A famous artist - Picasso
Pablo Picasso was born in 1881 in Malaga, Spain, the son of an artist, Jose Ruiz, and Maria Picasso. He took his mother's surname, [which] was more unusual than his father's. Picasso's [career] as an artist lasted [over] 75 years. Many people [believe] that he changed modern art more than any other artist of his [generation] Picasso died in France in 1973.
A love of Travelling
For Nigel Portman, a love of travelling began with what's called a 'gap year'. In common with many other British teenagers, he chose to take a year out, travelling in America and Asia, before [setting down] to study for his degree. Now that his university course has [come] to an end, Nigel is just about to leave on a three-year trip that will take him [right] around the world, using only 'natural' transport. In other words, he'll be [relying] mostly on bicycles and his own legs: and when there's an ocean to cross, he won't be taking a [short] cut by climbing aboard a plane, he'll be joining the crew of a sailing ship instead.

Birth of the movies
Moving pictures were invented by the brothers Louis and Auguste Lumiere at the end of the 19th century. Movies very [quickly] became popular all over the world. In 1907 the first studios were built in a [district] of Los Angeles called Hollywood. It was the perfect place, close to many kinds of natural scenery. [by/in] the 1920s, Hollywood was the center of the world film [industry]. To beginwith, the movies had no sound.
Words [appeard] on screen from time to time to explain the story.
Bebel Gilberto
Bebel Gilberto is one of Brazil's most talented singers. Her first album. 'Tanto Tempo', [was] bought by over a million people, and is among the biggest-selling Brazilian albums of all [time]. Her second album, called simply 'Bebel Gilberto', followed a few years later.Bebel comes from a successful musical family and she [remembers] growing up with music all around her.She is particularly grateful [to] her mother, who was her first singing teacher. She sang on her her on stage at nine years old [joined] her on stage.
Book review
Dava Sobel's best-seller. Longitude, tells the story of John Harrison's long [battle] with the English establishment of the 18th century to prove that his clocks were the best way to measure longitude at sea. The establishment [impersonated] in the figure of Sir Nevile Maskelyne found it demeaning that a simple, uneducated mechanic could do better than all the brilliant astronomers. Maskelyne did everything he could to frustrate Harrison. Reading this book, I was struck by how many great inventors have had little education, and in particular how little they [owe] to science. Harrison [found out] mechanics while working as an apprentice carpenter. Thomas Edison had less than three months of normal schooling and Guillermo Marconi had a limited formal education. With the exception of James Watt, none of the great pioneers of steam was even literate, [let] alone university educated.

Deserts 1
Deserts exist in every continent of the world apart from Europe. Most deserts are hot, but there are also cold deserts. In fact, the world's largest desert is Antarctica, [which] is made almost completely of ice. The Sahara desert [covers] ten per cent of Africa, and is the world's largest hot desert. However, the hottest place on earth is Death Valley in California; on 10 July 1913, the temperature there [reached] 56.7 °C – the highest temperature [ever] recorded.Some plants manage to live in deserts, but they grow very slowly. The saguaro cactus, for example, [takes] thirty years to grow one metre tall.
Deserts 2
Deserts exist in every continent of the world apart from Europe. A region can be called a desert if its
[average] annual rainfall is under 250 mm. [While] most deserts are hot, there are also cold deserts, such as Antarctica, a desert made almost completely of ice.
Deserts are often [thought] of as impossible places to live in, but they are actually home to a [wide] range of plants and animals. With so [little] rainfall, plants grow slowly and only flower on rare occasions.

Getting on Well at Work
Most people spend so much of their lives at work that it's [vital] to develop good relationships with those around them.
Humour is always a help. If you can laugh at yourself and with your colleagues, you'll be more than [halfway] there. Don't be upset by teasing; touchy people always get more than their [fair] share of people making fun of them because they are seen to be vulnerable. It's a hard world, and you have to be quite tough to [withstand] the pressures.
The best practical advice is to try hard to keep on top of the job. If you feel comfortable about this, you'll be less anxious and have more energy left to [devote] the crucial task of relating to others.
John Ruskin 1
In the nineteenth century, John Ruskin, an English writer and art critic, made great efforts to encourage people to draw, believing that this was a much-neglected skill. As well as giving lectures, he published two books on drawing, which were [widely] read. Ruskin's efforts were not I [aimed] at turning people into good artists but at making them happier. He felt that, when we are involved in the process of drawing something, we become more aware of the different parts which [make] up the whole.
It is in this way that we [come] to a deeper appreciation and [understanding] of the thing itself.

