Tim Berners-Lee, who received one million euros ($1.2 million) cash for creating the World Wide Web, says he would never have succeeded if he had charged money for his inventions.“ If had tried to demand fees…there would be no World Wide Web,” Berners-Lee, 49, said on June 15 at a ceremony (仪式) for winning the first Millennium Technology Prize, awarded by the Finnish Technology Award Foundation. “There would be lots of small webs,” The prize committee agreed.
The Internet had existed for nearly 20 years when Mr Berners-Lee launched(推出) the world’s first website in August, 1991.But the Net was little more than a collection of computer connected with cables. It didn’t have a means (way) of sharing information between different kinds of computers running different kinds of software. Mr Berners-Lee found ways to connect documents and other information using hypertext links. The universal hypertext language he created allows all kinds of software to communicate with(与……交流) each other. His creation(创造) made a generation of youthful millionaires and millionaires, lit the spark(火花) for the New Economy and paved the way for(为…铺平道路) great new industries such as e-commerce.
The invention could have made him unbelievably wealthy (rich), even by Internet standards. But Berners-Lee’s never devoted to commercialize(使商业化)or patent(取得…专利) his contributions(贡献) to the Internet technologies he had developed. Berners—Lee, who is originally from Britain, has mostly avoided both the fame and the fortune won by many of his Internet colleagues. Despite his prize, he remained modest(谦虚的) about his achievements. “I was just taking lots of things that already exited and added a little bit,” said Berner—Who now runs the standard-setting World Wide Web Consortium from office at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“Building the Web, I didn’t do it all myself,” he said. “The really exciting thing about it is that it was done by lots and lots of people, connected with this great spirit.” Berners-Lee indeed took concept(观念)that were well known to engineers since the 1960s, but it was he who saw the value of marrying them. Pekka Tarjanne, chairman of the prize committee, said “no one doubts who the father of the World Wide Web is, except Berners-Lee himself.
51. Before the World Wide Web was invented, the Internet________.
was already in wide use. B. was used to share information
C. was of little practical use D. didn’t exist for long.
52. From the passage we can conclude that Tim Berners-Lee is________.
A modest(谦虚的)and unselfish(无私的) B。 smart(聪明的and practical(实际的)
C .creative(有创造力的) and rich D. honest and kind
53. What made it possible for all kinds of computers using different software to communicate with each other
a special kind of language Tim Berners-Lee created
a special kind of software Tim Berners-Lee created.
the World Wide Web
Tim Berners-Lee’s improvement on the Internet.
54. It can be inferred from the underlined sentence that _________.
a lot of people doubt the invention of World Wide Web
Berners-Lee himself thinks World Wide Web was invented by other people.
All the people owe thanks to Berners-Lee for his invention.
No one is really sure who invented World Wide Web.

To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains, But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain, Its first use was as a shade against the sun! Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the eleventh century B C.
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in commonly used in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.
During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered as a symbol of power. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in England.
By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have hot changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.
55. According to this passage, the umbrella was probably first invented in ancient__________.
A. China B. Egypt C. Greece D. Rome

第四部分 书面表达
第一节 阅读表达,5个小题,每小题3分,共15分。
阅读下面短文,然后用英语简洁回答文后所给的五个问题。
Bacteria(细菌) are extremely small living things. While we measure our own sizes in inches or centimeters, bacterial size is measured in micron. One micron is a thousandth of a millimeter; a pinhead is about a millimeter across, Rod-shaped bacteria are usually from two to four microns long, while rounded ones are generally one micron across. Thus, if you magnified a rounded bacterium a thousand times, it would be just the size of a pinhead, while a grown-up human enlarged by the same amount would be over a mile tall.
Even with an ordinary microscope(显微镜), you must look closely to see bacteria. Using a magnification of 100 times, one can hardly find bacteria. Nor can one make out anything of their structure(结构), of course. Only by using special colors, can one see that some bacteria have wavy-looking “hairs” called flagella. Others have only one flagellum. The flagella move round a central point, pushing the bacteria through the water. Many bacteria lack flagella and cannot move about by their own power, while others can move along over surface by some little-understood “machinery”.
From the bacterial point of view, the world is a very different place from what it is to humans. To a bacterium, water is as thick as molasses(糖浆) is to us. Bacteria are so small that they are affected by the movements of the chemical molecules(分子) around them. Bacteria under microscopes, even those with no flagella, often jump up and down in the water. This is because they knock with the water molecules and are pushed this way and that.
1. What does the underlined word magnified mean
_____________________________________________________________________
2. What is the smallest according to the passage
_____________________________________________________________________
3. What is the relationship between a bacterium and its flagella is most nearly like
_____________________________________________________________________
4. Why does the writer compares water to molasses in the third paragraph
_____________________________________________________________________
5. Which is the main topic of the passage

