г) Business and Industry

1. Multimedia is any computer application that integrates texts,

graphics, animation, video, audio and other methods of

communication. Multimedia is different from television, books

or cassettes because it lets you interact with the application. You

can click on a word to make a picture appear, or click on a picture

to start a video.

2. Multimedia became more popular after the mid 1990s when

the price of hardware began to fall. Then people started using it

in industry, business, education, entertainment and for other

purposes. Today, we can find multimedia at home, in school, at

work, in public places, such as libraries, and on the Internet.

3. In business, advertisers use virtual reality in multimedia applica

tions to advertise their products in three dimensions (3 D). Us

ing multimedia for graphs and tables is now the best way for

managers to present company results. In industry, pilots learn

to fly using multimedia simulations of real situations, and scien

tists simulate experiments with dangerous chemicals in safety.

Publishers are also producing interactive magazines, called

e zines, and e books online.

4. In education, students study interactive CD ROMs at their own

speed and explore topics creatively by clicking on related links.

Teenagers have played computer games for years, but many

multimedia applications combine education and entertainment

and they let them visit virtual worlds or change the ending of

films.