Oldest big cat fossil found in Tibet
Scientists have identified a new big cat fossil. Found in the foothills of the Himalayas, the fragments are considered to be the oldest ones ever unearthed and have been dated [between] 4.1 and 5.95 million years old. Their discovery in Tibet supports the theory [that] asserts big cats evolved in central Asia-not Africa- and spread.
“this is a very significant finding as it gives us a great insight into [what] early big cats may have looked like and where they may have lived”, reported Dr Tseng who led the 2010 expedition. Scientists used both anatomical and DNA data [to] determine that the sculls belonged to an extinct big cat, whose territory appears to overlap many of the species we know today.
The DNA evidence suggests they diverged [from] their cousins the Felinae-which includes cougars, lynxes and domestic cats- about 6/37 million years ago.

The ancient Roman City of Ostia
The Roman city of Ostia took its name from the Latin ostium, meaning river mouth. According to texts from writer and poet Ennius, from historian Titus Levy, from the writer Cicero - to mention but a [few] scholars of Roman civilization - Ostia was founded around eight thousand years ago by Ancus Martius, the fourth king of Rome. The king was desperate to assure an outlet for the military and commercial expansion of Rome, [which] at that time was still relatively small. After conquering the coastal populations standing in the way of this project, Ancus Martius [had] a citadel built near the mouth of the river. His soldiers were thus ideally located when it [came] to controlling navigation on the river Tiber. It is known that the design of the citadel [must] have been modified later, since the ruins of Ostia today contain hardly any original structures.

The hot river
Deep in the Amazon jungle there's an amazing natural phenomenon: a river so hot italmost boils. How on [Earth] is that possible? It's all down to a series of hotsprings that heat up water flowing into the river. It's the only river [of] its kind anywhere in the world. Of course, hot springs are not unique to this area – they [can] be found all over the world. They normally occur where there arevolcanoes, yet there are none anywhere near this river.
Locals have, on occasion, [been] known to swim in the river, but only after heavy rain has reduced the temperature considerably. More often than [that], theriver is used simply for making tea and cooking.
The River Amazon
Although the River Amazon is not as long as the River Nile, it carries much more water. Starting high in the Andes mountains of Peru, the river [passes] through the rainforest of Brazil. On its long journey towards the Atlantic Ocean, it increases in size as it [is] fed by thousands of smaller rivers such as the River Negro, which [joins] the Amazon near the city of Manaus.
By the time the Amazon [gets/reaches?] the sea, it is very wide. Every second, it pours 200.000 cubic metres of water into the ocean. This is the same [amount] of water that is held by a hundred Olympic-sized swimming pools.
Universal Wet Weekend
The weather across much of the British Isles remained settled last week, with a good deal of sunshine. The rest of the world, however, was coping with some [extreme] conditions. Hong Kong had 333 mm of rainfall over the weekend, not far off the [average] for the entire month of August. The southern Chinese town of Shanwei was [soaking] up the 468 mm of rain which fell in sixty hours up to midday on Sunday, [nearly] twice the usual August rainfall. Although most of Europe enjoyed sun, the high temperatures were sufficient to set off some [heavy] showers. On Tuesday morning a thunderstorm at Lyon in eastern France deposited 99 mm of rain in just six hours.

Amelia Earhart, Pioneer Woman Pilot (1897- 1927)
Amelia Earhart, the pioneering woman pilot, had [her] first flying lesson in January 1921, and convinced herself that she was destined to become a pilot. In the six months that followed, she managed to save enough money to buy a plane. Earhart named the bright yellow plane “The Canary”,and put it to good use, setting the first women's record by rising [to] an altitude of 14,000 feet,a remarkable achievement. From [then] on, Earhart's life revolved [around] flying. But strong [as] Earhart's convictions were, challenging financial obstacles lay ahead.
Anita Roddick (1942 - 2007)
In 1976 Anita Roddick opened the first Body Shop in Brighton, England. She sold natural ingredients in environment-friendly containers.
Anita had travelled to many different countries as a student She [noticed] that ordinary women inAfrica and south-east Asia did not buy expensive creams for their skin, [but] used simple local materials like cocoa fat and lemon juice.

Juggling
Juggling involves throwing a number of objects up into the air and catching them again. Probably the greatest juggler was Enrico Rastelli, who was born in Siberia in 1896.
Although Rastelli spent some of his early years in Italy, it [was] in Russia that he acquired hisjuggling skills. He was able to juggle [as] many as eight balls at the same time. However, [what] made him a genius was his perfect style, rather [than] the number of objects he couldjuggle. One of his specialties was throwing a ball into the air, and then catching [it] on a stickheld in his mouth, a practice later copied by other jugglers.

