Hai,

 socket-------this is a point of connecting server and client machine.for example it's like an electric plug.

 server socket-----this is a end point where, it'll accept all new incoming connection.handles all the traffic and decides what to do nd wha not to do,that can be used to read from (or) write to depending on the request given.
