Book Club

Last week, I read a book. Name of my book is The Road Ahead author by Era. I chose this book because I want to know about Bill Gates. He succeed person. I borrowed this book in the library.

Bill Gates wrote his program for a computer when he was thirteen years old. His program tells a computer to do something. His program told the computer to play a game. This computer was very big and slow. It didn`t even have a computer screen. But he thought it was wonderful. He was just a kid, but the computer did everything he told it to do. He loves about computer. when he write a good program, it always works perfectly.

One day in 1972, when he was sixteen and his friend was nineteen, his friend showed him something that he was reading. It was about a company called Intel that had a new microprocessor chip. A microprocessor chip is the part of the computer that thinks.

In 1979, his friend and him moved Microsoft to a town near Seattle, Washington. The company was growing. Microsoft was doing so well because they made only software, never computers.

When he was young, he loved the encyclopedia that his famlilyhad. When he wanted to learn about somrthing, he could read about it and look at pictures of it. he spent a lot of time with the encyclopedia, and read a lot of it. Microsoft Encarta is an electronic encyclopedia. It has a million words but it also gas photographs, movies and music.

He wrote a lot of program for computer.

I like this book.
