A DISCIPLINA INGLS INSTRUMENTAL

A disciplina Ingls Instrumental tambm conhecida como Aprendizagem de Ingls ou Lngua Inglesa (LI) para Fins Especficos. Em ingls ela conhecida como: English for Specific Purposes (ESP). Alguns dos objetivos desta disciplina so aprender a abordar adequadamente textos especficos; interpretar textos corretamente e aumentar o vocabulrio na LI. No entanto, no se deve confundir o ensino de Ingls Instrumental com o ensino de leitura somente (CELANI, 2008), apesar de, no Brasil, a leitura de textos acadmicos em LI representar a maior necessidade dos estudantes (CRUZ, 2001, apud ALMEIDA, 2004) de nvel tcnico ou universitrio.Celani (2008, p. 418) enfatiza que a disciplina Ingls Instrumental deve envolver uma ou mais das seguintes caractersticas:(1)considerar os motivos dos estudantes para aprender o ingls e suas necessidades; (2)construir capacidades e habilidades para propsitos definidos; (3)usar o conhecimento anterior, ou o que os estudantes trazem com eles para a situao do aprendizado, ou seja, o que os aprendizes tem, fazem e podem fazer no processo do aprendizado; (4)dar permisso para a voz dos estudantes; tornar o uso da lngua significativo; capacitar os alunos a ver razes para aprender e (5)ajudar os alunos a desenvolver estratgias individuais de aprendizado; alterar hbitos de estudo no-saudveis; quebrar a velha tradio de memorizao e repetio do conhecimento transmitido pelo professor (minha traduo). Aprender Ingls Instrumental, portanto, quer dizer aprender para um propsito e aprender dentro de uma abordagem que faa com que as razes para se aprender sejam no s claras como tambm significativas para os aprendizes e seus professores de ingls (CELANI, 2008). .A disciplina Ingls Instrumental deve ser ditada pelo contexto social. Contedos, ensino, materiais e metodologias de ensino so determinados pelos interesses, pelo contexto social e pela bagagem cultural dos estudantes. A lngua no o objeto de aprendizado, mas o resultado, o produto da interao mtua entre o aprendiz e o mundo l fora, que, no caso do ingls um grande mundo cheio de desafios exigncias e limitaes (CELANI, 2008).

A DISCIPLINA INGLS INSTRUMENTAL PARA ALUNOS DA INFORMTICAO conhecimento do Ingls para alunos da rea da Informtica deve ser suficiente para que tenham acesso fcil e rpido aos materiais escritos em Ingls na rea. Alm disso, a LI a lngua oficial da Internet e muito vocabulrio da informtica em LI e no traduzido para o portugus.Deste modo, esta apostila tem como objetivo oferecer aos alunos ferramentas bsicas para entendimento de textos tcnicos escritos em ingls na rea de Informtica. Ela apresenta os assuntos de maneira a facilitar a aprendizagem do aluno. O seu contedo totalmente voltado para a rea de Informtica, com diversos tipos de textos, oferecendo ao estudante o vocabulrio tcnico bsico para o exerccio da profisso. Os exerccios desta apostila tambm auxiliam no enriquecimento e fixao do vocabulrio. Pelo fato de o Ingls estar to presente nos computadores, na internet, nos manuais e outros documentos, ele deve ser ensinado nos cursos da rea da Informtica. No entanto, com o passar do tempo as coisas mudam, novos termos e novos produtos so criados. E na rea da Informtica isto ocorre muito frequentemente. Portanto, o profissional desta rea deve estar sempre procurando se atualizar e ficar por dentro das mudanas.

The central processing unit (CPU), is housed on the motherboard and managesall the exchange of information between parts. The hard drive is where all the information on the computer is stored. This is where all the pictures, music, movies and documents are kept when you aren't viewing them. The memory is different from the hard drive because it is not permanent. The memory is simply a place for the computer to storeinformation temporarily while it performs certain functions. Other computer parts include CD and DVD drives which can read information off CDs and DVDs. Video and sound cards boost the video and audio quality of the things that the computer displays.

The motherboard is sometimesalternatively known as the mainboard, system board, or, on Apple computers, the logic board. It is also sometimes casually shortenedto mobo. (Retirado de http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motherboard, em 28/05/2011).

