Text 1. Where does the word «automobile» come from?

The
word automobile
is
not English. It consists
of two
words: autos
and
mobilis.
Autos
is
a Greek word meaning
«self,
mobilis
—
a Latin word meaning «movable». The two words taken
together mean «self-moving». Thus, an automobile
means
a self-moving
vehicle. The
synonyms of automobile are: auto, car, auto-car, motor
car.

The
role and importance
of
an automobile arise
from
the fact that it can move along roads unprovided
with
rails. In this respect, it substantially
differs from
a street
car (tram)
and a railway
car (train).
In fact, it often replaces street cars, railway cars, and other
agencies
of transportation and communication. In
short, the automobile is a vehicle well
adapted for
ordinary
road conditions.

The
automobile has long since ceased to
be a
matter of luxury or
sport and has become a decisive
factor in
the economic
development of
many countries. This
accounts for the fact that
the
world at large uses
a
great number of automobiles.
In some countries where automobiles are found
in
millions they are playing a most important part in the solution
of
many problems of transport.

The
development of automobiles is also accountable to
a large extent for
the progress in road maintenance,
improvement and
construction.

What
is the origin of the word automobile?

What
fact does the role and importance of the automobile arise from?

Why
does the automobile play an important part in the economic
development in many countries?

Unit 1

Automobile

1.
Прочитайте и переведите текст.

Since the first automobile was introduced
to our life, we can notice that there are a lot of changes happened around us.
As a modern transportation, it not only brings convenience to our daily life,
but also enhances the efficiency.

One of advantages of using automobiles is
that it can give the users much more convenience compared with other
transportations, such as bikes or buses. For me, I like to go to the
supermarket once per week and normally buy many foods at one time. Can you
imagine that I need to carry a lot of foodstuff and maybe take a crowded bus to
reach home? How inconvenient it is! Suppose that I have a car, and then I will
feel very easy because what I need to do is to put all my stuff at the back of
the car.

On the other hand, automobiles can save our
time and energy. Driving the automobile, we can go wherever we want to go. We
can  reach  the destination faster than other transportation
means.  We can use the saved  hours to enjoy the views or do anything
that we want. After all, time means a lot to modern people. It can mean money
to businessmen, knowledge to school students and profit to companies. By means
of cutting time with the help of automobiles, we can increase the efficiency of
our society.

Of course, I must admit that automobiles
bring a lot of problems such as traffic jam and air pollution. But these
outcomes cannot be avoided during the development of a society. I believe we
will have a better solution to solve all these problems soon .

Generally speaking, I would like to say
automobiles have improved modern life through providing more convenience to
people and increasing efficiency. We should encourage the society to support
the automobile industry and develop different kinds of automobiles to meet
various needs.

2. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

The word automobile is not English. It
consists of two words: autos and mobilis. Autos is a Greek word meaning
«self, mobilis — a Latin word meaning «movable». The two

words taken together mean «self-moving».
Thus, an automobile means a self-moving vehicle.

The synonyms of automobile are: auto, car,
auto-car, motor car.

The role and importance of an automobile arise from
the fact that it can move along

roads unprovided with rails. In this respect, it
substantially differs from a street car (tram) and a railway car (train). In
fact, it often replaces street cars, railway cars, and other agencies of
transportation and communication. In short, the automobile is a vehicle well
adapted for ordinary road conditions.

The automobile has long since ceased to be
a matter of luxury or sport and has become a decisive factor in the economic
development of many countries. This accounts for the fact that the world at
large uses a great number of automobiles. In some countries

where automobiles are found in millions they are
playing a most important part in the solution of many problems of transport.

The development of automobiles is also
accountable to a large extent for the progress in road maintenance, improvement
and construction.

Unit 3

London Traffic

1. Прочитайте и письменно переведите текст.

London is so large that visitors must learn to
use buses and the underground to get about. London taxis are too expensive for
any but the rich. You can get a map of the underground and the bus routes at
any ticket office. The word «Underground» across a large circle shows
you where the stations are. The London underground is called the
«tube».

Bus stops are marked clearly.
In the suburbs buses do not stop unless there are passengers who wish to get on
or off. These stops are marked «Request Steps».

Inside some buses you will see the notice:
«Please, state your destination clearly and have the exact fare
ready.» It is easy enough to tell the conductor where you want to go to,
but not always possible to have the exact fare. The conductor will always give
you the change.

The London buses are very
large. They have seats both upstairs and downstairs. English children like to
sit on the front seats of a big London bus. They can see everything that is
happening in the streets.

Here are some of the things you may hear on a bus in London: 
«Fares, please.» 
«Four pence, please.» 
«Full up inside; plenty of seats on top.» 
«Standing room only.» 
«No, sir, this bus does not go to Victoria Station.» 
«You want a number 11.» 
«No more seats on top; five seats inside.»

In Great Britain traffic keeps
to the left. Motor-cars, buses and cyclists must all keep to the left side of
the road. In most other countries traffic keeps to the right. There is heavy
traffic in London and you must observe traffic rules.

2.Ответьте на вопросы.

1. What must visitors of London learn? Why? 
2. What can you get at any ticket office? 
3. What does the word «Underground» show? 
4. How is the London underground called? 
5. Which stops are marked «Request Stops»? 
6. What will you see inside some buses? 
7. What seats have London buses? 
8. Why must you observe traffic rules?

Vocabulary:

expensive — дорогой 
route — маршрут 
to mark — обозначать 
passenger — пассажир 
change — сдача 
exact — точный 
fare — плата 
traffic — движение

3. Перепишите следующие предложения ,
подчеркните в каждом из них модальный глагол или его эквивалент. Переведите на
русский язык.

1.    
Drivers must be very
attentive on the roads.

2.    
The mechanic should

Unit 4

Transport in Britain

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

You can reach England either by plane, by train, by car or by ship. The fastest way is by plane. London
has three international airports: Heathrow, the largest, connected to the city
by underground; Gatwick, south of London, with a frequent train service; Luton,
the smallest, used for charter flights.

If you go to England
by train or by car you have to cross the Channel. There is a frequent service
of steamers and ferryboats which connect the continent to the south-east of England.

People in Britain drive on the left and generally overtake on the right. The speed limit is 30
miles per hour (50 km/h) in towns and cities and 70
m.p.h. (110 km/h) on motorways.

When you are in London
you can choose from four different means of transport: bus, train, underground
or taxi. The typical bus in London is a red double-decker. The first London
bus started running between Paddington and the City in 1829. It carried 40
passengers and cost a shilling for six kms.

The next to arrive were the
trains; now there are twelve railway stations in London. The world’s first
underground line was opened between Baker St. and the City in 1863. Now there
are ten underground lines and 273 underground stations in use. The London underground is also called the Tube, because of the circular shape of its deep
tunnels. 

2.Ответьте письменно на вопросы:

1. What is the fastest way of traveling? 
2. How many airports are there in London? 
3. What kind of service helps to cross the Channel? 
4. What are some «rules» of driving in Britain? 
5. What does typical bus in London look like? 
6. Where was the first underground opened? 
7. Why is London underground called the Tube?

Vocabulary:

to reach — достигать 
underground — метро 
charter flight — чартерный рейс 
steamer — пароход 
ferry-boat — паром 
to overtake — обгонять 
shilling — шиллинг 
shape — форма

Commercial Vehicles

The new exhibition of
commercial vehicles centers around a 1930s street scene, showing home
deliveries, road making, and passenger hire vehicles.

The 1930s were a time of
transition in the commercial vehicle world. Mass produced light delivery vans
and lorries flooded onto the roads, and the horse was now only used for local
delivery work. Diesel engines were used by heavy lorries and steam wagons
disappeared.

The inter-war years were a boom
time for the bus, coach and charabanc. In the 1920s bus companies leapt from a
few hundred to four thousand. Bus design developed rapidly with solid tyres,
oil lamps and some open cabs disappearing and double deckers had covered tops.
The charabanc was a favourite for the company outing or weekend excursion.
Chilly and cramped, the charabanc opened up many parts of Britain beyond the reach of railways and created a new leisure for the working man.

The lorry today carries just
about everything we buy, sell, dispose of, or build. Fuel delivery, removals,
defence work, containers, supermarket supplies, tipping, mixing, fire fighting;
the list of tasks is endless.

 

Unit5

Cars

1.Прочитайте и письменно переведите текст.

Cars are automobiles that can
transport people. It is the main means of travelling for hundreds of millions
of people all over the world. Cars have changed the way we live probably more
than any other invention in history. At first only a few people had cars but
after a while more and more people bought them because they improved the way
people lived. Farmers with cars were able to bring their products to places
that were farther away. The appearance of cities and towns also changed. More
and more workers drove to their jobs and people started to move to suburbs
outside the town centers.

Automobiles give people many
jobs. Millions of people around the world work in factories where cars are
produced. Millions more work at gas stations, restaurants or motels that
travelers stop at.

However, cars also cause
problems. Millions of people die in car accidents every year. Automobiles
pollute the air that we breathe and parking space in cities is scarce because
everyone wants to use their cars to get to city centers.

Unit 6

The automobile life cycle

1. Прочитайте слова, отработайте произношение и
выучите их.

conclude  — заканчиваться

scrapping  — сдача в лом

approximately —  приблизительно

account for  — составлять

environmental impact  — воздействие на окружающую среду

acquisition  — добывание

processing  — переработка

consumption  — потребление

copious amounts  — огромное количество

involve  — включать

release  — выделять, выпускать

assembly plant  — сборочный завод

pollutant  — загрязняющее вещество

coating  — покрытие

wastewater  — сточные воды

trash  — мусор

scrap metal  — металлолом

emission  — выброс,
выделение

2. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

The life cycle of an automobile
begins with concept and design and concludes

with retirement (end-of-life scrapping).
Today, a vehicle consists of approximately 15

000 parts. Steel, iron, glass, textiles,
plastic, and non-ferrous metal dominate automobile construction. They account
for more than 80% of the material used in today’s vehicles. A common trend in
the material composition of a car is toward increasing the use of lightweight
materials, especially numerous types of plastics and light metal alloys (such
as aluminum and magnesium). The environmental impacts and concerns that arise
from the acquisition and processing of virgin resources that serve as input for
automotive material include the substantial consumption of resources (material
and energy). In addition, copious amounts of energy are consumed in heating,
cooling, and producing millions of tons of steel, aluminum, plastic, and glass.
Processing these materials involves a variety of heavy metals, toxic chemicals,
chlorinated solvents, and ozone depleting chemicals.

More than half of all releases
and transfers of pollutants originate from the painting and coating operations.
The largest solid waste streams generated by an automobile assembly plant are
wastewater treatment sludges, waste oil, plant trash, and scrap metal. The
utilization of an automobile accounts for approximately 80% of the total
primary energy consumption of the life cycle of an automobile. Most of the C02
and CO emissions are released during the utilization. Besides the resource
consumption when running a vehicle and the necessary infrastructure (e.g.
highways, service- and gas stations), the maintenance and service operations
contribute significantly to the environmental effects of automobile use.

Opportunities for environmental
improvement exist during each life-cycle stage of

an automobile. Significant changes in the
material and process selection and management are necessary to reduce the
overall environmental impact throughout the entire life cycle of an automobile.

Unit

Transport system of the USA.

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

The development of transport
facilities was very important in the growth of the United States. The first
travel routes were natural waterways. No surfaced roads existed until the
1790s, when the first turnpikes were built. Besides the overland roads, many
canals were constructed between the late 18th century and 1850 to link
navigable rivers and lakes in the eastern United States and in the Great
Lakes region. Steam railways began to appear in the East in the 1820s. The
first transcontinental railway was constructed between 1862 and 1869 by the
Union Pacific and Central Pacific companies, both of which received large
subsidies from the federal government. Transcontinental railways were the chief
means of transport used by European settlers who populated the West in the
latter part of the 19th century. The railways continued to expand until 1917,
when their length reached a peak of about 407,000
km. Since then motor transport became a serious competitor to the railway both
for passengers and freight.

Air transport began to
compete with other modes of transport after World War I. Passenger service
began to gain importance in 1920s, but not until the beginning of commercial
jet craft after World War II did air transport become a leading mode of travel.

During the early 1990s
railways annually handled about 37,5 per cent of the total freight traffic;
trucks carried 26 per cent of the freight, and oil pipelines conveyed 20 per
cent. Approximately 16 per cent was shipped on inland waterways. Although the
freight handled by airlines amounted to only 0,4 per cent of the total, much of
the cargo consisted of high-priority or high-value items.

Trucks in Canada.

