Reading «Living with risk» — λεξιλόγιο (Exercise 1)

Ερώτηση: Find a word or phrase in the text that means the following. connection = damaged = frightening = antenna = the fitting = trouble = that cannot be harmed by a disease or an illness = examined = a decision or an opinion given after testing or examining = danger =

Απάντηση:

  • connection → link(s) («the possible links between mobile phone radiation and brain damage»).
  • damaged → damage («brain damage»).
  • frightening → scary («another scary story about potential dangers»).
  • antenna → mast(s) («radiation from phone masts»· ίδιο με «antennas» παρακάτω, αλλά η άσκηση ζητά διαφορετική λέξη).
  • the fitting → installation («prevent the installation of transmitters»).
  • trouble → fuss («why all the fuss?»).
  • that cannot be harmed by a disease or an illness → immune («weaken the immune system»).
  • examined → explored («other effects had yet to be sufficiently explored»).
  • a decision or an opinion given after testing or examining → verdict («a final safety verdict»).
  • danger → hazard («the potential hazard»).

Σύνοψη: (ενδεικτική) connection=link(s), damaged=damage, frightening=scary, antenna=mast(s), the fitting=installation, trouble=fuss, immune to disease=immune, examined=explored, verdict=verdict, danger=hazard.

Κριτήρια αξιολόγησης:

  • «Antenna» και «mast» δεν είναι απόλυτα συνώνυμα (ένας ιστός/κεραία), αλλά είναι η λέξη που χρησιμοποιεί το κείμενο για να αναφερθεί σε «antenna».

True/False «Living with risk» (Exercise 2)

Ερώτηση: Read the article again and decide if the following statements are true (T) or false (F). 1. A study of the effects of electromagnetic radiation on people has shown that mobile use may cause premature Alzheimer's. 2. Europeans are worried more about electromagnetic radiation from phone masts. 3. Mobile phone users are exposed to much higher levels of radiation from masts. 4. Antennas could cause sleep disturbance and headaches. 5. Other effects of mobile phone radiation on people have to be studied. 6. We must decide whether we are going to use mobile phones more or less in the future. 7. We must wait to hear what scientists have to say. 8. There is not going to be a total proof that the use of mobile phones is harmless.

Απάντηση:

    1. Ψευδές: η μελέτη έγινε σε αρουραίους, όχι ανθρώπους («looked at the effects... on rats, not people»).
    1. Αληθές: «what's freaking Europeans out is the idea of electromagnetic radiation from phone masts».
    1. Ψευδές: εκτίθενται σε μεγαλύτερη ακτινοβολία από τα handsets, όχι τους ιστούς.
    1. Αληθές: «antennas could cause sleep disturbance and headaches and weaken the immune system».
    1. Αληθές: «other effects had yet to be sufficiently explored».
    1. Ψευδές: το κείμενο μιλά για ζύγισμα κόστους-οφέλους («whether the convenience... is worth the potential hazard»), όχι απλώς πόσο συχνά θα χρησιμοποιούμε κινητά.
    1. Ψευδές: «We can't wait for a final safety verdict».
    1. Αληθές: «there's no such thing as total proof, no such thing as zero risk».

Σύνοψη: (ενδεικτική) 1-Ψευδές, 2-Αληθές, 3-Ψευδές, 4-Αληθές, 5-Αληθές, 6-Ψευδές, 7-Ψευδές, 8-Αληθές.

Κριτήρια αξιολόγησης:

  • Η πρόταση 6 είναι η πιο δύσκολη: το κείμενο δεν λέει απλώς «πρέπει να αποφασίσουμε πόσο θα τα χρησιμοποιούμε», αλλά ότι πρέπει να ζυγίσουμε κόστος έναντι οφέλους.

