Fill in each of the blanks with one of the words given in the following list, making changes if necessary:CD-ROM stands for compact disc read-only memory. Unlike floppy and hard disks, which use magnetic charges to represent 1s and 0s, optical discs use reflected light. On aCD-ROM disc, 1s and 0s are represented by flat areas and bumpy (高低不平的) areas (called“pits”) on its bottom surface. The CD-ROM disc is read by a laser that projects a tiny beam oflight on these areas. The amount of reflected light determines whether the area represents a 1or a 0.Like a commercial CD found in music stores, a CD-ROM is a “read-only” disc.Read-only means it cannot be written on or erased by the user. Thus, you as a user haveaccess only to the data imprinted (压印) by the publisher.A single CD-ROM disc can store 650 megabytes (兆字节) of data. That is equivalent to451 floppy disks. With that much information on a single disc, the time to retrieve or accessthe information is very important. An important characteristic of CD-ROM drives is theiraccess rate.IV.

计算机英语实用教程第三版课后练习题含答案

计算机英语实用教程第三版课后练习题含答案

计算机英语实用教程第三版课后练习题含答案第一章练习题答案1. What is the difference between a CPU and a GPU?A CPU (Central Processing Unit) is a general-purpose processor that performs tasks that require complex arithmetic and logical operations. A GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), on the other hand, is a specialized processor that is designed to handle tasks that involve highly parallelizable computations, such as those required for rendering graphics.2. What is the difference between RAM and ROM?RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of memory that stores data temporarily while the computer is running. RAM is volatile, meaning that its contents are erased when the computer is turned off. ROM (Read-Only Memory), on the other hand, is a type of memory that stores data permanently, even when the computer is turned off. ROM is non-volatile, meaning that its contents are retned even when there is no power.3. What is the difference between a bit and a byte?A bit is the smallest unit of digital information, represented by a binary digit (0 or 1). A byte, on the other hand, is a unit of digital information that consists of eight bits. Bytes are commonly used to represent characters, such as letters and numbers.4. What is the purpose of an operating system?An operating system (OS) is a software program that manages the resources of a computer, including the CPU, memory, storage, and devices such as printers and displays. The purpose of an operating system is to provide an environment in which applications can run and interact with the hardware without directly accessing the underlying hardware.5. What is the difference between a compiler and an interpreter?A compiler is a program that translates the source code of a program into executable code that can be run on a specific computer platform. The resulting executable code can be run multiple times without the need for recompilation. An interpreter, on the other hand, is a program that reads and executes source code instructions one at a time. Interpreted code is typically slower than compiled code, but does not require the extra step of compilation before it can be run.第二章练习题答案1. What is the difference between a LAN and a WAN?A LAN (Local Area Network) is a network that connects computers and other devices that are located in the same physical location, such as an office building or a home. A WAN (Wide Area Network), on the other hand, is a network that connects computers and other devices that are located in different physical locations, often separated by vast distances.2. What is a router and how does it work?A router is a device that connects two or more networks together and forwards data between them. Routers use routing tables to determine thebest path for data to take between networks, and use protocols such as TCP/IP to communicate with other devices on the network.3. What is the difference between TCP and UDP?TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) are both protocols used for transmitting data over the internet. TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, which means that it establishes avirtual circuit between two endpoints over which data can be transmitted. TCP uses error correction and flow control to ensure that data arrivesat its destination correctly and in the correct order. UDP, on the other hand, is a connectionless protocol that does not establish a virtual circuit between endpoints. UDP does not provide error correction or flow control, but is often used in situations where speed and simplicity are more important than reliability.4. What is a DNS server?A DNS (Domn Name System) server is a special type of server that translates domn names into IP addresses. When a user enters a domn name into their web browser, the browser sends a request to a DNS server to find the corresponding IP address for that domn name. The DNS serverthen returns the IP address to the browser, which can then connect tothe website.5. What is a firewall and how does it work?A firewall is a security device that is used to protect a networkfrom unauthorized access. Firewalls can be implemented as hardware or software, and typically work by examining incoming and outgoing network traffic and blocking any traffic that does not meet a set of predefinedrules. Firewalls can be configured to block specific types of traffic, such as traffic from certn IP addresses or traffic that uses a certn protocol. Firewalls can also be configured to allow or deny access to specific network resources based on user or device credentials.。