Trucks are very versatile and
are now more widely used for transporting logs

and all other forest products than any
other primary transportation means. Many large

logging operations are conducted with
fleets of trucks operating over systems of

roads. Trucks are also used individually or
in small fleets. Large-scale trucking

operations for transporting forest products
from the forest to the mill, railroad loading

point, waterway, or other destination must
be organized and operated with the same

skill as a railroad operation. The
long-distance hauling of sawlogs and pulpwood by

truck and trailer is the dominant
transportation method in the logging industry today.

Trucks are used year-round both
North and South and from the smallest job to

the largest operations in the biggest
timber. Their maneuverability, improved

strength, increased power, and increased
transmission flexibility have promoted the

greater use of trucks in all logging
regions. Both gasoline and diesel trucks are used.

The effectiveness of any truck
haul depends in large part on the road system and

the standards used in its construction and
maintenance. Public highways are used

when available and when load limits permit,
but in many cases special truck roads

must be constructed.

In Eastern Canada the first
recorded use of trucks as hauling units was in early

1930s. The trucks pulled sleigh trains over
rutted ice roads; the sleighs were loaded

with either pulpwood or saw logs. This type
of truck-hauling operation has now disappeared.

Trucks carrying body loads or
pulling various wheeled-trailer combination

started in Eastern Canada in 1940s and now
constitute the main if not the sole method

of land transport for most woods
operations.

Several interrelated factors
have been responsible for the Increased use of trucks

on woods operations. Improvements in the
ground skidding. One tractor has a winch.

Each tractor has one man in the woods to
hook onto the logs. The tractors skid the

logs to different landings, according to
whether they are hardwood or pine. Four men

work at the landing. They use another log
loader to put the logs onto the trucks.

Logs are hauled 24 hours a day, year round
using three diesel trucks with extra trailers.

MOTOR TRUCKS

А. The
motor truck has been greatly improved in power, efficiency, and size, and, with
better and more frequent hard-surfaced roads, it has become the most important
means of major log transportation. The truck was first used for logging in the
Douglas fir region where it has replaced logging railroads. It is extensively
used in the pine forests of the West and South and, to an increasing degree, in
all forest regions of the United States and Canada. It has widely supplanted
the logging railroad, chutes, flumes, stream driving, sled hauling, and of her
methods.

There has been an increasing
trend toward motor-truck transportation in logging throughout the country since
1945 as a result of the development of inexpensive, light, powerful,
pneumatic-tired trucks and detached trailers, the latter being easily loaded
and unloaded, and the former capable of travelling 30 to 40
m. p. h. or more on the «go back». The motor truck is frequently used to
transport logs directly from the felling areas to the sawmill or other
destination, thus partially or completely eliminating the skidding or
assembling operations ordinarily necessary in general logging procedure. This
is notably so in the southern pine and the ponderosa pine forests in the West,
especially in Oregon and the Southwest. Trucks are frequently equipped with a
winch to draw logs to the truck and load them when it is impracticable to drive
directly to the logs. The winches powered by the truck engine are thus used for
skidding logs short distances.

В. Motor
trucks are used chiefly to replace wagons, standard-gage railroads, and the
various forms of animal haul, and have been successfully operated under
conditions where tractors and power skidding have been used. They have
especially replaced spur and main-line railroads in the South and the Pacific
Coast, and also chutes and flumes, and have reduced skidding distances as in
the western white and ponderosa pine types of the West. They are widely used in
regions of second growth timber such as the Southeast, the Lake
States, and the Northeast, where small sawmills often depend on the open log
market, purchasing logs as needed. Thus, many mills are entirely or partially
independent of reserve timber holdings as the motor trucks offer a wide
flexibility in source of log- supplies. This flexibility means that trucks may
be widely used in connection with selective logging. In eastern and southern
logging for small mills, the same crew is frequently employed in felling,
skidding, and trucking logs as well as in sawmill operations.

С. Many
states have legal restrictions which limit the weight and size of logs carried
over public highways. These restrictions may be left to the state highway commission
or similar agencies, or they may be matters of legislative enactment, specifying
the length, width, height, and weight of loads and size of logs transported over
roads constructed at public expense. Many regulations of this; kind are now in the
process of enactment, and changes are being constantly made. Fees for
motortruck licenses are based generally on the weight of the truck; they vary
widely among the various states and in Canada. In the Northwest, some operators
find it more economical to build their own roads for trucking logs rather than
use the public highways.

Motor trucks are used in
connection with every other type of logging. Jeeps, which were developed during
the last war for so many purposes are even used to skid logs, especially on
small wood-lot jobs.

Inventors and their Inventions

1.Прочитайте и переведите текст.

Charles Rolls was born in 1881
in Great Britain. He died in 1910. He was an aristocrat
and a businessman . He was especially interested in cars. Once he met another enthusiast of cars Henry Royce. Henry Royce was a famous car
engineer. They decided to design the most comfortable and reliable car. At the
beginning of the 20r century it seemed to be a fantasy . But they worked hard
and at last in 1907 they created the world famous Rolls-Royce car. It
was so comfortable and reliable that one of the models of Rolls-Royce cars
«Silver Ghost» hadn’t changed greatly for 20 years since 1907.

Gotlif Daimler and Charles Benz were two
inventors. They lived in Germany. They were both interested in car production.
At the end of the 19t h century each of them designed a car. At the same time
they organized two independent firms to produce them.

All the cars produced by the firm of
Daimler were called «Mercedes». Mercedes was a daughter’ s name of
one of the stockholders of the firm . This man saved the firm of Daimler — from
the financial crisis at the beginning of the 20 » century. But after the

World War I the firm of Daimler met financial
difficulties again. This time it had to join

the firm of Benz. Since that time all the cars
produced by the firm «Daimler-Benz» have

been — called
«Mercedes—Benz«.

bonnet – капот

2. Прочитайте и переведите
текст.

The Tatra backbone type
chassis, with all six wheels driven, was shown for the first, time at Brussels although, of course, it is not new. The four rear wheels each have twin type
equipment and single types are employed at the front. An air-cooled, V-12
engine is installed under the bonnet. This engine was first introduced over 20 years
ago. The cylinders have a bore and stroke of 110
mm and 130 mm respectively, giving a swept volume of 14.825
litres. They are set at an including angle of 75 deg.

         The gearbox and engine are mounted above
the large diameter tube that forms the backbone and the two-speed transfer box
forms part of the backbone component. The drive is transmitted both forwards
and to the rear by propeller shafts inside the tube. A

transmission brake is fitted to the rear
end of the back axle casting. All four rear wheels are mounted tin stub axle
assemblies secured to the ends of semi-elliptic springs.

The front suspension is
different, in that each side is supported by a quarter elliptic

spring, these springs are clamped to the
central backbone, adjacent to the

cross members that supports the front end
of the body frame.

An unconventional steering gear
arrangement has been adopted. The steering

box is mounted on the cross member that
supports the body frame. Its drop arm is

connected by a link to a centrally pivoted
lever that straddles the backbone tube. Each

end of this lever is connected by a
steering rod to the adjacent wheel assembly, which

is well forward of it.

The Buses

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

The bus is ideal for short hops (a cheap fare for short journeys
on most bus routes). The top of a double-decker has been hailed as one of the
best ways to see the city centre. Most London buses are red, some are in
different colors, but they will display the sign: ‘London Transport’.

The famous red buses offer extensive services throughout the
capital and there is a frequent and reliable privately-run sightseeing service.

With 17,000 bus stops all over London, you are rarely more than a
minute walk from one. You can board at two types of bus stops:

compulsory – buses will automatically stop, unless they are full,

request – buses will only stop if you put out your arm in good time.

When you board a bus, take a seat if one is available or hold on
tight.

You pay the bus driver (or conductor) or show a Travel card. Busses
have a similar fare system to the Underground.

When you want to leave the bus ring the bell once, unless a ‘bus
stopping’ sign is lit. Buses offer a friendly, personal and safe service;
nearly all vehicles have video cameras on board. All buses are No Smoking.
Never get on or off an open platform bus except at a bus stop and always wait
until the bus has stopped. Be careful when crossing the road as buses sometimes
travel in special road lanes against the traffic flow.

Special ‘N’ numbered Night Buses run through the night – some
follow daytime routes, others have their own routes. Fares are slightly higher
than on day buses and you cannot use a One Day Travel card, LT Card or One Day
Bus Pass. There are no child fares on Night Buses (or any bus after 22:00). All
Night Buses pass through Trafalgar Square and serve theatres, cinemas and
entertainment areas.

London Buses

There are two main kinds of buses in London: the red double-decker
and the red single-decker. There are a large number of routes in London. The main places the bus goes to are shown on the front of the bus.

Some double-deckers in London have
automatic doors, and you pay the driver when you go in. On the single-deckers
you buy your ticket  from a machine in the bus. These buses travel between the
main stations and stop at fewer stops than the double-deckers. But most London buses have a conductor who will come round and collect fares.

You can get a bus map of London at most   underground stations.
This map shows the routes for all the buses. But you’ll have to find the bus
stop yourself and remember to look for the number of the bus on the post at the
bus stop. You must do so because in a busy street there may be four or five bus
stops close together.

Double-deckers have seats for 65 people. Only 5 people are allowed
to stand when the seats are full. So the conductor may stop you getting on the
bus if there are five passengers already standing.

Travelling by road can be the
most convenient way to transport your belongings, as you can take them right to
your door. However, parking and unloading may be difficult. If you are using a
removal company, the local council will allow loading and unloading to take
place and even cordon off an area for you, providing they have been notified.
Some councils make a charge for this service, some don’t.

Most of central London
has permit parking for residents only – which as a resident you will be
grateful for. However, that means there are limited places to park and parking
meters only allow parking for a maximum of four hours at a time. If you park
illegally you will be towed away or camped and it is very expensive and
time-consuming to get your vehicle back.

Unit 15

The History of
transportation

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

The history of transportation is
connected to industrialization, urbanization, and the separation of residence
from workplace. By the beginning of the 20th century, London, New York, Boston,
Paris, Budapest, and other major cities had fixed-rail subway systems. By the
1920s buses were common there. In the United States, the quantity of passengers
grew steadily from 1900 (six billion passengers per year) to 1927 (over 17
billion), but it fell during the Great Depression. Then it grew again during
War II, peaking in 1946 at 23 billion riders, but then dropped steadily every
year until the early 1970s due to the revival of public transport.

The total number of riders in 1970
was less than that of 1910. The reasons for these declines are complex and
often political. Los Angeles, for example, had over 1,000
miles of trolley and interurban lines before 1930. This system was taken over
by a private company and replaced with noisy, polluting, and comparatively slow
buses. But few people chose to use them. That’s why costs rose and the number
of passengers was falling. To reduce costs, private companies removed distant
branches and smaller stations. These changes, along with cheap gasoline,
suburban and highway development, bad condition of older subway lines, and the
greater amount of cars offered, helped turn the United States into a car
culture.

The people have grown increasingly
concerned over the impact of cars on the environment and the quality of life in
urban areas. But at this time more efficient and comfortable mass transit
systems are developing. Models for such systems were developed in Europe and Japan. Trains in the Paris Metro, for example, operate on rubber tires and can reach speeds
of 77 km. In Canada engineers built more lightweight trains that can reach
speeds of 72 km.

In the United States by 1990 over
90% of North American mass transit was publicly owned and managed. Washington, D.C.’s Metro system (144 million riders in 1988) included a wider area of
service and more efficient schedules. Currently buses account for 60% of mass
transit rides in the United States. Innovations such as articulated buses and
reserved lanes on highways are balanced by the problems of noise, air pollution, and traffic. Now mass transit is a central social and
political issue.

Development of automobile
undustry in Russia.

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

Before World War I Russia
produced automobiles at Machine building works in Moscow, Petersburg, Riga
and Orel. In 1924 the first Russian trucks – ten AMO – F – 15 came off the
assembly lines and took part in the holiday parade on the Red Square in Moscow.

In 1932
in Nizhni-Novgorod new Motor Works appeared which planned to manufacture at
least 150 000 vehicles a year. The Moscow Automobile Works underwent
reconstruction and began to turn out up to 25 000 automobiles.

Five years later in 1937 Russia
was the first in Europe and the second in the world (after USA)
in the production of trucks. At the Gorky, Moscow and Yaroslavl Works trucks,
buses and special service cars of all types came off the accembly lines as well
as passenger cars-big, medium and comfort. Automobile industry played a great
role in wartime when it supplied the army with different kinds of vehicles.

After the Great Patriotic War Russia
not only reached but surpassed the pre-war level in automobile industry in 1949.

