Ex.10 Read and translate into Russian:
NETWORK TOPOLOGY
The term topology refers to the arrangement or physical layout of computers, cables, and other components on the network.
All network designs have three basic topologies: bus, star and ring.
Bus
The bus topology is also known as a linear bus. This is the simplest and most common method of networking computers. It consists of a single cable called a trunk (also backbone or segment) that connects all of the computers in the network in a single line.
Computers on a bus topology network communicate by addressing data to a particular computer and putting that data on the cable in the form of electronic signals.
Star
In the star topology, computers are connected by cable segments to a centralized component, called ahub. Signals are transmitted from the sending computer through the hub to all computers on the network.
The star network offers centralized resources and management. However, because each computer is connected to a central point, it requires a great deal of cable in a large network. Also, if the central point fails, the entire network goes down. If one computer, or the cable connecting it to the hub, fails only the failed computer will not be able to send or receive data.
Ring
The ring topology connects computers on a single circle of cable. There are no terminated (to terminate [´tƏ:mıneıt] – заканчивать, завершать, выходить) ends. The signals travel around the loop on one direction and pass through each computer. Each computer acts like a repeater. The failure of one computer can impact (to impact [ım´pækt] - влиять) the entire network.
One method of transmitting data around a ring is called token passing. The token is passed from computer to computer until it finds one with data to send. The sending computer changes the token, puts an address on the data, and sends it around the ring. The signal passes each computer until it finds the one with an address matching the address on the data. After verification, the sending computer creates a new token and releases it on the network.
Ex.11 Translate into English:
Расположение, основной, линейный, общий (популярный), магистраль, определенный, передавать, управление, требовать, выходить из строя (давать сбой), получать, посылать, петля (цикл), направление, находить, соответствовать, проверка, создавать, маркер, влиять.
Ex.12 Translate into English:
В топологии «шина» используется один кабель, именуемый магистралью или сегментом, вдоль которого подключены все компьютеры сети.
В кольцевой сети сигналы передаются по кольцу в одном направлении и проходят через каждый компьютер.
При выходе из строя одного компьютера прекращает функционировать вся сеть.
Ex.13 Compare network topologies (in English).

THE MS NETWORK
Online services offer “any time” access to the expanding world of electronic information and communication. Microsoft’s goal is to bring the online benefits to PC users. To achieve this goal, Microsoft created an online service, The Microsoft Network, and included worldwide access to The Microsoft Network.
The Microsoft Network (MSN) will bring all customers easy-to-use access to:
Electronic mail, for sending messages to and receiving them from other MSN members, or anyone with an electronic mailbox on the Internet.
Bulletin boards, for in-depth discussions on a variety of topics, such as hardware or software support from computer companies.
Chat rooms, for online conversations and special events with celebrities or business personalities.
File Libraries, for easy access to images, add-ins, utilities, and programs that can be copied to the user’s PC.
The Internet, for e-mail and “newsgroup” bulletin boards.
In addition, The Microsoft Network offers advanced features such as shortcuts, multitasking, and advanced e-mail services, all presented in a graphical format.
Ex.3 Answer the following questions:
