II. INTERPRETAO DE TEXTOS


1- Tcnicas de Leitura
As tcnicas de leitura, como o prprio nome diz, vo nos ajudar a ler um texto. Existem
tcnicas variadas, mas veremos as mais utilizadas. Ao ler um texto em Ingls, lembre-se de
usar as tcnicas aprendidas, elas vo ajud-lo. O uso da gramtica vai ajudar tambm.
As principais tcnicas so: a identificao de cognatos, de palavras repetidas e de pistas
tipogrficas. Ao lermos um texto vamos,ainda, apurar a idia geral do texto (general
comprehension) e utilizar duas outras tcnicas bastante teis: skimming e scanning.
1.1- Cognatos
Os cognatos so palavras muito parecidas com as palavras do Portugus. So as
chamadas palavras transparentes. Existem tambm os falsos cognatos, que so palavras que
achamos que tal coisa, mas no ; os falsos cognatos so em menor nmero, estes ns
veremos adiante.
Como cognatos podemos citar: school (escola), telephone (telefone), car (carro), question
(questo, pergunta), activity (atividade), training (treinamento)... Voc mesmo poder criar sua
prpria lista de cognatos!
1.2- Palavras repetidas
As palavras repetidas em um texto possuem um valor muito importante. Um autor no
repete as palavras em vo. Se elas so repetidas, porque so importantes dentro de texto.
Muitas vezes para no repetir o mesmo termo, o autor utiliza sinnimos das mesmas palavras
para no tornar o texto cansativo.
1.3- Pistas tipogrficas
As pistas tipogrficas so elementos visuais que nos auxiliam na compreenso do texto.
Ateno com datas, nmeros, tabelas, grficas, figuras... So informaes tambm contidas no
texto. Os recursos de escrita tambm so pistas tipogrficas. Por exemplo:
... (trs pontos) indicam a continuao de uma idia que no est ali exposta;
negrito d destaque a algum termo ou palavra;
itlico tambm destaca um termo, menos importante que o negrito;
(aspas) salientam a importncia de alguma palavra;
( ) (parnteses) introduzem uma idia complementar ao texto.

1.4- General Comprehension

A idia geral de um texto obtida com o emprego das tcnicas anteriores. Selecionando
se criteriosamente algumas palavras, termos e expresses no texto, poderemos chegar idia
geral do texto. Por exemplo, vamos ler o trecho abaixo e tentar obter a general
comprehension deste pargrafo:
Distance education takes place when a teacher and students are separated by physical
distance, and technology (i.e., voice, video and data), often in concert with face-to-face
communication, is used to bridge the instructional gap.
From: Engineering Outreach
College of Engineering University of Idaho
A partir das palavras cognatas do texto (em negrito) podemos ter um a idia geral do que
se trata; vamos enumerar as palavras conhecidas (pelo menos as que so semelhantes ao
Portugus):
distance education = educao a distancia
students = estudantes, alunos
separeted = separado
physical distance = distncia fsica
technology = tecnologia
voice, video, data = voz, vdeo e dados (ateno: data no data)
face-to-face communication = comunicao face-a-face
used = usado (a)
instructional = instrucional
Ento voc poderia dizer que o texto trata sobre educao a distncia; que esta ocorre
quando os alunos esto separados fisicamente do professor; a tecnologia (voz, vdeo, dados)
podem ser usados de forma instrucional.
Voc poderia ter esta concluso sobre o texto mesmo sem ter muito conhecimento de
Ingls. claro que medida que voc for aprendendo, a sua percepo sobre o texto tambm
aumentar. H muitas informaes que no so to bvias assim.

