Do you want to say that what you think in a letter to Jimmy Carter, president of the United States? You will
get an answer from him-written in ink, not typed-after only a few days. Jimmy Carter gets about 4,000 letters
every week. He answers every letter on special White House paper. But he doesn't need a lot of time for it. In
fact, he only gives 20 minutes a week to look at his private letters. He has the most modern computer in the
world to help him. It costs about US$1,200,000.
This computer has its own rooms on the first floor of the White House: It has a lot of electronic pens (电
子笔) and they write like the President writes, in his favourite light blue ink. Each letter takes less than a second
to write. A White House official said,'It's not important that the letters come from a computer. Each letter says what the president wants to say.'
