Exercise 19. Make up the story concerning your University




Exercise 18. Change according to the model

Exercise 15. Translate paying attention to the italicized words

1. That tube has two anodes and a single cathode. 2. The receivers discussed have been those designed for communication work only, but this is by no means the only purpose for which receivers are used. 3. A poor conductor has relatively few free electrons so that these few must travel around the circuit quite rapidly in order to secure an equally large current. 4. If a voltage differs greatly from that shown, the operator should consult his circuit diagram to determine which parts are in that circuit and which could possibly cause the trouble. 5. For converting the high-voltage alternating current delivered from the secondary of a power transformer to direct current, such as is required by radio receivers and transmitters, vacuum tube rectifiers are widely used. These employ the principle of electrons flowing from cathode to anode only when the anode has a positive charge applied to it.