skim em ingls deslizar superfcie, desnatar (da skimmed milk = leite desnatado), passar
os olhos por. A tcnica de skimming nos leva a ler um texto superficialmente. Utilizar esta
tcnica significa que precisamos ler cada sentena, mas sim passarmos os olhos por sobre o
texto, lendo algumas frases aqui e ali, procurando reconhecer certas palavras e expresses
que sirvam como dicas na obteno de informaes sobre o texto. s vezes no necessrio
ler o texto em detalhes. Para usar esta tcnica, precisamos nos valer dos nossos
conhecimentos de Ingls tambm.
Observe este trecho:
Using this integrated approach, the educators task is to carefully select among the
technological options. The goal is to build a mix of instructional media, meeting the needs of the
learner in a manner that is instructionally effective and economically prudent.
From: Engineering Outreach
College of Engineering University of Idaho
Selecionando algumas expresses teremos:
integrated approach = abordagem (approach = abordagem, enfoque) integrada
educators task = tarefa (task = tarefa) do educador s significa posse = do
tecnological options = opes tecnolgicas (tecnological adjetivo)
goal = objetivo
a mix instrucional media = uma mistura de mdia instrucional.
Com a tcnica do skimming podemos dizer que este trecho afirma que a tarefa do
educador selecionar as opes tecnolgicas; o objetivo ter uma mistura de mdias
instrucionais de uma maneira instrucionalmente efetiva e economicamente prudente.
1.6- Scanning
Scan em Ingls quer dizer examinar, sondar, explorar. O que faz um scanner? Uma
varredura, no ?! Logo, com a tcnica de scanning voc ir fazer uma varredura do texto,
procurando detalhes e idias objetivas. Aqui importante que voc utilize os conhecimentos de
Ingls; por isso, ns vamos ver detalhadamente alguns itens gramaticais no ser Estudo da
Lngua Inglesa.
Olhe este trecho:
Teaching and learning at a distance is demanding. However, learning will be more
meaningful and deeper for distant students, if students and their instructor share responsibility
for developing learning goals: actively interacting with class members; promoting reflection on

experience; relating new information to examples that make sense to learners. This is the
challenge and the opportunity provided by distance education.
Poderamos perguntar qual o referente do pronome their em negrito no trecho?
Utilizando a tcnica de skimming, seria necessrio retornar ao texto e entender a sentena na
qual o pronome est sendo empregado. Their um pronome possessivo ( e como tal,
sempre vem acompanhado de um substantivo) da terceira pessoa do plural ( o seu referente
um substantivo no plural). A traduo de their instructor seria seu instrutor . Seu de quem?
Lendo um pouco para trs, vemos que h students; logo conclumos que their refere-se a
students, ou seja, instrutor dos alunos.

2- TEXTO 1
Every day more and more of us find that computers have become part of our daily
background: magazines we read have been typeset by computers, architects have designed
our houses with the help of computers, our paylips are printed by computers, we pay bills
prepared by computers, using checks marked with computer symbols, and the payments result
in bank statements prepared by computers. Even more directly associated with the machines
are those who use them in their day-today work scientists and storekeepers, clerks and
directors, soldiers and sailors, accountants and engineers besides the growing numbers of
computer personal who are responsible for making the machines do the work. Each of us,
whether layman, computer use or computer technician, will have problems with computer
terminology.

3- TEXTO 2
In the beginning, there was the analog cell phone. And then the cell phone went digital.
And that provides a clearer connection and more reability. Now the future of technology appears
to be in the hands of the mobile phone industry. Cell phones and handhelds are everywhere.
The future is now, and it is wireless. Except the future is still the future. Wireless technology is
relatively young. The first generation has been around only since the early 1980s, when analog
voice transmission networks were introduced. The second generation took over in the mid-90s
with the advent of digital wireless voice and data networks, giving us the capabilities that
spawned the cell phone revolution we know today.
Now comes the so-called third generation or 3G which generally refers to networks
capable of connecting to the Internet at speeds 40 tines the rate of todays cell phones,
promising Interneting connections will be fast enough to download streaming audio and files,
swap digital photos, and hold teleconferences. It will also use the existing spectrum space more
efficiently and increase the speeds with which basic data can be transmitted over wireless
devices.

Lamps can be connected in series or in parallel. If you connect lamps in parallel the lamps
stay the same brightness however many lamps you add. This is because the voltage across
every lamp is the same. In your house the lamps are connected in parallel. This means that
even if you have all the lights on, the lights do not dim.