How to Install a Motherboard

I) The motherboard is installed in the computer case. Open the case and locate the metallic plate where the motherboard is screwed to. Normally, this plate can be removed from the case by unscrewing it from the back end of the case and sliding it. Remove it from the case to install the motherboard on it. This plate has several holes, as you can see in Figure 4. The motherboard also has several holes.

Figura 4: The metallic plate.II) Lay down the motherboard on the metallic plate and check which holes from the metallic plate match the holes on the motherboard, as we show in Figure 5. As you can see by comparing Figures 4 and 5, the metallic plate has more holes than needed. On the holes on the metallic plate that matched a hole on the motherboard, install a nut screw. On the holes that don't match a hole on the motherboard, you will simply leave it away. Sometimes, you will find some holes on the motherboard that don't match any hole on the plate. That's normal too. In Figure 5, you can see a hole on the motherboard that doesn't match any hole on the plate. Figura 5: Matching the holes on the metallic plate with the holes on the motherboard.

III) Together with the case come a lot of small pieces. From these pieces you will need screws and screw nuts to install the motherboard. Take the screw nuts and install them on all the plate holes that matched a hole on the motherboard. They can be easily installed by turning them clock wise using your thumb and index finger.Figura 6: Screw nuts, screws and washers that come with the case

Lay down the motherboard on the metallic plate again, placing a screw on every motherboard hole that matches a nut that you've installed. You will find two kinds of holes: metalized and non-metalized. The metalized holes have a metallic contact around them. Pay attention in Figure 7 to see the difference between these two kinds of holes.

Figura 7: Metalized x non-metalized holes.

Figura 11: A man assembling a computer.

Leia o manual a seguir e descubra como montar um computador:

The Components

The first step to building a computer is acquiring the parts. A computer is made up of a case, which houses several internal components, and the external components, including peripherals.Here is what you need:Power Supply/PSU

Motherboard/Mainboard

Processor/Central Processing Unit (CPU)

Random Access Memory (RAM)

Hard Drive/Hard Disk (HD)

Optical Drive Device

Video Card/Graphics Card/GPU

Figura 1 a video card

Figura 2 Video c

Figura 3

Figura 12: A Video card

On top of the internal components listed above, you will also need these external components:a keyboard

a mouse

a monitor

speakers

a printer

Installing the Motherboard

Check the backpanel template. It's the plate through which the connectors for the keyboard, mouse, etc show through. The motherboard comes with a replacement template. You may have to replace the one in the case.Lay the case on its side.Place the motherboard in the case. Make sure that all connectors on the backpanel are properly exposed through the backpanel template.Fasten with 6 screws.

Figura 13: A motherboard.Be sure that the cooling fan you choose is compatible with your motherboard.Install the CPU

The CPU interface is the plug that your processor goes into. For your processor to physically fit in the motherboard, the interface must be an exact match to your processor.

Figura 14: Examples of CPUs.

Installing the CPU:Open (lift) the CPU socket lever.Look carefully at the pin arrangement on the CPU and the CPU socket. It is constructed so that it only fits one way.Do not force the CPU. It's a zero-force insertion socket.Lower the CPU socket lever and press in and under to latch it.

Figura 15: Attaching the CPU.

Attach the heatsink and fan.Figura 16: Attaching the heatsink and fan.

A few hints:Make sure that you use a small, flat blade screwdriver that fits securely in the attachment bracket.

Figura 17: A flat blade screwdriver.

After you have attached both ends of the bracket, make sure that they are seated properly and hooked securely.

Make sure that the power connector from the fan is close enough to the CPU fan power connector on the motherboard.

Be sure to connect the heatsink power connector.

4. Attach the Power Supply and Other ConnectorsThe power supply has a single, large, rectangular connector. Insert this in the power connector on the motherboard. The other connectors from the case are tricky. Look at:The writing on the connectors at the end of the wires from the case.

The instructions that came with the case.

The diagram and chart in the manual for the motherboard.

Match the wires from the case to the connectors on the motherboard and connect.Other connectors:USB - In addition to the USB 2.0 ports provided on the backpanel, most motherboards will have connectors for additional ports, either on the front of the case or in a panel that fits where a PCI card might otherwise be connected.USB 2.0 ports are used for connecting various peripherals such as printers, external hard drives etc.USB connectors are also used for connecting iPods, MP3 players, and digital cameras.Given the growing popularity of USB devices, the more ports your motherboard supports, the better.Serial (COM) or parallel (printer) ports - Traditional 9-pin serial and parallel ports are much less used than they used to be. Many motherboards have dropped the parallel port altogether, while serial ports, which once numbered as many as four, are now usually solitary. The principal use for serial ports was once connection to either a mouse or an external modem, both of these devices now connect via USB.IEEE firewire - Firewire ports are principally used for connecting Digital Video (DV) cameras and external hard drives.Figura 18: A power supply.