One possible version :
In our recent English class , we had a heated discussion about whether computers do more good than harm in our daily life .
Firstly , computers have been built to serve the human race since their birth . They can deal with tedious mathematical problems , saving us lots of time and labor . Another advantage is that they can store quantities of documents in the form of words or pictures . Besides , connected to the Internet, they can be used to promote the communication among people.
While we benefit a lot from them , we cannot ignore their disadvantages . It does great harm to our health if we spend too much time in front of them . Many children are so addicted to the computer games that their studies are badly affected . Worse still, we may get cheated by misleading information spread on the Internet , which may cause a great loss .

One day Burton took his children to the zoo. He told them to be ready at two o’clock, but they weren’t all ready then: little Tommy couldn’t find his shoes. He could find his brown shoes, but he couldn’t find his black shoes, and he wanted to wear his black shoes to the zoo. At a quarter past two his brothers and sisters told him to wear his brown shoes, so he put them on; and at last they were all ready to leave. Their mother waved goodbye and told them to enjoy their trip to the zoo. Then she sat down to read a book in the empty, quiet house. When they got to the zoo, Burton told the children to stay with him; he didn’t want them to get lost in the zoo. Little Tommy asked his father to buy some food for the bears, but his father answered, “Look at that notice, Tommy. It tells us not to feed the animals.” “Why does it tell us not to feed the animals ” asked Tommy.
“Because they get a lot of food already,” said Burton “And people often try to give them the wrong food; that’s bad for the animals.”
At three o’clock the dolphin(海豚)show began. All the Burtons wanted to see it. So Mr Burton bought seven tickets and took the children down to the doplhinariurn(水族馆).The dolphins did a lot of tricks; they jumped up into the air and flew through hoops(圈)over the water; they caught rubber rings with their noses; and they played “basketball’ with red and yellow balls. The trainer blew his whistle when he wanted the dolphins to do something and when they did it he gave them some fish. “How can the dolphins do all those tricks ” asked little Tommy. “Because they are very intelligent(聪明),”said his big brother. “They can understand when their trainer tells them to do something; and they like to do tricks, because he always gives them some fish when they do them,” “That’s good,” “said Tommy.” I like to do tricks too; why doesn’t Father give me some candies(糖)when I do them

Three minutes later, check the students’ answers.
T: OK. So much for the words. Next we will do listening practice.
Step Ⅳ Listening and Vocabulary
First, ask the students to scan the three activities in the LISTENING AND VOCABULARY so that they can know what they are going to do, and try to get ready to catch the key words or key sentences when they are listening. Second, ask the students to fill in the box. Third, check the answers.
T: Today we will listen to a TV interview. Please open your books and turn to Page 54. Now please listen to the tape for the first time and do Activity 1.
Play the tape for the students.
Five minutes later, check the answers.
...

