THE FUTURE OF CYBERSPACE
1. In the last thirty years, the Internet has grown dramatically. In 1983, only 200 computers were connected to the Internet: now there are millions and this growth is going to continue. Some experts are pessimistic about the future. One worry is the activity of cyber-criminals. Even now, young hackers can get into the computers of banks and governments. In the future, cyber-terrorists may “attack” the world’s computers, cause chaos and make planes and trains crash.
2. However, many people are optimistic about the future of the Internet. Already users can buy books, find out about holiday offers, book tickets, go shopping and get all sorts of information from the Internet. It is clear that the Net is as interesting and exciting as the people and organizations that are connected to it. The Internet enables you to do a lot of things simultaneously. You can read the latest copy of your favorite newspaper and send e-mail to someone. The arrival of digital TV promises even more exciting things. Some specialists beleive that in the future the television will be probably replaced by the Internet. The postal service may also disappear with the increasing use of e-mail. We will probably live in virtual reality; we will work in virtual offices, shop in virtual supermarkets, and we will even study in virtual schools and universities.

THE RAPID RATE OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND THE USER
1. The first microcomputer was built in 1975. Since that time many models have been introduced with increasing speeds and capacities. Microcomputers are used at schools, in homes, and in offices. Today sophisticated software is made up of hundreds of thousands of instructions. The advance of technology continues making the buying decision more complex. It isn’t just hardware – new, improved sofware packages appear on the market almost as soon as users have mastered the prior ones.
2. What’s driving this continual march? There is no doubt that users want more powerful, easier-to-use technology. There is also no doubt that computer firms want to turn out more product to generate more profits. So what if users want to stay with what they have now? Staying with the old software is possible. You can still use the software to do what you’ve always done, but you risk being left behind by the last-moving train of technological advance. No one wants to be left behind, watching everyone else move up to the new technology standards.
3. So there are risks to standing still. But there are also risks to forever riding the wave of technological advance which can be expensive. You have to throw out perfectly good hardware and software and purchase the latest available. Your new computing equipment should help you become more productive. But what do you do when the next sofware or the next microprocessor come out? When should you upgrade again? Unfortunately, there are no easy answers, just a wide range of options.

Упражнение №5. Перепишите и письменно переведите текст.
1. When computers were first introduced in the 1940’s and 50’s, every program written had to provide instructions that told the computer how to use devices such as the printer, how to store information on a disk, as well as how to perform several other tasks not necessarily related to the program. The additional program instructions for working with hardware devices were very complex and time consuming. So the programmers faced problems which should be solved.
2. The programmers soon realized it would be smarter to develop one program that could control the computer’s hardware. If other programmers had needed such program, they would have used it. Because of these reasons they created the first operating system. Today operating systems control and manage the use of hardware devices such as the printer or mouse, provide disk management by letting you store information in files and let you run programs such as basic word processor. Lastly, the operating system provides several of its own commands that help you to use the computer.
3. Windows 95 and Windows 98 being DOS compatible are still the most popular user-oriented operating systems with friendly interface and multitasking capabilities. The new series of operating systems by Microsoft are Windows Millennium, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Each of these new products is addressed to the both corporate and private clients. New strategy of the Microsoft is aimed at creating a one for all product, which is to be useful for both beginners and advanced users.

The next year, he and Paul Allen wrote an operating programme for the Altair, one of the world’s first microcomputers. The two friends started Microsoft in 1975 and very soon it became a big success. In 1980, Gates bought an operating system called DOS. He made some changes to it and called it MS-DOS. He sold the rights to use the system to IBM. MS-DOS became the standard operating system for all PCs of that time. Microsoft has also developed such well-known programmes as Windows, Excel and Internet Explorer. Bill’s dream is to computerize everything – TVs, telephones, lights, even the way you cook dinner.

SOME MORE FACTS ABOUT COMPUTERS
1. The history of computing covers less than two hundred years. The early years from 1830-1950 were considered its infancy. Charles Babbage invented the difference and the analytical engine. The difference engine was used in finding errors in handwritten tables. The analytical engine was designed for mathematical computations. This machine had five features found in today’ computer hardware: there must be input, processing, output, controlling and storage devices.
2. The vacuum tube was used as primary computer component during the first generation of computers. Punched cards and magnetic tape were used for secondary storage. The second generation computers were significantly improved with the transistor. The integrated circuit replaced the transistors in the third generation computers. The fourth generation introduced the microprocessor on a chip. The semiconductor chip is made of a crystalline substance conducting electricity. When introduced the chip greatly influenced the computer technology. The fifth generation has arrived recently. New areas are developing in this generation, including artificial intelligence, expert systems and natural languages.
3. A wide variety of computers are used today, but they can be broadly classified as special and general-purpose computers. You should know the difference. Special-purpose computers are able to accept only certain types of input and present a narrow range of outputs. The most common kind of general-purpose computer in use today is the personal computer or microcomputer. It gets the name microcomputer from the tiny electronic device, called the microprocessor, that does the actual processing.

SOME MORE FACTS ABOUT THE INTERNET
1. The Internet originally appeared as the US Department of Defence programme. Established in 1968, this programme was to provide a secure communications network for organizations, each being engaged in defence research work. Scientists were allowed to use this network and later a similar and parallel network named National Science Foundation Net (shortly NSFNet) was created. Using much of the first technology the new network was able to handle greater amount of data carrying it at a rate of 45 million bit per second.
2. Nowadays, on the one hand, the Internet development is known to be governed by the Internet Architecture Board. On the other hand, the Internet Network Information Centre is responsible for the naming of computers and networks. To expand the network’s utility a lot of programmes are being developed, the network games, monetary transactions, virtual museums also helping to test the limits of Internet technology.
3. It should be noted that companies often develop private internal networks for sharing information and collaborating within the company, these networks usually being isolated from the surrounding Internet by special computer-security system.

COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN (CAD)
1. The introduction of microprocessors and computers has made possible the development of computer-aided design (CAD) technologies. When using these systems a designer draws a part and indicates its dimensions with the help of either a mouse, light pen, or other input device.