It lets the programmer express data processing in a symbolic manner without regard to machine-specific details.The difficulty of writing programs in the machine language of 0s and 1s led first to the development of assembly language, which allows programmers to use mnemonics for instructions and symbols for variables. Such programs are then translated by a program known as an assembler into the binary encoding used by the computer. Other pieces of system software known as linking loaders combine pieces of assembled code and load them into the machine’s main memory unit, where they are then ready for execution. The concept of linking separate pieces of code was important, since it allowed “libraries” of programs to be built up to carry out common tasks—a first step toward the increasingly emphasized notion of software reuse. Assembly language was found to be sufficiently inconvenient that higher-level languages (closer to natural languages) were invented in the 1950s for easier, faster programming; along with them came the need for compilers, programs that translate high-level language programs into machine code. As programming languages became more powerful and abstract, building efficient compilers that createhigh-quality code in terms of execution speed and storage consumption became an interesting computer science problem in itself.IV.Translate the following passage from English into Chinese.One especially powerful feature of OOP (object-oriented programming) languages is a property which is known as inheritance. Inheritance allows an object to take on the characteristics and functions of other objects to which it is functionally connected. Programmers connect objects by grouping them together in different classes and by grouping the classes into hierarchies. These classes and hierarchies allow programmers to define the characteristics and functions of objects without needing to repeat source code, the coded instructions in a program. Thus, using OOP languages can greatly reduce the time it takes for a programmer to write an application, and also reduce the size of the program. OOP languages are flexible and adaptable, so programs or parts of programs can be used for more than one task. Programs written with OOP languages are generally shorter in length and contain fewer bugs (缺陷), ormistakes, than those written with non-OOP languages.面向对象程序设计语言的一个特别强大的功能,是称为继承的特性。

计算机英语(课文内容翻译15分)

计算机英语课文内容翻译( 15 分)CHAPTER 11.1We build computer to solve problems. Early computer solved mathematical and engineering problems ,and later computers emphasized information processing for business applications. Today, computers alsocontrol machines as diverse as automobile engines, robots, and microwave ovens. A computer system solves a problem from any of these domains by accepting input, processing it, and producing output. Figure 1-1illustrates the function of a computer system.Figure 1-2 shows these componentsin a block diagram. The lines between the blocks represent the flow of information flows from one component to another on the bus, which is simply a group of wires connecting the components. Processing occursin the CPU and main memory. The organization in Figure 1-2, with the components connectedto each other by the bus,is common. However, other configurations are possible as well.The classification just described is basedon physical size as opposed to storage size. A computer system user is generally more concerned with storage size, because thaist a more direct indication of the amount ofuseful work that the hardware can perform.Speed of computationis another characteristic that is important to the user. Generally speaking, users want a fast CPU and large amounts of storage, but a physically small machinefor the I/O devices and main memor.y1.2A processor is a functional unit that interprets and carries out instructions. Every processorcomes with a unique set of operations such as ADD, STORE, or LOAD that represent the processor set. Computers ins designers arefond of calling their computers machines, so theinstruction set is sometimes referred to asmachine instructions and the binary language in which they are written is called machine language! [1] You shouldn 'ctonfuse the processor 'in s truction set with the instructions found in high-level programming languages, such as BASIC or Pascal.The control unit is the functional unit that is responsible for supervising the operation of the entire computer system. In some ways, it is analogous to a telephoneswitch-board with intelligence becauseit makes the connections betweenvarious functional units of the computer system and calls into operation each unit that is required by the program currently in operationThe arithmetic and logic unit (ALU) is the functional unit that provides the computer with logical and computational capabilities. Data are brought into the ALU by the control unit, and the ALU performs whatever arithmetic or logic operations are required to help carry out the instruction1.3Below the L1 cache is the Level 2,or L2 cache. In today ' s P-ecnlatisusmprocessors ,the L2 cacheis usually on the processor chipitself .In fact ,If you could lift the lid of a Pentium or Athlon processor and look atthe silicon die itself under a microscope you might be surprised to find that the biggest percentage of chip areawas taken up by the cache memoriesBelow the L1 cache is the Level 2,or L2 cache. In today 's Pen-ticulamss processors ,the L2 cacheisusually on the processor chipitself .In fact ,If you could lift the lid of a Pentium or Athlon processor and look atthe silicon die itself under a microscope you might be surprised to find that the biggest percentage of chip area was taken up by the cache memorie[s.The virtual memory interface is shown in Fig.1-6. A real memory of 16M bytes and a virtual memory of 2G bytes are shown for illustration; many modern virtual memory systems are much larger than this. Virtual-memory space is divided into equal-sized groups called pages. A page in a modern computer is 1K, 2K, or 4K bytes. Real memory is also divided into the same equal-sizedgroups, called page frames. When information is moved between virtual-memory space and real-memory space, a complete page