This time, you had better pay attention to the details of the talk and try to find out the attitudes of the three people towards the Internet and why they think so. Try to finish the following form. After you finish it, compare your notes with the other group members’.
Show the form on the Screen:
Attitude towards the Internet Why
Play the tape again.
Several minutes later, check the answer.
Sample answers:
TopicName Is the Internet a good thing for education
Attitude towards the Internet Why
Ann,a teacher Important to help the students find useful sites on the Internet. Both good things and bad things are on the Internet. Fantastic information is good to the students. Look for interesting and useful information instead of the terrible sites.
Tom,a student A good place to study. Study both at school and home. Use the Internet about five hours a day. Studying on the Internet is different from at school.
Pat,Tom’smother Studying is the most important thing. She wants Tom to only study from books and enjoy himself. Tom likes music sites. He spends much time reading about football. Tom doesn’t always study. Studying from the books is more important.

S: The most useful thing is to get different views about the same subject.
S: We can get more information about what we have learnt in the class.
S: We can also relax ourselves by playing games and listening to the music when we are tired.
T: The Internet is wonderful. However, we should make good use of the useful websites. If not, our study will be affected. Besides, long time staying before the computers does harm to our eyes.
Step Ⅴ Pronunciation
T: So much for the listening. Next, we will listen to a dialogue. It is a simple extract from the TV interview we listened just now. Please listen to the tape, and pay attention to the stressed words. You had better underline these words in the dialogue.
One minute later, check the answers.
T: Can you tell me what words should be stressed
S: I think noun, verb, adverb and adjective should be stressed in a sentence. So “use”, “Internet”, “Everyday”, “school”, “home” and “spend” in the dialogue should be stressed.
T: You are quite right. All these words are stressed words. Do you have any different opinions
S: I think some important information in the context should be stressed. In my opinion, “as much time as”, “can”, “five hours”, “Five hours a week”, “No” and “Five hours a day” should be stressed.
T: Terrific! Thank you for your answers. So when we listen to a conversation, we cannot only get important information in it but also deduce the intention of the speakers.
Later, give the students 2 minutes to practice in pairs and act out the dialogue by exchanging roles.

Step Ⅰ Revision
The purpose of this part is to go over the word formation and lead in new grammar. Divide the students into two groups and have a word contest to see which group can make more derivatives by adding prefixes and suffixes.
T: Last class I asked you to make a list of compound words by adding prefixes or suffixes. Now I will divide you into two groups to have a word contest to see which group can write more words. Are you clear
Ss: Yes.
T: The left four lines is Group 1 and the rest lines, Group 2.
Sample answers:
GROUP 1
practical nationalmusical restartreread traineeactor actresswriter helplessdreadful explanationencouragementdevelopmentproduction
GROUP 2
discover uselessdisable disappointingdismiss trainerrewritten reddishunexpected successfulrebuilt illegaluseless removeintroduction friendship sunny friendly
T: Time is up. Let’s look how many words you have written. Group 1 has got 15 words while Group 2 has got 18 words. Group 2 has won the game. Let’s congratulate them. You have done a wonderful job. Please look at the screen, I will show you more words.
Show the following.
1. bookstore outlook daybreak horthand toothpaste outpour2. noise-killing good-looking sleeping-pills warm-hearted cold-blooded easy-puter center search engine coffee cup reading room washing machine swimming pool
T: What characteristics do these words have
S: They are all formed by two words, but in different ways. They are quite different from the words we went over just now.
S: There is no prefix or suffix.
S: The two words are joined together in different ways, some have “-” in between, some haven’t and some only put two words together.
T: Yeah! You are quite right.
Step Ⅱ Grammar 1
The purpose of this part is to provide the students with different forms of compound words. Try to teach the students how to guess the meanings of the words by using word formation. At last, they need to finish some exercises.
T: All these words belong to compound words. That is the main grammar we will learn today. They are the basic types of compound words.
S: Sorry, can you explain what “compound” mean
T: Compounding is also an important means by which you may deduce the meanings of unfamiliar words. When two words are joined together to make a new one, the word formed in this way is called a compound word. The forming process is described as compounding. Are you clear
Ss: Yes.
T: If you happen to know the meaning of each word making up the compound words, you will be able to guess the meanings of the compound words. For example, sun-up and firefighter. Could you tell me the meanings of these two words
Write the two words on the blackboard.
S: Sun-up means sunrise.
S: Fire-fighter means person who fights fire.
T: Well done. But do you know some compound words may have special meanings, quite different from the meaning simply added together. Can you guess the meaning of “greenhouse”
S: No.
T: OK. It means a building used for growing plants that need protection, not houses painted green. Now I will give you more information. Compound words are subdivided into compound nouns, com-pound adjectives, compound verbs and compound adverbs.
Show the following to the students.
SCREEN 1 Compound nouns
Compound nouns may be written together or with a hyphen in between or simply two separate words.
Without a hyphen: cowboy (cow+boy), rainstorm
(rain+storm), railroad (rail+road), slaughterhouse (slaughter+house), dryland (dry+land)
(2) With a hyphen: cheek-bones, take-off, life-story (传记), water-level, get-together (联欢会)
(3) Separate: dancing party, film star, price list,railroad station, news broadcast (新闻广播)
SCREEN 2 Compound adjectives
(1) Without a hyphen: overspeed (over+speed),runaway (run+away ) (失去控制的),widespread (wide+spread ) (广泛的),heartfelt (heart+felt) (由衷的), outgoing (out + going ) (开朗的)
(2) With a hyphen: good-looking, well-known, new-born, snow-white, Chinese-designed, do-it- yourself
(3) Separate: computer controlled,world famous
SCREEN 3
Compound verbs
uphold (up+hold ) (拥护), whitewash (white+wash) (粉刷),overhear (over+hear ) (无意中听到), air-condition (调节……的空气),mass-produce (大量生产)
Compound adverbs
beforehand (before+hand) (事先),southwest (south+west ), upside-down (颠倒地),above-ground, warm-heartedly

