There are 40 million Internet users today. _________ 1. THE INTERNET originated in the early 1970s when the United States wanted to make sure that people could communicate after a nuclear war. This needed a free and independent communication network without a centre and it led to a network of computers that could send each other e-mail through cyberspace. 2. Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web (WWW) when he discovered a way to jump to different files on this computer using the random, or unplanned, links between them. He then wrote a simple coding system, called HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), to create links to files on any computer connected to the network. This was possible because each file had an individual address, or URL (Uniform Resource Locator). He then used a set of transfer rules, called HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol), to link Web files together across the Internet. Berners-Lee also invented the world's first browser. This lets you locate and view Web pages and also navigate from one link to 110 another. 3. The WWW became available to everyone in 1991 and the number of Internet users grew from 600,000 to 40 million in five years. Today, that number is much larger and there are now many browsers that provide Web pages, information and other services. You can also do research, download music files, play interactive games, shop, talk in chat rooms and send and receive e-mail on the WWW.

D. 114 SCHOOLING OF THE FUTURE (additional work on futureprediction) 1) Leia o texto Schooling of the future e responda à seguinte pergunta: a) O narrador é a favor ou contra os desenvolvimentos mencionados? Schooling of the Future 1. In the near future all schools and libraries will be linked together to form a National Grid for Learning – just like the electricity grid which connects all consumers. Each pupil will have a palmtop linked to the school network and to the Internet. All pupils from the age of nine will have email accounts. 2. All communications between the Department for Education and schools will be by computer links. Learning and administration will be paper-free. The advantages are obvious. Pupils will have access to a world of learning. The resources available through the Grid will be greater than any one school can provide. 3. In addition, all pupils will become familiar with information technology at an early stage in their school life. Their computer skills will help them when they leave school and enter college or go into work. All study and most jobs in the future will require computer literacy. These developments will equip our pupils for an IT-based future. 4. Email will allow pupils to communicate easily with other pupils in different parts of the country and in different parts of the world. It will develop communications skills and encourage an international outlook. 5. Finally, by freeing teachers from paperwork, IT will give them more time for their real job of inspiring students. 2) Leia o texto novamente e responda se as sentenças são falsas ou verdadeiras. Indique em que parágrafo e linha você encontrou a resposta: a) Os estudantes terão acesso a um mundo de conhecimento porque todos terão um palmtop conectado com a rede escolar e a Internet. 115 b) Os estudantes estarão familiarizados com a TI a partir da adolescência. c) Quando os alunos chegarem à faculdade ou ao mercado de trabalho não terão dificuldade com a informática. d) As habilidades de comunicação dos estudantes serão aperfeiçoadas por meio dos video games. e) Os professores terão mais trabalhos para corrigir. 3) Relacione as palavras da primeira coluna à sua definição na segunda: a) allow (v) a) a place where books, documents, CDs b) available etc are available for you to look at or c) account borrow d) literacy e) library b) an arrangement you have with a company or Internet PROVIDER to use a service they provide c) able to be obtained, taken, or used d) the ability to read and write e) to give someone or something the time or opportunity to do something 4) A que se referem as seguintes palavras: a) their ( par. 3 – linha 2)________________________________________________ b) them (par.3, linha 2) ___________________________________________________ c) them (par.5, linha 1) ___________________________________________________ 5) Volte ao texto e escolha uma previsão que você acha tem mais probabilidade de acontecer e traduza-a.

Finding information on the World Wide Web needs an Internet search engine such as Google, Alta Vista or Yahoo. Search engines have a text box where you type in a keyword or words. A search engine is a software program that reads the keywords in the text box and searches the Internet for web pages, Websites, and other Internet files that use them. These documents are shown on the computer screen in a results listing. 2. When carrying out searches, you should usually be specific and brief in your choice of words. If the keyword is too general, or includes too many different meanings, the results listing may not be useful. Different search engines categorize information in different ways, which changes the way they store and retrieve it. 3. Using upper case letters (capital letters) in a keyword search will only retrieve documents that are upper case. Typing in lower case (no capitals) is usually better 117 because search engines will retrieve documents that use both upper case and lower case letters. 4. You can narrow a search engine using logical operators such as AND, OR and NOT. AND retrieves all the words typed in the text box, OR retrieves either of the words and NOT excludes words. Spelling is important when typing in keywords, but a search engine will not usually read punctuation, prepositions, and articles. 4. Abaixo você encontrará instruções sobre o que deve e o que não deve ser feito quando se procura informações na Internet. Assinale as instruções que você considera adequadas. a) Escolha palavras que são diferentes do item que você quer. ____________ b) Dê a palavra-chave mais adequada para descrever o que você quer. ___________ c) Use várias palavras-chave. ________________________________ d) Tente usar uma palavra-chave que tenha somente um significado. __________ e) Digite suas palavras-chave somente em letras minúsculas._______________ f) Use operadores lógicos para delimitar sua pesquisa. __________________ g) Use ponto final e vírgula. _________________________ h) Não use palavras como AT, IN, ON, A/AN e THE. _____________________ 5. Encontre palavras e expressões no texto que signifiquem: a) claro e exato (§ 2) ______________________________________________ b) colocar em grupos semelhantes (§2) ________________________________ c) recuperar, trazer de volta (§2) _________________________________________ d) diminuir, limitar, delimitar (§4) ______________________________________ e) palavras matemáticas (§4) ____________________________________ 6) Encontre no texto duas sentenças com verbos modais que indicam: a) Previsão para o futuro _____________________________________________ b) Conselho_________________________________________________________ 7) Encontre no texto um adjetivo comparativo irregular: ______________________ 8- Diga a que se referem as palavras: a) them (§1, linha 5) ________________________________________________ b) that (§3, linha 2) _________________________________________________ 118 VOZ PASSIVA I-Como formamos a voz passiva em português?

