LESSON TWO I. Study text A. Try to understand all details. Use a dictionary if necessary: Text A The Story of Radio 1. Without understanding the inquiries of pure science1, we cannot follow the story of radio. It begins perhaps with Joseph Henry, an American physicist, who discovered in 1842 that electrical discharges were oscillating. A gigantic step forward was taken by James Maxwell, a Scottish physicist and one of the great mathematical geniuses of the 19-th century. By purely mathematical reasoning2, Maxwell showed that all electrical and magnetic phenomena could be reduced to stresses and motions in a medium, which he called the ether. Today we know that this "electrical medium" does not exist in reality3. Yet the concept of an ether helped greatly, and allowed Maxwell to put forward his theory that the velocity of electric waves in air should be equal to that of the velocity of light waves, both being the same kind of waves4, merely differing in wave length. 2. In 1878, David Hughes, an American physicist, made another important discovery in the pre-history of radio and its essential components. He found that a loose contact in a circuit containing a battery and a telephone receiver (invented by Bell in 1876) would give rise to sounds in the receiver, which corresponded to those that had impinged upon the diaphragm of the mouthpiece. 3. In 1883, George Fitzgerald, an Irish physicist, suggested a method by which electromagnetic waves might be produced by the discharge of a condenser. Next we must turn to Heinrich Hertz, the famous German physicist, who was the first to create, detect and measure electromagnetic waves, and thereby experimentally confirmed Maxwell"s theory of "ether" waves. In his experiments he showed that these waves were capable of reflection, refraction, polarization, diffraction and interference. 4. A.S.Popov (1859-1906) was in 1895 a lecturer in physics. He set up a receiver in 1895, and read a paper about it at the Meeting of the Russian Physico-Chemical Society on April 25 (May 7, New Style) 1895. He demonstrated the world"s first radio receiver, which he called "an apparatus for the detection and registration of electric oscillations". By means of this equipment, Popov could1 register electrical disturbances, including atmospheric ones. In March 1896 he gave a further demonstration before the same society. At that meeting the words "Heinrich Hertz" were transmitted by wireless telegraphy in Morse code and similarly received before a distinguished scientific audience5. Popov became the inventor of the radio, May 7 being celebrated each yearas "Radio Day" in many countries. 5. Marconi invented a system of highly successful wireless telegraphy, and inspired and supervised its application. 6. Such is the story of the many inventors of wireless telegraphy, working with each other"s equipment, adding new ideas and new improvements to them. It was a patient, persistent inquiry into natural laws and it was animated by the love of knowledge6. 7. During the first years of its development, radio communication was called "wireless telegraphy and telephone". This name was too long for convenience and was later changed to "radio" which comes from the well-known Latin word "radius" – a straight line drawn from the centre of a circle to a point on its circumference. Wireless transmission was named radio transmission, or simply "radio". 8. The term "radio" now means the radiation of waves by transmitting stations, their propagation through space, and reception by receiving stations. The radio technique has become closely associated with many other branches of science and engineering and it is now difficult to limit the word "radio" to any simple definition. Notes 1. without understanding the inquiries of pure science – на зная истоков чистой науки 2. by purely mathematical reasoning – при помощи чисто математических рассуждений 3. does not exist in reality – на самом деле не существует 4. both being the same kind of waves – причем обе являются волнами одного типа 5. distinguished audience – авторитетная аудитория 6. to be animated by the love of knowledge – быть движимым любовью к знаниям II.

II. Skim through text В and say in Russian or in English what it is about. You are given 3 minutes. Text В Nowadays local radio stations broadcast their own programmes in addition to relaying central radio broadcast programmes. Dozens of thousands1 of various special-purpose radio stations are in operation in aeroplanes, trains, ships, etc. There are also thousands of radio amateurs who use short-wave radio sets for long-distance contacts, "fox-hunters" (a special kind of sport), amateur designers constructing radio-controlled models of aeroplanes and ships as well as many other types of different purpose radio equipment. In the late 1930s and especially after World War II other branches of radio engineering developed rapidly: television, remote control of different equipment by means of radio (telecontrol), radio-location (radar), radio navigation, etc. The methods of radio engineering are now used in various fields of science and technology, e.g. in physics, chemistry, geology, medicine, astronomy, mathematics, etc. At present there is no branch of science where use is not made of2 some kind of radio equipment. Distant areas of the Universe are studied with the help of radio. Spacecrafts are guided by radio. Radio devices have made it possible the information to be obtained3 about the mysterious and amazing phenomena taking place in far-away Galaxies as well as inside atomic nuclei. Notes 1) dozens of thousands – десятки тысяч 2) use is not made of – не используется 3) have made it possible the information to be obtained – дали возможность получить информацию III.

II. Read text C carefully. While reading look for the answers to the following questions: 1. Do electromagnetic waves know man-made frontiers? 2. What was the reason for calling the preliminary international radio conference? 3. What principles became the basis for the regulation of radio communication? 4. What principles were accepted at the First International Radiotelegraph Conference? Text С The First International Radiotelegraph Conference 1. The very nature of radio1 made it international, right from its beginning. Unlike the cables of the telephone or the wires of the telegraph, electromagnetic waves know no man-made frontiers2; once emitted from their antenna, only their strength decides to what distance they travel. Throughout the history of radio it has always been the aim to choose and assign appropriate frequencies by international agreement, to lay down the rules3 for the operation of radio stations and to approve standards for apparatus and their operators. 2. Preliminary International Conference on Radio took place in Berlin as early as 19034. A.S.Popov was one of the chief Russian delegates. Nine countries met to undertake preliminary studies for the international regulation of radio. Part of the reason, if not the major one5, for calling this conference was to stop the attempt of Marconi to monopolize radio. In order to establish his monopoly, he had given instructions to his operators only to exchange wireless signals with other stations also manned by Marconi operators, and it was this action6 by a private company which stirred up most opposition. 3. In the Final Protocol of the Preliminary Berlin Conference it was laid down that "Coast stations should receive and transmit telegrams originating from or destined for ships at sea without distinction as to the system of radio used by latter". In spite of7 the very elementary state of radio in 1903, this principle and the others of the Final Protocol became the basis for the regulation of radio communication. 4. 29 nations came to the First International Radiotelegraph Conference in Berlin, 1906. It accepted the Radio Convention, Radio Regulations and the fundamental structure for all subsequent conferences. Notes 1) the very nature of radio – сама природа радио 2) man-made frontiers – искусственные преграды 3) to lay down the rules – установить правила 4) as early as 1903 – еще в 1903 году 5) part of the reason, if not the major one – одна из причин, если не самая главная 6) it was this action ... which – именно этот поступок 7) in spite of – несмотря на III. Say what made radio international. IV. Explain why electromagnetic waves have no man-made frontiers. V. Find the information about the necessity of the international agreement on appropriate wave frequencies. Say what other points of such an agreement are mentioned in this part of the text. VI.

