📌 先看这里：这一课讲什么
- hardware（硬件）和 software（软件）是电脑相关最常被考的一对反义概念，B1 词表期待你能分清楚故障出在哪一边。
- 收录 Cambridge Preliminary（B1）官方词表「Communications and Technology」主题里跟电脑设备、操作有关的单词（computer、laptop、DVD player 等家电类词汇已收在《03 厨房与家电》，这里不重复）。
- 涵盖硬件设备（keyboard、mouse、printer、screen）、软件与网络操作（install、download、upload、connect）和网络场所（website、homepage、web page），每个词配一个常用搭配。
- 学完能看懂说明书里的操作指示，也能描述电脑或网络出问题时怎么形容。
