键盘字母，为什么不是按顺序排的？

Look at the top of your keyboard. 看看你键盘的最上面一排。 The letters do not go A, B, C. 字母不是按A、B、C排的。 They start with Q, W, E, R, T, Y. 开头是Q、W、E、R、T、Y。 This layout is called QWERTY. 这个排法，就叫QWERTY。 Legend says it was made for old typewriters. 传说呀，它是为老打字机设计的。 Old machines got stuck if you typed too fast. 老机器打字太快，就会卡键。 So common letters were put far apart. 于是常用字母被故意隔开了。 Today we still use the same old order. 到今天，我们还在用这个老排法。
