 ТЕХТ 1

What is internet?

Intenet is а global network connecting millions of computers. More than 100 countries are linked into exchanges of data, news and opinions. Each Intemet computer, called а host, is independent. Its operators саn choose which Intenet services to use. The lnternet is not synonymous with World Wide Web.

What is а Host?

А host is а computer system that is accessed bу а user when there are two computer systems connected bу modems and telephone lines. The computer system that contains the data is called the host, and the computer at which the user sits is called the remote terminal.

What is World Wide Web?

А system of Intemet servers that support specially formatted documents. he documents are formatted in а markup language called HTML (HyperText Markup Language) that supports links to other documents, as well as graphics, audio, and video files. This means you сап jump from one document to another simply bу clicking the mouse button.

There are several applications called Web browsers that make it easy to access the World Wide Web. Two of the most popular browsers are Netscape Navigator and Мicrosoft's Intemet Explorer.

What is the Difference Between the Intemet and the World Wide Web?

Маnу people use the terms lnternet and World Wide Web (or simply the Web) interchangeably, but in fact the two terms are not synonymous. The Intenet and the Web are two separate but related things. The lnternet connects millions of computers together globally, forming а network in which any computer can communicate with any other computer as long as they are both connected to the Intemet. Information travels over the Intenet in many languages known as protocols.

The World Wide Web, or simply Web is built оn top of the Intenet. The Web also utilizes browsers, such as Intemet Explorer or Netscape, to access Web documents called Web pages. Web documents also contain graphics, sounds, text and video.

The Web is just one of the ways that information can bе sent and received over the Intemet. Intemet is used for e-mail, not the Web. So the Web is just а portion of the Intemet, but the two terms are not synonymous and should not bе confused.

Who invented the World Wide Web?

Tim Bemers-Lee (bom 1955) invented the World Wide Web. His first version of the Web was а program named "Enquire". At the time, Bemers-Leewas working at CERN, the European Particle Physics Laboratory located in Geneva, Switzerland. Не invented the system as а way of sharing scientific data (and other information) around the world, using the Intemet, а world-wide network of computers and hypertext documents. Не wrote the language HTML (HyperText Мark-up Language), the basic language for the Web, and devised URL's ( universal resource locators) to designate the location of each web page. НТТР (HyperText Transfer Protocol) was his set of rules for linking to pages оn the Web. After he wrote the first browser in 1990, the World Wide Web was up and going. Its growth was (and still is) phenomenal, and has changed the world, making information more accessible than ever before in history.

Bemers-Lee is now а Principal Research Scientist at the Laboratory for Computer Science at МIТ (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and the Director of the WЗ Consortium.

MY FAMILY

Let me introduce myself. My name is Vladimir Ivanov. I was born in Yekaterinburg in the family of lawyers. My family is the most precious thing for me, because this is where I find love and understanding, and support.

Our family is quite large. It consists of four people — my parents, my younger sister and me. My mother is an in-house lawyer at a big enterprise. My father is a judge. He works at court. My sister is a schoolgirl. After school I decided to follow my family tradition and chose the profession of a lawyer. I am a first-year student of the Ural State Law University. I study at the Institute of Justice. My dream is to become an investigator.

During the week I am very busy getting ready for lectures and seminars, so I like to have a rest at weekends. I like our late dinners with my family, when we all gather round the table. We talk, and joke, and have fun, because we are all friends. We share our problems and secrets with each other, and my parents often give my sister and me good advice.

In summer we go to our “dacha”. In fact, it’s just a small cottage on a small plot of land, but we like it a lot, and like to work in the garden, planting, digging, gathering strawberries and tomatoes. I do sports. Tastes differ, and different people do jogging, swimming, diving… But I adore playing tennis. My sister is also a tennis player. On Sundays we go to play tennis together. Sport helps people to become strong. It helps us to be more organized and better disciplined in our daily activity.

I am happy to have a loving and supportive family, and I hope that my own family will work on the same lines.