employs a direct knob control system.
( 2 ) Compact and light COR 5500U series is very compact and light for its sophisticated
functions and reliable performance. This has become feasible through dexterous use of flushmount components.
( 3 ) CRT readout It displays various items of information on the CRT screen, providing
you with powerful means for rapid but accurate measurements.
( 4 ) Comment display You can display comments by using this feature.
( 5 ) Alternate magnified sweeps This feature allows you to magnify readily any portion of
the waveform you want to observe more closely. This time base can be magnified by 5,10 or 50
times. The Alternate Magnified Sweep mode, which runs a mains sweep and magnified sweep
alternately, is also available.
( 6 ) Sampling rate up to 20 MS/s Each channel has a 5 bit A/D converter, allowing you
to store the single-shot data from both channels simultaneously. In single Trigger Mode, you
can capture frequency components up to 5.7 MHz (when Curve Interpolation is used).
( 7 ) 4k words/ channel memory capacity each channel has a 4k word memory, and
resolutions of 400 points per one division horizontally. The stored and reproduced waveforms
closely resemble the original analog ones. COR 5500U series has two 4k-word Saving Memory
units. The memory units are internally backed up so that the data is not destroyed even if the
power is turned off. The data is maintained for a longer period.
( 8 ) Repetitive mode The COR 5500U can store repetitive signals up to 100 MHz.
5.3- PRECAUTIONS
( 1 ) Receiving Inspections The oscilloscope has been subjected to electrical and
mechanical tests to guarantee the satisfactory quality and performance.

Before connecting the power cable to the AC inlet of the oscilloscope, check the type and
rating of the power fuse. The fuse holder of the oscilloscope is structured integrally with the AC
inlet. The fuse holder cap can be detached by using a screwdriver or a pointed tool as showing
bellow. Two fuses (one of which is for replacement spare) are put in the cap.
Take out the fuse and check that is a slow-blow fuse of 250 V AC, 2 A. Return the fuse
and cap to the original positions by following the take out procedure in the reverse order. Fully
insert the cap until it clicks.
When you replace the fuse with a new one, make sure to use a correct one. The spare
fuse is put in the fuse hold cap. When the fuse has also used up, you may use a new one
available on the market, but be sure that it is the correct type and rating.
Warnings: Never use a wrong or incorrect fuse. Never short-circuit the fuse holder
terminals instead of the fuse. These operations might result in serious damage and hazards.
( 3 ) Checking the power cable - Be sure that the power cable is supplied as an accessory
of the oscilloscope. The power cable has a 3-color wire and a 3-pin receptacle; one of the three
pins being for safety grounding.
( 4 ) Environments
Avoid using oscilloscope in environments as mentioned below:
a) High temperature Do not expose the oscilloscope to direct sunlight or other source of heat.
The ambient temperature range for the guaranteed performance is 10 to 40C or 50 to 104F.
b) High humidity Do not use the oscilloscope in high humidity. The humidity range for
guaranteed performance is up to 75% RH.
c) Electronic magnetic field - Do not use the oscilloscope in strong electric or magnetic field, lest
the displayed images should be distorted, or otherwise adversely affected.
d) Unstable position - Do not use the oscilloscope on a swaying bench or other unstable
positon.
e) Flammable atmosphere - Do not use the oscilloscope in flammable or explosive atmosphere,
to prevent fire and explosion hazards.
f) Blocked ventilations holes Do not block the rear, side and button panels. Provide an ample
space behind the rear panel, where the air-cooling fan is installed on.
( 5 ) Preserving the CRT
CRT intensity - In order prevent permanent damage to the CRT phosphor, do not make
the CRT trace Excessively bright or leave the beam spot stationary for an unreasonably long
time

5.8- Electronic Circuits
5.8.1- Introduction
This unit introduces you to electronic circuits and explains the meaning of current, voltage
and resistance. You will find out about Ohms equations and about some of the components
used in building electronic circuits.
5.8.2- Shining a light
Have you ever taken an torch to pieces to find out how does it work? Look at Fig. 1 below,
which shows the arrangement of parts inside a torch.
Why did the designer of the torch choose this particular combination of materials?
The metal parts must conduct electric current if the torch is to function, but they must also
be able to stand up to physical forces.
The spring holding the cells in place should stay springy, while the parts of the switch
must make good electrical contact and be undamaged by repeated use.
Which materials used in making a torch are conductors and which are insulators?
( ) plastic
( ) copper
( ) tungsten (lamp filament)
( ) glass (outside of lamp)
5.8.3- Drawing a circuit diagram
A different way of describing the torch is by using a circuit diagram in which the parts of
the torch are represented by symbols.
In Fig. 2 there are two electric cells (batteries), a switch and a lamp (the torch bulb). The
lines in the diagram represent the metal conductors which connect the system together.
A circuit is a closed conducting path. In the torch, closing the switch completes the circuit
and allows current to flow. Torches sometimes fail when the metal parts of the switch do not
make proper contact, or when the lamp filament is blown. In either case, the circuit is
incomplete. The diagrams show different arrangements of cells, switches and lamps.
5.8.4- Current

