The ‘Veggie’ Lion
I’m a vegetarian Lion, I’ve given up all meat, I’ve given up all roaring All I do is go tweet-tweet
I never ever sink* my claws Into some animal’s skin, It only lets the blood run out And lets the germs* rush in.
In used to be ferocious*, I even tried to kill!’ But the sight of all that blood made me feel quite ill.
I once attacked an Elephant I sprang straight at his head. I woke up three days later In a Jungle hospital bed.
Now I just eat carrots, They’re easier to kill, Cos when I pounce* upon them They all remain quite still!
Spike Milligan

sink — penetrate or enter germs — small living things in food or in the body which may make you ill ferocious — wild pounce — jump

What is a greenhouse?
A greenhouse is a building made of glass, where you can grow flowers and other plants that need a lot of warmth.
How it works
The sun shines through the glass and warms the greenhouse, and the roof and walls stop the heat from getting out.
Our Greenhouse
The Earth is surrounded by a blanket of invisible gases (with names like carbon dioxide) that act just like a greenhouse. The sun shines in, and the blanket of gases traps the heat like a roof, keeping it close to the planet. That’s good — we can’t live without warmth.
What’s going on?
Factories, electric power plants, and cars are making a lot of new gases. Even when trees are cut down they give off gases! These new gases are trapping more and more of the sun’s heat. This is called the greenhouse effect, or global warming.
What can happen?
If the earth’s temperature gets hotter by just a few degrees, it could change the weather all over the planet in big ways. Places that are warm would become too hot to live in, and places that are cold would become warm. The places that grow most of
our food could get too hot to grow crops anymore.
Every kid can help stop the greenhouse effect by using less energy, protecting and planting trees, and by recycling so factories don’t need to work as hard to make things.

warmth, roof, blanket, invisible, to trap, close
II. Read the text.
III. Find equivalents for the following words and word combinations:

IV. True or false:
1.The roof and walls of a greenhouse keep the heat from getting out.
2. The Earth is surrounded by a blanket of invisible gases.
3.This blanket traps the heat like a roof.
4. Factories can’t make a lot of gases.
5. Cutting down trees gives off gases.
6. The Earth’s temperature gets hotter.
7. Some places become too hot to live.

Acid Rain
Up in the sky
When we look up, we see the clouds and the blue sky. But there are other things in the sky that we don’t see. Some of these are harmful to the Earth.
What happens
When power plants burn coal to make electricity, and when cars burn gasoline, invisible gases are released into the air. Some of these gases can mix with water and make it acidic, like lemon juice or vinegar.
What can happen
Sometimes the gases get into rain clouds, where they get mixed in with rain or snow. Then the acid falls back to earth with the rain or snow. This is called acid rain.
Bad news
Acid rain is extremely harmful to plants, rivers and lakes, and the creatures that live in them. In some places it is killing forests. And it pollutes the water that animals and people need to drink.
Your mission
It’s very important for us to stop making acid rain. One good way to do it to drive our cars less. Another good way is to save energy. The less energy we use, the less coal those power plants will have to burn.
You and your family can save energy in lots of ways. Saving energy means saving the Earth.

The Ozone Hole
The ozone layer
Up in the sky, above the air we breathe, there’s a layer of a gas called the ozone. It helps us by blocking out rays from the sun that can harm our skin, and by letting the rays that are good for us come through. We’re lucky to have the ozone to protect us.
What’s happening?
Now the ozone layer is being damaged by gases that people have made. The gases are called CFCs and halons. They are used in refrigerators, fire extinguishers, air conditioners, plastic foam, and some other things.
How it happens
The CFCs float up to the top of the atmosphere, where the ozone layer is and «eat up» the ozone.
Our mission
Scientists are very concerned about the ozone layer, because a lot of it has disappeared in just a few years. So it’s very important that we learn to do something
about it.
We can all help to stop the ozone layer from disappearing!

