Lesson 11 by Paolo Rossetti Level : Intermediate Topic : Instructions Grammar: Conditional Audio Test ************************ Vocabulary Hello. My name is Joe and I'm going to give you a few simple lessons on how to make frames for your web documents. The intelligent use of frames can give your pages a cleaner look and make them easier to navigate. Dividing a page into frames is actually quite simple. The basic concept goes like this: Each frame is a regular, complete html document. If you wanted to divide your page into 2 side by side frames, then you would put one complete html document in the left frame and another complete html document in the right frame. In addition you need to write a third html document... ******************** EXERCISE 11.1 - Vocabulary Please match the words on the left with the meanings on the right. 1. a frame a. separate something into smaller pieces 2. a document b. abstract idea; way of thinking about something 3. to be intelligent c. give direction; move to a certain destination 4. a look d. outside border of an object, maybe a photo or painting 5. to navigate e. in reality; in fact; really 6. to divide f. whole; finished; in one entire piece 7. actually g. style; appearance 8. to be regular h. easy; very simple 9. to be basic i. official paper, book, computer file that contains information, etc. 10. to be complete j. normal; not special; common 11. a concept k. also 12. in addition l. smart; with a high IQ *********************** EXERCISE 11.2 - Grammar "If you wanted to divide your page into 2 side by side frames, then you would put one complete html document in the left frame..."