Install the Random Access Memory (RAM)

The amount of RAM you use has become a simple choice. You just have to choose between installing one gig or two. One gig of RAM is plenty for most modern operating systems but all of them will run a little faster with two.Some specialized applications may profit from more than two gig of RAM. If you are planning on using such, make sure you check that both your operating system and your motherboard will accommodate the amount of RAM you have in mind.The actual type of RAM you will need depends on the motherboard and chipset you get. Some current motherboards use Double Data Rate (DDR) RAM but the industry is increasingly turning towards DDR2 RAM. Chipsets that use dual-channel memory require you to use two identical (in terms of size and speed) sticks of RAM.Figura 19: Memory.

Your RAM should usually operate at the same clock speed as the CPUs Front Side Bus (FSB). Your motherboard may not be able to run RAM slower than the FSB, and using RAM faster than the FSB will simply have it run at the same speed as your FSB. Buying low-latency RAM will help with overclocking your FSB, which can be of use to people who want to get more speed from their system.

Install the Hard Disk

Set the jumper on the drive (next to the connector) to select "Master".

7. Place the hard disk in the case and fasten with 4 screws.

Figura 20: A hard drive.Connect the hard disk to the motherboard to IDE slot 1. The motherboard comes with an IDE connector cable. The motherboard has two sockets (connectors) for IDE devices. They should be labeled "IDE1" and "IDE2". Connect one of the power supply cables to the hard drive.Install the CD-ROM Drive

Even if you dont plan on watching or copying DVDs on your computer, it is still worth purchasing a burner for their superior backup capabilities.Figura 21: A DVD burner.Installing CD-ROM Drive:Set the jumper on the CD-ROM drive. Here you have a choice. You can either:Attach the CD-ROM to IDE connector 1 and make the CD-ROM a slave. In this case, you will set the jumper on the CD-ROM to "Slave" and attach the CD-ROM drive to the same IDE cable as the hard drive. Or,

Attach the CD-ROM to IDE connector 2 and make the CD-ROM a master. In this case you will set the jumper on the CD-ROM to "Master" and attach the CD-ROM drive with a separate cable to IDE slot 2. In order to use this method, you will need a second IDE cable.

Connect one of the power supply cables to the CD-ROM drive.

Install Modem

A modem is needed in order to connect to a dial up internet connection. A modem can also be used for faxing. Modems can attach to the computer in different ways, and can have built-in processing or use the computers CPU for processing.Modems with built-in processing generally include all modems that connect via a standard serial port, as well as any modems that refer to themselves as Hardware Modems. Software Modems, or modems that rely on the CPU generally include both Internal and USB modems, or have packaging that mentions drivers or requiring a specific CPU to work.Modems that rely on the CPU are often designed specifically for the current version of Windows only, and will require drivers that are incompatible with future Windows versions, and may be difficult to upgrade. Software Modems are also very difficult to find drivers for non-Windows operating systems. The manufacturer is unlikely to support the hardware with new drivers after it is discontinued, forcing you to buy new hardware. Most such modems are internal or external USB, but this is not always the case.

Figura 22: Modem.

Modems can be attached via USB, a traditional serial port, or an internal card slot. Internal and USB modems are more easily autodetected by the operating system and less likely to have problems with setup. USB and serial port modems often require an extra power supply block. 9. Install Floppy DriveThough Floppy drives have been made largely obsolete in recent years by devices such as USB and CD writers, they are often installed anyway because they are sometimes required for BIOS updates and exchanging small files with older computers. Floppy drives block air movement with wide cables, and can make computers set to check the drive take longer to start.One option to overcome the cable problem and to make it easier to install is to buy an external USB floppy drive. These are potentially a little bit faster and can be plugged into a different system (such as a laptop without a floppy drive.) However, not all systems support booting from a USB floppy drive most notably older motherboards.

Peripherals

Anything outside the case that connects to your computer is considered a peripheral. The keyboard, mouse and monitor are pretty much the minimum you can go with and still be able to interact with your computer. Your choice in peripherals depends on personal preference and what you intend to do with your computer.