LESSON TWO I. Read the title of the following text. Can you guess what the text might be about? II. Study text A. Try to understand all details. Use a dictionary if necessary: Text A Seven Rays, One Family 1. "Isn"t it a small world."1 You have probably heard this exclamation many times. People often say it when they find that acquaintances they had met at different times and places, and whom they never connected with each other, turn out to be related to each other. Scientists often have a similar experience with occurrences in nature . Things or events that at first seem to have nothing to do with3 each other turn out to be related after all. We shall repeat this experience with seven kinds of rays. We find them in different places, and use them in different ways, but they are close relatives. They are members of one family, the family of electromagnetic waves. 2. The kind of ray that mankind has known for the longest time is light. It helps us see the objects that surround us, when the objects reflect the light into our eyes. Because our eyes can detect light, we call it a visible ray. The other rays are invisible. 3. We find three types of invisible rays in use in our homes. When we listen to a radio programme, we are using the rays that are called radio waves. When we cook a meal on an electric cooker, we are using hurried rays, sometimes referred to as heat rays. When we sit under a suntan lamp, we are using ultraviolet rays. We meet the other three types of rays outside the home. Inside the hospital we shall find X-rays, produced by X-rays machines, and used for taking pictures of the insides of our bodies. At airports everywhere we shall find microwaves used with radar equipment to detect planes in the air, or guide them in to land. Also in hospitals we find gamma rays used as invisible bullets to kill cancer cells. 4. These seven types of rays resemble each other in that they are all electromagnetic waves. What makes them different from each other is their frequency or their wavelength. The distance that the wave moves during the time it takes for one complete cycle of vibration is called the wavelength of the wave. The frequency is the number of cycles in a second. Notice that radio waves are the longest of the electromagnetic waves and have the lowest frequency. Notes 1. Isn"t it a small world – Мир тесен. 2. occurrences in nature – явления в природе 3. things or events that at first seem to have nothing to do with ... – предметы или события, которые, как кажется на первый взгляд, ничего не имеют общего... III. Say whether the following statements are true or false: 1. These seven types of rays do not differ from each other. 2. Seven kinds of rays are close relatives. 3. We find three types of invisible rays in use in our homes. 4. We meet three types of rays outside the home. 5. These seven types of rays differ from each other in their frequency. 6. The frequency is the number of cycles in a second. 7. Radio waves have the highest frequency. IV. Find the information explaining why we call light a visible ray.

Look through the list of the English words and their Russian equivalents for better understanding text B: subtle – тонкий, неуловимый; to occur – происходить; to convert – преобразовывать; receptive – восприимчивый; beyond – за пределами; wavelength – длина волны; to range – колебаться в пределах; frequency – частота; to approach – приближаться; beam – пучок; луч; to fan out – расходиться, распространяться. II. Read text В. Find out the main information of the text. Text В Radio Waves During the last few decades, a subtle change has occurred which none of our senses1 can register. Radio waves, bearing messages in many tongues2, flow ceaselessly around us, through us and above us. We can only hear and see them if we convert them to other waves to which our ears and eyes are receptive. Radio waves are the longest members of the family of electromagnetic waves. In the spectrum, in which the waves are arranged in order of increasing wavelength3, they lie beyond the infrared waves. Their wavelengths range from about three hundredths of a centimetre to about 300 kilometers. Radio broadcasts today are made by two different methods known as AM (amplitude modulation) and FM (frequency modulation). The frequencies of the waves used are expressed in kilocycles or megacycles. The vibrating current is fed into an antenna from which the radio waves are broadcast into space. Microwaves are the smallest radio waves. In the spectrum of electromagnetic waves they lie between infrared rays and the long radio waves. The shortest microwaves have a wavelength of about three hundredths of a centimetre and a frequency of one million megacycles. The longest microwaves have a wavelength of about three metres and a frequency of one hundred megacycles. The first microwaves made by man were the two-foot waves produced by Heinrich Hertz. It is interesting that they were the last to be put to a practical use. Long waves were easier to produce and send out over long distances. Scientists had to return to the use of short waves in order to solve a problem4 that came up during World War II. The problem was "How can you detect an approaching enemy plane while it is still far away? " A possible answer to the problem was to send a beam of radio waves. Long radio waves could not be used for this purpose because they fan out too quickly from the broadcasting antenna. Very short waves were necessary to make the radar system work. So new transmitters and receivers were designed to make and use microwaves. NOTES 1) none of our senses – ни одно из наших чувств 2) bearing messages in many tongues – несущие сообщения на многих языках 3) in order of increasing wavelength – в порядке увеличения длины волны 4) in order to solve a problem – чтобы решить проблему III.