An electric current is a flow of charged particles. Current is sometimes carried by positively


charged particles, but inside a copper wire, current is carried by small negarively charged
particles, called electrons. Metals, such as copper, contain free electrons, which drift in rang]don
directions as shown in.
5.8.5- Voltage
Each cell provide a push, called its potencial difference or voltage. This is represented by
the symbol V, and is measured in volts, V. Sometimes, you will want to measure voltages in
thousands of a volt, or milivolts, mV.
Typically, each cell provides 1.5 V. If cells are joined together one after the other, they are
said to be connected in series. Two 1.5 V cells connected in series provide 3V, while three cells
provide 4.5 V.
5.8.6- Resistance
If a thick copper wire is connected from the positive terminal of a battery directly to the
negative terminal, you get a very large current for a very short time. In a torch, this does not
happen. Part of the torch circuit limits, or resists, the flow of current. Most of the circuit consists
of thick metal conductors which allow current to flow easily. These parts, including the spring,
switch plates and lamp connections, have a low resistance.
The flow of current through the filament causes it to heat up and glow white hot. Lamp
filaments are usually made of the metal tungsten because of its very high melting point. In hair,
the filament would quickly oxidize. This is prevented by removing all the air inside the glass of
the lamp and replacing it with a non-reactive gas.
5.8.7- Ohms equations
The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance was discovered by Georg Ohm,
who published his results in 1827.
Ohm made his won wires and was able to show that the size of an electric current depend
upon their length and thickness. The current was reduced by increasing the length of the wire or
by making it thinner. Current was increased if a shorter thicker wire was used. In addition, larger
currents were observed when the voltage across the wire was increased.
From experiments like these, Ohm found that, at constant temperature, the ratio of voltage
to current was constant for any particular wire, that is:
Where, R = resistance, V = voltage and I = current.
Ohms Law states that, at constant temperature, the electric current flowing in a
conducting material is directly proportional to the applied voltage, and inversely proportional to
the resistance.

Rearranging the formula gives two additional equations:


And
These simple equations are fundamental to electronics and, once you have learned to use
them effectively, you will find that they are the key to a wide range of circuit problems. You are
going to need these equations, so learn them now.
5.8.8- Did you know? Light bulbs
The lamp filament was first invented in 1860 by a British physicist, Sir Joseph Swan. When
electric current passes through a thin filament of conducting material, the filament heats up and,
if the current is large enough, the filament becomes first red hot and then white hot, or
incandescent. In air, this effect is short-lived because the filament burns up and breaks. Swan
had the idea of enclosing the filament in a glass container, preventing oxidation by removing the
air inside the container using a vacuum pump.
These early experiments suggested that a useful light source was possible, but Swan did
not have as sufficiently powerful vacuum pump. Years later, Swan tried again using a better
vacuum pump. In 1878, he has successful in demonstrating a true incandescent light bulb.
The American Thomas Edison demonstrated a similar lamp in 1879. However, his real
contribution was to develop not just the light bulb but the whole concept of electric power into a
practical, safe and e economic system. In September 1882, the first commercial power station
went into operation, providing light and power to customers in part of Manhattan. The electric
age had begun.
Edison tested thousands of different filament materials. The first commercial lamps had
filaments made of carbon. This was later replaced by tungsten, a metal with a particularity high
melting point.
In modern filament lamp, a very fine tungsten wire is coiled in a tiny spiral.This spiral is
coiled again to make a coiled coil. This arrangement concentrates the heat produced as
current passes through the wire, causing the filament to heat up and reach incandescence
much more quickly. The space inside the lamp is filled with a non-reactive gas, usually an
argon/ nitrogen mixture.
The outline of most parts of the world is identified clearly by city lights. Only recently have
people stared to worry about all the energy used in lighting and how it affects global warming.
The filament lamp is not very efficient and converts just 10 per cent of its energy into light. The
rest is wasted as heat. Energy efficient light bulbs use a different technology and use three to
four times less energy for the same light output. Every home should have them!
The race is on for lighting manufacturers to find ways of making lighting more energy
efficient. Huge savings could be made. Its possible that in a few years you will be albe to light
your house using super-efficient giant LEDs (light-emitting diodes).

