A "paradigm" is a general model or pattern that is followed.

All the languages you mentioned, php, C, and VB fall under the "imperative paradigm". That is, they all have a simple start to finish structure, with very little deviation in the program flow.

Have a read of this thread.

Jus to make it more clearer,

A "paradigm" is a general approach/method to programming or the solution to a problem using a programming language.
Programming languages that share common characteristics are put together into the same paradigm.

And u get the many different paradigms(Imparative programming...etc)

consisting of many different programming languages(Fortran,ada,c,pascal,modular2,basic.....etc)

ummm....

i think i jus repeated what sunny said. (O_O)'

Arh, whats the point!