Look through the list of the English words and their Russian equivalents: activity – деятельность; to support – поддерживать; to administer – управлять; responsible – ответственный; announcement – сообщение; to intend – намереваться; to remain – оставаться. II. Before you read the text study the questions. Then read the text to yourself to find out which questions the author answers: 1. What is the name of the organization responsible for administering radio sport in Great Britain? 2. What word is the key one in radio sport? 3. Is radio sport supported by the government? 5. Do "foxes" identify themselves every five minutes? 6. Is the competitive spirit typical of Soviet electronics? Text С Radio Sport: a Serious Business 1. In Russian vocabulary the electronics enthusiasts are known as "radio sportsmen". Radio sport is a highly organized, serious activity supported and administered by the government. The organization responsible for administering radio sport is called the Radio Sports Federation. In radio sport, the key word is competition. The highest award, one held by a relatively few sportsmen, is "Master of Radio Sport". One particularly interesting form of radio competition is called "Fox Hunting". This is a contest in which teams of "hunters" (young people carrying portable direction finders) race against time2 to find "foxes" (hidden transmitters). The rules call for3 the three "foxes" to take up positions one or two miles apart in a large wooded area. At the starting signal, the "foxes" begin identifying themselves by voice announcements4 at one-minute intervals, each "fox" therefore being on the air5 once every five minutes. The announcements, which are very brief, are made on amateur bands6 by means of low-powered transmitters, usually homemade. The winning "hunter" is the one who first locates all three "foxes" in sequence7. The kind of competitive spirit8 that characterizes radio sport is typical of electronics in general. Whether it be the technological state of the art, TV via communication satellite, or techniques for electronic training, the our people are fully aware of the importance9 of communications-electronics in the space age, and they intend to remain competitive in every possible way. Notes l) a portable direction finder – переносный радиопеленгатор 2) race against time – бегут на время 3) fthe rules call for – правила требуют 4) identify themselves by voice announcements – дают знать о себе голосом 5) on the air – в эфире 6) amateur band – радиолюбительский диапазон частот 7) in sequence – последовательно, одну за другой 8) competitive spirit – дух соревнования 9) are fully aware of the importance – вполне понимают значение III. Say whether the following statements are true or false: 1. In radio sport the key word is competition. 2. One particularly interesting form of radio competition is called "Fox Hunting". 3. Each "fox" is on the air once every five minutes. 4. The announcements, which are very long, are made on amateur bands. 5.

LESSON TWO I. Before reading the text answer the following questions: I. What is the English for "проигрывать"? 2. Do you know that the original record-player was called a phonograph? 3. Who invented the phonograph? 4. Do you know the history of the invention of the first phonograph? II. Find some information about a modern record-player in the text: Text A The Record-player. How Does It Work? 1. You may know a lot about music: you may have a good knowledge of modern records: but how much do you know about the machine that plays your records? How, for example, does it work? It will help you to understand how record-players work, if you go back to the person who invented the first phonograph, Thomas Edison. 2. He had been experimenting on ways of sending Morse Code1 signal more quickly by telegraph: in order to do this, he built a machine which cut out small marks, representing the Morse symbols, into a strip of paper. By running the paper2 through the transmitting machine at a very fast speed, he could send messages much more quickly than by the manual method. He noticed that the machine was making a noise which sounded like human voices3 in conversation. Edison was a true scientist: if something unusual happened he wanted to find out why: so he decided to fit a diaphragm to the machine, to see what this would do. After a few experiments, Edison devised a machine which consisted of two diaphragms on either side4 of a drum of tinfoil. Each diaphragm was attached to a needle, which rested on the foil. Edison turned the drum by hand and shouted a poem into one of the diaphragms – the recording unit – which then cut a pattern into the tinfoil. This is because the diaphragm vibrations moved the needle in certain directions, which were recorded on the foil. 4. Edison then reversed the process so that the reproducing needle was at the start of the newly-cut needle path5 and started winding the drum again. He then heard his own voice repeating the poem: the needle, following the path in the foil, vibrated its diaphragm which then reproduced the sounds that the other diaphragm had recorded. 5. This all happened in 1877, more or less by accident. In a hundred years of development and experimentation, the phonograph has developed into what we know now as the record-player. The principle is still the same, however, sound waves hitting a microphone (diaphragm) are then converted onto a record by mechanical or electronic means. The sound is then stored, it is released as vibration when the needle follows the path that has been cut, and reproduces the original message. Stereo sound is a little more complicated. Two microphones, each attached to its own recording systems, record the sound that is produced from the loudspeakers. It appears very similar to the original sound. Nowadays, by "mixing" the sound, and by changing it from one channel to the other, you can make the sound travel from one loudspeaker to the next one. Notes 1. Morse Code – алфавит Морзе 2. by running the paper – посредством пропускания бумаги 3. like human voices – подобно человеческим голосам 4. on either side – с обеих сторон 5. the newly-cut needle path – только что прорезанная дорожка III. Say whether the following statements are true or false: 1. Edison had been experimenting on ways of sending Morse Code signals more quickly. 2. The machine was making a noise which sounded like human voices in conversation. 3. Edison turned the drum by hand but couldn"t shout a poem into the diaphragm. 4. The diaphragm vibrations moved the needle in certain directions. 5. The work of the modern record-player is based on other principles. 6. One can make the sound travel from one loudspeaker to the next one. IV. Look through paragraph I and say in what connection the name of Edison is mentioned in it. V. Read paragraph 2 attentively and retell its contents to your partner. You may use the following plan: 1. Edison made experiments on the ways of sending Morse Code signals (how?) 2. He made a special machine (what was this machine?) for his experiments. 3. While experimenting on his machine at a very fast speed he noticed some strange noise (what was the noise like?). 4. Edison wanted to find out why the machine was making a noise and ... (what did he decide to do?) VI. In paragraph 3 find the English equivalents for: замечать, создавать шум, звучать, беседа, истинный, голос, выяснять что-то, происходить, решать, человеческий, необычный, поэтому. VII. Translate paragraph 4. VIII. Describe the construction of the phonograph using the words: phonograph to be drum of tinfoil to consist of 2 diaphragms to be attached to 2 needles to rest on foil. IX. Write out of paragraph 6 the words which can be used for describing how modern record-players work. X. Tell the story of the record-player and the principle of its work. LESSON THREE I. Look through the list of the English words and their Russian equivalents for text B: disappointing – вызывающий разочарование; properly – правильно; как следует; inwards – внутрь; lead – провод; amplifier – усилитель; feedback – обратная связь; record-deck – электропроигрыватель; stylus – (воспроизводящая) игла; socket – гнездо, розетка. П. Read the following text and entitle it. Compare your title with the title given by the author. Text В Have you or your family got a stereo system? If you have, are you sure that you"re getting the best from it? Expensive equipment can sound very disappointing if it isn"t set up properly. Here are some points to check. The stereo area is the part of the room in which the listener can hear exactly the right sound. Put the two loudspeakers about two metres apart (more in a very large room, less in a small one). Turn them slightly inwards. Now imagine a line from the centre of each speaker. Where the lines meet is the stereo area and the best place to sit and listen. There are two important points to remember when you"re deciding where to put the rest of the system. First the lead between the amplifier and the tape or record deck should be as short as possible1. A long lead will give poor sound. The leads between the amplifier and the speakers can be as long as you like. Secondly watch out for feedback. This is the sound you hear when vibrations from the music (or even footsteps) affect the record deck. Feedback can spoil the sound of the record or make the stylus jump. The answer is to make sure2 the record deck is on a wall shelf or a heavy piece of furniture. If the sound of your stereo is still disappointing, perhaps you"ve mixed up the leads. If you"ve accidentally put a left-hand lead into a right-hand socket, you won"t get a stereo sound. The quickest way to test your stereo system for this and other problems is to buy a test record, which will have all kinds of sound tests on it. Notes 1. as short as possible – по возможности короче 2. to make sure – убедиться III. Name the author"s recommendations on making your stereo system sound properly. LESSON FOUR I. Look through the list of the English words and their Russian equivalents: to coat – покрывать; digital – цифровой; to claim – утверждать; distortion – искажение; background hiss – фоновый шум (шипение); studio master – студийный диск; tough – прочный; careful handling – бережное обращение; to damage – наносить ущерб, повреждать; to wear out (wore, worn) – изнашиваться; conventional – обычный; hi-fi system – high fidelity system – система с высокой точностью воспроизведения. II. Scan text С and say where compact disks are used. Text С Compact Disks 1. You have not only heard about Compact Disks (CD), you’ve been using them here and there in your everyday life. The invention of Sony has very quickly become popular all over the world.1. A CD consists of a piece of aluminium coated with transparent plastic, 12 cms across, for producing sound. It"s similar2 to an ordinary record, except that it"s "read" by a laser beam, and the information recorded on the aluminium is digital. 2. The makers claim that a CD can reproduce the original sound perfectly, without any distortion or background hiss. As the system is computerized, there"s no loss of quality between the studio master and the record you buy. Also, a CD is much tougher than a vinyl record, so it doesn"t need such careful handling. Dust and dirt won"t damage it, and as there"s no contact between the laser and the disk, it will never wear out. 3. The CD player produces an audio signal which you can amplify through a conventional hi-fi system, to produce the best sound possible. The technique became a new exciting development in hi-fi, linking sound recording with the computer revolution: What has followed it? Notes 1. Sony – Сони {японская фирма no производству радиоаппаратуры) 2. It"s similar to – он похож на III. Say what a compact disk looks like. IV. Write out of paragraph I two peculiarities of CD disks. V. Try to answer the following questions about ordinary disks: 1. How is an ordinary record "read"? 2. In the new design the information is digital. What about ordinary disks? VI. Look through paragraph 2 again and speak about: 1) the construction of a compact disk: 2) the peculiarities of it; 3) the advantages of it; 4) the principle of operation. VII. Count the number of advantages of new records mentioned in paragraph 2 and name them. VIII. Use the information of texts А, В and С for preparing a report on the theme "Everything about record-players". Key to Lessоп 3: Getting the best from your stereo system.