5.8.9-Parallel lamps
Lamps can be connected in series or in parallel. If you connect the lamps stay the same
brightness however many lamps you add. This is because the voltage across every lamp is the
same. In your house the lamps are connected in parallel; this means that even if you have all
the lights on, the lights do not dim.
5.8.10- Batteries
Batteries are a source of electrical energy. The energy is stored as chemical energy and is
converted into electrical energy as it is required. The more energy a battery stores the longer it
will last.
Different types of batteries have different voltages. The voltage is a measure of the
strength of the battery. The higher the voltage, the brighter the bulb and the faster the motor. As
a battery runs out its voltage gradually drops.
Many batteries have a voltage of 1.5 V. for most lamps this is not enough, so often two
batteries are connected in series. This doubles the voltage to 3 V.
5.8.11- Fuses
Electricity can be dangerous if you short a battery or the supply in your house a very high
current flows. Sometimes the wires which carry the current heat up and melt. This may cause a
fire or an explosion.
Fuses protect against fire caused by electrical faults. When the current gets too high, fuses
burn out and break the circuit. This stops the wires from burning. After a fuse burns out, a
qualified person must find the fault before the fuse is replaced.
5.8.12- Electric Circuits
Electricity is a very useful type of energy. The beauty of electricity is that it can be
generated in one place and used in another place. For example, the lamps in your house could
be lit by electricity generated by solar panels on the top of a hill. Electric current can flow along
move around circuits (loops) like the chain moves on a bicycle. This is why batteries have two
terminals. Current flows out of the positive terminal and into the negative terminal. If there is a
break in the circuit then current cannot flow.
5.8.13- Inductor
An inductor stores energy in an electromagnetic field created by changes in current
through it.
Its ability to oppose a change in current flow is called inductance, L, and is measured in
henrys. An inductor can have any value form H to H.

5.8.14- Electric motors


Electrical energy can be converted into mechanical energy using an electric motor. Electric
motors are used in many products. One of the most important uses of the elecrric motor is in
electric cars.
5.8.15- Flashlights
You can make a flashlight by connecting a lamp across a battery. This would not be a
good flashlight because the lamp would always be on. To turn on and off you need to add a
switch. Simple switches have two terminals together. This allows current to flow around the
circuit.
5.8.16- Dimming lights
Switches are useful if you want to turn a circuit on or off. But sometimes you also want to
vary how much current flow around a circuit. For example, some lamps have a knob to control
their brightness.
Putting a resistor in a circuit reduces the current. The higher of the resistor the more the
current is reduced. So a resistor can be used to dim lights.
5.8.17- Capacitor
A capacitor stores electrical energy in the form of electrostatic field. Capacitors are widely
used to filter or remove AC signals form a variety of circuits. In a DC circuit, they can be used to
block the flow of direct current while allowing AC signals to pass.
A capacitors capacity to sore energy is called is capacitance, C, which is measured in
farads. It can have any value form pF to mF.
5.8.18- Linear Resistors
Resistors are the most numerous components en electronics. Because of their frequent
use, they determine the rehabilitee of the whole system in many ways. The ideal resistor has a
purely real conductance. When a voltage is applied, the electrical energy is converted into
thermal energy. Since many of the resistors electrical characteristics are dependent on the
temperature, the behavior of the resistancetemperature curve is significant for determining the
range of possible applications.
We speak of linear resistors or ohmic resistors, when their voltage/ current behavior is
linear and obeys Ohms Law R= V/l (where R= resistance, V= voltage, l= current). As a rule the
resistance is temperature dependent: RT = TT0 . (1 + . T). T is the temperature variation
and is the temperature coefficient.