Too Much Garbage
Garbage away!
When you throw something away, it goes in a garbage can. Once a week a garbage truck comes and the can is emptied, and that’s the last you see of it. But what do you think happens to the garbage then? Does it just disappear? No way!
What happens
Almost all garbage is taken to a garbage dump, or landfill, where the garbage truck empties it onto the ground. After the truck leaves, a big tractor comes along and pushes dirt on top of the garbage. So, most of our garbage is just b

THE NATURE OF ELECTRICITY
Practical electricity is produced by small atomic particles known as electrons. It is the movement of these particles which produce the effects of heat and light.
The pressure that forces these atomic particles to move, the effects they encounter opposition and how these forces are controlled are some of the principles of electricity.
Accepted atomic theory states that all matter is electrical in structure. Any object is largely composed of a combination of positive and negative particles of electricity. Electric current will pass through a wire, a body, or along a stream of water. It can be established in some substances more readily than in others, that all matter is composed of electric particles despite some basic differences in materials. The science of electricity then must begin with a study of the structure of matter.
Matter is defined as any substance which has mass (or weight) and occupies space. This definition should be broad enough to cover all physical objects in the universe. Wood, water, iron, and paper are some examples of matter. Energy is closely related to, but not to be confused with, matter. Energy does not have mass, and it does not occupy space. Heat and light are examples of energy.
The smallest particle of
matter which can be recognized as an original substance was thought to be a
unit called the atom. Recently scientists have found particles even smaller
than atoms, but our theories are still based on the atom. The atom consists of
a nucleus and a cloud of electrons. It is generally agreed that the electrons
are small particles of electricity, which are negative in nature. These
particles orbit the nucleus in much the same fashion that planets orbit a sun.

ELECTRIC CURRENT
The electric current is a quantity of electrons flowing in a circuit per second of time. The unit of measure for current is ampere. If one coulomb passes a point in a circuit per second then the current strength is 1 ampere. The symbol for current is I.
The current which flows along wires consists of moving electrons. The electrons move along the circuit because the e .m. f. drives them. The current is directly proportional to the e. m. f.
In addition to traveling through solids, however, the electric current can flow through liquids as well and even through gases. In both cases it produces some most important effects to meet industrial requirements.
Some liquids, such as melted metals for example, conduct current without any change to themselves. Others, called electrolytes, are found to change greatly when the current passes through them.
When the electrons flow in one direction only, the current is known to be d. c., that is, direct current. The simplest source of power for the direct current is a battery, for a battery pushes the electrons in the same direction all the time (i.e., from the negatively charged terminal to the positively charged terminal).
The letters a. c. stand for alternating current. The current under consideration flows first in one direction and then in the opposite one. The a. c. used for power and lighting purposes is assumed to go through 50 cycles in one second. One of the great advantages of a. c. is the ease with which power at low voltage can be changed into an almost similar amount of power at high voltage and vice versa. Hence, on the one hand alternating voltage is increased when it is necessary for long-distance transmission and, on the other hand, one can decrease it to meet industrial requirements as well as to operate various devices at home.
Although there are numerous
cases when d. c. is required, at least 90 per cent of electrical energy to be
generated at present is a. c. In fact, it finds wide application for lighting,
heating, industrial, and some other purposes.

4. Give Russian equivalents for the following:

III. Read and translate the text: the accounting profession
Accounting
is an old profession. Records of business transactions have been
prepared for centuries. However, only during the last half-century
accounting has been accepted as a profession with the same importance
as the medical or legal profession. Positions in the field of
accounting may be divided into several areas. Two general
classifications are public
accounting and
private
accounting. Public
accountants
are
those who serve the general public and collect professional fees for
their work, much as doctors and lawyers do. Their work includes
auditing, income tax planning and preparation, and management
consulting. Public accountants are a small fraction (about 10
percent)
of all accountants. Those public accountants who have met certain
professional requirements are designated as Certified Public
Accountants (CPAs).
Private
accountants
work
for a single business, such as a local department store, the
McDonald’s restaurant chain, or the Eastman Kodak Company. Charitable
organizations, educational institutions, and government agencies also
employ private accountants. The chief accounting officer usually has
the title of controller, treasurer, or chief financial officer.
Whatever the title, this person usually carries the status of
vice-president.
Some
public accountants pool their talents and work together within a
single firm. Most public accounting firms are also called CPA
firms because
most of their professional employees are CPAs. CPA firms vary greatly
in size. Some are small businesses, and others are medium-sized
partnerships. The largest CPA firms are worldwide partnerships with
over 2,000 partners. Such huge firms are necessary because some of
their clients are so large and their operations are so complex.
In
contrast to public accountants who provide accounting services for
many clients, management accountants provide accounting services for
a single business. In a company with many management accountants, the
executive officer in charge of the accounting activity is often
called a controller.