LESSON TWO I. Study text A. Try to understand all details. Use a dictionary if necessary: Text A The History of Television as a Technology 1. It is often said that television has altered our world. The invention of television was no single event or series of events. It depended on a complex of inventions and developments in electricity, telegraphy, photography and motion pictures1, and radio. It can be said to have separated out as a specific technological objective in the period of 1875-1890, and then, after a lag, to have developed as a specific technological enterprise from 1920 through to the first public television systems of the 1930s. Yet in each of these stages it depended on inventions made with other ends in view2. 2. Television, as an idea, was involved with many of these inventions. It is difficult to separate it, in its earliest stages, from phototelegraphy. The means of transmitting still pictures and moving pictures were actively .sought and to a considerable extent discovered. The list is long even when selective3: Carey"s electric eye in 1875, Nipkow"s scanning system in 1884; Braun"s cathode-ray tube in 1897; Rosing"s cathode-ray receiver in 1907. 3. Through this whole period two facts are evident: that a system of television was foreseen, and its means were being actively sought4, but also that, by comparison with electrical generation and electrical telegraphy and telephony, there was very little social investment to bring the scattered work together5. In 1923 Zworykin introduced the electronic television camera tube. Through the early 1920s Baird and Lenkins, separately and competitively, were working on systems using mechanical scanning. There was great rivalry between systems and there is still great controversy about contributions and priorities6. 4. What is interesting throughout is that in a number of complex and related fields, these systems of mobility and transfer in production and communication were at once incentives and responses within a phase of general transformation. The decisive transformation of industrial production and its new forms created new needs but also new possibilities, and the communications systems, down to television7, were their outcome. Notes 1.motion pictures - кино 2.with other ends in view - с другими целями 3. the list is long even when selective - список длинный, даже если он сделан выборочно 4.its means were being actively sought - шли активные поиски средств 5. to bring the scattered work together - соединить разрозненные работы вместе 6. there is still controversy about contributions and priorities .- все еще идет полемика по поводу степени участия и приоритета 7.down to television - вплоть до телевидения П. Say whether the following statements are true or false: 1. The invention of television was no single event or series of events. 2. In each of the stages the development of television depended on inventions made with other ends in view. 3. It is not difficult to separate television, in its earliest stages, from phototelegraphy. 4. The means of transmitting still pictures and moving pictures were discovered. 5. There was great rivalry between systems, but there is no controversy about contributions and priorities. 6. The decisive transformation of industrial production created new needs and possibilities. III. Answer the questions on paragraph 1: 1. Has television altered our world? 2. What did the invention of television depend on? 3. Television has developed as a specific technological enterprise, hasn"t it? IV. Find the information dealing with scientists′ contribution to the development of television.