6.1- General
The region under consideration is Northeast Brazil between 1 and 18 south latitude and
between 35 and 47 west longitude. This covers an area of almost 1.6 million km2. This region
exhibits a pronounced time and space variability in the rainfall distribution, with a drastic dry
inland region where the annual normal rainfall is below 500 millimeters (~ 20 inches). Serious
social and economic problems result from the regional population requirements of over 20
million people and their dependence upon agriculture. It is noteworthy that the region is located
in a latitudinal band where a regular distribution of rainfall should be expected. This region was
first settled in the early 16th century. It is felt that in previous centuries the rainfall was
somewhat greater than it is now. Some natural or man induced climate changes may have
taken place. It is difficult to forecast the wheather in this area due to the lack of detailed
knowledge of the tropospheric wind structure and its influence on meteorological phenomena.
Careful investigation of the relationship between wind, temperature, moisture and weather
distribution, as well as the orographic influences, would provide a better understanding of the
rainfall amounts and their variability. This should increase the reliability of weather forecasts
required to carry out the many meteorologically sensitive human activities in this region. This is
the purpose of this study.
6.2- TESTS ON INDEPENDENT DATA
Standard statistical tests of significance are not strictly applicable to meteorological
prediction because the data are usually correlated in both space and time, and the weather
regime of one period may be entirely different from that of another. These difficulties were
compounded in the present study because the predictors were not chosen at random, and the
regression equations were derived from observed heights but applied to numerical prognostic
heights. Hence no tests of significance giving exact confidence intervals or probability levels
were applied. Instead all prediction equations were tested on independent data samples.
Unfortunately, however, these samples were rather limited in size because of paucity of data,
particularly in the form of numerical prognoses, so that the results of the prediction experiments
to be described here may not be duplicated on future samples. These results should therefore
be interpreted only as tentative and approximate indications, not as conclusive or quantitative
findings.
6.3- Assembly Languages
Assembly language is a programming language that talks fairly directly to the computer.
Unlike machine language, which is what the computer understands, assembly language is
mnemonic, so that it can be understood and remembered more easily by a human being; in fact,
assembly language is really just machine language in mnemonic form.
Assembly languages are specific to a given CPU chip and are named after it (e.g., 8080
assembly language, 6809 assembly language etc.). They are harder to program than a highlevel language, but they produce programs that are more efficient and run faster.

Magnetic tape it is one of the principal input/output recording media used with computers
and is mainly used for storing intermediate results of computations and for compact storing of
large amounts of data, in an ordered sequence. It is much cheaper to store information on tape
than in the computer main memory or on a disk memory device, but it takes longer to locate a
paritucular data item if it is stored on tape: data must be stored and accessed sequentially.
Magnetic disk it consists of a series of concentric paths or tracks each capable of storing data
in magnetically coded form. It looks like a phonograph record and a series of disks is mounted
on a vertical shaft. One or more access arms move into the disk to read or write the data stored
on it. Disks may be hard (made out of aluminum) or floppy (made out of plastic). Disks may be
permanently attached to the drive unit or they may be made up as removable disk packs. Disks
may be made even more efficient by using laser beam to read and write data.

6.5- Mainframes, Minicomputers and Microcomputers
A mainframe computer is a large computer system comprised of a large central processing
unit, separate memory banks, multiple data-storage devices and peripherals. It is found in
computer installations which process immense amounts of data. This powerful machine has a
larger repertoire of more complex instructions which can be executed more quickly.
A minicomputer is much smaller than the mainframe computer. It was developed to
perform limited functions in scientific environments with less computing capacity. It became
possible to reduce the size of the computer with the replacement of vacuum tubes by transistors
and the development of multicircuit chips.
A microcomputer is the smallest of the three sizes of computers. The central processor of
a micro, called the microprocessor, is built as a single semiconductor device, that is, all the
elements necessary to perform all the logical and arithmetic functions are manufactured as a
single chip. The microprocessor literally contains a computer on a chip that can pass through
the eye of a needle.

Comprised of = including = incluindo, compreendendo, composto de
Multiple = tendo muitas partes; mltiplo
Repertoire = repertrio, conjunto
Enveironments = surroundings = ambientes
6.6- The Concept of a Database
In general we might say that all the files that make up the data processing system of a
company form their database. However, the term database is now used in a much broader and
more comprehensive sense. To appreciate this let us contrast a conventional data processing
system and a database system.
A conventional data processing system consists of one or more separate files for each
application; in a database system a single large collection of data serves all applications.

