Explanation:
Let’s go step by step.
Part 1: Fill in the blanks
We are given four words to choose from:
- monitor
- mouse
- keyboard
- CPU
Now read each sentence and think about what part does what:
1. *The ______ controls the computer.*
→ The
CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the “brain” of the computer — it processes instructions and controls everything.
✔ So answer:
CPU
2. *The ______ shows what is being done on the computer.*
→ That’s the
monitor — it displays images, text, etc.
✔ So answer:
monitor
3. *We can move the pointer on the screen using the ______.*
→ You use the
mouse to move the cursor/pointer.
✔ So answer:
mouse
4. *We can enter letters and numbers into the computer using the ______.*
→ That’s the
keyboard — you type on it.
✔ So answer:
keyboard
Part 2: Match the pictures to names
There are three pictures:
- First picture: a tower box (the main computer unit) → this houses the
CPU (though technically the CPU is inside, in basic school terms, this whole unit is often called the CPU or system unit). Looking at the name list: *Mouse*, *CPU*, *Monitor* — and the other two pictures clearly match mouse and monitor, so this one must be
CPU.
- Second picture: a screen with a keyboard in front → that’s the
monitor (the screen part). So match to
Monitor.
- Third picture: a cartoon mouse (with arms and legs!) → obviously the
Mouse.
So matching:
- Tower → CPU
- Screen+keyboard setup → Monitor
- Cartoon mouse → Mouse
Final Answer:
1. CPU
2. monitor
3. mouse
4. keyboard
Match:
- Tower image → CPU
- Screen image → Monitor
- Mouse image → Mouse