VI. Translate paragraph 3 into Russian. VII. Read paragraph 4 and say what the decisive transformation of industrial production and its new forms resulted in. VIII. Write out of the text the words and phrases describing the history of television. IX. Make an outline of the article. X. Speak about the history of television. LESSON THREE I. Look through the list of English words and their Russian equivalents facilitating reading text B: sophisticated – сложный; live transmission – прямая передача; picture scanner - анализатор изображения; value - величина, значение; photosensitive cell – фоточувствительный элемент; to trace out a line - размечать строку; frame frequency - частота кадра; crude - незрелый; scanning speed - скорость развертки; to retain an image - сохранять изображение; succession - последовательность; uninterrupted flow – непрерывный поток; to glow – светиться; to strike (struck) – ударять; allocated dot – нужная точка. II. Skim through the text. Try to understand the main contents(you are given 15 minutes): Text В Television. How does it work? The principles of television aren"t as complicated - or as modern - as you might think. TV technology has become more sophisticated than ever, but the basic method of sending a television picture is quite simple. The first live transmission was made by John Logie Baird, the TV pioneer, in -1924. Television had come a long way since 1884, when Paul Nipkow from Germany patented a mechanical picture scanner. This system formed the basis for Baird"s historic, transmissions. Nipkow"s invention depended on a rotating disc. Light passing through the holes on the disc was transformed into electric values by photosensitive cells. The path of each hole in the disc was different, and thus traced out a different line, and read the entire frame in a logical order. At the receiving end, a lamp was used to send out corresponding impulses of light, which then passed through a further rotating disc, identical to the one at the transmitting end, and synchronized with it. The light passing through the disc was projected onto a screen to recreate the original object1. These attempts at televising objects were very crude, because the scanning speed was slow. A comparable system is used today except that electronic scanning equipment is much faster. Approximately 25 frames per second are scanned. Frame frequency is important in allowing television– and films to create moving pictures. The eye retains an image for about 1/16-th of a second, so the mind experiences2 this succession of pictures as an uninterrupted flow. The large number of lines on modern television make clearly defined pictures possible. The cathode-ray tube patented in 1897 is used, in its refined form3, in present-day television sets. Its importance lies in its capacity to produce pictures. The tube has a screen which glows when struck by a stream of electrons from an electron gun inside the tube. Each point of the screen emits more or less light according to how long the beam is aimed at it4. A colour television has three electron guns - one for each of the primary colours, red, blue and green. They bombard a screen of phosphor dots, arranged in groups of three - one dot for each colour - while a masking device sorts the beams so each one falls on its allocated dot. A colour television camera also has three cathode tubes and electron guns. Notes 1. to recreate the original object - для воссоздания исходного объекта 2. the mind experiences - мозг воспринимает 3. in its refined form - в усовершенствованном виде 4. how long the beam is aimed at it – как долго луч направлен на нее III. Answer the following questions: 1. Are the principles of television complicated? 2. When was the first live transmission made? 3. What did Nipkow"s invention depend on? 4. How was light transformed into electric values? 5. Was the light projected onto a screen to recreate the original object? 6. What does the importance of cathode-ray tube lie in? 7. How many electron guns does a colour television have? IV. Look through the text again and try to speak about the frame frequency used in television. LESSON FOUR I. Look through the list of English words and their Russian equivalents. You"11 need them to understand text С better: digital – дискретный, цифровой; to encode – кодировать; error – ошибка; audio – звуковой; available – доступный; span – интервал времени, долговечность. II. Read the text carefully and find the information about the advantages of digital television: Text С New Trend in Television 1. The so-called analogue systems of television are to be replaced by digital systems in the near future. In time all stages of TV broadcasting - from the camera to the TV tube – will be digitalized. New systems make it possible to encode and compress tremendous flows of visual information. The advantages of digital techniques, first of all, improve the quality of the picture. Digital recording is almost free of signal errors. This applies fully to both video and audio signals. 2. Turning an old medium to a digital, ‘interactive’ one seems to be even more difficult than introducing completely new technologies. The digitalization of television is a process of translation. The ‘script’ attached to television as we know it has to be changed – but this involves more than the technical issues of switching from analogue to digital signals and receivers. So far, the efforts to translate television have been centered around the figure of, "interactivity and the notion of a value-added" television, where digital technique allows new interactive features and services added on top of the familiar medium. The new interactive uses of television have been envisioned to include, e.g. – a wider choice of programme content by selecting channels or programs from video-on-demand services – simultaneous transactions – electronic shopping or betting related to the programme content – value-added information services – either relating to the programme or more general (citizen information services) – cross-media programmes spanning a combination of media channels such as TV, Internet, mobile phone – poll-type interaction using the return path or telephony – interactive programmes and games where the storyline and actions are modified by the user in a dynamic or exploratory way. It is obvious that the new interactive television services will affect the way we watch, use and think of television. Along with the new services, the existing and developing television user cultures also have an influence on what kinds of television content will succeed and what forms they will take. With the onset of digital television, changes in user behavior are to be expected, just like the introduction of remote control led to rapid channel changing (the "zapping" phenomenon). The changes in television watching habits can in turn lead to changes in production: the zapping phenomenon led to changes in the design and placement of commercials and greater segmentation of content within programs. Thus interactive television has been mostly addressed as a media technology and as a collection of programmes and services. III. Which paragraph contains the information directly connected with the title of the text? Render this information. IV. Explain why analogue systems of television will be replaced by digital systems in the near future. V. Find the information about how electronics experts have succeeded in better organizing the information flows. VII. Name the advantages of digital television over the analogue one. VIII. You have read three texts containing some information about television. Summarizing the general ideas developed in texts А, В and C, prepare a report on the theme "Television. History and new trends in its development". The following plan will help you: 1. The invention of television - the result of a complex of inventions. 2. Nipkow’s invention as the basis of the first live transmission. 3. The mechanical picture scanner and the principle of its work. 4. Some characteristics of modern TV sets. 5. The advantages of digital television. UNIT FIVE Grammar: Infinitive and its Functions (§ 13). Complex Object (§13,4).

