КОНТРОЛЬНАЯ РАБОТА № 1 ВАРИАНТ 1 Текст COMPUTERS AND THE INTERNET Computer is an electronic device that can receive a program (a set of instructions) and then carry out this program by calculating numerical information. The modern world of high technology is possible mainly due to the development of the computer. Computers have opened up a new era in manufacturing by means of automation, and they have enhanced modern communication systems. Personal computers are also called microcomputers or home computers. The most compact are called laptops. They are portable and work on built-in batteries. Personal computers are designed for use at homes, schools, and offices. At home they can be used for home management (balancing the family finances, for example) and for playing computer games, watching films or listening to music. Schoolchildren can use computers for doing their homework and many schools now have computers for independent learning and computer-literacy studies. In the office personal computers may be used for word processing, bookkeeping, storage and handling of necessary information. The Internet and its technology continue to have a profound effect in promoting the exchange of information, making possible rapid transactions among businesses, and supporting global collaboration among individuals and organizations. More than 100 million computers are connected via the global Internet in 2000, and even more are attached to enterprise internets. The development of the World Wide Web leads to the rapid introduction of new business tools and activities that may lead to annual business transactions on the Internet worth hundreds of billions of dollars.

ВАРИАНТ 3 Текст THE PROS AND CONS OF PLAYING COMPUTER VIDEO GAMES Social connection Only 3% of gamers are loners and never play with others, according to the latest Interactive Australia report by Bond University. Many games involve multi-person play, with players either in the same room or connected online. And, says Dr Lawrence Kutner, director of the Harvard Medical School’s Centre for Mental Health and Media and co-author of Grand Theft Childhood: The Surprising Truth About Violent Video Games and What Parents Can Do, games are a topic of conversation that allow kids to build relationships with their peers. "Boys and girls view game playing as a social activity, not an isolating one. For boys, game strategy is a topic of conversation. If you don’t play, you’re left out of that ubiquitous conversation." Better vision Video games can give you an eye for detail. Researchers from the University of Rochester found people who spent 30 hours training on action games over a month spotted targets on a cluttered screen 80% of the time; non-gamers managed this only 30% of the time. Allstate, a US insurer currently trialing video games for older drivers, has found that game software can improve visual skills important for safe driving. National Institutes of Health studies have shown the software reduces crash risk by up to 50%. Brain booster No longer labelled simply as evil time-wasters, video games are now considered a fast-track to a sharper mind. When researchers from Iowa State University studied a group of laparoscopic surgeons, they found those who played video games three or more hours a week were 27% faster and made 37% fewer errors. The surgeons were not playing games specifically designed for them, according to Dr Douglas Gentile, one of the study’s authors. "They were whatever off-the-shelf games they had played in the past."

ВАРИАНТ 4 Текст THE PROS AND CONS OF PLAYING COMPUTER VIDEO GAMES Painkiller Games are also proving to be a powerful analgesic. "Conscious attention is required for the experience of pain," says Professor David Patterson of the University of Washington’s Department of Rehabilitation Medicine. "Virtual-reality games are unusually attention-grabbing, leaving less attention to process incoming pain signals. "Snow World is the first custom-designed virtual reality game for burns patients. Patients who play it while having dressings changed report a 40-50% reduction in pain. Obesity New research from the University of Zaragoza in Spain shows that the risk of being overweight increases with every hour teens spend on virtual play. Yet games may also be part of the solution. A study from the University of Hong Kong found playing games in which players mimic the actions involved in sports are a good way of keeping fit. Players can use about the same energy as they would on a brisk walk. "Nintendo thumb" Hours of repeated movements can damage tendons and nerves in the thumbs. Physiotherapists are also alarmed by what slouching is doing to young spines." Most children sit on the floor playing games, or on their beds, or in chairs that are generally too big for them," says physiotherapist Wendy Emberson. "If they were at work, health and safety officers would have a field day! Violence Studies at the University of Missouri-Columbia have found violent games diminish players’ brain responses to images of real-life violence. And when players were given the chance to "punish" a fake opponent, those who’d recorded the lowest brain responses were most brutal. But does this relate to real-life aggression? The few studies in this area usually base their measure on "thoughts", says Jonathan Freedman from the University of Toronto.Раздел 1. Чтение Задание 1.Прочитайте и переведите текст письменно.