Reading «History of the Internet» — λεξιλόγιο (Exercise 1)

Ερώτηση: Find a word or phrase in the text that means the following. involved = fighting against attack = web = took part = described exactly = created = made more efficient = dealing with = providing with money = fixing firmly =

Απάντηση:

  • involved → engaged («organisations engaged in defense-related research»).
  • fighting against attack → defense («Department of Defense», «defense-related research»).
  • web → network («a communications network»).
  • took part → make use of («Researchers and academics in other fields began to make use of the network») — φράση, όχι μονολεκτικό συνώνυμο.
  • described exactly → defined («which defined how electronic messages were packaged, addressed and sent»).
  • created → established («was established in 1969»).
  • made more efficient → upgraded («was upgraded to a high speed network»).
  • dealing with → handling («capable of handling far greater traffic»).
  • providing with money → funding («due to limited funding and support from the military»).
  • fixing firmly → embedding («a system of embedding links in a text»).

Σύνοψη: (ενδεικτική) involved=engaged, fighting against attack=defense, web=network, took part=make use of, described exactly=defined, created=established, made more efficient=upgraded, dealing with=handling, providing with money=funding, fixing firmly=embedding.

Κριτήρια αξιολόγησης:

  • Το «took part» αντιστοιχεί σε φράση («make use of»), όχι μονολεκτική λέξη — ερμηνευτική επιλογή, αφού το «engaged» χρησιμοποιείται ήδη για το «involved».

True/False Internet history (Exercise 2)

Ερώτηση: Read the text again and decide if the following statements are true (T) or false (F). 1. The Internet was born to provide a communications network which would allow computers to share information on scientific fields. 2. This communications network would work even in a nuclear war. 3. The early Internet was very easy to use. 4. The development of IP technology allowed users to be connected with other complex networks directly to the ARPANet. 5. The @ symbol is related to e-mail. 6. NSFNet established a distributed network supported by the military. 7. In 1989 the World Wide Web was established. 8. In 1991 the University of Minnesota developed the first really user-friendly access system to the Internet.

Απάντηση:

    1. Ψευδές: σκοπός ήταν δίκτυο για οργανισμούς αμυντικής έρευνας («defense-related research»), όχι γενικά «επιστημονικά πεδία».
    1. Αληθές: «that would work even if some of the sites were down or destroyed by nuclear war».
    1. Ψευδές: «There was nothing friendly about it... a very complex system».
    1. Αληθές: «It allowed users to link various branches of other complex networks directly to the ARPANet».
    1. Αληθές: «The @ symbol was picked to link the username and address» (E-mail, 1972).
    1. Ψευδές: το NSFNet ιδρύθηκε από το National Science Foundation (πολιτικό/επιστημονικό ίδρυμα)· το κείμενο συνδέει την έλλειψη στρατιωτικής χρηματοδότησης με το κλείσιμο του ARPANet, όχι με το NSFNet.
    1. Ψευδές: το 1989 απλώς προτάθηκε το πρωτόκολλο· έγινε World Wide Web το 1991.
    1. Αληθές: «In 1991 the first really user-friendly access system to the Internet was developed at the University of Minnesota».

Σύνοψη: (ενδεικτική) 1-Ψευδές, 2-Αληθές, 3-Ψευδές, 4-Αληθές, 5-Αληθές, 6-Ψευδές, 7-Ψευδές, 8-Αληθές.

Κριτήρια αξιολόγησης:

  • Προσοχή στις προτάσεις 6 και 7: το κείμενο διαχωρίζει ρητά τι έγινε το 1989 (πρόταση πρωτοκόλλου, κλείσιμο ARPANet) από τι έγινε το 1991 (Web, φιλικό interface).

The poem is urging us to keep up with the pace of change.

Απάντηση:

    1. Αληθές — «Rapid, / And irreversible.»
    1. Ψευδές — «I love the change, / The transformation fascinates me,» και η προτροπή «Embrace it.» δείχνουν πλήρη αποδοχή.
    1. Ψευδές — «Every day life as we know it will be no more, / Even the simple things have changed,»
    1. Αληθές — «Don't deny the coming, / Don't attempt to prevent the change, / Don't let it pass leaving you behind, / Don't fear that which is new, / ... Just so long as you / Embrace it.»

Σύνοψη: (ενδεικτική) 1-Αληθές («Rapid, And irreversible.»), 2-Ψευδές («I love the change... Embrace it.»), 3-Ψευδές («Every day life... will be no more»), 4-Αληθές («Don't deny the coming... Embrace it.»).