Қоңырау оғылып сабақ басталған соң балаларды ұйымдастыра отырып сабақты бастаймын.
Жаңа материалдың мазмұны:
Сендердің жұмыс орындарында компьютердің құрамдас бөліктері орналасқан: жүйелік блок, пернетақта, монитор. Жұмыс кезінде монитордың сәуле түтігі жоғары кернеуде жұмыс істейді.
І. Төмендегі әрекеттерді жасауға болмайды:
1. Кабельдердің қосылған орындарына тиюге болмайды
2. Жұмыс істеп тұрғанда экранға, монитор мен пернетақтаның сырт жағына тиюге болмайды.
3. Оқытушының рұқсатынсыз аппаратураларды ток көзіне қосуға, үзуге болмайды.
4. Кітап, дәптер және т.б. артық заттарды монитордың, пернетақтаның үстіне қоюға болмайды.
5. Су киіммен, су қолмен компьютерде жұмыс істеуге қатал тиым салынады.
ІІ. Жұмыс тәртібі:
1. Компьютер экранынан 60-70 см қашықтықта дұрыс, еңкеймей, жатып алмай отыру қажет, ал ұдайы көзілдірік тағатындар – көзілдірікпен отыру керек.
2. Дисплей алдында 20 минут жұмыстан соң міндетті түрде 5 минут дем алу керек.
ІІІ. Жұмыс кезінде:
1. Аппаратуралардың дұрыс жұмыс істеуін қадағалаңдар, егер аппаратураның дұрыс жұмыс істемей тұрғанын сезсеңдер, немесе өзгеше дыбыс пайда болса, немесе пернетақта өз бетімен өшіп қалса, дереу жұмысты тоқтатыңдар. Техниканың ақауы жөнінде оқытушыға хабарлаңдар.
2. Пернелерді қатты тақылдатпай жай басыңдар.
3. Пернетақтада жұмыс істегенде қолдарың таза болсын.
4. Аппаратураның ақауын ешқашан өз беттеріңмен жөңдеуге ұмтылмаңдар.
Кез келген дербес компьютер бірнеше құрылғылардан тұрады. Бұл құрылғылардың кейбірі өте маңызды- бұл монитор, жүйелік блок пен пернетақта, өйткені компьютер оларсыз жұмыс істей алмайды.
Жаңа сабақты бекіту: Ол үшін балалрға жаңа сабақтан бірнеше сұрақтар қоя отырып сабақты аяқтаймын.