6.7- What Happens Inside a Computer?
When we sit down at a computer, we type on a keyboard which is one of the means of
inputting data. And when we type on this keyboard, each letter or number is converted into a
series of 0s and 1s. This binary language is what the computer understands.
After being converted into 0s and 1s, the data are then changed into electrical impulses
which travel over a cable to the computer, where they are stored in memory. Each computer
word, called a byte, is assigned a place in a memory cell to await processing. The data, now in
the memory cells, are acted upon and processed according to the program being used. The
output, or final result, is then achieved and converted back into numbers and letters, which is
displayed on TV screen or printed on paper by a printer.
6.7.1- VOCABULARY
Keyboard = teclado
Binary language = linguagem que o computador entende, composta de zeros e uns; linguagem
binria.
Travel = passam de um ponto para outro
Byte = oito dgitos binrios; oito bis
Assigned = given = indicado, especificado
Achieved = accomplished = alcanado

6.8- Artificial Intelligence


Artificial intelligence is the branch of computer science that deals with using computers to
simulate human thinking. It s concerned with building computer programs that can solve
problems creatively, rather than simply working through the steps of a solution designed by the
programmer.
One of the main problems of artificial intelligence (AI) is how to represent knowledge in the
computer in a form such that it can be used rather than merely reproduced. A computer that
tells you the call number of a library book is not displaying artificial intelligence; it is merely
echoing back what was put into it. Artificial intelligence would come into play if the computer
used its knowledge base to make generalizations about the librarys holdings or construct
bibliographies on selected subjects.
6.8.1- VOCABULARY
Deals with = trata de
Rather than = em vez de
Echoing back = devolvendo
Would come into play = entraria em ao
Librarys holdings = arquivos da biblioteca
6.9- Binary Numbers
Binary numbers are well suited for use by computers, since many electrical devices have
two distinct states: on and off. They are the numbers computers themselves understand.
Composed entirely of zeros and ones, they express all values in powers of two.
The advantage of the binary system is that you only need two symbols (0 and 1) to
express any number, no matter how big it is. Since computers are basically just large groups of
switches, and since these switches can only be either on or off, binary system fits right in; you
just define 0 as off and 1 as on and then binary numbers tell the computer which switches to
throw.
The table below shows some numbers written in binary and decimal form. Note that writing
numbers in binary requires more digits than writing numbers in decimal.

6.10- Different Kinds of Memory
Read only memory (ROM) In most computers it is useful to have some of the instructions
or whole programs permanently stored inside the computer. There are particular kinds of chips
which enable us to do this so that the memory is not lost even when the machine is switched off.
These are called ROM chips. ROM stands for read-only memory. The word non-volatile is
often used to describe this kind of memory meaning that it is not destroyed when the power is
switched off.
Random-access memory (RAM) The other kind of memory found inside computers is
called RAM. Another name for it is read/write memory. RAM chips are the kind which lose their
contents when the power is lost so this kind of memory is sometimes also described as
volatile. In the computer, RAM is the working memory.
Back-up memory The last kind of memory which concerns us is back-up memory. This
is memory outside the main body of the computer in which programs can be kept for future use

6.11- Programming Languages
Just as there are many human languages, so there are many computer languages. In the
early days, people programmed using the computers binary code, or what we call machine
language. When this became difficult, mnemonics were used to make life easier. This is called
assembly language programming. Finnally, there are the high-level languages like BASIC,
FORTRAN and ALGOL. These are much more similar to everyday language, and are translated
directly or indirectly into the computers machine code using the computers firmware.
BASIC is the language most often used to introduce programming.
6.11.1- VOCABULARY
In the early days = no princpio, no incio
Mnemonics = arte de desenvolver a memria mediante processos auxiliares como a
associao; mnemnica
To make easier = tornar mais fcil
High-level = alto nvel
BASIC = Beginners All-puspose Symbolic Instruction Code
FORTRAN = FORmula TRANslation
ALGOL = ALGOrithmic Language
Firmware = software armazenado em ROM em vez de disco

An algorithm is a sequence of instructions that tells how to solve a particular problem.


Once the problem has been identified, the next step is to select the best method for solving it. If
the problem is a familiar one, standardized algorithms may be available from program libraries.
But if standard algorithms are not available or suitable, a new algorithm must be written and
then added to the program library. An algorithm must be specified exactly, so there can be no
doubt about what to do next, and it must have a finite number of steps.
A computer program is an algorithm that is written in a language that a computer can
understand, but the same algorithm could be wirtten in several different languages.

6.12.1- VOCABULARY
Once = uma vez
Standardized = padronizados
Added = acrescentado, incorporado
There can be no doubt = no pode haver dvida
Steps = passos, etapas
