Part4 Reading
Task1
Start your career as a computer engineer at Kempko! Our program teaches everything you need to know about computer engineering. This growing field has many career opportunities.
Begin with fundamental courses in engineering and computer science. Gain a strong understanding of mathematical analysis and theory.
Learn to develop computer software. Design your own computer programs. Then other students will test them for functionality and usability.
Also learn to investigate problems with hardware, evaluate causes and implement appropriate solutions. These skills will make you invaluable to potential employers.
1 What does the program begin with?
2 What does the program teach on hardware?
Task2
A monitor is a computer component that shows images. Displays appear on monitor screens.
Most of today’s monitors have flat-panel displays. They usually produce images using LCDs. Older monitors used CRTs, which made them bulky. As monitors became thinner, image resolution also improved. Current HD displays have far better resolution than standard ones. Active matrices give monitors this capability.
Displays are made up of many tiny pixels. A bitmap organizes many pixels into a single image. To display images, computers switch between bitmaps. Frame buffers store bitmaps before displaying them on the monitor.
1 What is a monitor?
2 How does the monitor work?
Task3
The most common cause of overheating is a malfunctioning fan. Most computers have a heat sink. This has its own fan. Other computers have a separate fan in the case.
To troubleshoot overheating, first remove the computer’s cover. Then check whether the fan is functioning.
• If the fan is not functioning, check the power supply. Some fans attach to the motherboard. Others connect directly to the PSU. Reconnect it to the proper port if it is disconnected.
• If the fan is functioning, it may be inadequate. Additional hardware installations produce extra heat. Check bays for heat from added processors or CD/DVD drives. In this situation, you may need to purchase a stronger fan.
1 What’s the common cause of overheating?
2 What should we do if the fan is functioning?
