III. Language.

Exercise 5. Match words in column A with their translation in column B:

Column A	Column B
appropriate essential property speed to assist to create to reduce to require to select to suggest to transmit	вибирати передавати допомогати пропонувати властивість швидкість створювати скорочувати підходящий основний вимагати

Exercise 6. Look through the text A and find the words which mean the following:

1. a science that deals with design, construction and operation of structures, machines, engines and other devices.

2. a person who has received technical education and has a basic knowledge of the other engineering fields.

3. deals with the design of large buildings, roads, bridges, dams, canals, railway lines, airports, tunnels and their constructions.

4. must be trained in mechanics and hydraulics, metallurgy and machine design.

5. the widest field of engineering, concerned with systems and devices that use electric power and signals.

6. deals with the research, design and application of circuit and devices used in the transmission and processing of information.

7. the trend towards integrating electronic devices on a single tiny chip of silicon or some other semiconductor material.

8. design and manufacture memory systems, central processing units and peripheral devices.

9. deals with the whole field of design, manufacture, maintance, testing, and use of aircraft for both civil and military purposes.

10. a specialized branch of mechanical engineering devoted to the design and operation of systems.