LESSON TWO I. Study text A. Try to understand all details. Use a dictionary if necessary: Text A The Age of Electronics 1. The discovery of the electron, and the investigations into its nature which followed, led to a revolution in physical science. The revolution in pure science rapidly bore fruit1 in many fields of applied science and technology, especially in the applied science of electronics. The vacuum techniques developed for the study of free electrons and cathode rays led directly to the radio valve and the television receiver. The new electronics combined with the older techniques of the telegraph and telephone produced a revolution in communications on a world scale. If the discovery of the electron had led only to radio and television it would still represent a decisive factor in the shaping of our civilization – but it led to much more. 2. Electronics produced radar. It led to nucleonics and hence to the exploitation of the immense store of energy locked in the atom. It gave birth2 to the electronic computer. By the middle of the twentieth century a rapidly expanding, world-wide electronics industry was pouring out millions of parts for radio and television receivers and instruments for every branch of science and technology – instruments capable of unprecedented speed and sensitivity3. 3. Electronic devices give immense extension to our senses. We can now examine structures too small to be visible in even the most powerful optical microscope and receive signals from radio stars which started their long journey through space ages before there was any life on our planet. Electronics combined with rocketry has enabled scientists to take close-up pictures4 of the moon. Electronics applied to medicine has already produced significant advances in diagnosis and treatment. 4. Electronics plays the leading role in automation which is generating a second industrial revolution of wider social significance than the first. 5. Electronics has also given birth to cybernetics which offers, for the first time in history, an effective science of government based on adequate information and communication. 6. It seems very probable that electronics will dominate technology even in the distant future. Notes 1. to bear fruit – приносить плоды, давать результаты 2. to give birth – родить, породить 3. unprecedented speed and sensitivity – небывалая скорость и чувствительность 4. to take close-up pictures – делать снимки с близкого расстояния II. Say whether the following statements are true or false: 1. The revolution in pure science rapidly bore fruit in many fields of applied science and technology. 2. The new electronics produced a revolution in communications. 3. The discovery of the electron led to a revolution only in physical science. 4. Electronics doesn"t play the leading role in automation. III. Answer the following questions on paragraph 2: 1. What did electronics produce? 2. What did it lead to? 3. What did it give birth to? 4. What was electronics industry pouring out by the middle of the twentieth century? IV. Translate paragraph 3 into Russian. V. Read paragraph 4 and say where electronics plays the leading role. VI. In paragraph 2 find the English equivalents of the following words: электроника, радар, запас, электронная вычислительная машина, часть, прибор, телевизионный приемник, отрасль, чувствительность, технология, производить. VII. Write out of the text the words and phrases describing general uses of electronics. VIII. Make an outline of the text. IX. Speak about the age of electronics using your outline. LESSON THREE I. Look through the list of English words and their Russian equivalents. You will need them for better understanding text B: radio tube – радиолампа; wire– провод, проволока; layer – слой; junction – соединение, сочленение; переход; a solid-state diode – твердотельный диод; sound picture – 1. звуковое кино; 2. звуковой кинофильм; long-distance telephone call – междугородный телефонный вызов; seek – искать; to adapt – приспосабливать; control – управление; регулирование; image – изображение; to respond – реагировать; to detect – замечать, обнаруживать. П. Skim through text В and choose the best title for it: 1. Electronics in Industry. 2. Electronics and the Second Industrial Revolution. 3. General Uses of Electronics. Text B Electronics is the science or practice of using electricity in devices similar to transistors and radio tubes so as to get results not possible with ordinary electrical equipment. Most persons know how electric current flows in motors and transformers; here the electricity always flows in the copper wire or other metal parts. When electricity passes through space as occurs within a tube, such action is called electronic. More recently, when layers of semiconductor metals are joined together so that current flows through the junction in one direction only, as in a solid-state diode or a transistor, such action is also called electronic. If a device passes its stream of electrons through internal space, or through the junction where certain different metals meet, the device is called electronic. Without electronics there might be no radio, television, sound pictures or long-distance telephone calls. Most of these familiar equipments serve to carry or give information; so communication early was a main purpose of electronics and still holds interest of many workers and students in this field. Meanwhile industry seeking faster and more accurate methods o

ПРЕДИСЛОВИЕ

Возрастающая роль и значение самостоятельной работы студентов в вузе в системе высшего образования на данном этапе развития общества неоспорима и давно волнует преподавателей высшей школы, так как глубокие прочные знания и устойчивые умения могут быть приобретены студентами только в результате самостоятельной работы. Вопрос в том, как организовать самостоятельную работу студентов наиболее эффективно с тем, чтобы не только предоставить студентам определенную сумму знаний по различным учебным предметам, а стимулировать их взять из полученного ими материала все самое необходимое, уметь применять на практике знания, которые должны быть активными и развивающимися.

При таком подходе знания студентов не являются конечной целью, а служат лишь средством их дальнейшего развития.

Особое значение для формирования у студентов потребности в самостоятельном овладении знаниями, умениями и навыками самообразования имеет учебно-методический комплекс (УМК). В связи с этим и началась разработка УМК «Английский язык для начинающих радиотехнического факультета и факультета информационных технологий»

как необходимого компонента системно-методического обеспечения процесса обучения, так называемого English for specific purpose для студентов 1 курса неязыковых специальностей вузов.

ВВЕДЕНИЕ

Курс «Английский язык для начинающих радиотехнического факультета и факультета информационных технологий» рассчитан на часа практических занятий в течение двух семестров на первом курсе вузов согласно рабочей программе.

В ходе этого курса вы должны овладеть навыками чтения и понимания прочитанного на английском языке и должны уметь высказываться по любой теме, изученной в рамках курса, уметь поддержать беседу. Для овладения этими навыками вы должны усвоить около лексических единиц специальной терминологии.

Учебная программа построена на принципе блочно-модульного подхода, что предполагает тематическое членение материала, текущий контроль за качеством овладения материалом, акцентирование внимания на вопросах, вызывающих у студентов особые сложности, максимальную поддержку и помощь в процессе освоения материала.

Учебно-методический комплекс представляет следующие возможности и условия для обеспечения самостоятельной работы студентов:

– дается программа действий для самостоятельной работы студентов;

– осуществляется ориентация в материале курса в целом и в каждой его – осуществляется завершенность и этапность обучения;

– обеспечивается возможность постоянного и систематического контроля за качеством знаний и умений, приобретаемых студентом;

– вырабатываются навыки рациональной организации учебного – осуществляется индивидуализация обучения.