Жаңа түсініктер:
“Ақпарат” сөзі латынның түсіндіру, баяндау, мәлімет деген ұғымдарды білдіретін informatio cөзінен шыққан.Қазіргі кезде ақпарат күнделікті тұрмысқа, ғылымның әр түрлі философия, экономика физика, математика, информатика т.б салаларында кеңінен енді. Ақпаратты біз жазбаша немесе ауызша, тіпті қимыл-қозғалыс түрінде бере аламыз. “Ақпарат ” деген сөз белгілі бір хабардың ,жаңалықтардың өткен оқиғалардың мазмұнын білдіреді. Тірі организмнің құрылысын зерттеу де бізге көп ақпарат береді.
Мысалы: баласы атасына неге ұқсайды? Иттен неге тумайды? Бұл сұрақтарға гинетика ғылымы жауап береді. Ол тұқым қуалаушылық болатының, әрбір организмнің негізгі белгілері ұрпақтан ұрпаққа ДНҚ молекулалары арқылы ақпарат беріледі. Сонымен ақпарат тірі табиғатта да, өлі табиғатта болады. Ол әрқашан сөзбен ғана жеткізілмейді, яғни ақпарат алмасудың сан алуан түрлері бар, қарым-қатынас жасау, өз бетімен ойлану, зертеу нәтижесінде пайда болады.
Ақпаратқа үзілді кесілді анықтама бере алмаймыз.Оны қаршаған дүние туралы және онда жүріп жатқан процестер туралы хабарлар мен мағлұматтар деп түсіyнуге болады.
Ақпарат материялымен және энергиямен қатар бізді қоршаған ортаның құрамды бөліктерінің бірі болып саналады.
Ақпарат түрлері
Барлық ақпараттарды төмендегідей бөлуге болады: қоғамдық саясаттық-әлеуметтік-экономикалық, ғылыми-техникалық, химия-биологиялық, физиологиялық т.б. Мұнымен қатар ақпарат өзінің сипаты бойынша:
1. статикалық (тұрақты) немесе динамикалық (айнымалы);
2. алғашқы (кірістік), туынды (аралық) немесе шығыстық;
3. басқарушы және мәлімет беруші;
4. объективті және субъективті болуы мүмкін.
Ақпарат қасиеттеріне мыналарды жатқызуға болады: толықтық, сенімділік (анықтық), бағалылық, маңыздылық (актуалдық), айқындылық, қысқалық, нанымдылық.
Тірі табиғатта ақпарат беру мен өңдеу мысалдары:
Жануарлар өздерінің жерлерін қорғап, иісті белгілер қалдырып кетеді.
Адам ақпаратты сезу, көру арқылы қабылдайды. Адам радиодан, теледидардан, газет-журналдан ақпараттарды сезім мүшелері арқылы қабылдайды. Адам қабылдайтын ақпарат таңбалы, бейнелі болып бөлінеді.
Бейнелік ақпарат деп-табиғат көріністерін, кескіндерді,дәм, иіс,сезу мүшелері арқылы қабылданған ақпараттарды айтады.
Таңбалы ақпаратқа сөйлеу, жазу түрінде алынған ақпараттар жатады. Ауызекі тіл де таңбалы ақпаратқа жатады. Себебі, әр түрлі таңбалардан тұрады, брақ олар дыбыстық таңбалар-феномендер деп аталады. Таңба түрінде қатынасуды қатынас тілі деп атайды. Табиғи қатынас тіліне: қазақ, орыс, ағылшын тілдері жатады. Жасанды тілдерге математика, физика, компьютермен қатынасу тілдері жатады. Әр тілдің өз алфабиті бар. Сандарды көрсететін алфабиттер: екілік, сегіздік, ондық, оналтылық болады.

Есептеуіш техниканың даму тарихы
Есептеуіш техника дамымай тұрып адамдар қол саусақтарын,тастарды,ағаш таяқшаларды пайдаланды
Есепшоттың пайда болуы деректерге қарағанда Қытай немесе Египетте 2000-5000 жылдар шамасында балған.
Есепшот Ресей де 16-17 ғасырларда пайда болған
17 ғасырдың аяғында шотландиялық Джон Непер логорифм түсінігін енгізді.логорифм кестесін құрды.
1761 ж.Ағылшын Д.Робертсон логорорифм сызғышын жасады. Мұндай идеяны Иссак Ньютон ұсынған.
1642 жылы француз математиці Блез Паскаль 19 жасында дүние жүзінде бірінші рет қосу машинасын жасады.
1694 ж неміс математиці Лейбниц Паскаль механикалық есептеу машинасын арифмометрі құрды.Есептеуіш техниканың XIX ғасырдан қарқындап дами бастады.
1833 жылы алғашқы есептеуіш автоматтың авторы Чарлз Бэббидж аналитикалық машинаның жобасын жасады.Он казіргі кезде компьютердің атасы деп атайды.
Дүние жүзі бойынша алғашқы 1846 жылы Бэйббидж машинасына бағдарлама жасаушы Ада Лавлейс бірінші бағдарламалаушы деп аталынған.
XIX ғасырдың соңында американдық Герман Халлериат есепші перфарциялық машинасын құрды.Холлериат 7 жыл бойы пайдаланылды. Холлериат есепші-перфорациялық машинаны жасайтын фирманың негізін қалады. 1944 американ математигі Говард айкен Горвард Марк-1 автоматты есептеуіш машинасын құрды.Бірінші электронды машиналар 1946 жылы Пенсильван университетінде ENIAC деп аталды, 1949 жылы EDSAC машинасы құрастырылды.
ЭЕМ буындары:
Бірінші буында – бірінші электрондық машиналар 1940-195 жылдар
Екінші буынға 1955 жылдан бастап, жартылай өткізгіштер, таранзисторлар пайа бола бастады.
Үшінші буынға – интегралдық негізінде құрылған ЭЕМ-дер.
Қазіргі кездегі компьютерлер төртінші буынға жатады.
Бесінші буындағы компьютерлер әлі шыққан жоқ.

Сабақтың тақырыбы: Алгоритм жəне оның атқарушылары.

