How do we use the Net?
We asked members of one family to tell us what they use the Internet for and why. Here is what they told us.
   A.  Granddad Peter.
I might be over 80 but the Internet is invaluable to me. At my age it’s not always so easy to get about and my friends and family are scattered all over the globe. It's difficult to visit and have face-to-face conversations very often. It's a bit pricy too! Phoning isn't convenient because of the different time zones. I don't think my brother in Aus­tralia would appreciate being woken up at three in the morning just for me to say hello! So I keep in touch by e-mail and it's very important to me. It took me a while to get the hang of it.
   B.   Daughter Lynne
I must admit that I'm a spendaholic and I'm on auction sites all the time. I can't resist a bargain and I love the excitement of bidding against other people and never being sure whether you're going to win or not. It's quite addictive so I have to be careful or else I would be completely broke! I think it's incredible that whatever you're looking to buy, someone out there has got it to sell.
   C.  Mum Karen
I find the Net useful for downloading information for my stu­dents. You can also access sites that give you free lesson plans and good, imaginative ideas for making lessons interesting. There's such a lot of knowledge out there too. To get the answers to the kind of ques­tions I have, it would take hours with piles of books and I simply don't have the time. For me the Net is a lifeline!
   D.  Dad Oliver
My big thing is news and sports and I'm always online checking the latest scores. I work shifts too, so I often miss the regular news slots and with the Net I can always watch news clips of programmes that were on earlier. It also brings you breaking news and with the more controversial issues if you want to, you can read people's com­ments and of course, make your own. I do that quite often. And there are also online newspapers. If I don't get a paper, I can always go on­line and click on to the newspapers website. It's easier to choose what you want to read rather than leafing through the papers which can be so big these days.
Which person says…
1.                I see the Net as time saving?
2.              I sometimes share my opinions with others?
3.              I use it to get help with my work?
4.              I don’t always get what I want?
5.               It took time to work out how to use the Net?

 Read the text and  find the equivalents of the following words:
 Позначки, домашня сторінка, структура сайта, зміст, соціальні сіті, потребувати,послуги.
   A website, also written as Web site,[1] web site, or simply site,[2] is a set of related web pages served from a single web domain. A website is hosted on at least one web server, accessible via a network such as the Internet or a private local area network through an Internet address known as a Uniform Resource Locator. All publicly accessible websites collectively constitute the World Wide Web.
   A webpage is a document, typically written in plain text interspersed with formatting instructions of Hypertext Markup Language (HTML, XHTML). A webpage may incorporate elements from other websites with suitable markup anchors.
  Webpages are accessed and transported with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which may optionally employ encryption (HTTP Secure, HTTPS) to provide security and privacy for the user of the webpage content. The user's application, often a web browser, renders the page content according to its HTML markup instructions onto a display terminal.
  The pages of a website can usually be accessed from a simple Uniform Resource Locator (URL) called the web address. The URLs of the pages organize them into a hierarchy, although hyperlinking between them conveys the reader's perceived site structure and guides the reader's navigation of the site which generally includes a home page with most of the links to the site's web content, and a supplementary about, contact and link page.
   Some websites require a subscription to access some or all of their content. Examples of subscription websites include many business sites, parts of news websites, academic journal websites, gaming websites, file-sharing websites, message boards, web-based email, social networking websites, websites providing real-time stock market data, and websites providing various other services (e.g., websites offering storing and/or sharing of images, files and so forth).