In 1965 the industry entered a
new period of rapid development. The tempo of automobile production will
increase considerably in the nearest future. We expect essential progress in
the output of cars and in the improvement of their design qualities.

Henry
Ford (1863-1947)

I will build a car for the great multitude

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

Automobile manufacturer Henry Ford was born July 30, 1863, on his
family’s farm in Dearborn, Michigan. From the time he was a young boy, Ford enjoyed
tinkering with machines. Farm work and a job in a Detroit machine shop afforded
him ample opportunities to experiment. He later worked as a part-time employee
for the Westinghouse Engine Company. By 1896, Ford had constructed his first
horseless carriage which he sold in order to finance work on an improved model.

      Ford incorporated the Ford Motor Company in
1903, proclaiming, «I will build a car for the great multitude.» In
October 1908, he did so, offering the Model T for $950. In the Model T’s
nineteen years of production, its price dipped as low as $280. Nearly
15,500,000 were sold in the United States alone. The Model T heralds the
beginning of the Motor Age; the car evolved from luxury item for the well-to-do
to essential transportation for the ordinary man.

Ford revolutionized
manufacturing. By 1914, his Highland Park, Michigan plant, using innovative
production techniques, could turn out a complete chassis every 93 minutes. This
was a stunning improvement over the earlier production time of 728 minutes.
Using a constantly-moving assembly line, subdivision of labor, and careful
coordination of operations, Ford realized huge gains in productivity.

In 1914, Ford began
paying his employees five dollars a day, nearly doubling the wages offered by
other manufacturers. He cut the workday from nine to eight hours in order to convert
the factory to a three-shift workday. Ford’s mass-production techniques would
eventually allow for the manufacture of a Model T every 24 seconds. His
innovations made him an international celebrity.

Ford’s affordable Model T irrevocably altered American
society. As more Americans owned cars, urbanization patterns changed. The United States saw the growth of suburbia, the creation of a national highway system, and a
population entranced with the possibility of going anywhere anytime. Ford
witnessed many of these changes during his lifetime, all the while personally
longing for the agrarian lifestyle of his youth. In the years prior to his
death on April 7, 1947, Ford sponsored the restoration of an idyllic rural town
called Greenfield Village.

2. Прочитайте и переведите текст

Frederick William Lanchester, (23 October 1868 – 8
March 1946) was an English polymath and engineer who made important contributions to automotive engineering, aerodynamics and co-invented the field of operations
research.

He was also a
pioneer British motor car builder, a hobby he eventually turned into a
successful car company, and is considered one of the «big three»
English car engineers, the others being Harry Ricardo and Henry Royce.

Biography

Lanchester was born at Lewisham, London to Henry Jones Lanchester, an architect,
and his wife Octavia, a tutor. He was the fourth of eight children. When he was
a year old, his father moved the family to Brighton, and young Frederick attended a
preparatory school and a nearby boarding school, where he did not distinguish
himself. He himself, looking back remarked that, «it seemed that Nature
was conserving his energy». However, he did succeed in winning a
scholarship to the Hartley Institution, in Southampton,
and after three years won another scholarship, to, what is now, part of Imperial College, Kensington. He supplemented his instruction in
applied engineering by attending evening classes at Finsbury Technical School. Unfortunately, he ended his education without having obtained
a formal qualification.

When he completed his education in 1888, he took a job
as a Patent Office draughtsman for £3 a week. About this time he
took out a patent for an isometrograph, a draughtsman’s instrument for hatching, shading and
other geometrical design work.

In 1919, at the age of fifty-one, Lanchester married
Dorothea Cooper, the daughter of Thomas Cooper, the vicar of St Peter’s Church
at Field Broughton in Lancashire. The couple moved to 41 Bedford Square, London, but in 1924 Lanchester built a house to his own design (Dyott End) in Oxford
Road, Moseley. The couple remained there for the rest of
their life together but had no children.

He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1922, and in 1926 the Royal Aeronautical Society awarded him a fellowship and a gold medal.

In 1925 Lanchester founded a company called Lanchester
Laboratories Ltd. This was to carry out industrial research and development
work. Although he developed an improved radio and gramophone speaker, he was
unable to market it successfully because of the recession. He carried on,
overworking, until in 1934 his health failed and the firm was forced to close.
He was eventually diagnosed withParkinson’s disease and was reportedly much grieved that this,
along with cataracts in both eyes, prevented him from «doing any official
job» during the Second World War.

He was awarded gold medals by the Institution of Civil Engineers in 1941 and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers in 1945.

Although he achieved his fame through his creative
brilliance as an engineer, Frederick Lanchester was a man of diverse interests,
blessed with a fine singing voice. Under the pseudonym of Paul
Netherton-Herries he published two volumes of poetry.

Lanchester, who had never been commercially
successful, lived out the rest of his life in straitened, and it was only
through charitable help that he was able to remain in his home. He died at his
home, Dyott End, on 8 March 1946.

Travelling
in London

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

London is a city full of sights, history and atmosphere. There are
plenty of places to go. Wherever you are you’ll find a bus and underground
nearby. So you can reach any part of London easily and enjoy the ride. There
are handy leaflets with maps and information to plan your journeys. If you need
further information, 24-hour personal travel information by telephone is
provided.

The wide choice of public transport includes bus, underground
(tube), British Railway (BR) and Docklands Light Railway (DLR). Most of South London relies on British Rail overground services, while the redeveloped Eastern part
of the city – known as Docklands – is served by the DLR.

Getting out of the city is not straightforward because there are
more than a dozen British Rail terminals – usually grandiose Victorian
buildings – which connect the metropolis with the rest of the country, so make
sure you know your station for arrival or departure.

The main London airports are Heathrow, Gatwick, London
City Airport and Stanstead.

Heathrow is 15 miles west of London. Central London is a 45 minute journey
on the tube. Alternatively take a licensed Black Cab straight to your hotel or
the Airbus. The Airbus and the tube are much cheaper than a taxi. Tube trains
run every few minutes from early morning to late evening. It is best for people
with light luggage. Airbus is ideal if you have lots of luggage. They can be
boarded near all major hotels, rail arid coach stations and all airport
terminals. Airbuses run every 15 to 30 minutes throughout the day and are fast
and comfortable with friendly drivers who offer advice and information.
Disabled travellers are welcome.

Gatwick, 30 miles from London, is served by the Gatwick Express train,
taking 30 minutes to Victoria1 and costing £8.60 one way. Some commuter
trains go to and from Clapham Junction and London Bridge. A Greenline Coach
service connects Gatwick with Victoria in Central London, taking about 75
minutes and costing £8.90.

London City Airport is only 6
miles east of the City. The nearest rail station is Silver-town, which
connects with the tube at West Ham. Also, shuttle buses connect the airport with
Canary Wharf DLR and Liverpool Street station in the City.

Stanstead. A rail service connects this airport, 32
miles north-east of London with the City’s Liverpool Street station, taking
about 40 min (£10.80).

There are over 20,000 licensed Black Cabs in London. Every driver
has undergone a stringent test of London’s geography called The Knowledge. You
will find them a wealth of knowledge. Black Cabs can be hailed in the street
when their ‘For Hire’ sign is illuminated. Avoid unlicensed mini-cabs, especially
those touting outside stations.

How the Automobile Learned to Run

1. Прочитайте и переведите первую часть текста и
ответьте письменно на вопросы.

The automobile and the
locomotive are the cousins. They have the same grandmother, who lives in a
museum in Paris. It has a long body on three wheels, a seat in the middle and a
steam-boiler in front. It was built by a Frenchman, Nicholas Cugnot, in 1769.

         Oher engineers continued his work, producing various
strange-looking cars. One had its steam pipe in front, another at the back. One
had three wheels, another had six. These queer machines were the parents of the
locomotive and the automobile. They were just learning to go by themselves.
Some could go as fast as six or seven miles an hour. People looked in
amazement. To put a stove on wheels and expect it to take you somewhere!

In
those days people travelled from one city to another in big stage-coaches. Each
of them carried twenty passengers. The coachman sat on the top, driving a team
of horses. The postman sat beside him and blew a horn.

Then
the first steam coaches began to roll along the same dusty roads. The steam
coach had many enemies, first of all the owners of horse-drawn stage-coaches.
In Britain they got the government to help them in their war against the steam
coaches. Very strict rules for steam coaches were introduced. The war between
the two kinds of vehicles lasted thirty years. The stage-coach won.

1.     What was queer about the
parents of the automobile and the locomotive?

2.     What were the stage coaches
drawn by?

3.     Who were the enemies of the
steam coach?

2. Прочитайте вторую часть текста и
определите верны или ложны следующие утверждения.

The
steam coach had still another rival – its younger brother, the railway train.
One of the first locomotives was built in Russia by self-taught mechanics
Cherepanovs, father and son. They did it in 1834-1835. The outstanding Russian
inventors took the steam-engine off the roads and put it on rails – and they
were right. The roads in those days were very bad, and it was hard for a heavy
steam coach to move upon them. The engine often got damaged. Other engineers
tried to build stronger engines, but could only make them heavier, which was
still worse. And what a load of coal it took to draw such a heavy vehicle over
a bad road! It was different however, when the machine was put on rails. The
engine could be much lighter and it needed less coal, so did not cost so much
to run.

The
first railway was built by George Stephenson between Stockton and Darlington in
England. The new invention seemed to put an end to the steam coach. But
suddenly the highway locomotive, the old steam coach, blew its horn again. It
raced along the roads at an unheard-of speed, leaving the coach horses far
behind. How did this happen? The steam coach had stopped using steam. In 1886
Daimler and Benz, two German inventors, built a petrol engine. Have you ever
come across the picture of the first automobile? If you look at it again, you
will see how light and simple the fire cart has become. Of course, the motor of
the first car is still weak; it is only one and a half horsepower. And when the
automobile moves, it snakes and jolts its passengers very hard, much harder
than a horse-drawn carriage.

1.     The railway train was invented
before the steam coach. (     )

2.     The first steam coach moved
upon bad roads. (     )

3.     Those steam engines that were
put on rails needed a lot of coal to draw them.()

4.     The first railway was built by
Stephenson in Germany. (     )

5.     The inventors of the first
petrol engine were from England. (     )

6.     The first automobile was far
from being comfortable. (     )

3.Прочитайте третью часть текста и
выберите правильный вариант ответа. Заполните теблицу.

How
to stop the terrible jolting? The roads could be made smooth by laying floors
over them, or pillows could be attached to the car’s wheels.

Both
of these things have been done. An asphalt pavement has been laid over the road
like a smooth floor, and the wooden wheels have been replaced by rubber tyres
filled with air. Motorcars have been constructed employing two, three and even
four hundred horsepower engine. Today there are racing cars with as much as a
thousand horsepower. The old stage-coaches have been forgotten. Even the
railway can’t keep up with the automobile. The trains can run only on rails.
But the automobile needs no rails. It can go anywhere. We now have cars that
can run on ploughed fields, climb steep hills and even cross rivers and seas.
The network of automobile highways has been greatly enlarged too.

A
modern automobile is very beautiful. It has nothing unnecessary sticking out on
it. It is streamlined – straight and smooth like an arrow. How comfortable and
strong it is!  Faster than a train and it can carry huge loads. It takes us out
of town on a week-end, and it helps us build giant power-stations.

In
the beginning automobile looked like a locomotive. Then it looked like a
horse-drawn cab. Now it does not look like anything else. It looks like what it
is – an automobile.

Components of the
Automobile

The automobile is made up of three basic parts: the
power plant, or the engine, the chassis and the body.

The engine is the source of power that
makes the wheels rotate and the car move. It includes fuel, cooling,
lubricating and electric systems. Most automobile engines have six or eight
cylinders.

The chassis includes a power train (power
transmission), a run­ning gear, steering and braking systems as well.

The power train carries the power from the
engine to the car wheels.

The power transmission, in turn, contains
the clutch, gearbox, propeller or cardan shaft, final drive, differential, rear
axle and axle shafts. The running gear consists of a frame with axles, wheels
and springs.

The body has a hood, fenders and
accessories: the heater, stereo tape recorder, windshield wipers, conditioner,
speedometer and so on.

THE ENGINE

1.The engine is the source of power that
makes the car move. It is usually called an internal combustion engine because
gasoline is burned within its cylinders or combustion chambers. Most automobile
engines have six or eight cylinders.

