A Bus Ride
Charles: Now come along, James. I’m going to take you for a bus-ride through London. Cheap and instructive.
James: Good idea.
Ch: We’ll go on top. You see more. In the good old days the top of the bus was open. Still, we can see a good deal.
Conductor: Fares, please.
Ch: What’s the fair to Victoria Station?
Conductor: Four pence, please.
Ch: Now we’re going over London Bridge. Look, James, there’s a ‘Pool’. Fascinating place, with all the shipping.
J: Yes, I remember that.
Ch: And there’s the Monument. It was erected…
J: In memory of the Great Fire, which started in Fish Street in 17th century.
Ch: You know too much. Look, there’s the Bank… Passing along Cannon Street, we reach St. Paul’s…
J: Erected by sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire. That’s the Temple, isn’t it?
Ch: Yes, where the lawyers live. Now the bus makes a spurt and we arrive at Trafalgar Square-the National Gallery-finest collection of pictures in Europe.
J: Want to get out?
Ch: No, thank you. Over there is the Haymarket, leading to the theater land and Shaftsbury Avenue, Piccadilly Circus and the shopping district.
J: My turn. On the left, the House of Parliament, containing the House of Lords and the House of Commons…
Ch: And Westminster Abbey, begun by Edward the Confessor. When?
J: I’ve no idea.
Ch: I do like a bus-ride with the intelligent guide! Victoria Street.
J: Nothing much to say here.
Ch: Look at all the people leaving the continent. Biggest station.
J: You’re wrong here. Leipzig is bigger.

1. Read and translate the text into Ukrainian:
Computer Trespassing
Breaking into a computer system (using it when you don’t have the permission) is a crime. It s called computer trespassing.
People break into computer systems for many reasons. They might do it to find our private records, to change or destroy information, to steal money or goods, or simply to show they know how to do it.
Computer trespassing is a serious problem. Important information ranging from medical records to top secret military information is often stored in computer systems. If someone changes, destroys, or steals the information, he or she might cause a serious damage. For example, trespasser in a hospital computer system might endanger a patient’s health by changing his or her medical records. In a case of a government computer system, a computer trespasser might threaten national security by stealing military information. A trespasser in a bank’s computer system might steal millions of dollars.
How can we prevent computer trespassing? One way to prevent information stored in computer systems is to use passwords or number codes. The words or codes are programmed into the computer system. The system will admit only those people who enter the correct code. An alarm alerts a security guard if someone enters an incorrect code more than once.
The computer systems use cryptography (secret writing) to protect information. Such systems store information in the computer in coded or scrambled form. F you don’t know how to scramble the information, it is meaningless.
Federal and state laws also protect information stored in computer systems. One federal law prohibits people from using a computer system without permission. It also prohibits the use of a computer system: (1) to steal money or goods worth 5000$ or more; (2) to use, change, destroy, or reveal restricted information in government files; (3) to obtain financial information and credit records that are protected by other federal laws.