is moved.Section 3 discussed how virtual memory extends the address spaceof a processor. However, the latency of real memory is too long to support high-performance processors.Even with the high-speed DRAMs used today for real memory, something must be done to overcome this latency problem.CHAPTER 22.1Multiprogramming, which was developed to improve performance, also allows time sharing. Time shared operating systems allow many users (from one to several hundred) to use a computer system inter-leavingly at the same time. Other operating systems types include real time systems and multiprocessor systems.The management of resources in a computer system is another major concern of the operating system. Obviously, a program cannot use a device if that hardwareis unavailable. As we have seen, the operational software oversees the execution of all programs. It also monitors the devices being used. To accomplish this, it establishes a table in which programs are matched against the devices they are using or will use .The operating system checks this table to approve or deny use of a specific device.In effect , the program undergoing execution signals the operating system that an I/O operation is desired, using a specific I/O device. The controlling software calls on the IOCS software to actually complete the I/O operation. Considering the level of I/O activity in most programs, the IOCS instructions are extremely vital.CHAPTER 33.1Selecting a PC for home or business use must begin with the all-important question “What do I want the system to do?” Once you' ve determined what tasks the system will be used for, you must choose among the software and hardware alternatives available. If yo'ure not really sure what you want a system to do, you should think twice about buying one. Computer systems that are configured to match the requirements of certain applications (such as preparing a novel) often perform poorly at ot hers (playing power-hungry multimedia games, for example). You can easily make expensive mistakes if yo'u re uncertain about what you want a system to do.When you take possession of a new computer system, you should find that most of the hardware and software you need are alreadyin place. You' ll need to connect the components and start the systemup;then, you' ll be off and running. If your system does not include a piece of hardware or software that you want itto have, you can usually buy and install it yourself relatively easily.A final, but optional, step in setting up your new system is customizing the settings. Most PCs include options for background images, color schemes, themes, screen savers, screen resolution, the order of items on the menus, and soforth. In Windows, the desktop options are accessible through the Control Panel, as shown in Fig.3-1, You can also use the Control Panel to set up your network and Internet settings.3.2The Windows desktop appears on thescreen after a computerusing the Windows operating system has completed the boot process. The desktop is where documents, folders, programs, and other objects are displayed when they are being used, similar to the way documents and file folders are laid on a desk when they are being used. Thought the appearanceof the Windows desktop can be customized, all desktops contain common elements, such as desktop icons, the taskbar, the Start button, windows, and task buttons (see Fig.3-2).The principle component of the GUI is the window. As mentioned earlier, a window is a rectangular area of information that is displayed on the screen. These windows can contain programs and documents, as well as menus, dialog boxes,icons, and a variety of other types of data.A menu is a set of options--usually text based—from which the user can choose to initiate a desiredaction in a program. At the top of many windows is a menu bar showing the main menu categories (see Fig.3-2). Pull-down menus (also called drop--down menus) display on the screen when the user selects an item on the menu bar. As shown on the right-most screen in Fig.3-2, in some Microsoft programs (such as Windows and someversions of Microsoft Office) a feature called personalizedmenus can be used.CHAPTER 44.1The OSI model is shown in Fig.4-1 (minus the physical medium). This model is based on a proposal developed by the International Standards Organization (ISO) as the first step toward international standardization of the protocols used in the various layers. The model is called the ISO OSI (Open System Interconnection) Reference Model because it deals with connecting open systems—that is, systems that are open for communication with other systems.There are two end-to-end protocols in the transport layer, one of which is TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), another is UDP (User Datagram Protocol). TCP is a connection-oriented protocol that allows a byte stream originating on one machine to be delivered without error on any other machine in the internet.UDP is an unreliable, connectionless protocol for applications that do not want TCP ' s s of flow control and wish to provide their own.The network layer defines an official packet format and protocol called IP (Internet Protocol). The job of the network layer is to deliver IP packets where they are supposed to go.4.2The most widespread topology for LANs designed to function as data communication for theinterconnection of local computer-basedequipment is the star topology, in which the major equipments used to connect a variety of computer-based devices arehubs or switches. Typical LAN product of using the star topology is the most famous Ethernet, which dominates the LAN world toda.yThe 100Base-T Ethernet which is known as Fast Ethernet has the same topology as 10Base-T showing in Fig.4-3. Using this topology, we can build a fast Ethernet and need NICs of 100Mb/s and hub of 100Mb/s and don' t need cabling any more .Switches are basically multi-port bridges, but share