学生会 避难所 阅览室
西红柿酱
3. 媒人 成年人 行踪
常坐飞机的人 决策 讲故事的人
候车室 两面派
Step Ⅲ Grammar 2
The purpose of this part is to go over the usages of the articles. First, go over the usages of the Articles; second, explain the usages of the definite and zero articles; at last, do Activities 1-4 to consolidate the grammar.
T: So much for the compound words. Next we will learn another grammar — the definite article and zero article. Please turn to Page 55. Let’s look at Activity 1. Read through the words and tell me why we use “the” before these words
One minute later, check their answers.
S: Because they are all unique.
T: Do you think this is necessary Why How can we know when to use the definite article and when to use the indefinite articles
S: Yes, it is necessary. But I am not sure about the usages of articles.
T: What are articles
S: Articles contain “a”, “an” and “the”, which come before nouns to modify or describe them.
T: Very good. Do you know why we have to use articles in English Do we use them in Chinese
Ss: We are not sure.
T: Articles do not exist in Chinese, or in a lot of other languages. Therefore, it is a bit difficult for Chinese to master the usages of the articles. Now I will explain the usages of articles to you. “The” is called the definite article because the noun it goes with refers to something specific. As in this sentence, “Put the book on the table in the dining room.” That means we put “not just any old book on any old table”, we’re talking about specific things — the book, the table and the dining room. The definite article is also used to point out something that is unique — like “the moon” or “the earth.” Indefinite articles don’t refer to a specific noun. I might use “a” in this sentence, “Please give me a pen”. It means any pen. “A” goes before a consonant while “an” goes before a vowel. Now that you know the usages of the articles, could you give me some examples
S: So, we could go to “the grocery store” to buy “a bunch of carrots,” “a head of lettuce,” “a loaf of bread”and “a box of cereal.”
S: We might also buy “an apple,” “an apricot” and “an orange.”
T: Yes. You are quite right. Have you understood the usages of articles
Ss: Yes.
T: If so, let’s come to Activity 2 on Page 55. First, you will be divided into several groups to discuss. And then write two or three examples in each category.
Three minutes later, collect the answers.
T: Why do we use zero article before these words
S: Generally speaking, we don’t use articles before mass nouns, abstract nouns and plural nouns.
T: Very good. Now let’s come to Activities 3-4 on Pages 55-56.
Two minutes later, check their answers.
Step Ⅳ Summary
T: OK. We still have a few minutes left. Now let’s go over what we have learnt today. In this class, we have learnt two important grammars. When we use them, we should pay attention to the following:
a. Three types of compound words.
Type 1. one word:
earthworm, sightseeing, shorthand, earthquake, software, hardware, toothbrush,
Type 2. two words with “-”:
hiding-place, break-through, snow-white, fast-printing, high-speed
Type 3. two words:
teaching building, mobile phone, woman doctor, computer study
b. We should use the definite article to talk about specific things, countries such the USA, the UK etc.
c. We use zero article before material nouns, abstract nouns and plural nouns.

