Задание 4. Read the text. Then read the titles. Which of the following title is the best? a. How the Computer Works. b. How the Web Works. c. The World Wide Web. d. How the Internet Works. When users want to access the Web, they use the Web browser on their client computer to connect to a Web server. Client computers connect to the Web in one of two ways. Client computers with dedicated access to the Web connect directly to the Web through a router (a piece of computer hardware that determines the best way to connect client and server computers) or by being part of a larger network with a direct connection to the Web. Client computers with dial-up access to the Web connect to the Web through a modem,1___e)_____. Some modems send signals over cable television lines or special high-capacity telephone lines. The client computer and the Web server use a set of rules for passing information back and forth. The Web browser knows another set of rules with which it can open and display information that reaches the client computer. Web servers hold Web documents and the media associated with them.2____c)____. Client computers access information from Web servers, and any computer that a person uses to access the Web is a client, so a client could be any type of computer. The set of rules that clients and servers use to talk to each other is called a protocol. The Web, and all Internet formats, uses the protocol called TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). However, each part of the Internet—such as the Web, gopher systems, and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) systems—uses a slightly different system to transfer files between clients and servers. The address of a Web document helps the client computer find and connect to the server that holds the page. The address of a Web page is called a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). A URL is a compound code that tells the client’s browser three things: the rules the client should use to reach the site, the Internet address that uniquely designates the server, and the location within the server’s file system for a given item. An example of a URL is http://encarta.msn.com/. The first part of the URL, http://, shows that the site is on the World Wide Web. Most browsers are also capable of retrieving files with formats from other parts of the Internet, such as gopher and FTP. Other Internet formats use different codes in the first part of their URLs—for example, gopher uses gopher:// and FTP uses ftp://. The next part of the URL, encarta.msn.com, gives the name, or unique Internet address, of the server on which the Web site is stored. Some URLs specify certain directories or files, such as http://encarta.msn.com/explore/default.asp—explore is the name of the directory in which the file default.asp is found. The Web holds information in many forms, including text, graphical images, and any type of digital media files: including video, audio, and virtual reality files. Some elements of Web pages are actually small software programs in their own right. These objects, called applets (3___a)____), follow a set of instructions written by the person that programmed the applet. Applets allow users to play games on the Web, search databases, perform virtual scientific experiments, and many other actions. The codes that tell the browser on the client computer how to display a Web document correspond to a set of rules called Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). Each Web document is written as plain text, and the instructions that tell the client computer how to present the document are contained within the document itself, encoded using special symbols called HTML tags. The browser knows how to interpret the HTML tags, so the document appears on the user’s screen as the document designer intended. In addition to HTML, some types of objects on the Web use their own coding. Applets, for example, are mini-computer programs that are written in computer programming languages such as Visual Basic and Java. Client-server communication, URLs, and HTML allow Web sites to incorporate hyperlinks, which users can use to navigate through the Web. Hyperlinks are often phrases in the text of the Web document that link to another Web document by providing the document’s URL when the user clicks their mouse on the phrase.4____b)______. Hyperlinks allow users to jump between diverse pages on the Web in no particular order. 5____f)____, and scientists believe it bears a striking resemblance to the way the human brain accesses stored information. Hyperlinks make referencing information on the Web faster and easier than using most traditional printed documents.

He dwells on the ways of connection with Internet through a router or with dial-up access, and describes us definition between them. After that the author gives a detailed description of the address of a Web document which helps the client computer find and connect to the server that holds the page. It is called a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). Also the author touches upon some programs which help users to work effectively in the web. These objects which called applets are written by the programmer. The text gives available information on the codes that tell the browser on the computer how to display web document. At the end of the article the author describes the way how to navigate through the web faster and easier. Hyperlinks allow users to jump between pages on the web in no particular order. To sum up, this article gives us very useful information how the web works, which programs and objects can help to receive the information in the web.
