Exercises
1. Find Gerunds, determine their functions in the sentences and
translate the sentences into Russian.
1.In moving through a vacuum these electrons form an electric current. 2.
For 40 years this device underwent constant improving and by 1997 it
had performed so many different functions, that it seemed absurd to
suppose it could ever be replaced. 3. The idea of using this technique is
new and somewhat unexpected.4. It is worth mentioning in this
connection that this technique found no support two years ago. 5. It’s
useless devoting so much time to this problem without specifying all the
details of the procedure. It’s no good wasting much time in debates.
6.The way of avoiding these difficulties is unknown at present. 7. This
procedure will give us the possibility of determining both the state
estimation and the time delay. 8. We succeeded in simplifying the
calculations of the magnetic strength. 9. We can’t help recognizing the
importance of their discovery. 10. One can increase the current by
reducing the resistance of the circuit. 11.There are different ways of
charging a body with electricity. 12. In recent years man has succeeded in
controlling chemical reactions. 13. Researches studied the power of
music by observing two groups of pre-schoolers.
parts. 10. The scientist is carrying on an important research.
11.Developing the new method they achieved good results.
4.Translate the following sentences:
1.Having improved this device they could use it for many purposes. 2.
When making the experiment he made notes.. 3. The vibrations of a voice

applying the new method of work he got better results. 5. While he was
experimenting with this substance he was very careful. 6. When the en-
gineer was improving the design he made many calculations. 7. While
the man was describing this phenomenon he illustrated it with numerous
examples. 8. When these scientists were working in our laboratory they
obtained good results.