some characteristics with routers.Like routers, switches work by dividing up the network into a number of segments, each of which can operate without interference from traffic local to any of the other segments.Switching is performed at layer 2 of the seven-layer model-the same as bridging. Since it is performed at layer 2, the MAC address is used, which is independent of protocol address. Like a bridge, a switch learns which address reside on each of its ports and then switches data appropriately. A switch can be designed using conventional microprocessors or dedicated ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) technology.CHAPTER 55.1ARPAnet is abbreviated from “ AdvancedResearch Projects Agency Network ” .Landmark packet-switching network established in 1969. ARPAnet was developed in the 197s0 by BBN and funded by ARPA.It eventually evolved into the Internet. The term ARPAnet was officially retired in 1990.There are two kinds of E-mail protocol used in the Internet. One is Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) which accepts incoming connections and copies messagesfrom them into the appropriate mailboxes . Another is Post Office Protocol-3 (POP3) which fetches E-mail from the remote mailbox and stores it on the user ' s local machine to be read later.Telnet is used for remote terminal connection, enabling usersto log in to remote systems and use resources as if they were connected to a local system.5.2Mobile Web use-or wireless Web, as it is frequently referred to-is one of the fastest growing Web applications today. Notebook and handheld devicesfrequently use attached or built-in modems to access the Internet; most mobile phones and pagers have Internet connectivity built in.Another type of dial-up connection is ADSL which is the most common way to access the Internet today. Sometimes ADSL is called as broadband accessing, because it provides more wide bandwidth than that the regular modem provides.Unlike satellite and fixed wireless connections, which use a cable to connect the modem to some type of fixed transceiver, mobile wireless connections allow the device to be moved from place to place. Consequently, most handheld PCs and othermobile devices (like Web-enable cell phones) use a mobile wireless connection and access the Internet through the same wireless network as cell phones and messaging devices.CHAPTER 66.1Until now there has always been a clear division between public and private networks. A public network,like the public telephone system and the Internet, is a large collection of unrelated peers that exchange information more or less freely with each other. The people with access to the public network may or may not have anything in common, and any given person on that network may only communicate with a small fraction of his potential users.Using the Internet for remote accesssaves a lot of money. You'll be able to dial in wherever your Internet service provider (ISP) has a point-of-presence (POP). If you choose an ISP with nationwide POPs, there's a good chance your LAN will be a local phone call away. Some ISPs have expanded internationally as well, or have alliances with ISPs overseas. Even many of the smaller ISPs have toll-free numbers for their roaming users. At the time of this writing, unlimited access dial-up PPP accounts, suitable for business use, are around $25 per month per user.At any rate, well-chosen ISP accounts should be cheaper than settingup a modem pool for remote users and paying thelong-distance bill for roaming users.Eventoll-free access from an ISP is typically cheaper than having your own toll-free number, because ISPs purchase hours in bulk from the long-distance companies.Using our previous example of the customer databasei,t 's easy to seehow a VPN could expand the Intranet application's functionality. Suppose most of your salespeople are on the road, or work from home. There's no reason why they shouldn't be able to use the Internet to access the Web server thahtouses the customer database application. oYu don't want just anyone to be able to access the information, however, and you're also worried about the information itself flowing unencrypted over the Internet. A VPN can provide a secure link between the salesperson's laptop and the Intranet web server running the database, and encrypt the data going between them. VPNsgive you flexibility, and allow practically any corporate network service to be used securely across the Internet.6.2For some time now, large business enterprises have used electronic commerce to conduct their business-to-businesstransactions. Electronic data interchange (EDI) on private networks began in the 1960s, and banks have been using dedicated networkfsor electronic funds transfer (EFT) almost aslong. Recently, however, with the increased awareness and popularity of the Internet, electronic commerce has come to encompass individual consumers as well as businesses of all sizes.To many, electronic commerce is defined as the buying and selling of products and services over the Internet, but there are many more aspects. From its inception, electronic commerce had included the handling of purchase transactions andfunds transfers over computernetworks. Its gr'own now to include the buying and selling of new commodities such as electronic information. And the opportunities for companies seeking to take advantage of thecapabilities of electronic commerce are greater than merely adopting our present view of commerce to performing those same transactions over electronic networks.Electronic commerce is a system that includes not only those transactions that center on buying and selling goods and servicesto directly generate revenue, but alsothose transactions that support revenue generation, such asgenerating demandfor those goods and services, offeringsales support and customer service (see Fig.6-1), or facilitating communications between business partners.。
