    READING 1

    11. Read Text 3 A and say whether the Internet is a real technological breakthrough of the XX century.

    TEXT 3 A

    The Internet

    The Internet, a global computer network, embracing millions of users all over the world, began in the United States in 1969 as a military experiment. It was designed to survive a nuclear war. Information sent over the Internet takes the shortest path available from one computer to another. Because of this, any two computers on the Internet will be able to stay in touch with each other as long as there is a single route between them. This technology is called packet switching. Owing to this technology, if some computers on the network are knocked out (by a nuclear explosion, for example), information will just route around them. One such packet-switching network already survived a war. It was the Iraqi computer network, which was not knocked out during the Gulf War.

    Most of the Internet host computers (more than 50%) are in the United States, while the rest are located in more than 100 other countries. Although the number of host computers can be counted fairly accurately, nobody knows exactly how many people use the Internet; there are millions, their number is growing by thousands each month worldwide.

    The most popular Internet service is e-mail. Most people having access to the Internet use the network only for sending and receiving e-mail messages. However, other popular services are available on the Internet like Telnet which is used to log on to a remote computer that is attached to internet, Newsgroup - offers a forum for people to discuss topics of common interests. Instant Messaging offers real time chat between individuals and group of people.

    In many developing countries the Internet may provide business people with a reliable alternative to the expensive and unreliable telecommunication systems of these countries. Commercial users can communicate over the Internet with the rest of the world and do it very cheaply. When they send e-mail messages, they only have to pay for phone calls to their local service providers, not for calls across their countries or around the world. But who actually pays for sending e-mail messages over the Internet long distances, around the world? The answer is very simple: a user pays his/her service provider a monthly or hourly fee. Part of this fee goes towards its costs to connect to a larger service provider. And part of the fee got by the larger provider goes to cover its cost of running a worldwide network of wires and wireless stations. But saving money is only the first step. If people see that they can make money from the Internet, commercial use of this network will drastically increase. For example, some western architecture companies and garment centers transmit their basic designs and concepts over the Internet into China, where they are reworked and refined by skilled – but inexpensive – Chinese computer-aided-design specialists.

    However, some problems still remain. The most important is security. When you send an e-mail message to somebody, this message can travel through many different networks and computers. The data is constantly being directed towards its destination by special computers called routers. Because of this, it is possible to get into any of computers along the route, intercept and even change the data being sent over the Internet. In spite of the fact that there are many strong encoding programs available, nearly all the information being sent over the Internet is transmitted without any form of encoding, i.e. “in the clear”. But when it becomes necessary to send important information over the network, these encoding programs may be useful. Some American banks and companies even conduct transactions over the Internet. However, there are still both commercial and technical problems, which will take time to be resolved.

    Computers have been used to (1) ________information between multiple locations since the 1950s. The U.S. military's SAGE system was the first large-scale example of such a system, which led to a number of special-purpose commercial systems such as Sabre. In the 1970s, computer engineers at research institutions throughout the United States began to (2) ________ their computers together using telecommunications technology. The effort was funded by ARPA, and the computer network that resulted was calledthe ARPANET. The technologies that made the Arpanet possible spread and evolved.

    In time, the (3) ________spread beyond academic and military institutions and became known as the Internet. The emergence of networking involved a redefinition of the nature and boundaries of the computer. Computer operating systems and (4) ________were modified to include the ability to define and (5) ________the resources of other computers on the network, such as (6) ________ devices, stored (7) ________, and the like, as extensions of the resources of an individual (8) ________. Initially these facilities were available primarily to people working in high-tech environments, but in the 1990s the spread of applications like (9) ________and the World Wide Web, combined with the development of cheap, fast networking technologies. In fact, the number of computers that are networked is growing phenomenally. A very large proportion of personal computers regularly connect to the (10) ________ to communicate and receive information. "Wireless" networking, often utilizing mobile phone networks, has meant networking is becoming increasingly ubiquitous even in mobile computing environments.
