and use of a typewriter.

D. Remington and his invention.

12."An Artificial Machine" was _______ .

A. the first typewriter that was made by Henry Mill

B. highly praised by the British people as the first typewriter

C. hardly produced at all

D. made as the first typewriter in 1714

13. The first typewriters were made ________ .

A. from 1700 to 1714

B. in the eighteenth century

C. in the nineteenth century

D. in the twentieth century

14. Who invented a machine called the desired letter?

A. Henry Mill. B. Queen Anne. C. Christopher Sholes. D. William Burt.

15. That the keyboard of Remington 1 was designed so was because ________ .

A. the inventor wanted to make typing slower than writing

B. the inventor meant to prevent the keys from being pressed together

C. it was arranged strangely

D. it has nothing to do with Remington