Step Ⅲ Reading
In this part there are two tasks: SPEAKING AND READING on Page 57 and exercises on Page 99. In order to finish the two tasks, the students need to do some discussions.
Task 1 SPEAKING AND READING
T: Now, please turn to Page 57 and look at Activity 2. I would like you to read the passage and tell me what you can learn from the text. You had better finish the work within four minutes. You can discuss in pairs. Are you clear
S: Yes.
Four minutes later, collect their opinions.
T: Have you finished reading?

S: The mobile market is promising in China. And therefore, the technology of mobile phone needs improving in order to meet the needs of the consumers.
T: Do you have different opinions
S: The mobile phone market in China is developing at a great speed.
S: Perhaps more and more high school students and university students are using the mobile phones, because they feel “cool” when using mobile phones. And it is an easy way to communicate with outside world.
T: Your conclusions may be true. As you have known, mobile phones are very important to us in our daily life. We can’t imagine what our life would be like without mobile phones. You have done a wonderful job. Next, we will come to Activity 3. I will give you five minutes to discuss the four questions and do a survey among your classmates. After the discussion, I will ask some of you to give a report to us.
Five minutes later, check the report.
A sample report:
More than one third of my classmates have mobile phones. They use them mainly to call their parents or friends when they need help. As calling by mobile phones cost a lot, they often send text messages.
Next, let the students do more discussions about the use of mobile phones by doing Activity 4. Divide the class into two groups. One group makes a list of advantages of the mobile phones, the other disadvantages. The task should be done in 5 minutes. Then ask the students to state their views.
T: OK. Now we will have a discussion about the advantages and disadvantages of having a mobile phone. I will divide you into two groups. The four lines on the left discuss the advantages and the rest disadvantages. After your discussion, I will ask one of you to list the key points on the blackboard. Five minutes for the discussion.
Five minutes later, check the answers.
Sample answers:
Advantages Disadvantages Attitudes ofthe school
Mobile phones make it possible for us to talk to anyone from anywhere. Sometimes the use of mobiles is limited, though new functions are being added. Phones are notallowed to usein the readingroom, theclassroom, during themeeting incase ofdisturbingothers.

Step Ⅳ Summary
T: In this class, we have learnt the wide use of the Internet and telecommunications in our daily life. They make our life easier than ever. Wherever we are, we can communicate with families and friends. We can’t imagine the life without mobile phones. Online shopping makes us free from the common shopping with baskets. Thus, we can make good use of our limited time and do more other things. However, we need to be careful when using credit cards. We should buy things from the companies that have secure page facilities. We should be cautious about the online deception.