2.The operating cycle of the four-stroke
engine that takes place in the engine cylinder can be divided into four
strokes. The upper limit of the piston movement is called the top dead centre.
The lower limit of piston movement is called the bottom dead centre. A stroke
is the piston movement from the top dead centre to the bottom dead centre or
from bottom dead centre to the top dead centre. In other words, the piston the
completes a stroke each time it changes the direction of its motion.

3.Where the entire cycle of events in the
cylinder requires four strokes (two crankshaft revolutions), the engine is
called a four-stroke cycle engine. The four strokes are: intake, compression,
power and exhaust.

4.Two-cycle engines have also been made, and
in such engines the entire cycle of events is completed in two strokes or one
revolution of the crankshaft.

5.On the intake stroke the intake valve is
opened. The mixture of air      and vaporized gasoline is delivered into the
cylinder through the inlet valve. On the compression stroke the inlet valve is
closed so that the mixture can be compressed. On the power stroke both valves
(inlet and exhaust) are closed in order to raise pressure during the mixture
combustion. On the exhaust stroke the exhaust valve is opened to exhaust the
residual gas.

16 — Valve Technology Part 1 Engines with four valves per cylinder have long been used to power rally and competition cars including Saab cars. But the Saab 16-valve engine is not a competition engine designed for the highest possible performance within a narrow range of engine speeds. On the contrary, it is an everyday «workhorse», with good low-speed performance, and has been optimised for the best possible economy, durability and reliability. Most car manufacturers are developing engines with four valves per cylinder, and this design will probably dominate in the future. But Saab has already accumulated several years of experience in the production of such engines, for economical

16 — ти клапанная технология Часть I Двигатели с 4-мя клапанами в каждом цилиндре уже давно получили применение на гоночных и спортивных моделях, включая Сааб. Однако 16-ти клапанный двигатель Сааб не является двигателем для спортивных моделей. Предназначенным для максимальной эксплуатации в условиях узкого диапазона оборотов двигателя. Напротив, это скорее ординарная «рабочая лошадь» с хорошими низкоскоростными характеристиками, высоким уровнем экономии, прочности и надежности. Большинство автопроизводителей выпускают двигатели с 4-мя клапанами на каждый цилиндр и, возможно, эта конструкция и будет доминировать в будущем. Сааб имеет многолетний приоритет.

Accidents to people in
industrial enterprises are called industrial traumatism (injury). They occur
when workers have not acquired the requisite for skill and lack the necessary
experience in handling tools and equipment. Accidents are also caused through
neglect of safety rules and regulations in the factories and training
workshops.

The purpose of safety
engineering is to prevent acci­dents and to create such conditions of work in

Cars: passion or problems.

         For some people, the car is a convenient
form of transportation. But for others,

the car is an exciting hobby. Some people spend their
lives collecting valuable cars.

Others drive them in races, including the M i l l e
Miglia in Italy, the Carrera Panamericana in Mexico, and the world-famous Indianapolis 500. For many people, cars are more than transportation. They are a source of
passion and pleasure. Yet cars can also be a source of many problems.

In 1903, Henry Ford began selling the Model
T car for $825. His company,

Ford Motors, was the first to produce cars in large
numbers. This made the car available

to large numbers of people and helped them to travel
long distances quickly and

easily. The car has brought people much closer to
places of work, study and entertainment.

Many people also work in car-related
industries: fixing cars, washing cars, advertising

cars and selling car products such as stereos and
cellular phones.

Most Americans buy a new car every five or
six years. This means that one

American may own a dozen cars in a lifetime. In fact,
there are more cars than people

in the United Slates. In New York City, 2.5 million
cars move in and out of the city

each day. In this traffic, the average speed is
sometimes 8.1 miles per hour. This

speed could easily be reached by riding a horse
instead of driving a car. But New

Yorkers continue to drive, just as people do in California, where freeways are often

very crowded.

Some environmentalists believe that forms
of public transportation such as buses and trains have not been fully developed
in the United States. They try to teach others that public transportation saves
fuel and helps to protect the environment. Many people are unhappy with car
traffic and pollution, as well as with the use of beautiful land for building
new roads. One environmentalist, Jan Lundberg, left his Mercedes-Benz in Los Angeles and moved to the forests of northern California. There he works on the
Auto-Free Times, a newspaper that teaches people how to live without driving.
Lundberg travels on foot, on bicycle, or by bus. Before he decided to live without
a car, Lundberg worked for the oil companies, studying the prices of gasoline.

Lundberg and other environmentalists dream
of turning parking lots into parks and replacing cars with bicycles, but most
people around the world believe that the car is a necessary part of life in
today’s world. Still, there is an important question that must be answered:
What kind of fuel will we use when gasoline is no longer available? Lundberg
believes that by the 2021, there will no longer be oil for gasoline makers to
use. To solve this problem, car companies in Korea, Japan, Europe, and the United
Stales are trying to develop an electric car that will not require gasoline at
all. The electric car is not a new idea. It had success with American women in
the early 1900s.

Women liked electric cars because they were
quiet and did not pollute the air. Electric cars were also easier to start than
gasoline-powered ones. But gasoline powered cars were faster, and in the 1920s
they became much more popular. The electric car was not used again until the
1970s, when there were serious problems with the availability of oil. Car
companies began to plan for a future without gasoline. The General Motors
Company had plans to develop an electric car by 1980; however, oil became
available again, and this car was never produced. Today there is a new interest
in the electric car, which is partly related to a passion for speed and new technology.
In 1977, engineer Paul MacCready, designed a human-powered airplane that
successfully completed a three-mile flight. A similar airplane crossed the English Channel in 1977, followed by a solar-powered airplane.

In 1987, the Sunraycer, a solar-powered
car, won a 2,000-mile race in Australia. As a

result of this success, the General Motors Company
began new work on the development of the electric car. The Toyota Company
recently decided to spend $800 million a year on the development of new car technology.
Many engineers believe that the electric car will lead to other forms of
technology being used for transportation.

Cars may change, but their importance will not. Cars
are important to nearly

everyone, including engineers, businesspeople, environmentalists,
and even poets.

Poet Curt Brown believes that cars are part of our
passion for new places and new

experiences. According to Brown, this «very, very
comfortable flying chair» will continue to bring us travel and adventure,
no matter how it changes in the future.

ASSEMBLING

First, the parts are delivered
by truck or rail to the delivery area of the car assembly plant. From
here, some parts are taken to the body shop, and other parts are transported to
the chassis line. The parts are carried  around  the  plant  by  forklift  (автопогрузчик с вилочным захватом) trucks or conveyor belts.

In the body shop, the panels are
welded to the frame to form the body of the car. This is done by more than 400
robots.

Then the body is taken to the
paint shop. Here it is cleaned and  painted by robots. After this, the body is
checked by human workers  to look for faults.

Next, the painted body moves
along a conveyor belt to the trim line  (внутренняя
отделка)  and  many  parts  are  added  to  it. 
For example, the instrument panel, the air conditioning system, the heating
system and the electrical wiring are all installed here. The windscreen is
inserted by robots using laser guides.

Meanwhile,  in  the  chassis 
line,  components  are  added  to  the chassis.  First,  the  chassis  is 
turned  upside  down,  to  make  the  work easier.  Then  the  fuel  system, 
the  transmission,  the  suspension,  the exhaust system, the axles and the
drive shaft are all installed. Next the chassis  is  turned  over  (rightside 
up).  The  engine  is  lowered  into  the chassis and connected to it.

Now the chassis and the body
move simultaneously to the final assembly  line.  Here  the  body  is 
attached  to  the  chassis,  and  all  the final parts are added. The tyres and
the radiator are added here. The hoses  are  connected,  and  the  radiator 
and  air conditioner  are  filled with fluid. The car’s central computer is
also installed here.Lastly, the finished car and all electrical systems are
tested. The car is filled with fuel and the engine is started for the first
time. The car  is  put  on  special  rollers  to  test  the  engine  and  the 
wheels.  If  it passes the test, the car is finally driven out of the assembly
plant.

KAMAZ

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

KAMAZ

KAMAZ was established in 1969 as Kama Complex of
Plants to produce heavy-duty trucks (Production Association KAMAZ). In 1990, PA
KAMAZ was reorganized into a joint-stock company.

The first vehicle came off the mother gathering conveyor on
February 16, 1976. Since then, over 1.9 million vehicles and about 2.6 million
engines have been produced. Each second truck of 14-40 t GVW used in Russia
and the CIS countries is KAMAZ. Each fourth truck produced is exported from Russia. KAMAZ vehicles are used in more than 80 countries.

Company
Brief History

In 1969, the Central Committee
of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the USSR Council of Ministers
issued a decree on construction of a complex of plants to produce heavy-duty
trucks. 70 variants of its location were considered. The city of Naberezhnye Chelny, then a small town on the Kama river, was chosen among them. Its
advantages were obvious. Naberezhnye Chelny was located in the very center of
the former USSR. Navigable rivers – the Kama and the Volga, proximity to a
railway enabled to supply the construction site with building and raw
materials, equipment, components, and later to deliver trucks to customers. And
KamGESenergostroy – the largest construction organization in the region – built
a dam and a hydroelectric power plant generating about 1.5 million kWh of
power, constructed factory buildings and houses for future auto makers.

Workers and specialists of 70
ethnic origins from all corners of the USSR assembled at the construction site
in Naberezhnye Chelny. Over 2,000 enterprises, all central authorities of
Gossnab of the USSR, ministries and agencies supplied KAMAZ with construction
materials and equipment. More than 100 thousand people worked at the
construction site. The future auto plant was supplied with the most up-to-date
process equipment of that time. It received equipment from more than 700
foreign companies including world-known corporations, namely Swindell-Dressler,
Holcroft, Seacast, Ingersroll Rand from the USA; Busch, Hüller, Liebherr
from Germany; Italy’s Morando, Excella, Fata; Renault from France; Sweden’s
Sandvik; Japan’s Komatsu and Hitachi. KAMAZ was constructed on empty fields
among hills. The builders had to dump and deliver millions of cubic meters of
earth in order to smooth out the roughness of the country and do oversite
excavation.

On December 13, 1969, the
first bucket of earth was dug out at the building site of the Kama auto plant
which was intended for production of 150 thousand heavy-duty trucks and 250
thousand engines a year. The complex of plants on the Kama covered a wide
territory of 22 square miles. While the automobile plant was being built,
burning communal problems were being solved. KAMAZ provided thousands of people
living in barracks and communal flats with comfortable houses, modern
educational and medical institutions, kindergartens, numerous centers of
culture, sport, recreation and entertainment. Thanks to KAMAZ, an industrial
and scientific center and a developed infrastructure of the suburban
agricultural zone were created in Prikamye.

The city’s population annually
grew by 30-40 thousand people. Whereas only 27 thousand people had lived in
Naberezhnye Chelny before the construction of KAMAZ started, by the mid of the
90-ies over 530 thousand people lived in the city where all necessary
facilities were offered.

KAMAZ Today

Basic
Facts

KAMAZ Group is the largest
automobile corporation of the Russian Federation. OJSC KAMAZ ranks 16th among
the world’s top heavy truck manufacturers.

On August 16, 1969 the first
stone was laid. The construction of the Kama Automobile Plant was started.

On February 16, 1976 the first
KAMAZ truck rolled off the main assembly line of the automobile plant.

In 1988, the main assembly
line of the automobile plant produced the one millionth vehicle since the
beginning of production.

In January 2008, KAMAZ
produced the 1.9-millionth vehicle since the beginning of production.

On February 15, 2012 KAMAZ
produced the two millionth vehicle.

Since the launch of
production, more than 2 million 50 thousand vehicles have been assembled at the
Automobile Plant of KAMAZ by the end of the third quarter of 2012.

In February 2008, the
2.5-millionth engine came off the mother assembly line of KAMAZ-Diesel Inc.
Since the launch of production, over 2 million 720 thousand engines and power
units have been manufactured by the end of the third quarter of 2012.

The authorized capital of
KAMAZ makes up RUB 35.36 billion. The largest shareholdings belong to the state
and commercial banks.

The single production complex
of KAMAZ Group embraces the whole technological cycle of truck production –
from development, production, assembly of vehicles and auto components to
marketing of finished products and service maintenance.

The group of the process chain
includes 12 large automobile plants. The following enterprises are located in
Naberezhnye Chelny: Metallurgical Complex (a foundry and a forge plant), Engine
Plant, Press and Stamping Plant, Automobile Plant, Repair Instrument Plant,
Industial Park Master, and Remdiesel. The largest associated companies outside
Naberezhnye Chelny are JSC “Neftekamsk Automobile Plant” and OAO “Tuimazinskiy
Zavod Avtobetonovozov” (the Republic of Bashkortostan), Trailer KAMAZ Inc. (Stavropol).

