The Internet Today

Everywhere we go, we hear about the Internet. It is on television, in magazines, newspapers, and in schools. It is estimated that thirty five or forty million users currently are on the Internet. According to recent statistical data, an average Internet call lasts five times longer than the average regular telephone call. 10 percent of the Internet calls last 6 hours or longer. This can cause an overload and, in turn, cause telephone network to fail.

First, at the end of the 80s, the Internet was used only for reading different texts. Then in the early 90̕s a way was made to see pictures and listen to sounds on the Internet. This breakthrough made the Internet to be most demanded means of communication, data saving and transporting.

However, today the Internet is much more than just pictures, text or sound. It is now filled with voice messages, video conferencing and video games.

Nowadays we no longer have to own a computer to access the Internet. Such device as WebTV allows our television to browse the Web and use electronic mail. Mobile phones are now also dialing up the Internet to provide e-mail and other services. But the telephone network was not designed and built to handle these sorts of things. Many telephone companies are spending much money to upgrade the telephone lines.

Ecological Problems

Since ancient times the nature has served people, being the source of their life. For thousands of years people lived in harmony with the environment and it seemed to them that natural riches were unlimited. But with the development of civilization man̕s interference in nature began to increase.

Large cities with thousands of smoky industrial enterprises appear all over the world today. The byproducts of their activity pollute the air we breathe, the water we drink, the land we grow grain and vegetables on.

Every year the world industry pollutes the atmosphere with about 1000 million tons of dust and other harmful substances. Many cities suffer from smog. Vast forests are cut and burnt in fire. Their disappearance upsets the oxygen balance. As a result some rare species of animals, birds, fish and plants disappear forever, a number of lakes and rivers dry up.

Environmental protection is of a universal concern. That is why serious measures to create a system of ecological security should be taken. Some progress has been already made in this direction. 159 countries – members of the UNO – have set up environmental protection agencies. Numerous conferences have been held by these agencies to discuss problems facing ecologically poor regions including the Aral Sea, the South Urals, Kuzbass, Donbass, Semipalatinsk and Chernobyl.

The Importance of Iron

For many years iron was so rare that it was only used for jewellery and ornaments and coins. Later, when some precious metals were discovered, it was used for weapons – first for swords and daggers, and later on for cannon – and for armour to protect soldiers against these weapons. It was also used for making small things such as nails, pots and pans, and hand tools.

During the eighteenth century iron began to be produced on a large scale, and cheaply enough to be used for large objects such as machines and even buildings. This was the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.

Iron and steel are the most important metals in use today; over 600 000 000 tonnes of steel are produced every year throughout the world, and that is about 100 times as much as the next commonest metal, aluminium. This is because iron and steel are cheap – about one sixth of the price of aluminium - and strong. Timber and concrete are actually cheaper than steel for a given strength but they are not suitable for making machines.

Iron production is very important for the economy of each country. Iron is used for production of different machines and equipment as well as medical devices, parts of computers and so on.

Notes:

sword - меч

dagger - кинжал

armour - броня

nail - гвоздь

concrete – бетон

Inventions

Inventions play a great part in the life of any society and the more inventions appear the more this country develops. Over the centuries man’s way of life was changed by a relatively small number of discoveries and inventions. But changes have come more and more often since the steam engine was invented in 1765 by James Watt. In just two hundred years, man advanced from horse power and candle light to airplanes and neon lamps. Our ideas about travel have changed completely since Gotlif Daimler and Charles Benz built their first petrol engine in 1885 and the Wright Brothers made the first flight in 1903.

Some people say we live in the age of computers; but it is also correctly described as the atomic age or the space age. Today, a journey from London to Cairo takes hours. Only a hundred years ago it took weeks. Today, man thinks seriously of going to Mars. 50 years ago they only dreamt about it. Today we produce energy by splitting the atom. A century ago, no one believed it could be split. Due to inventions technology has advanced so quickly that cars and televisions are out of date only a few years after they were made.

Nowadays it is difficult to say what great inventions will appear in several years, but even now many people are worried because it becomes clear that some of them can be dangerous.