It has increased by pared with 450,000 in 1978, the number of school kids has increased by 90%, reaching as many as 855,000. Meanwhile, the number of the JH students has increased from 420,000 in 1978 to 790,000 in 2003. The percentage of increase is 88%. But the number of SH students has only increased by 70%, from 380,000 to 646,000 since 1978. Much to our joy, the number of in-service learners has increased by 128%. Now there are 180,000 in-service learners, compared to 79,000 in 1978. In a word, the education in his hometown has changed dramatically, which will promote the development of local economy in the future.
Step Ⅳ Writing (P56)
The students are asked to do the writing after class. After reading through the compositions, choose the best ones to the whole class. Show the following samples on the screen:
Sample 1:
I don’t agree with this opinion. To start with, we can only get some information, but not all of the information is what we need. There is lots of information on the Internet, so it takes us lots of time to search for a proper one. Besides, it is very important to have a teacher, who can give his / her lesson lively and with a clear aim. If we have problems, we can turn to him / her for help. On the Internet, we can only get information and pictures, but we can not get a person to discuss with. What’s more, in the class with a teacher we can also work on the problems together. That will do good to both our friendship and team spirits.
Spending too much time playing computer games will push us into a pitch-fall of pleasure and affect our study. What is worse, logging on the Internet for a long time is bad for our health especially eyes and back. In my opinion, we need to search for the good websites and limit the online time.
Sample 2:
I don’t agree with the opinion. Though Internet makes our life interesting and colorful, it has negative effects on our life. First, if a student is addicted to the Internet and spends too much time playing computer games, it will affect his study. Second, some information on the Internet is not suitable for children. So we should look for information on good and useful websites. Third, chatting with strangers by QQ, or MSN etc is a dangerous thing. Furthermore, staying a long time before screen will do harm to our health. In a word, we should be aware of online safety.
Step Ⅴ Speaking and Writing (P101)
First, ask the students to work in pairs and discuss the questions in Ex. 17. After discussion they need to find out how they could improve computer facilities in their school in Ex. 18. For Ex. 19, the students need to read the passage and find out five things that need improving. If time is not enough, Ex. 20 will be done after class.
T: Now I will give you several minutes to discuss the questions in Ex. 17.
Two minutes later, collect their answers.
T: How about the first question
S: There are about 200 computers in our school.
T: Where are they Is there a special computer room
S: They are in the electronic library, in the office and students’ computer room.
T: How about next one
S: The students and teachers can use the computers.
T: No. 4. Who’d like to try
S: We have CD-ROMs, printers, DVD drives, modems and scanners.
T: What software is there in the library
S: We have 60,000 electronic books but there are not enough CD-ROMs of the text.
T: How many computers have Internet links
S: All of the computers at school are linked.
T: The facilities in our school are good in general. But how do you think we could improve computer facilities in our school Can you give some concrete suggestions
S: The students’ computer room should be provided with 40 new computers.
S: If possible, electronic library should be opened to the students every afternoon.
S: We need to have a computer in the classroom, which is good for both teachers and students.
S: Buy some CD-ROMs going with our textbooks.
Give the students five minutes to finish Ex. 19.
Sample answers:
1. They need more printers.
2. They can’t access the Internet.
3. There are no English CD-ROMS.
4. Students can only use the IT room during classes with their teachers.
5. There aren’t enough computers, so they have to wait a long time to use the Internet
T: Next, do Ex. 20 on P102 after class.
A sample version:
Computer Facilities in Our School
In my school, we have a special IT computer room with 60 computers for the students, an electronic library with 40 computers and 4 multi-media classrooms. In the teachers’ office, every teacher is provided with a desktop computer, which is of great help to their work. All of the computers have Internet links. Each computer has a monitor, keyboard, mouse, CD-ROM and hard disk. The teachers share one printer and a scanner in the same office.
Though the school facilities are good, something still needs to be improved. First, the students can only use computers in the class. We need to supply more computers to the students. Second, the computer is too old to work. Therefore, it is necessary to buy more new ones. Furthermore, we can only use the electronic library at a given time. It would be better if we are allowed to use the computers every afternoon. If possible, I hope we can have a computer in each classroom, which will do good to both teachers and students.
Step Ⅵ Homework
Task: Prepare a poster showing the uses of the Internet.
This task needs some out-of-class research. So it is best given at the end of the week so that the students can work on it over the weekends. After the students finish it, the teacher can have a poster exhibition in the class. Then choose the best ones to the students.
Sample poster 1:
Nowadays the Internet is more and more popular. However, I prefer to study at a traditional school. First, the school provides a place where all the students spend most of their time together, so we can develop a long and lasting friendship. And the students will benefit from this precious friendship all their life. They will also learn from teachers and classmates and thus improve their social skills. These advantages of a traditional school are the disadvantages of the Internet. With nobody to have a face-to-face discussion, the students can easily get lonely, which may lead to unhealthy personalities.
Sample Poster 2:
Nowadays studying on the Internet is more and more popular. I think it is a good way of studying. First, the Internet enables people to study whenever and wherever. People can also choose to study whatever they are interested in. However, a traditional school doesn’t provide such great freedom. the students have to study given subjects in a certain classroom. Even if they are not interested in what is taught, they have to stay there. Besides, due to the large number of students in a class, some students’ weak subjects can not attract the teachers’ attention. I love studying on the Internet. It brings me a lot of chances and freedom.