To date, KAMAZ Group includes
over 150 organizations located in Russia, the CIS and the far abroad.

About 55 thousand people work
in departments and associated companies of OJSC KAMAZ.

Proceeds from sales of
marketable products and non-industrial services of KAMAZ Group for 11 months of
2011 made RUB 91.2 billion.

In 2011, KAMAZ Group
manufactured nearly 45,200 trucks, 39 thousand units of which were sold on the
Russian market. Also, KAMAZ took 38% in the segment of trucks with GVW of over
16 t and 15% in the segment of 8-16 t GVW vehicles of the Russian truck market.
KAMAZ became the absolute leader in the class of heavy trucks in Ukraine,
Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, and a number of other countries. During
2011 the company produced spare parts to the tune of over 6 billion roubles and
other products for the sum of more than 9 billion roubles.

Production

OJSC KAMAZ produces a wide
range of vehicles: trucks (over 40 models, more than 1,500 kits, right-hand
vehicles), trailers, buses, tractors, engines, power units, and different
tools. KAMAZ traditionally positions itself on the market of trucks of 14-40 t
GVW. For the last years, the range of the company’s production has considerably
increased. The manufacture of medium tonnage vehicles was mastered, the line-up
of high payload vehicles was extended.

Previously, technical
specifications of vehicles were improved and their customer appeal was enhanced
– both due to the use of automobile components made by the leading producers,
and the implementation of KAMAZ’s own original developments. All these measures
enabled the company to create the so-called “model range 2010”
on which the company’s production program will be based till 2014 when KAMAZ
plans to create a brand new model range of its vehicles. In 2012, when Russia adopts technical regulations compliant with Euro-4 international standards, KAMAZ
vehicles will have engines meeting this environmental standard.

The average car is made of a large number
of different materials,  as the pie chart here shows. Steel makes up by far the
single largest  percentage  of  materials,  accounting  for  55%  of  the  car 
materials  by  weight. Then comes iron, with 13%. Plastics make up 10% of the
car, although  this  percentage  is  naturally  increasing  all  the  time  as 
car makers try to make vehicles lighter.

Aluminium accounts for 5% of the materials,
although some cars contain much more. Some manufacturers are switching from
steel to aluminium  to  save  weight,  because  aliminium’s  so  light.  And 
new alloys  mean  that  aluminium  is  now  about  as  rigid  as  steel. 
Another advantage is that it’s corrosion-resistant. It’s going to be
interesting to see if the popularity of aluminium continues to increase in the
future.

Returning  to my chart,  you  see  that rubber 
accounts  for 5% of the  weight,  and  fluids  and  lubricants  make  up  4%. 
Zink,  lead,  and copper  together accounts  for  3%,  and  glass  makes  up 
2%.  All  the other  materials,  including  things  like  fabrics  and 
ceramics,  make  up the final 3% together.

Aluminium – the car maker’s metal of the
year?

With the launch of the A2, Audi AG
introduced the first vehicle in  the  world  to  have  a  volume-built 
all-aluminium  body.  In  1996, series  production  of  the  A8  began.  The 
A8  is  the  luxury  limousine made of aluminium. The car combines high
strength with low weight.

At only 1,690 kilos, the A8 3.2 is the
lightest car in the luxury class. Other car makers are also starting to take
aluminium seriously. As  engines  sizes  have  increased,  cars  have  become 
more  top-heavy (неустойчивый).  Using  aluminium  for  the  bonnet 
and  front  wings helps to get a better weight distribution between front and
rear axles.

Another advantage of aluminium is that it
is cheaper to recycle than steel.  This will be an important consideration in
the future when the EU introduces tougher recycling regulations.

But  there  are  drawbacks  to  using 
aluminium.  Replacing  steel with aluminium is expensive; an aluminium body
costs twice as much as  a  steel  one.  Not  only  are  aluminium  production 
processes expensive, they are also difficult to implement. Because aluminium is
more  brittle  and  tears  more  easily  than  steel,  it  can  only  be 
formed when  it  is  in  an  unhardened  state.  Furthermore,  the  aluminium 
used

for outer parts of the car, such as the wings and the
doors, needs to be thicker than steel because it doesn’t have the same
stiffness. The dent-resistance (сопротивление / прочность к вмятинам) of aluminium is also less than that of
steel.On  the  plus  side,  aluminium  doesn’t  rust  like  steel,  and  in 
car crashes  it  has  a  higher  energy  absorbtion  rate,  which  increases 
the car‘s active safety.

1. What are the advantages and
disadvantages of using aluminium?

2. What kind of car materials do you think
will be used in the future?

3.  What  are  the  EU’s  recycling 
targets  for  2015?  Do  you  think  car

makers will have trouble reaching them?

Chassis

Since Man is highly sensitive to even the
smallest changes in his surroundings, but has poor ability in detecting static
changes, this situation has been one of our most important starting points in
the design of the Saab 9000 chassis. It is vitally important that the car
should give the driver immediate information — through the seat and steering
wheel — on the lateral forces, for instance, acting on the car when it is
cornering. It is important for the driver to receive this information as
quickly and distinctly as possible. Information on whether or not the car is
cornering correctly, for instance, must be conveyed to the driver in a matter
of tenths or hundredths of a second. The difference between a mature chassis
and a dangerous chassis often lies in how these small, almost immeasurable
information signals are conveyed to the driver.

Many car manufacturers describe how
computerised methods are used for designing      the chassis of their cars.
Saab obviously also employes advanced computerised aids for this purpose. But
the computer alone is not enough. So we have taken a further step — we have
used Man as the ultimate aid.

Front assembly

The subframe is a vital part of
the front assembly. It carries most of the front suspension, as well as the
engine, gearbox and radiator assembly. The equipment of the subframe is
assembled separately before the entire subframe unit is fitted into the car.

The 9000 is equipped with
McPherson struts. The top mounting of the strut is secured to the body in a
conventional manner, but incorporates an end stop of special Saab desigh. The
bottom of the strut is secured directly to the steering knuckle housing. This
is a vibration-damping arrangement that improves durability. The system is
simple, robust, reliable and compact, and provides a long spring travel. The
long spring travel (8.27 in./210 mm at the rear wheels and 7.28
in./185 mm at the front) gives good contact with the road surface, even when
the car is driven fast across the brow of a hill or when it is cornering fast.
The long spring travel also contributes to a comfortable ride.

The wishbones, anti-roll bar
and other chassis components are mounted in well-matched rubber bushes. These
provide good roadnoise insulation, but are sufficiently firm to give correct
“road contact information”.

Brakes

The brake system is diagonally split into two circuits (three on
cars with ABS). Each brake circuit actuates the brakes of one front wheel and
the diagonally opposite rear wheel. The handbrake is selfadjusting and acts on
the rear wheels.

The brake lines are protected against corrosion and are run in
ventilated passages inside the car. A warning lamp in the facia lights up when
the handbrake is applied, and also if one of the brake circuits should fail or
if the brake fluid level should drop below the minimum. The hydraulic fluid
reservoir is common to the brake system and clutch, and the warning lamp thus
has a twin function. In the event of hydraulic fluid leakage, the clutch
function will be lost first, which serves as an added warning to the driver.

The brake-pad friction material is asbestos-free. Saab was one of
the first manufacturers to introduce this non-polluting friction material. This
was principally due to the favourable design of the Saab brake system — with
disc brakes all round, floating calipers, and brake discs with large effective
cooling areas. This design contributes towards keeping the brake fluid cool.

5. poor air
tightness of the pneumatic brake control.

What to do:

1. Check the
action of the foot and hand brakes and leak proofness of the brake hoses
connections, components of the hydraulic and pneumatic controls of the brakes,
as well as of the vacuum- power system.

2. Inspect the
friction linings, wheel-brake springs, master and wheel cylinders of the
hydraulic brake and the air compressor of the pneumatic brake using a test
manometer to check it.

Welding Technology

Welding is a skill used by
many trades: sheet metal workers, ironworkers, diesel mechanics, boilermakers,
carpenters, marine construction, steamfitters, glaziers, repair and maintenance
personnel in applications ranging from the sculpture home hobbyist to heavy
fabrication of bridges, ships and many other projects. A variety of welding
processes are used to join units of metal. As a welder, you may work for
shipyards, manufacturers, contractors, federal, state, county, and city
governments, firms requiring maintenance mechanics, and repair shops.

What is Welding?

         Welding is nothing more than
the art of joining metals together. By comparison, wood is joined by nails,
bricks are held together with mortar; metal is joined by welding! What makes welding
such a big deal is that the world’s infrastructure depends on it! Everything
you touch everyday that is made of metal is most likely welded in one form or
another. It is one of the most valuable technologies that played a huge part in
the industrial revolution, and is the back bone to the world’s militaries.
Welding today is comprised of three main ingredients with are required to join
metals together.

  — An
electrical power source to produce an arc.

  — Some
form of shielding to protect the weld from the air.

  — Filler
material to fill the weld joint.

 The
ways these three ingredients work together are:

 — First, the weld area needs to be
shielded from any air around it. This is important because oxygen and other
gasses in the air make welds brittle and porous.

 — Second, is the electricity to produce
an arc. An electrical arc melts metal in fractions of a second and is hot
enough to melt any known metal!

 — Finally, the filler metal is added,
which is how two pieces of metal become one.

Welding is a dynamic Industry with a 
BIG FUTURE

A clever Bronze-Age worker was thinking
outside the box one day 5,500 years ago when he came up with an inspired idea.
A great way of making things with the bronze alloys that were being developed
then, he reasoned, would be to heat them until they started melting and pound
them together with a hammer. By combining heat and pressure in this way,
craftsmen could make just about anything that required a strong metal like
bronze. 

This was the birth of welding, a process that has had
a major impact on metalworking and product engineering ever since. 

Anything made of metal, no matter how big or small, can be welded. Examples are
everywhere, from vehicles like cars, trucks and motorcycles to rail cars,
ships, aircraft, rockets and space stations. Construction is a huge market, and
skyscrapers, bridges and highways would be impossible to build without welding,
as would oil and natural-gas pipelines, offshore oil platforms, giant wind
turbines and solar panels. Welders help install and maintain boilers,
antipollution systems and other large structures, as well as piping for
industrial, commercial and residential facilities. Welding is even used by
artists to create sculptures and decorative items. 

There is almost no limit to what welding can do, especially since developments
in the technology continually improve its accuracy, quality and
versatility. Welding is, in fact, an increasingly high-tech skill. Welders
are being trained to operate robots and other automated systems that use
powerful lasers, electron beams and sometimes explosives to bond
metals. The ability to work with computers and program software is
consequently vital to the successful operation of these systems. 

Don Howard, a welding specialist at Concurrent Technologies Corp., an
engineering firm in Johnstown, Pa., estimates that 20%-25% of U.S. welding is automated and predicts this trend will grow by about 20% in the next few
years. 

“A lot of very intelligent people are coming into the welding community,” says
Howard. There is money to be made, he notes, but the industry also offers
career paths. “Welding is not just about working on a manufacturing line
anymore. Once in the industry, people know they can find a niche.” 

“These are good times to be in welding,” says Patricio Mendez, director of the Canadian
Center for Welding and Joining at the University of Edmonton in Alberta,
Canada. Mendez notes that students who like designing and building with metal
and are interested in fields such as materials engineering, robotics, lasers,
computer programming and systems integration will find plenty of career
opportunities in welding.

Many students are introduced to the process by virtual welding. This
simulation program is being developed by the Edison Welding Institute (EWI) of Columbus,
Ohio, to teach the basics of welding in classrooms. “The objective is to give
students a virtual experience that is very much like the real thing,” says John
Coffey, engineering manager at EWI. The system uses sensors that duplicate the
look and feel of welding. 

There are more than 80 welding processes. Most involve a skilled worker using a
high-heat torch (2,800-plus degrees Fahrenheit), filler material that is
usually in wire or stick form (though some welds don’t use fillers) and
pressure to permanently bond metal pieces. Welding can also be used to cut and
dismantle objects of all sizes as well as for repairs. 

The most common process is Gas Metal Arc Welding, or GMAW. In GMAW, an
electrode, which is also the filler, is continuously fed through the nozzle of
an arc torch. When the welder activates the torch, several operations take
place: The electrode begins feeding through the nozzle, a direct current is generated
that creates an arc when it comes in contact with the electrode and shielding
gases are released around the nozzle to protect the weld from atmospheric gases
that could degrade its quality. The arc, whose movement the welder controls,
consumes the electrode, fills in the weld joint and creates the weld. 