Mouse and keyboardFigura 23: An optical mouse.

There are, broadly, two types of mouse: optical and mechanical. Mechanical mice use a rubber coated ball bearing that contacts the mousepad or other surface and actually rolls around. Optical mice use a bright light and a sensor to track the movement of the mouse.Figura 24: Keyboard models.

Wireless keyboards and mice do not now display the sort of noticeable delay that they once did, and now also have considerably improved battery life.

Printer and scanner

For most purposes, a mid-range inkjet printer will work well for most people.You will want to compare the speed of various printers, which is usually listed in ppm (pages per minute). When choosing a printer, always check how much new cartridges cost.

Figura 25: Models of printers and scanners.

DisplayFigura 27: A Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) screen.Figura 26: A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) screen.

When choosing a display for your computer, you have two choices: a Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) screen, or a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) screen. Both technologies have their advantages and disadvantages: CRTs have been preferred by gamers and graphic artists, for their generally superior response times and color gamut, but this is offset by the added size and weight that a large screen requires. CRTs are still somewhat cheaper in sizes of 17 inches or less but LCDs are generally less expensive than CRTs in sizes above 17 inches. In sizes above 21 inches LCDs are far cheaper, and much easier to find. High-end LCD models are generally preferred for tasks which need higher definition, such as movie editing, and are also popular amongst people with little-to-no desk space, as they do not need as much space as a similarly-sized CRT.

Speakers

Computer speaker sets come in two general varieties: 2/2.1 sets and surround, theater, or gaming with four or more speakers, which tend to be somewhat more expensive. Low-end speakers can suffer from low bass response or inadequate amplification, both of which compromise sound quality. Powered speakers with separate sub-woofers can sound much better.

Leia o texto a seguir e descubra como surgiu a Internet:

THE INTERNET

Figura 29: How the Internet works.

The Internet is a global network of computers. Every computer that is connected to the Internet is considered a part of that network. This means even your home computer.At the top of the tree is the high-capacity backbones. All of these interconnect at 'Network Access Points' (NAPs) at important regions around the world. The entire Internet is based on agreements between these backbone providers who set in place all the fibre optics lines and other technical aspects of the Internet.The Internet has its origins in the creative work of the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) of the U.S. government. APRA heavily developed communication systems, and a computer communications network called ARPANet in 1969. The ARPANet connected up academic and government institutions. The network was mainly used for accessing files and to send email.Since 1983, the Internet has accommodated a lot of changes.The Internet continues to evolve, and is becoming available on a wider selection of technologies, such as mobile phones, pagers and possibly on televisions in the future.The actual term "Internet" was finally defined in 1995 by The Federal Networking Council. "Internet" refers to the global information system that: (1) is logically linked together by a globally unique address space based on the Internet Protocol (IP) or its subsequent extensions/follow-ons; (2)is able to support communications using the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) suite or its subsequent extensions/follow-ons, and/or other IP-compatible protocols and (3) provides, uses or makes accessible, either publicly or privately, high level services layered on the communications and related infrastructure described herein.The Internet and the World Wide Web are closely related but are not the same.What's on the Internet besides the Web? E-mail, file transfer, instant messaging programs, online gaming, and so on.The most popular actions of the Internet are: to send e-mail, to view web sites, to download files such as mp3 and images, to chat with people live online, to post messages on newsgroups and forums, to play multiplayer games online, to watch movies and TV programs, to chat and view on webcams, and so on (Extrado de http://www.internet-guHYPERLINK "http://www.internet-guide.co.uk/what-is-the-internet.html"ide.co.uk/what-is-the-internet.html, em 20 de junho de 2011.

Circule no texto as palavras que so novas para voc. A seguir, descubra o significado delas em um dicionrio. Escreva abaixo as palavras em ingls e em portugus:

Agora leia a prximo texto The World Wide Web e sublinhe nele todas as palavras cognatas e aquelas que so repetidas.

The World Wide Web

The World Wide Web ("WWW" or simply the "Web") is a global information medium which users can read and write via computers connected to the Internet. The term is often mistakenly used as a synonym for the Internet itself, but the Web is a service that operates over the Internet, as e-mail does. The history of the Internet dates back significantly further than that of the World Wide Web.Nowadays, after lots of investments in new technology, the connectivity charges are lower than in the past, helping to make high-speed Internet connectivity more affordable.A handful of companies found success developing business models that helped make the World Wide Web a more compelling experience. These include airline booking sites, Google's search engine, etc.In this new era, social networking websites, such as MySpace and Facebook, which, though unpopular at first, very rapidly gained acceptance in becoming a major part of youth culture.