1. The World Wide Web
The World Wide Web is part of the computer Internet system. A recent study shows that more than thirty million computer users link to the communications system called the Internet. The study shows that most of these people are using the World Wide Web.
Computers are linked with the Internet. The Internet is a communication system that permits millions of computers to send and receive information. The World Wide Web is an important part of the Internet system. People use the Web to search for news, products and educational information. They may also play games, buy books, records or other products or plan a holiday trip. These World Wide Web areas are called “Websites”.
Before the World Wide Web existed, information on the Internet was mostly written, now, the Web provides the same written information but also includes sound, color pictures, television pictures and movies.
In 1993, a computer could only link with 130 websites, and it was difficult to link a computer with a website. In I994, computer scientists made it easier. Today there are millions of websites. Many more are being added each day.
The World Wide Web Consortium is an inter-national group. It is headed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States; the National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control in France and Keio University in Japan. The Consortium includes more than 275 smaller computer organizations. These groups work together to improve how information is offered on the Web.
2. Tim Berners-lee and the World Wide Web
Build the highway and watch the town grow. At first a few shops appear and maybe a restaurant. Then a hotel opens. Finally new houses are built. A village is born.
This is also how the virtual world has developed. Think of the Internet as the road carrying information between two computers. Think of the World Wide Web as the village. At first it is just a place on the virtual road where travelers meet. With more travelers coming along with new kinds of information, new villages start.
Every village has a founder. Tim Berners-lee is the man who wrote the software programme that led to the foundation of the World Wide Web. How did he get the idea “One of the things computers were not able to do was store information from different sources. The dream behind the Web is of a common space in which we communicate by sharing information.” he says.
Tim burners-Lee could have followed Microsoft route by forming a company to sell the programmes he invented. Or he could have joined an existing company. But in his view the Web is a language, not a product. Charging a fee for using his programmes would have slowed the growth of the Web. And other companies would make similar products to compete. Instead of one World Wide Web there would be several smaller Webs. Each would use incompatible (不相容的) software. The Web is valuable because it uses a common computer language to reach people and share information. Imagine if someone sent a bill every time when you spoke a world of English.
In 1994 Tim Berners-Lee formed the World Wide Web Consortium or W3C. More than 200 leading companies and laboratories are represented by W3C. Together they make sure that everyone, no matter what their equipment or software is, can work equally on the Web. “The Web can help people understand the way that others live and love. It helps us understand the humanity of people.” He says.
3. Sir Tim Berners-Lee
Creating the World Wide Web didn’t make Tim Berners-Lee instantly rich or famous. In part, that’s because the Web sprang from relatively humble technologies. Berners-Lee’s invention was based on an information retrieval program called Enquire (named after a Victorian book, Enquire Within upon Everything), which he wrote in 1980 as a contract programmer at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland. In part, it’s because Berners-Lee did the unthinkable thing: more than a decade later, he finished writing the tools that defined the Web’s basic structure: he gave them away, with CERNs blessing, no strings attached. While others made millions off his invention, the soft-spoken programmer went on to found the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) at MIT, which he still directs, to promote global Web standards and development.
Berners-Lee is finally getting his reward: in July he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II, and the previous month he received Finland’s million-euro Millennium Technology Prize, awarded “for out-standing technological achievements that directly promote people’s quality of life, are based on human values, and encourage sustainable economic development.”
Now in new offices in MIT’s Frank Gehry-designed Ray and Maria Stata Center, the 49-year-old native of England is busy overseeing hundreds of projects at the W3C. He is also personally engaged in developing his second big idea: the Semantic Web, which adds definition tags to information in Web pages and links them in such a way that computers can discover data more efficiently and form new associations between pieces of information, in effect creating a globally distributed database. Though part of Berners-Lees original intention is for his invention, the Semantic Web has been 15 years in the making and has met its share of skepticism. But Berners-Lee believes it will soon win acceptance, enabling computers to extract meaning from far-flung information as easily as today’s Internet which simply links individual documents.
4. The History of the Internet
ARPANET started by the US Dept. of Defense for research. It is the original basis for what now forms the Internet. It was opened to non-military users later in the 1970s.
The first international connections to ARPANET are established.
The TCP / IP Protocol established, and the “Internet” is formed as a connected set of networks using TCP / IP.
DNS (Domain Name Server) introduced to the Internet, with then consisted of about 1000 hosts.
World Wide Web, invented by Tim Berners-Lee who saw the need for a global information exchange that would allow physicists to collaborate on research. The Web started as a text-only interface, but NCSA Mosaic later presented a graphical interface for it.
Web traffic over the Internet increased by
300,scape 1.0 was written as an alternative browser to NCSA Mosaic.
December JavaScript development announced by Netscape.