Formamos a voz passiva usando o verbo TO BE (presente)+o particípio passado do verbo principal (-ed para verbos regulares e a 3ª coluna para verbos irregulares). 4. Para outros tempos verbais, quem define o tempo é sempre o verbo TO BE.

Algumas empresas estão usando software baseado na tecnologia Java em seus Web sites internos com a finalidade de facilitar a comunicação e o fluxo de informação exclusivamente entre os departamentos. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ 1. The Java platform is based on the power of networks and the idea that the same software should run on many different kinds of computers, consumer gadgets, and other devices. Since its initial commercial release in 1995, Java technology has grown in popularity and usage because of its portability. The Java platform allows you to run the same Java application on lots of different kinds of computers. Any Java application can 124 easily be delivered over the Internet, or any network, without operating system or hardware platform compatibility issues. For example, you could run a Java technology based application on a PC, a Macintosh computer, a network computer, or even new technologies like Internet screen phones. Furthermore, the Java platform was designed to run programs securely on networks, which means that it integrates safely with the existing systems on your network. 2. The idea is simple: Java technology-based software can work just about everywhere. Java technology components don't care what kind of computer, phone, TV, or operating system they run on. They just work on any kind of compatible device that supports the Java platform. 3. Java technology allows programmers and users to do new things with Web pages that were impossible before. With Java technology, the Internet and private networks become your computing environment. For example, users can securely access their personal information and applications when they're far away from the office by using any computer that's connected to the Internet; soon they'll be able to access tailored applications from a mobile phone base on the Java platform, or even use smart cards as a pass key to everything from the cash machine to ski lifts. 4. The Java platform is being built into next-generation telephones, TV set-top boxes, smart cards that fit in your wallet, and many other consumer and business devices. Java technology-based software includes: programs written in the Java programming language can run directly on your computer (without requiring a browser), or on servers, on large mainframe computers, or other devices. 5. For example, Java technology-based software running on servers in large companies monitors transactions and ties together data from existing computer systems. Other companies are using Java technology-based software on their internal Web sites to streamline communication and the flow of information between departments, suppliers and customers.

Communications purporting to be from popular social web sites, auction sites, online payment processors or IT administrators are commonly used to lure the unsuspecting public. Phishing is typically carried out by e-mail or instant messaging and it often directs users to enter details at a fake website whose look and feel are almost identical to the legitimate one. Even when using server authentication, it may require tremendous skill to detect that the website is fake. Phishing is an example of social engineering techniques used to fool users and exploits the poor usability of current web security technologies. Attempts to deal with the growing number of reported phishing incidents include legislation, user training, public awareness, and technical security measures. A phishing technique was described in detail in 1987, and the first recorded use of the term "phishing" was made in 1996. The term is a variant of fishing probably influenced by phreaking, and alludes to baits used to "catch" financial information and passwords. 1) Sobre o que é o texto? 2) Qual o tempo verbal predominante? 3) Procure no texto dois grupos nominais e traduza-os. 4) Procure uma sentença na voz passiva e traduza-a. 128 5) Procure uma sentença com um VERBO MODAL e diga qual idéia que ele transmite. 6) Explique a formação das seguintes palavras: PALAVRA PREFIXO SUFIXO JUSTAPOSIÇÃO CLASSE DE PALAVRA criminally fraudulent information usernames passwords administrators communication typically server growing security phishing 7- Explique as palavras de referência: a) such as – parágrafo 1 – linha 2. ________________________________________ b) it – parágrafo 2- linha 1. ______________________________________________ 129 BIBLIOGRAFIA: CRUZ, Décio Torres, ROSAS, Marta, SILVA, Alba Valéria (2003).