Other widely used techniques like Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)
and Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) are variations of the process.
GTAW, for example, is a relatively low-heat method that uses a non-consumable
tungsten electrode. Its low-heat characteristic reduces distortion in thin
metals, such as those used in aerospace. SMAW, also called “stick welding,”
uses a flux-coated consumable electrode («flux» is a chemical
cleaning agent that removes oxidation from the metals to be joined) and is
primarily used for repair and steel welding. As the electrode burns, the flux
disintegrates, which releases a shielding gas that protects the weld from
degradation. 

In more advanced welding technologies, lasers are combined with GMAW in a
hybrid process to make what one expert calls “scalpel-like cuts” that are up to
½-inch deep, narrow and extremely precise. The GMAW part of the process
then deposits the filler and melts it with a secondary heat source. 

The influence of welding is so broad that many of the product designs and
building techniques people take for granted would not be possible without
it. With demand for skilled welders rising and the technology of welding
becoming more advanced, especially where automation is concerned, students have
a unique opportunity to learn a career that can be shaped around their
interests. 

“There are many aspects to welding,” Mendez says. “When people come in contact
with it, they love it.”

Welding processes

As we have already read at the
beginning of this unit, welding is a process when metal parts are joined
together by the application of heat, pressure,  or  a  combination  of  both. 
The  processed  of  welding  can  be divided  into  two  main  groups: pressure 
welding, when  the  weld  is achieved by  pressure and  heat  welding,
when  the  weld  is  achieved  by heat. Heat welding is the most common welding
process used today.

Nowadays  welding  is  used  instead of 
bolting and  riveting in  the construction  of  many  types  of 
structures,  including  bridges,  buildings, and ships. It is also a basic
process in the manufacture of machinery and in  the  motor  and  aircraft 
industries.  It  is  necessary  almost  in  all productions where metals are
used. The welding process depends greatly on the properties of the metals, the purpose
of their application and the

available equipment. Welding  processes  are  classified 
according  to  the sources  of  heat  and  pressure  used. The  welding 
processes  widely employed  today  include  gas  welding,  arc 
welding, and  resistance  welding. Other  joining  processes 
are  laser  welding, and  electron-beam welding.

Gas Welding.  Gas  welding  is  a  non-pressure  process 
using  heat from a gas flame. The flame is applied directly to the
metal, edges to be  joined  and  simultaneously  to a  filler metal
in  the  form  of  wire  or  rod, called the welding rod, which is melted
to the joint. Gas welding has the  advantage of  using 
equipment  that  is  portable  and  does  not  require an electric power
source. The surfaces to be welded and the welding rod are coated with 
flux, a  fusible material  that  shields the  material 
from  air, which would result in a defective weld.

Arc Welding. Arc-welding is the most important welding
process for  joining  steels.  It  requires  a  continuous  supply  of  either 
direct  or alternating  electrical  current.  This  current  is  used  to  create
an  electric arc, which generates enough heat to melt metal and create a
weld. Arc welding  has  several  advantages  over  other  welding  methods. 
Arc welding is faster because the concentration of heat is high. Also, fluxes
are  not  necessary  in  certain  methods  of  arc  welding.  The  most  widely
used arc-welding processes are shielded metal arc, gas-tungsten arc, gas-metal
arc, and submerged arc.

Shielded  Metal  Arc
Welding.  In shielded 
metal-arc  welding,  a metallic  electrode,  which  conducts  electricity,  is 
coated  with  flux  and  connected  to  a  source  of  electric  current.  The 
metal  to  be  welded  is connected to the other end of the same source of
current. An electric arc is  formed  by  touching the  tip of  the 
electrode  to  the  metal  and  then drawing  it  away.  The intense  heat  of 
the  arc  melts  both  parts  to  be welded and the point of the metal
electrode, which supplies filler metal for the  weld. This process is used
mainly for  welding steels. There are also other types of welding.

Gas-tungsten Arc  Welding.  As  non-consumable  electrodes tungsten or
carbon electrodes can be used in gas-tungsten arc welding a tungsten electrode
is used in place of the metal electrode used in shielded metal-arc  welding. 
A  chemically  inert  gas,  such  as  argon,  helium,  or carbon dioxide is
used to shield the metal from oxidation. The heat from the arc formed between
the electrode and the metal melts the edges of the metal. Metal for the weld
may be added by placing a bare wire in the arc or the point of the weld. This
process can be used with nearly all metals and  produces  a  high-quality 
weld.  However,  the  rate of  welding  is considerably slower than in
other processes.

Gas-Metal Arc Welding. In gas-metal welding, a bare electrode
is shielded from the air by surrounding it with argon or carbon
dioxide gas and  sometimes  by  coating the  electrode  with  flux.  The 
electrode  is  fed into the electric arc, and melts off in droplets that
enter the liquid metal of the weld seam. Most metals can be joined by
this process.

Submerged  Arc Welding.  Submerged-arc  welding  is  similar  to
gas-metal  arc  welding,  but  in  this  process  no  gas  is  used  to 
shield  the weld. Instead of that, the arc and tip of the wire are submerged beneath
a layer of  granular,  fusible  material  that  covers  the  weld 
seam.  This process is also called electroslag welding. It is very
efficient but can be used only with steels.

Resistance  Welding.  In  resistance  welding,  heat  is 
obtained  from the resistance of metal to the flow of an electric current.
Electrodes are clamped on each side of the parts to be welded, the parts
are subjected to great pressure, and a heavy current is applied for a short
period of time. The  point  where  the  two  metals  touch creates  resistance
to  the  flow  of current. This resistance causes heat, which melts the metals
and creates the weld. Resistance welding is widely employed in many fields of
sheet metal  or  wire  manufacturing  and  is  often  used  for  welds  made 
by automatic or semi-automatic machines especially in automobile
industry.

Stick Welding

Stick Welding is a slang term
commonly used for Shielded Metal Arc Welding or “SMAW”. Stick welding is the
most basic and common type of welding processes used. It is also the first
process learned in any welding school. Stick is the most trouble free of all of
the welding processes and is the fundamental basis for all the skills needed to
learn how to weld!

Stick welders have four main
components.

 — A ground lead or clamp.

 — A welding lead or stinger.

 — A constant amperage power source.

 — The electrode or welding rod to weld
with.

The process is simple! The
ground clamp is attached to the work or metal to be welded. Then the welding
lead, or stinger, gets the electrode inserted in it. Finally, the power supply
is turned on and only requires the user to strike the metal to ignite it. Once
that is done. the arc starts and the electrode begins to burn. This creates a
shielding gas and deposits metal into the joint that is being welded. The slag
from the electrode needs to be cleaned or chipped off as soon as the weld is
finished.

ARC WELDING

1. In arc welding the work pieces are not melted by a
flame. They are melted by an electric arc. In order to create the arc, a
powerful electric current must be provided.

2. The current must be at least 60
A, otherwise the arc will not create enough heat. For thicker work pieces, the
current may be 250 A. In order to carry this current, the cables from the
transformer should be quite thick or else they will overheat.

3. To supply the necessary current the transformer is
used and to complete the electric circuit an earth clamp is used, which is
attached to the work piece. Then the current flows around the circuit and the
arc appears. It must be securely attached; otherwise an arc will appear between
the clamp and the work piece. To strike the arc, the transformer should be
switched on first.

4. The electrode holder contains an electrode rod which
provides the filler metal to join the work pieces. As the current flows between
the electrode and the work piece, the tip of the electrode melts and falls onto
the work piece. The electrode must be moved across the joint continuously, if
it is moved too quickly neither the electrode nor the work piece will melt.

5. While choosing an electrode type it is necessary to
know:

a. Position to which the work piece is to be welded.

LASER AND PLASMA WELDING

1.Welding is a process which provides a
non-detachable joining of two like metal pieces by heating them till melting
condition or fusion without or with mechanical pressure.

2.Laser welding is quickly becoming a
practical welding process. In its present stage of development, the laser can
form welds up to about 1/32 inch deep.

3.Pulsed lasers are often used in industry
today. The laser’s heat input is very small, so the heat-affected zone around a
joint is correspondingly small.

The laser’s high power intensity permits welds between dissimilar
metals of widely varying physical properties.

4. Plasma arc welding is efficient for fusion welding
stainless steels, titanium, nickel from 0.001 to 0.030
inch thick. The process is particularly well suited for repairing delicate
parts, for joining thin structures, and for welding electronic components. With
the exception of aluminum any metal or combination of metals can be welded with
plasma arc process.

Unit 5

Materials

Topic 1. General Overview of Materials and
their Structure

1. Прочитайте и
переведите тескт письменно, используя слова после тескта.

        The
properties of materials are sometimes referred to as structure-sensitive,
as compared to structure-insensitive properties. In this case
structure-insensitive properties include the traditional physical properties: electrical
and thermal conductivity, specific heat, density, and
magnetic and optical properties. The structure-sensitive properties include the
tensile and yield strength, hardness, and impact, creep, and
fatigue resistance. It is recognized that some sources maintain that
hardness is not a true mechanical property, because it varies somewhat with the
characteristics of the indentor and therefore is a technological test.
It is well known that other mechanical properties vary significantly with rate
of loading, temperature, geometry of notch in impact testing, and
the size and geometry of the test specimen.

      In that sense all mechanical tests of
material properties are technological tests.

Furthermore, since reported test values of
materials properties are statistical averages, a commercial material
frequently has a tolerance band of ±5 percent or more deviation
from a given published value.

      In the solid state, materials
can be classified as metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites.
Any particular material can be described by its behavior when subjected to
external conditions. Thus, when it is loaded under known conditions of
direction, magnitude, rate, and environment, the resulting responses are called
mechanical properties. There are many possible complex interrelationships among
the internal structure of a material and its service performance.
Mechanical properties such as yield strength, impact strength, hardness,
creep, and fatigue resistance are strongly structure-sensitive, i.e., they
depend upon the arrangement of the atoms in the crystal lattice and
on any imperfections in that arrangement, whereas the physical
properties are less strucure-sensitive. These include electrical, thermal,
magnetic, and optical properties and do depend in part upon structure; for
example, the resistivity of a metal increases with the amount of cold
work. Physical properties depend primarily upon the relative excess or
deficiency of the electrons that establish structural bonds and
upon their availability and mobility. Between the conductors
with high electron mobility and the insulators with no free electrons,
precise control of the atomic architecture has created semiconductors that
can have a planned modification of their electron mobility. Similarly, advances
in solid-state optics have led to the development of the stimulated
emission of electromagnetic energy in the microwave spectrum (masers)
and in the visible spectrum (lasers).

Topic 2. Physical Properties of Materials

     In studying the general structure of
materials, one may consider three groupings: first, atomic structure,
electronic configuration, bonding forces, and the arrangement of
the aggregations of atoms; second, the physical aspect of materials, including
properties such as electrical and thermal conductivity, specific heat,
and magnetism; and third, their macroscopic properties, such as their
mechanical behavior under load, which can be explained in terms of impurities
and imperfections in the lattice structure and the procedures
used to modify that behavior.

     In the selection of materials for
industrial applications, many engineers normally refer to their average macroscopic
properties, as determined by engineering tests, and are seldom concerned
with microscopic considerations. Others, because of their specialty or
the nature of their positions, have to deal with microscopic properties.

     The average properties of materials
are those involving matter in bulk with its flaws,
variations in composition, and variations in density that are caused by

manufacturing fluctuations. Microscopic properties pertain to atoms,
molecules, and their interactions. These aspects of materials are studied for
their direct applicability to industrial problems and also so that
possible properties in the development of new materials can be estimated.

      In order not to become confused by
apparently contradictory concepts when

dealing with the relationships between
the microscopic aspects of matter and the

average properties of materials, it is wise to consider the
principles that account for the nature of matter at the different levels of our
awareness. These levels are the commonplace, the extremely small,
and the extremely large. The commonplace level deals with the average
properties already mentioned, and the principles involved are those set forth
by classical physics. The realm of the extremely small is largely explained
by means of quantum mechanics, whereas that of the extremely large is dealt
with by relativity.

    Relativity is concerned with very large
masses, such as planets or stars, and

large velocities that may approach the velocity
of light. It is also applicable to

smaller masses, ranging down to subatomic
particles, when they move at high

velocities. Relativity has a definite place
in the tool boxes of nuclear engineers and

electrical engineers who deal with particle
accelerators. For production engineers,

relativity is of only academic interest and
is mentioned here for the sake of

completeness.