Tim Berners-Lee, who received one million euros ($1.2 million) cash for creating the World Wide Web, says he would never have succeeded if he had charged money for his inventions.“ If had tried to demand fees…there would be no World Wide Web,” Berners-Lee, 49, said on June 15 at a ceremony (仪式) for winning the first Millennium Technology Prize, awarded by the Finnish Technology Award Foundation. “There would be lots of small webs,” The prize committee agreed.
The Internet had existed for nearly 20 years when Mr Berners-Lee launched(推出) the world’s first website in August, 1991.But the Net was little more than a collection of computer connected with cables. It didn’t have a means(way) of sharing information between different kinds of computers running different kinds of software. Mr Berners-Lee found ways to connect documents and other information using hypertext links. The universal hypertext language he created allows all kinds of software to communicate with(与……交流) each other. His creation(创造) made a generation of youthful millionaires and millionaires, lit the spark(火花) for the New Economy and paved the way for(为……铺平道路) great new industries such as e-commerce.
The invention could have made him unbelievably wealthy(rich), even by Internet standards. But Berners-Lee’s never devoted to commercialize(使商业化)or patent(取得…专利) his contributions(贡献) to the Internet technologies he had developed. Berners—Lee, who is originally from Britain, has mostly avoided both the fame and the fortune won by many of his Internet colleagues. Despite his prize, he remained modest(谦虚的) about his achievements. “I was just taking lots of things that already exited and added a little bit,” said Berner—Who now runs the standard-setting World Wide Web Consortium from office at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“Building the Web, I didn’t do it all myself,” he said. “The really exciting thing about it is that it was done by lots and lots of people, connected with this great spirit.” Berners-Lee indeed took concept(观念)that were well known to engineers since the 1960s, but it was he who saw the value of marrying them. Pekka Tarjanne, chairman of the prize committee, said “no one doubts who the father of the World Wide Web is, except Berners-Lee himself.
Before the World Wide Web was invented, the Internet________.
was already in wide use. B. was used to share information
C. was of little practical use D. didn’t exist for long.
From the passage we can conclude that Tim Berners-Lee is________.
A modest(谦虚的)and unselfish(无私的) B. smart(聪明的and practical(实际的)
C .creative(有创造力的) and rich D. honest and kind
What made it possible for all kinds of computers using different software to communicate with each other
a special kind of language Tim Berners-Lee created
a special kind of software Tim Berners-Lee created.
the World Wide Web
Tim Berners-Lee’s improvement on the Internet.
It can be inferred from the underlined sentence that _________.
a lot of people doubt the invention of World Wide Web
Berners-Lee himself thinks World Wide Web was invented by other people.
All the people owe thanks to Berners-Lee for his invention.
No one is really sure who invented World Wide Web.