В структуру УМК помимо учебного плана, тестов и заданий для контроля, трех приложений, списка рекомендованной литературы, включены три модуля, которые организованны по тематическому принципу.

Каждый модуль состоит из элементов, которые в свою очередь представляют самостоятельный комплекс.

Модуль начинается нулевым учебным элементом (УЭ-0), служащим введением в модуль и обозначающим интегрирующую цель.

Заканчивается каждый модуль учебным элементом УЭ-последний (Progress Test), обеспечивающим итоговый контроль. Ключи для самоконтроля можно найти в конце УМК, в приложении 3 (Appendix 3).

Тематика и характер учебных материалов, представленных в УМК, обеспечивают формирование у студентов фонетических, лексических, грамматических навыков, социального и профессионального словаря, а также навыков чтения и говорения в рамках социальной и профессиональной тематики.

Пособие завершают полезные, как для учебного процесса, так и для практической работы, приложения:

Appendix 1: Supplementary Reading (для развития навыков чтения и перевода) Appendix 2: Irregular Verbs (список неправильных глаголов) Appendix 3: Keys (ключи к лексико-грамматическим тестам и упражнениям) Успехов в учебе! Good Luck!

friend ought [:t] Три основных правила произношения английских слов:

1. Краткость или долгота гласных звуков в русском языке не влияет на смысл слова. В английском же языке долгота или краткость произнесенного гласного звука меняет смысл слова. Так, [ p] – корабль, а – овца.

2. В отличие от русского языка в английском языке согласные звуки не оглушаются в конце слова. Оглушение согласных отражается на смысле слова. Например: – сумка, – спина.

3. Гласная буква е в конце слова не читается. Чтение гласной буквы в английском языке зависит от ее положения в слове (ударное или неударное) и от типа слога (открытый или закрытый).

Чтение гласных букв а, е, i, о, и, у зависит от 1) типа слога, в котором они стоят 2) ударные они или безударные 3) от того, какие буквы стоят впереди или позади них Правила чтения гласных а, е, i, о, и, у в ударных и безударных слогах

Артикль является самым распространенным определителем существительного в английском языке. В русском языке артикль отсутствует.

В английском языке два артикля: неопределенный – а и определенный – the.

Неопределенный артикль имеет две формы: a, an. Форма а употребляется перед словами, начинающимся с согласной буквы, и произносится как звук – a desk. Форма an употребляется перед словами, начинающимся с гласной буквы, и произносится [n] – an end.

Неопределенный артикль употребляется только с исчисляемыми существительными в единственном числе, следовательно, он является признаком единственного числа существительного. Неопределенный артикль имеет классифицирующее значение; он обозначает, что существительное, определяемое им, относится к классу предметов, является одним из подобного рода предметов. Например: Paul is a teacher.

Определенный артикль the произносится перед словами, начинающимися с согласной буквы – the lake, и перед словами, начинающимися с гласной – the end.

Определенный артикль, в отличие от неопределенного, употребляется с именами существительными как в единственном, так и во множественном числе. Он указывает на то, что 1) предмет (или лицо) является выделенным из всех лиц (или предметов) данного класса, известных собеседнику, или что 2) лицо (или предмет) упоминалось раньше.

Например: It‘s a teacher. The teacher is clever. It‘s a lake. The lake is deep.

Артикль является, как указывалось, признаком существительного, служебным словом. Он произносится всегда без ударения, слитно со следующим за ним словом. Например, a tent ["tent], the text [ "tekst].

Количественные числительные от 100 и далее Количественные числительные от 100 до 900 образуются от соответствующих числительных первого десятка прибавлением слова hundred (сотня). В английском языке между сотнями и десятками употребляется слово and:

100 – a (one) hundred 101 – a (one) hundred and one 200 – two hundred 236 – two hundred and thirty-six Аналогичным образом образуются тысячи, миллионы и т.д.

1000 – a (one) thousand 1001 – a (one) thousand one 3,330 – three thousand three hundred and thirty 2,000,000 – two million Обратите внимание, что числительные hundred, thousand, million не принимают окончание –s, когда перед ними стоит другое числительное.

Если эти числительные обозначают неопределенное количество, они употребляются во множественном числе с окончанием –s, за которым следует предлог of:

hundreds of sportsmen – сотни спортсменов thousands of people – тысячи людей millions of books – миллионы книг Порядковые числительные, начиная с числительного 4 (four) образуются с помощью суффикса –th и употребляются с определенным артиклем.

28th – the twenty-eighth 100th – the hundredth 1000th – the thousandth Исключения!

1st – the first 2nd – the second 3rd – the third [з:d] Для обозначения номеров домов, комнат, транспорта, страниц, глав употребляются не порядковые, а количественные числительные.

Русскому вопросу Который час? В английском языке соответствует What is the time? или What time is it? Ответ: It is 7 (oclock). Семь часов.

При обозначении времени, если минутная стрелка часов находится в первой половине циферблата, употребляется предлог past (после), в левой половине – предлог to (до, к). Например:

Its 6 oclock (sharp) – Шесть часов (ровно).

Its twenty minutes past one. – Двадцать минут второго.

Its twenty minutes to eleven. – Без двадцати одиннадцать.

Также употребляются слова half (половина) и quarter (четверть).

Слово half употребляется без артикля. Например:

Its half past two. – Половина третьего.

Слово quarter употребляется с артиклем. Например:

Its a quarter to twelve. – Без четверти двенадцать.

Запомните следующие выражения, употребляемые в разговоре о времени:

My watch is slow. – Мои часы отстают.

My watch is 5 minutes fast. – Мои часы спешат на 5 минут.

My watch doesnt keep the right time. – Мои часы идут неточно.

My watch is wrong. – Мои часы идут неверно.

Its 5 minutes past two by my watch. – На моих часах 5 минут третьего.

В современной английской разговорной речи имеет место тенденция единой структуры обозначения времени независимо от положения минутной стрелки на левой или правой половине циферблата. Например:

Аналогичная форма употребляется для обозначения времени маршрутов транспорта. Например:

The 9:45 train to Glasgo. – Поезд, следующий в Глазго, отправляется в 9:45.