Topic 3. Mechanical Properties of Materials

   Designers and engineers are usually more
interested in the behavior of

materials under load or when in a
magnetic field than in why they behave as they do.

Yet the better one understands the nature
of materials and the reasons for their

physical and mechanical properties the more
quickly and wisely will he/she be able to choose the proper material for a
given design. Generally, a material property is the measured magnitude
of its response to a standard test performed according to a standard
procedure in a given environment. In engineering materials the loads are
mechanical or physical in nature and the properties are recorded in handbooks
or, for new materials, are made available by the supplier.
Frequently such information is tabulated for room-temperature conditions only,
so when the actual service conditions are at subfreezing or elevated temperatures,
more information is needed.

All materials have properties that
designers must use to their best advantage.

The following terms describe
these properties:

Ductility is a softness present in some materials,
such as copper and

aluminum, that permits them to be formed by
stretching (drawing) or hammering without breaking. Wire
is made of ductile materials that can be drawn through a die.

Brittleness is a characteristic of metals that will not
stretch without breaking,

such as cast irons and hardened
steels.

Malleability is the ability of a metal to be rolled or
hammered without

breaking.

Hardness is the ability of a metal to resist being dented
when it receives a

blow.

Toughness is the property of being resistant to
cracking and breaking while

remaining malleable.

Elasticity is the ability of a metal to return to its
original shape after being

bent or stretched.

   In chemistry, a metal (Greek: Metallon)
is an element that readily forms ions and

has metallic bonds, and metals are
sometimes described as a lattice of positive ions in a cloud of electrons. The
metals are one of the three groups of elements as distinguished by their
ionization and bonding properties, along with the metalloids and nonmetals. On
the periodic table, a diagonal line drawn from boron (B) to polonium (Po) separates the metals from the nonmetals. Elements on this line are metalloids,
sometimes called semimetals.

Elements to the lower left are
metals. Elements to the upper right are nonmetals.

Some well-known metals are aluminum,
copper, gold, iron, lead, silver, titanium,

uranium, and zinc.

A more modern definition of
metals is that they have overlapping conductance

and valence bands in their electronic
structure. This definition opens up the category for metallic polymers and
other organic metals, which have been made by researchers and employed in
high-tech devices.

Aluminum is a metallic chemical
element. It is ductile, malleable, and an excellent

conductor of heat and electricity. The pure
metal is soft. It becomes strong and hard when alloyed. Although it is
chemically very reactive, aluminum resists corrosion. It is rapidly attacked by
alkalies and by hydrochloric acid.

Important alloys of aluminum
include duralumin, aluminum bronze, and aluminum- magnesium. They are used
extensively in aircraft and other industries.

METALS

1. Mankind has used metals for centuries in
gradually increasing quantities but only now they are employed in really great
quantities.

2.         Today
we know more than seventy metals, the majority of which are used in industry.

3.  Of
all the metals iron is the most important one. Absolutely pure iron is
never prepared except for laboratory purposes. The irons and steels in use
today are really alloys of iron, carbon and other substances. They can be made
elastic, tough, hard, or comparatively soft.

4.
Mechanical properties of metals are the result of their atomic structure. They
include hardness, ductility and malleability which are of special importance in
engineering.

5.  Ductility is the capacity of a metal to be
permanently deformed in tension without breaking.

Malleability is the capacity
of a metal to be permanently deformed by compression without rupture.

6.  These properties are similar to each other
but not the same. Most metals increase these properties at higher temperatures.

7.  The strength of a metal is the
property of resistance to external loads and stresses.

8.  These mechanical properties are of great
importance in industrial purposes because all parts and units made of iron and
steel must meet up-to-date demands.

Alloy is a substance with
metallic properties that consists of a metal fused with

one or more metals or nonmetals. Alloys may
be a homogeneous solid solution, a heterogeneous mixture of tiny crystals, a
true chemical compound, or a mixture of these. Alloys are used more extensively
than pure metals because they can be engineered to have specific properties.

New alloys are being engineered
for use in new technology, including materials

for the space program.

Steel is a metal alloy whose
major component is iron and carbon. Carbon acts as a

hardening agent. Steel with increased
carbon content can be made harder and stronger than iron, but is also more
brittle.

Currently there are several classes of
steels in which carbon is replaced with other

alloying materials. A more recent
definition is that steels are iron-based alloys that can be plastically formed.

There are different types of
steels. Chromium steel finds wide use in automobile

and airplane parts on account of its
hardness, strength, and elasticity, as does the chromium- vanadium variety. In
a modern sense, alloy steels have been made since the advent of furnaces
capable of melting iron, into which other metals may be thrown and mixed.

Also there exist Carbon steel
and Damascus steel, which was famous in ancient times for its flexibility.

Nickel steel is the most widely
used of the alloys. It is nonmagnetic and has the

tensile properties of high-carbon steel
without the brittleness.

Stainless steels and surgical
stainless steels contain a minimum of 10.5% chromium, often combined with
nickel, to resist corrosion. Some stainless steels are nonmagnetic.

There are tool steels, H S L A Steel (High
Strength, Low Alloy) and ferrous super

alloys.

Alternative Types of Welding

Cold welding

Cold welding, the joining of
materials without the use of heat, can be accomplished simply by pressing them
together. Surfaces have to be well prepared, and pressure sufficient to produce
35 to 90 percent deformation at the joint is necessary, depending on the
material. Lapped joints in sheets and cold-butt welding of wires constitute the major applications of this technique.
Pressure can be applied by punch
presses, rolling stands,
or pneumatic tooling. Pressures of 1,400,000 to 2,800,000
kilopascals (200,000 to 400,000 pounds per square inch) are needed to produce a
joint in aluminum; almost all other metals need higher pressures.

Friction welding

In friction welding two work
pieces are brought together under load with one part rapidly revolving.
Frictional heat is developed at the interface until the material becomes
plastic, at which time the rotation is stopped and the load is increased to
consolidate the joint. A strong joint results with the plastic deformation, and
in this sense the process may be considered a variation of pressure welding.
The process is self-regulating, for, as the temperature at the joint rises, the
friction coefficient is reduced and overheating cannot occur. The machines are
almost like lathes in appearance.

Speed, force, and time are the main
variables. The process has been

automated for the production of axle
casings in the automotive industry.

Laser welding

Laser welding is accomplished
when the light energy emitted from a laser source focused upon a workpiece to fuse materials together. The limited availability of lasers
of sufficient power for most welding purposes has so far restricted its use in
this area. Another difficulty is that the speed and the thickness that can be
welded are controlled not so much by power but by the thermal conductivity of
the metals and by the avoidance of metal vaporization at the surface.
Particular applications of the process with very thin materials up to 0.5
mm (0.02 inch) have, however, been very successful. The process is useful in
the joining of miniaturized electrical circuitry.

Diffusion bonding

This type of bonding relies on
the effect of applied pressure at an elevated temperature for an appreciable
period of time. Generally, the pressure applied must be less than that
necessary to cause 5 percent deformation so that the process can be applied to finished machine parts. The process has been used most
extensively in the aerospace industries for joining materials and shapes that
otherwise could not be made—for example, multiple-finned
channels and honeycomb construction. Steel can be diffusion bonded
at above 1,000° C (1,800° F) in a few minutes.

Ultrasonic welding

Ultrasonic joining is achieved
by clamping the two pieces to be welded between an anvil and a vibrating probe or sonotrode. The vibration raises the
temperature at the interface and produces the weld. The main variables are the
clamping force, power input, and welding time. A weld can be made in 0.005
second on thin wires and up to 1 second with material 1.3
mm (0.05 inch) thick. Spot welds and continuous seam welds are made with good
reliability. Applications include extensive use on lead bonding to integrated
circuitry, transistor canning, and aluminum can bodies.

Explosive welding

Explosive welding takes place
when two plates are impacted together under an explosive force at high
velocity. The lower plate is laid on a firm surface, such as a heavier steel
plate. The upper plate is placed carefully at an angle of approximately 5° to
the lower plate with a sheet of explosive material on top. The charge is
detonated from the hinge of the two plates, and a weld takes place in
microseconds by very rapid plastic deformation of the material at the
interface. A completed weld has the appearance of waves at the joint caused by
a jetting action of metal between the plates.

OPERATIONS

Metal chiseling. This operation may be manual or mechanized.
Hand chiseling is hard work and takes up much time. If can be made easier when
mechanized with the aid of a pneumatic hammer.

Straightening. This operation is being performed when
bench workers receive bent or twisted blanks of metal. The elimination of these
defects .of the blanks are called
straightening. Metal can be straightened either mechani­cally (with the aid of
straightening rolls, presses or other devices) or manually, by using hand
hammers.

Bending operations are applied
when making many articles from sheet, flat and round steel. Work pieces are
bent to a definite radius or to a rounded up angle.

Filing is the process of removing a layer of metal from a
work piece with cutting tool called a file.

Drilling is an operation of making holes in a solid
piece of material by means of cutting tool known as a drill.

Boring is the operation of increasing the diameter
of an existing hole with a drill.

By riveting we understand the operation of fastening two or more
parts with rivets. Rivets are cylindrical metal
rods, with heads. They are employed for fastening parts, metal plates, bars,
which are not to be subjected to disassembly.

Lapping is a refined process which is applied in
facing up external and internal surfaces of parts, cylindrical, flat, formed,
requiring great precision and extremely fine quality of face finish. It is
performed with a special tool, called a lap. It is one of the most accurate
methods.

By scraping is understood
the operation of accurately finishing
the surface of a work piece by removing a very thin layer of metal with a
cutting tool called a scraper.

Tinning is a protective coating of tin or solder
applied to the surface of metals.

Soldering is the process of permanently joining two parts with special alloys, known as
solders.

EMPLOYMENT PROSPECTS AND WAGE POTENTIAL:

Close to half-million people hold jobs as welders,
cutters, or welding machine operators. Approximately three fourth of them are
in manufacturing and service industries. If other trades, such as boilermakers,
ironworkers, and pipefitters are included, then the total climbs to about 2
million or 10% of our national workforce. In an industry valued at more than
$5.5 billion, the need to replace aging, skilled welders is acute. According to
Dave Manning, president of the Hobart Institute of Welding Technology,
«The need for skilled welders will become more of a problem in the next
three to five years, as 50% of the welders in North America retire.»

Welders will be needed in manufacturing for industries
such as transportation equipment, industrial machinery,  fabricated metal
products. They will be found at construction sites, in repair shops and
personnel supply agencies.

According to Freddy Torres, coordinator for the
American Welding Society’s Schools Excelling through National Skills Education,
a welder’s average weekly earnings were $742 in the summer of 2000. The average
annual earnings for a welder is between $30,000 and $46,000 per year.

Skill explained

Welders are craftsmen and women who need
hands-on skills to do a professional job. Different welding processes are
required with different materials. In order to meet the quality requirements,
welders must be able to understand welding drawings, standards and markings,
apply the required welding processes and understand the characteristics of the
materials. Knowledge of welding work safety is also required.

The skill covers the welding of components,
structures, plates, pipes and pressure vessels.

Standard reference terms and definitions
for welding processes, welding positions and weld testing shall be to
International Standard Organisation (ISO) and American Welding Society (AWS)
standards. Where a conflict arises, the ISO standards shall have precedence. If
no ISO standard is applicable then the relevant AWS standard shall be used.

Underwater Welding Career Information

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

What is an
Underwater Welder?

An underwater welder is someone who performs vital
work related to various industrial applications, including building offshore
oil platforms, repairing ships, and maintaining underwater pipelines.
Underwater welders must have advanced skills in both diving and welding,
including various specialized underwater welding techniques.

What Does an
Underwater Welder Do?

Underwater welders are highly trained in both
professional diving and welding in order to perform welding tasks in an
underwater environment. They work with specialized welding equipment that is
designed for safe use underwater without high risk of electric shock.

Although trained in various techniques, underwater
welders perform tasks that can essentially be grouped into two classifications:

Wet
welding:

·                                
Means that the welding
process involves being directly exposed to wet or fully submerged conditions

·                                
Uses a special
waterproof electrode that was invented in 1946

·                                
Requires the welding
power supply to be connected to the welding equipment through cables and hoses

·                                
When performed at
significant depths, requires a highly experienced underwater welder with
specialized knowledge of ambient pressure and its effects on welds

·                                
Most commonly uses shielded
metal arc welding (SMAW) techniques

Dry
welding:

·                                
Takes place underwater
but is performed in a dry environment, usually called a hyperbaric chamber (an
enclosed container that is submerged under water)

·                                
Involves working within
the hyperbaric chamber, which (similar to submarines) is pressurized to
withstand underwater conditions

·                                
Is performed by sealing
the hyperbaric chamber around the structure that requires welding work

·                                
Is usually restricted
to maximum operational depths of 400
meters

·                                
Can theoretically
involve most welding processes but most commonly uses gas tungsten arc welding
(GTAW)

Some
of the duties that underwater welders take on can include:

·                    
Repairing ships

·                    
Maintaining oil platforms

·                    
Inspecting, repairing,
and maintaining underwater pipelines

·                    
Salvaging shipwrecked vessels

·                    
New construction
projects, such as bridges

·                    
Building, repairing,
and maintaining telecommunications equipment beneath the floor of the ocean

In
addition, underwater welders are often responsible for taking on a variety of
tasks prior to actually performing any welding.