5. De acordo com o texto acima, o que significa o termo: The World Wide Web?

6. Traduza o ltimo pargrafo do texto.

7. Agora leia o texto The Web 2.0. Do que trata o texto? O que significa o termo Web 2.0?

THE WEB 2.0

Beginning in 2002, new ideas for sharing and exchanging content ad hoc, such as Weblogs, rapidly gained acceptance on the Web. This new model for information exchange was coined Web 2.0.The Web 2.0 boom saw many new service-oriented startups catering to a new, democratized Web.Predictably, as the World Wide Web (WWW) became easier to query, the Web 2.0 attained a higher degree of usability, gained a sense of organization and unsophistication which ushered in a rapid period of popularization.New sites such as Wikipedia proved revolutionary in executing the User Edited Content Concept.In 2005, three ex-PayPal employees formed a video viewing website called YouTube. Only a year later, YouTube was proven the most quickly popularized website in history, and even started a new concept of user-submitted content in major events.The popularity of YouTube and similar services, combined with the increasing availability and affordability of high-speed connections has made video content far more common on all kinds of websites.This combination of more user-created or edited content, and easy means of sharing content, has led to many sites with a typical "Web 2.0" feel. They have articles with embedded video, user-submitted comments below the article, etc.Continued extension of the WWW has focused on connecting devices to the Internet. As Internet connectivity becomes ubiquitous, manufacturers have started to leverage the expanded computing power of their devices to enhance their usability and capability. Through Internet connectivity, manufacturers are now able to interact with the devices they have sold and shipped to their customers, and customers are able to interact with the manufacturer (and other providers) to access new content.Lending credence to the idea of the ubiquity of the web, Web 2.0 has found a place in the global English lexicon. On June 10, 2009 the Global Language Monitor declared it to be the one-millionth English word. (Extrado de http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_World_Wide_Web em 20 de junho de 2011.

9. O que explica o 8 pargrafo do texto?

10. A seguir, leia rapidamente o texto sobre Wikipedia e explique, primeiramente, o que exatamente a Wikipedia:

WIKIPEDIA

Wikipedia is a free, web-based, collaborative, multilingual encyclopedia project supported by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation. Its 18 million articles (over 3.6 million in English) have been written collaboratively by volunteers around the world, and almost all of its articles can be edited by anyone with access to the site.As of May 2011, there were editions of Wikipedia in 281 languages. Wikipedia was launched in 2001 by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger and has become the largest and most popular general reference work on the Internet.The name Wikipedia was coined by Larry Sanger and is a portmanteau of wiki (a technology for creating collaborative websites, from the Hawaiian word wiki, meaning "quick") and encyclopedia. Wikipedia's departure from the expert-driven style of encyclopedia building and the large presence of unacademic content has been noted several times. Time magazine acknowledged the accelerating success of online collaboration and interaction by millions of users around the world and cited Wikipedia as one of several examples of Web 2.0 services, along with YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook. Some have noted the importance of Wikipedia not only as an encyclopedic reference but also as a frequently updated news resource because of how quickly articles about recent events appear.Although the policies of Wikipedia strongly espouse verifiability and a neutral point of view, critics of Wikipedia accuse it of systemic bias and inconsistencies and allege that it favors consensus over credentials in its editorial processes. Its reliability and accuracy are also targeted. Other criticisms center on its susceptibility to vandalism and the addition of spurious or unverified information; however, scholarly work suggests that vandalism is generally short-lived.

A computer is a programmable machine that stores and retrieves data.

When we talk about computers, we have to consider the hardware and the software.

The hardware consists of all the electronic and mechanical parts that make up a computer system.

The software is the collection of data and programs needed to solve problems with a computer.

Most people don't know exactly what goes on inside of their computers.

The most visible parts of the system may be easy to understand.

The hard drive is where all the information on the computer is stored.

The memory is different from the hard drive because it is not permanent.

The memory is simply a place for the computer to store information temporarily while it performs certain functions.

Other computer parts include CD and DVD drives which can read information off CDs and DVDs.
