Exercise 1

Fill in each gap in the text with the number of the appropriate sentence from the list below. (a) is done for you):

1. It is possible to fight this virus.
2. To illustrate, several new viruses have been found.
3. I think most people who aren’t familiar (не знакомы) with computers would be astonished to be told that any computer program could do even those two things.
4. First, just what is a computer virus?
5. First it destroys all data.
6. It has the ability to clone itself, so that it can multiply (увеличиваться), constantly searching for new host environments.

HOW DO COMPUTER VIRUSES WORK?

Speaking about the analogy between the human mind and the computer, let us look at the behaviours of computer viruses for analogies to problems with the mind, (a) 4

John McAfee, one of the outstanding experts on computer viruses, defines a virus as: a computer program created to infect (заражать) other programs with copies of itself, (b)_______. That may be all it does -

a single mission to multiply and spread from one system to another. Or the virus program may be written to damage other programs, change data, and then perhaps self-destruct, so that defences (защита) cannot be developed against it.

Thus computer viruses are much like biological viruses: a halfway point between life and non-life. They have the minimum requirement of all known living creatures: the ability to multiply. They have enough intelligence to recognise their environment as friendly or hostile, and to take corresponding action. (c)_______. If they knew the full extent of the astonishing ability displayed by computer viruses, I think that astonishment might change into fear, fear not only of computer viruses, but of the future of computers.

Computer viruses, created for a variety of reasons, can have many different effects, depending on the creator’s purpose, (d)______.

• ‘Gingrich’ fills word processing files with law

terminology often found in contracts, (e)________. To do this users should type their names at the bottom of infected files, thereby signing them, as if signing a contract.

• ‘Clipper’ mixes all the data on a hard drive, making it useless.
• ‘Lecture’ formats the hard drive, (f)____. Then it blames  the user for not catching it.
• ‘Clinton’ is designed to infect programs, but it destroys itself when it cannot decide which program to infect.

A High quality service        D The Japanese army

B Doing their best        E Way of thinking

C Artistic conductor        F Waving could be a job

When a person first arrives in Japan there are many things of course that seem strange and different. Apart from the language difference, I think the most striking (поразительные) difference is the attitude of workers. One of the most common expressions in Japan is “Gambatte kudasai”. It means, “Give it your best effort” (усилие, попытка). It is said just about any time you are about to start doing something. It is amazing but Japanese people really take it to heart. They do give it their best effort in contrast to the US where it is definitely not cool to act that way. But in Japan it is considered cool, and even the cool people, the hippies and the anti-establishment crowd give it their best effort.

(2)        

Walk into any store and you will be greeted with a “Welcome to our store”. If there are two people working, they will both greet you. If a third guy walks out of the back room as you walk towards the back of the store, he will greet you too. If someone has to go to the storeroom to get something, they will run. When you arrive, they will make every effort to serve you. That includes a big smile that I would reserve only for a long-lost friend.

(3)        

In my hometown there was this one old man who everyone thought was crazy because he just stood outside his house all day and waved to cars as they went by. I think most towns have a guy like this. They look like they are having a great time. They have found real peace. They are loony (сумасшедшие). Many people recognise the guy as they drive by and honk their horns (трубят в рога) because the guy is crazy and it’s fun to humour him. But the guy interprets it as a friendly sign and waves back pleased. In his mind he is doing his work. The problem with these guys is that they were born in the wrong country. They could come to Japan and find work doing what they really like to do. Waving.

(4)        

There is an army of people who do just that. You see them wherever (где бы то ни было) there is a construction site and the sidewalk (тротуар) is blocked. Usually there is one at either end. Even in the heat (летняя жара) of summer they are in full uniform, complete with hats or helmets and plastic light-reflecting vests. They have flashlights (мигающий свет)  that have a kind of strobe flasher at one end. The most amazing thing again is that they give you the warmest and most gracious escort (сопровождене). Is there any lower, less skilled job on Earth than waving people around a blocked sidewalk?

Yet these people are giving it 200%. What is going on in their minds that allows them to do this?

(5)        

I once observed a railway ticket collector on the train. I watched him with amazement. As he stamped (штамповал) the people’s tickets and collected their money, he looked as if he was having the time of his life. My Japanese friend told me what he was saying. “Hello sir. I really am sorry to have to wake you but it’s time to collect your ticket. I feel sure you will be able to fall asleep again after I’ve collected the money.” And of course as he left the car he gave a big bow.

If you do ever come to Japan, remember to be the very best tourist that you can possibly be. See all that you can. Eat every food. Drink every beverage (= drink). Go to every temple (= church) and see every festival. Remember, “Gambatte”.
