The bottom line is this:

We need a simple site, which will have several pages and the same number of buttons for moving between these pages.

The problem is that I know html superficially and have already forgotten almost everything, but rube and php are a dark forest for me. Therefore, in addition to the task of creating a website, the task of finding out how it is done and with what is added.
Tell me where to start, what language(s) to learn, is it worth taking books and reading a lot of theory or is it enough to learn only some specific things? and if you think it's better to pick up books and learn all the basics of the language, then what kind of books do you think are good for a beginner?

In your case, I would take a ready-made CMS. Joomla or Drupal

There is an excellent book by Berdyshev! www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/4459935/
Discussion of quotes from the book here: habrahabr.ru/blogs/design/123382/
But seriously, download a primitive video tutorial from any torrent tracker on site layout. Make up the first page, then it will go like clockwork. And it will not be a problem to put on cms.
If you have any questions during the practice - write in a personal prompt.

Here it is worth clarifying what the site is for and what will be the requirements for it.
For very easy and quick purposes, you can also use online constructors, like ucoz.ru.

If time is running out, I recommend using simple CMS (Content Management Systems).
Here, for example: CMS Made Simple

Why the author of CMS?

We need a simple site that will have several pages and the same number of buttons for moving between these pages.

Any WYSIWYG editor will do. The simplest one is Kompozer.

If it will be a blog, or a news feed, then you're best off here www.blogger.com/
Here and instant indexing, and a maximum of tools to customize the look of your site.

For a static site, any WYSIWYG (or close to it) editor is enough, including various SaaS such as people, yukoz or google sites.

The pages themselves can even be “created” in the open office.
For example, for a white page with one line "Test", the following html code is generated:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
  <META HTTP-EQUIV="CONTENT-TYPE"
              CONTENT="text/html; charset=windows-1251">
  <TITLE>Тест</TITLE>
  <META NAME="GENERATOR" CONTENT="OpenOffice.org 3.2  (Win32)">
  <META NAME="AUTHOR" CONTENT="kindman">
  <META NAME="CREATED" CONTENT="20110707;8575800">
  <META NAME="CHANGEDBY" CONTENT="q q">
  <META NAME="CHANGED" CONTENT="20110707;8583900">
  <STYLE TYPE="text/css">
  <!--
    @page { size: 21cm 29.7cm; margin: 2cm }
    P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm }
  -->
  </STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY LANG="ru-RU" LINK="#000080" VLINK="#800000" DIR="LTR">
<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm">Тест</P>
</BODY>
</HTML>

I advise exactly the open office (and not the Word), because the resulting code is extremely transparent, and without unnecessary "garbage".
Although the original page layout can be made up in the Word itself, it is still better to convert to html by uploading the Word dock to the Writer open office and saving it as:
index.html in the format “HTML Document (OpenOffice.org Writer) (. html)".
Just in case, I’ll clarify: this is advice for novice webmasters who know how to work in Word (and can’t do anything else), although some professionals may take note, especially the ability to automatically create documents through the UNO service (Universal Network Objects - Universal Network Objects).

Google CMS on files or cms without database. You stumble on the site with a mouse in a couple of hours. If you don’t find it, write to the habramail, I’ll share it from the bookmarks when I’m at home.

Try to use concrete 5 very simple, free and no knowledge of jap and layout is needed, a lot of ready-made templates, the content changes on click on it, without climbing through the wilds of the admin panel

It is very important for a beginner, such as you, to choose something simple, understandable and free. That is why only WordPress is suitable for you.
You do not need to learn programming languages , just make a website on this engine in a couple of clicks . How to quickly turn everything, you can read the article How to make a website on WordPress yourself .
