9) Geological and Mining Engineering
1. What activities does this branch of engineering include?
2. What special and professional knowledge does a mining
engineer have to require?
This branch of engineering includes activities related to the
discovery and exploration of mineral deposits and the financing,
construction, development, operation, recovery
1
, processing,
purification
2
, and marketing of crude
3
minerals and mineral products.
The mining engineer is trained in historical geology, mineralogy,
paleontology, and geophysics, and employs such tools as the
seismograph and the magnetometer for the location of ore or
petroleum deposits beneath
4
the surface of the earth. The surveying
and drawing of geological maps and sections is an important part of
the work of the engineering geologist, who is also responsible for
determining whether the geological structure of a given location is
suitable for the building of such large structures as dams.

raw materials in industrial production. It is particularly important from
the viewpoint of costs and economics of production and safety of
human operators.
11) Mechanical Engineering

e.g. а). Dr Evans is examining for Leeds (=Leeds University) this
year.
(2) to conduct an oral examination.
e.g. b). (One teacher to another) - Can you come and see mе
tomorrow?
- No, I'm afraid I can't. I'm examining.
Note that I've got an exam is also possible in conversation, but it is
ambiguous, since it may also mean that one is taking an exam. In
most cases, however, the context makes it clear.
An examiner is а person who sets and marks а written
examination, or conducts an oral.
An examining board is а group, or committee, of examiners.
Commission and committee are not used here.
An (examination) candidate is а person being examined. It is formal
style.
e.g. Candidates must be in the examination room by 10 a.m.
Examinee means the same as candidate but is rarely used.
Перевод - translation
The following expressions are used in connection with translation
:
to do/write а translation;
to translate from Russian into English/English into Russian, etc.;
а Russian- English/ English- Russian translation, etc.
prose
(translation) - translation from the native language into а
foreign language, that is, for Russian students, from Russian into
English.
unseen
(translation) or simply translation - translation from а
foreign language into the native language, that is, for Russian
students, from English into Russian.
These last two terms are widely used in the senior forms of schools
and in higher education. They originated in connection with the study
of Latin and Greek. Prose
was used because а passage of English
prose was given for translation into Latin/Greek, unseen
because а
passage of Latin/Greek, prose or verse, which the students had not
seen before, was given for translation into English. There is no reason
why Russian teachers should adopt these terms, since the terms
Russian-English/English-Russian translation
are clearer (although
much longer), but they may come across prose/unseen
in an English
situation.
unprepared translation sometimes used in the sense of any
translation not prepared beforehand (as in an ехаminаtion), and
sometimes in the same sense as unseen, as defined above.