Словосочетания в 5 часов, в половине третьего и т.п. употребляются с предлогом at: at 5 oclock, at half past two.

Утвердительная форма повелительного предложения образуется при помощи неопределенной формы смыслового глагола без частицы to.

Отрицательная форма повелительного предложения образуется с помощью глагола do, отрицания not и смыслового глагола в инфинитиве без частицы to. (Сокращенная форма do not – don‘t).

Притяжательный падеж существительных В отличие от русского языка в английском имеется лишь два падежа:

общий (the common case) и притяжательный (the possessive case).

Существительные в общем падеже не имеют никаких окончаний.

Притяжательный падеж обозначает принадлежность предмета комулибо и употребляется преимущественно с одушевлнными существительными и именами собственными. Существительное в притяжательном падеже является определением следующего за ним существительного и отвечает на вопросы чей? чья? чь? В русском языке ему соответствует существительное в родительном или притяжательном падеже.

Притяжательный падеж существительных в единственном числе образуется путм прибавления к существительному окончания –s. При этом –s произносится по тем же правилам, что и окончание –s множественного числа существительных. Когда два и более лица обладают одним предметом, окончание притяжательного падежа –s употребляется только с последним существительным. Форма притяжательного падежа множественного числа образуется путм прибавления апострофа () после слова во множественном числе, причм в произношении никакого звука не добавляется.

Слова, образующие множественное число не по общему правилу, принимают в притяжательном падеже –s.

Kate Jane George Мн. число Sid and Nick Sid and Nick‘s sister – сестра Сида и Ника students children Идея принадлежности для неодушевлнных предметов выражается, как правило, существительным в общем падеже с предлогом of, например, the legs of the table – ножки стола. В то же время ряд неодушевлнных существительных могут образовывать притяжательный падеж путм прибавления –s. Эта форма распространяется на существительные, обозначающие:

a) отрезки времени и расстояние, yesterday‘s news – вчерашние новости, today‘s menu – сегодняшнее меню, a mile‘s distance – расстояние в милю, an hour‘s rest – часовой отдых.

b) названия стран, городов, судов, самолтов: Britain‘s industry – промышленность Великобритании, Moscow‘s underground – московское метро.

c) вес, стоимость, место a kilo‘s weight – килограммовый вес, at the baker‘s – в булочной, a ten dollars‘ note – десятидолларовая купюра.

d)со словами country – страна, city – большой город, town – городок, nature – природа, the world – мир, the moon – луна, the earth – земля, the sea – море, the ocean – океан: the town‘s park, the world‘s first satellite – первый мировой спутник.

В то же время отношения принадлежности могут быть выражены с помощью оборота с предлогом of с одушевлнными существительными, кроме имн собственных. Например, me sister‘s book = the book of my sister, this year‘s events – the events of this year – события этого года; но: Ann‘s book, Peter‘s friend.

Вопросительная и отрицательная формы образуются при помощи глагола to do, который в данном случае утратил сво смысловое значение и играет роль вспомогательного глагола без частицы to. Вспомогательного глагол to do имеет единую форму для всех лиц (do) за исключением 3-го лица единственного числа (does).

В английском языке существует пять основных типов вопросов:

общий, специальный, альтернативный, разделительный и вопрос к подлежащему. Для первых трех типов вопросов используется обратный порядок слов, т.е. вспомогательный глагол, подлежащее, смысловой глагол и дополнительные члены предложения.

Итак, как вы уже знаете, общий вопрос начинается с соответствующего времени сказуемого вспомогательного глагола и на него мы можем ответить лишь да или нет. Например:

Is this your book? – Yes, it is./ No, it isn‘t.

Do you go to the university by bus? – Yes, I do./ No, I don‘t.

Альтернативный вопрос задается так же как и общий, но предлагается выбор с использованием слова or (или). На данный вопрос дается полный ответ.

Do you go to the university by bus or by tram? – I go to the university by bus.

Специальный вопрос начинается с одного из вопросительных слов what, when, why, where, how, how much/ many, which и т.д. За вопросительным словом следует вспомогательный глагол. Например:

Where is your brother? – He is at school.

What is the colour of your favourite dress? – It‘s red.

Запомните смысловую разницу следующих вопросов:

Чтобы задать разделительный вопрос или вопрос с «хвостиком» мы к исходному повествовательному предложению прибавляем так называемый «хвостик», который состоит из вспомогательного глагола и местоимения, замещающего подлежащее.

Следует помнить, что если структура самого предложения утвердительная, то «хвостик» будет отрицательным и наоборот.

Разделительный вопрос, как правило, задается для того, чтобы получить подтверждение информации, заключенной в первой части предложения. Если вы уверены в утвердительном ответе, то вопрос произносится с нисходящим тоном. В таком случае вопрос часто служит для начала либо поддержания разговора. Когда вы не уверены в положительном ответе, он произносится с восходящим тоном.

Вопросительная часть данного вопроса переводится на русский язык словами не так ли?. Как правило, на данный вопрос мы отвечаем кратко.

Например:

It‘s a nice day, isn‘t it? Yes, it is. – Хороший день, не так ли? – Да.

They are mathematicians, aren‘t they? No, they aren‘t. – Они математики, не так ли? – Нет.

There aren‘t any theatres in this city, are there? No, there aren‘t. – В этом городе нет театров, не так ли? – Да.

He doesn‘t learn English, does he? No, he doesn‘t. – Он не учит английский, не так ли? – Да.

Вопрос к подлежащему начинается с вопросительного слова who (кто) или what (что), которые заменяют подлежащее повествовательного предложения при этом порядок слов остается прямым.

Например:

Who is absent today? – Lena is absent today. – Кто сегодня отсутствует? – Сегодня отсутствует Лена.

What is good for your health? – Sport is good for my health. – Что полезно для твоего здоровья? – Спорт полезен для моего здоровья.

6) Who is your best friend?

7) Where are you from?

8) Does your mother work?

9) Do you study at school or at the university?

10) What is your father like?

Example: What does your mother usually do in the kitchen in the morning? (cook/ breakfast).
