and interrelated
1
. Thus a chemical engineer designing a plant for the
electrolytic refining
2
of metal ores
3
must deal with the design of
structures, machinery, and electrical devices, as well as with purely
4
chemical problems.
Besides the principal branches discussed below, engineering
includes many more specialties than can be described here, such as
acoustical engineering, architectural engineering automotive
engineering, ceramic engineering, transportation engineering, and
textile engineering.
Vocabulary:
1. interrelated – взаимосвязанный
2. refining – очищение
3. ore – руда
4. purely – исключительно, вполне
1) Aeronautical and Aerospace Engineering
1. What does aeronautical and aerospace engineering deal
with?
2. What supplementary information can you add to characterize
this field of engineering?
Aeronautics deals with the whole field of design, manufacture,
maintenance
1
, testing, and use of aircraft for both civilian
2
and
military purposes
3
. It involves the knowledge of structural design,
propulsion
4
engines, navigation, communication, and other related
areas.
Aerospace engineering is closely allied
5
to aeronautics, but is
concerned
6
with the flight of vehicles in space, beyond
7
the earth's
atmosphere, and includes the study and development of rocket
engines, artificial satellites, and spacecraft for the exploration of outer
space.
Vocabulary:
1. maintenance – техническое обслуживание, эксплуатация
2. civilian – гражданский
3. purpose – цель
4. propulsion – движение вперед
5. to ally – соединять
6. to be concerned – быть связанным
7. beyond – позади

e.g. а). Read the book carefully and make some notes (on ...)
b). Did you take notes at the lecture?
To make а note of smth
. means "to write down some fact or other
piece of information", for example, someone's telephone number.
e.g. c). - I'll just make а note of your telephone number.
If someone has taken notes at а lecture, for example, and wants to
rewrite them more clearly and neatly for future reference, the
expression to copy up
is used, not rewrite.
e.g. d). - I'll сору up the notes at home.
Сору (up) is also used when someone misses а lecture and wants to
have some notes.
e.g. е). - I missed Professor Brown's lecture but I copied up the
notes.
f). - Can I сору your notes on Professor Brown's lecture?
Simply lecture
cannot be used in the sense of lecture notes.
Notes
is followed by the preposition on.
e.g. g). Will you lend те your notes on applied mathematics?
The subject can also be specified by such expressions as:
grammar/literature/philosophy notes
Курсовая работа
There is nothing equivalent to this in most English universities and
colleges. Arts students (i.e. students of the humanities) write essays
regularly throughout each year, and in some newer institutions they
also do projects, but none of these seem to occupy the specific place
of курсовая работа
in their course of studies. Essay, or project, can
be used to translate работа. An essay may range in length from З-4
pages to about 20, and may involve а lot of reading
.
and/or collecting
of material.
Курсовая
is difficult to translate in such а way as to make а good
combination with essay
and project. The only possibilities seem to be
yearly or first/sеcond/third/fourth-year. This gives the following
possible translations:
yearly essay/project
or first/second/third/fourth-year essay/project
e.g. а). First-year essays must be given in by April 30th.
b). (Teacher to students) - You should be starting work on
your (yearly) projects soon.
с). (One student to another) - Have you finished your
essay/project yet?
Seminar
This is а still smaller and
,
more informal group. The number of
students usually ranges from five to ten. Seminars are often held