Жаңа түсініктер:
Анықтама. Алгортим- берілген есептің шығару жолын реттелген амалдар тізбегі түріне келтіру.
Алгоритм құруға мысалдар: Жолдан өту ,қалааралық телефонмен байланысу, қазынаны іздеу, т. б. келтіруді ұсынуға болады. Күн тәртібі, шай қайнату, үй тапсырмасын орындау, компьютерде ойнау, футбол ойнау, шахмат ойнау, т. б. алгоритмдерді талдап мысал келтіруге болады.
Мысал: Студент болу үшін алгоритмнің мынадай қадамдарын орындау керек:
1. Орта мектепті бітіріп ,аттестат алу.
2. Ұлттық бірыңғай тест бойынша сынақ тапсыру.
3. Тест қорытындысы бойынша жиныған балл көрсетілген құжаттардың конкурсқа тапсыру .
4. Конкурстан өту.
Алгоритмнің қасиеттері:
1. Айқын,дәл өрнектелуі.
2. Үзіктілігі.
3. Нәтижелілігі.
4. Жалпыламалығы.
5. Формалды орындалуы.
1. Алгоритмнің айқын, дәл өрнектелу қасиеті. Алгоритмде келтірілген әрбір іс-әрекет мағынасы айқын, нақты анықталып, орындаушыға түсінікті болуы тиіс. Алгортмде тек көрсетілген қадамдар ғана орындалады. Есеп шығару жолы бірмәнді анықталғандықтан орындаушы алгоритм командаларын ойланбай орындауына болады.
2. Алгоритмнің үзіктілік қасиеті. Алгоритм орындау процесі бірнеше қадамнан тұрады. Алгоритм аралық нәтиже беретіндей бірнеше ықшам бөліктерге, ал олар қадамдарға бөлінеді, әр қадам өз кезегінде жеке әрекеттерге жіктеледі.Бір қадамда бір немесе бірнеше әрекет орындалады. Бұл әрекеттерсаны шектеулі болуы тиіс. Алдыңғы әрекеттің қорытындысы келесі әректтің керекті мәліметі ретінде қолданылады. Орындаушы алғашқы әрекетті аяқтамай, келесіге көше алмайды.
3. Алгоритмнің нәтижелілік қасиеті. Кез келген алгоритм белгілі бір уақыт ішінде қандай да бір нәтиже беруі тиіс. Алгоритм орындалып болғанда есептің шешуін немесе шешуі жоқ деген нәтиже беруі қажет. Әрбір алгоритмде бастапқы деректер болады, алгоритм орындалып болғанда нәтиже шығады.Мысалы, сандарды қосу алгортмі үшін қосылғыштардың мәні- бастапқы деректер, нәтижесі - қосынды болады. Кейде алгоритмнің бірнеше қадамы қайталана беріп нәтиже бермейді. Ондай алгоритм циклден шықпайтын, нәтижесіз болғандықтан қайта құру қажет .
4.Алгоритмнің жалпыламалық немесе ортақтық қасиеті.
Белгілі бір алгоритм жеке есепті ғана емес, оған ұқсас басқа да есептер ді шешуге мүмкіндік беруі тиіс. Берілген мәліметтерге қатысты нәтиже ғана өзгеше болады. Мысалы, квадрат теңдеуді шешу алгоритмі кез келген a,b,cмәндері үшін құрылады. Ал берілген бұрыштың синусын анықтау алгоритмі кез келген алғашқы бұрыш аргументі арқылы оның (sin) нақты мәнін есептеуге мүмкіндік береді, т. с. с.
5.Алгоритмнің формалды орындалуы.
Орындаушы алгоритм мағынасын,есептің қойылуын түсінбегенмен, әр команданы (әрекетті) орындай отырып, дұрыс нәтиже алады. Алгоритм қадамдарында көрсетілген әрекеттерді дұрыс орындау үшін, әрбір әрекет орындаушыға түсінікті болуы қажет. Мысалы, х санын квадратта дегенді төменгі сынып оқушылары түсінбейді, ал оны х санын х санына көбейт деп айтса, онда бұл айтылғанды олар орындай алады. Демек, алгоритм белгілі бір орындаушыға (адамға, адамдардың білім деңгейіне, машинаға т. б.) арналып құрылады.
Орындаушы алгоритм командаларын орындай отырып, өзі атқарып отырған істің мән – жайына көңіл аудармай - ақ белгілі бір нәтиже ала алады, яғни орындаушы формалды әрекет етеді. Алгоритмнің бұл маңызды ерекшелігін оның формалды орындалуы деп аталады. Бұл қасиет алгоритмнің орындалуын компьютерге жүктеуге мүмкіндік береді.