 Some of these
duties can include:

·                                
Inspecting,
photographing, and creating maps of the work environment

·                                
Researching and
documenting all aspects of the prospective job

·                                
Testing equipment and explosive
materials

·                                
Conducting experiments
to ensure project viability and safety

Project
length and working hours can vary greatly, depending on the scope of the
project. Therefore, a job can range from just a few hours to days, months, or
even years. However, it is important to note that, although the main purpose is
the actual underwater welding task, the vast majority of time and effort is
often spent on training, preparation, and safety precautions.

In
addition, for safety reasons, underwater welders work with a team of trained professionals
who remain on standby above the water and keep in constant contact in order to
provide immediate assistance if, at any time, the welder ends up in danger.

What
are the Pros and Cons of Becoming an Underwater Welder?

Many
regulations exist to keep underwater welding as safe as possible, effectively
controlling any chance of danger. Nevertheless, some risk will always be
involved when you are diving and working with electric-powered equipment
beneath the water. However, when it comes right down to it, the level of risk
is relatively low the majority of the time. And, for most underwater welders,
their love of the job far outweighs any risks.

That
being said, it is important to understand the pros and cons of the job.

Pros

·                                
There’s no denying that
a little bit of risk comes with a whole lot of excitement and a powerful sense
of adventure.

·                                
Working underwater,
especially in offshore environments, is fascinating. The ocean always has been
(and always will be) a constant source of undeniable mystery and awe.

·                                
The technologies and
equipment related to underwater welding are constantly being updated, and
continuous learning can create a strong feeling of satisfaction.

·                                
The continuous
innovation in the field allows for more sophisticated and advanced engineering
ideas to be brought to life. Witnessing
this progress can be exhilarating.

·                                
The prospect of a
six-figure salary can be extremely enticing.

·                                
You can have the
opportunity to do extensive traveling—seeing new places, meeting new people,
and gaining amazing experiences.

Cons

·                                
Even when following
strict precautions, there is risk of electric shock.

·                                
Because of the need to
work with a combination of hydrogen and oxygen, there is a risk of pockets of
gas forming (due to the high-pressure depth) and causing an explosion.

·                                
There are dangers
related to any type of diving. They include risk of drowning due to equipment
failure, ear/nose/sinus/lung damage due to pressure, decompression sickness,
and more.

·                                
The training to become
an underwater welder can be intense and may require a significant amount of
time and money to be invested.

·                                
You are apt to spend
significantly more time and energy preparing for a project and ensuring safety
precautions are met than actually performing underwater welding.

·                                
You may need to
continuously travel in order to obtain steady work, which can be draining
because it may mean not seeing family and friends very often.

Welding’s Vital Part in Major American
Historical Events

Part 1.

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

ASME, founded as the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers, is a professional association that, in its own words, «promotes the art, science, and
practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the
globe» via «continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and
publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach.» ASME is
thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization,
a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society
focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today
multidisciplinary and global.

ASME
is one of the oldest standards-developing organizations in the world. It
produces approximately 600 codes and standards, covering many technical areas,
such as boiler components, elevators, measurement of fluid flow in closed
conduits, cranes, hand tools, fasteners, and machine tools. Some ASME standards
have been translated into other languages other than English, such Chinese,
French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish.

·                   
A Standard can be defined as a set of technical
definitions and guidelines that function as instructions for designers,
manufacturers, operators, or users of equipment.

·                   
A standard
becomes a Code when it has been adopted by one or
more governmental bodies and is enforceable by law, or when it has been
incorporated into a business contract.

The ASME Code

           In the late 1920s and early 1930s,
the welding of pressure vessels came on the scene. Welding made possible a
quantum jump in pressure attainable because the process eliminated the low
structural efficiency of the riveted joint. Welding was widely utilized by
industry as it strove to increase operating efficiencies by the use of higher
pressures and temperatures, all of which meant thick-walled vessels. But

before this occurred, a
code for fabrication was born from the aftermath of catastrophe.

On April 27, 1865, the
steamboat Sultana blew up while transporting 2200 passengers on the Mississippi River. The cause of the catastrophe was the sudden explosion of three of the
steamboat’s four boilers, and up to 1500 people were killed as a result. Most
of the passengers were Union soldiers homeward bound after surviving
Confederate prison camps. In another disaster on March 10, 1905,
a fire tube boiler in a shoe factory in Brockton, Mass., exploded, killing 58,
injuring 117 and causing damages valued at $250,000. These two incidents, and
the many others between them, proved there was a need to bring safety to boiler
operation. So, a voluntary code of construction went into effect in 1915 — the
ASME Boiler Code.

As welding began to be used, a
need for nondestructively examining those welds emerged. In the 1920s,
inspectors tested welds by tapping them with hammers, then listening to the
sound through stethoscopes. A dead sound indicated a defective weld. By 1931,
the revised Boiler Code accepted welded vessels judged safe by radiographic
testing. By this time, magnetic particle testing was used to detect surface
cracks that had been missed by radiographic inspection. In his history of the
ASME Code, A. M. Greene, Jr., referred to the late 1920s and early 1930s as
«the great years.» It was during this period that fusion welding
received widespread acceptance. Nowadays, thousands of individuals who make
their living in welding live and breathe the ASME Code every minute of the
working day.

As far as welding interests are
concerned, probably the most important part of the ASME Code is «Section
IX — Welding and Brazing Qualifications.» This section relates to the
qualification of welders and welding operators, and the procedures they must
follow to comply with the code. Under procedure qualifications, each process is
listed, and the essential and nonessential variables of each are spelled out.
Welding performance qualifications are also included.

In the early years of the ASME
Code, fabricators were known to spend their own research dollars to develop a
process so it could be used in Code construction work. Eventually, however, a
code case would have to be submitted to the appropriate ASME Code committee,
but first a procedure qualification had to be developed. The code authorities
expected the quality of the weld metal and the heat-affected zone to be equal
to that of the base metal.

In 1977, Leonard Zick, chairman
of the main committee of the ASME Code, said, «It’s more than a code; the
related groups make up a safety system. Our main objective is to provide
requirements for new construction of pressure-related items that, when
followed, will provide safety to those who use them and those who might be
affected by their use. «And, since the use of the code item might be for
any type of process or for any discipline involving energy, the committee’s
activities do not play one against the other. We want all code items to be safe, period.»

LNG Tankers
         A triumph of the code was the huge
aluminum spheres built by General Dynamics in Charleston, S.C. They were built to
criteria established by the U.S. Coast Guard and were based on Section VIII,
Division 1, of the ASME Code.

At about 2
a.m. on October 2, 1976, the first welded aluminum sphere for a liquefied
natural gas tanker was rolled out of a building in Charleston, then moved over
to a special stand for final hydropneumatic testing. It soon passed the test
with flying colors. The sphere itself weighed 850 tons and measured 120
ft (36 m) in diameter. Each sphere consisted of more than 100 precisely
machined plates, «orange peel» in shape. The plates were gas metal
arc welded together using 7036 lb (3166
kg) of filler metal. Total length of the welds on each sphere was 48.6
miles. Completed spheres were barged along the coast and delivered onto steel
tankers under construction at General Dynamics’ shipyard in Quincy, Mass.
This type of LNG tanker was based on the Moss-Rosenberg design from Norway.

Meanwhile, Newport News
Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Co. was building LNG tankers in Virginia. Based on
the Technigaz design, the tankers featured a waffled membrane of stainless
steel for containing the gas. Avondale Shipyards, Inc., New Orleans, La.,
was building still other LNG tankers based on the Conch design, which featured
prismatic tanks of aluminum.

At General Dynamics’ facility
in Charleston, 80% of the metalworking manhours were spent welding. Much of the
filler metal deposited in Charleston was 5183 aluminum. The vertical joints
were welded using special equipment from Switzerland in which the operator rode
in a custom-designed chair alongside the welding arc. At this distance, he was
able to monitor the weld and observe the oscillation of the 1Z16-in. (1.5-mm) diameter filler
metal. Actual welding was controlled remotely. About 30 weld passes were
required for each joint.

The thicker 11Z2-in. (3.8-cm) joints were
welded by Big MIG equipment, operating with a 1Z8-in. (3-mm) diameter wire at 500
A. The equipment was capable of completing the joint in four passes.

The massive equatorial ring was
welded outdoors. In this setup, nine heavily machined, curved aluminum
extrusions had to be welded together. To do it, 88 GMA weld passes were made
from the outside and 60 more from the inside.

One engineer on site at the
time had just transferred from one of the company’s aerospace divisions, a
division known for extremely high weld quality on sensitive material. «As
far as quality is concerned,» he noted, «there’s really not that much
difference (between Charleston and the aerospace division). I do think that the
weld quality achievement here in Charleston is as high, if not higher, than it
is in aerospace, but then 5083-0 is a very forgiving aluminum alloy.»

High-Rise Construction

     About 30 years ago, steel construction went
into orbit. The 100-story John Hancock Center in Chicago and the 110-story twin
towers of New York’s World Trade Center were under construction. Above ground,
the World Trade Center required some 176,000 tons of fabricated structural
steel. The Sears Tower came later. Bethlehem Steel Corp. had received orders
for 200,000 tons of rolled steel products for the South Mall complex in Albany,
N.Y. Allied Structural Steel Co. was reported to have used multiple-electrode
gas metal arc welding in the fabrication of the First National Bank of Chicago
Building.

In a progress report on the
erection of the critical corner pieces for the first 22 floors of the 1107-ft
(332-m) high John Hancock Center, an Allied Structural Steel spokesman said
various welding processes were being used in that portion of the high-rise
building. More than 12,000 tons of structural steel were used in that section.
Webs and flanges for each interior H column were made up of A36 steel plate
with thicknesses up to 61Z2 in. (16.5
cm). The long fillet welds at the web-to-flange contact faces were made using
the submerged arc process, while the box sections were being welded by
CO2-shielded E70T-1 flux cored electrodes. On the box sections, welding
operators were averaging deposition rates of 90
lb (40.5 kg) per day. A total of 310,000
lb (139,500 kg) of weld metal was consumed in shop fabrication for this
building, while 165,000 lb (74,250 kg) of weld metal was consumed during field
erection.

Weld metal consumption in shop
fabrication for the U.S. Steel Building in Pittsburgh, Pa., reached 609,000
lb (274,050 kg).

During this same period, Kaiser
Steel Corp. had used the consumable guide version of electroslag welding to deposit
24,000 welds in the Bank of America world headquarters building in San
Francisco. At the time, this building was regarded as the tallest
earthquake-proof structure ever erected on the West Coast.

In terms of welding, one of the
most intensive structures built during this period was NASA’s Vertical
Assembly Building on Merritt Island, Fla. Shop-welded sections for this giant
structure consumed 830,000 lb (373,500
kg) of weld metal.

For the World Trade
Center, Leslie E. Robertson, a partner in charge of the New York office of
Skilling, Helle, Christiansen, Robertson, said a computer was used to produce
the drawing lists, beam schedules, column details and all schedules for
exterior wall panels. Millions of IBM cards were then sent to every fabricator.
These cards gave fabricators the width, length, thickness and grade of steel of
every plate and section in all of the columns and panels. «In
addition,» he said, «the fabricators are given all of the
requirements of every weld needed to make up the columns and panels. Many of
these cards are used as equatable to the production of drawings. They are sent
directly from the designer to the fabricators. Draftsmen never become
involved.»

Elsewhere in New York City, Leo
Plofker, a partner in one of the city’s leading design engineering firms,
extensively used welding in design. Among Plofker’s achievements are the Pan-Am
Building and the all-welded, 52-story office building known as 140 Broadway.

«Our decision to make
extensive use of welding is strictly based on economics,» he said.
«Welded design results in savings in steel. Field welding can cause some
problems, but they are not too serious as long as you maintain control over the
welders and you insist that qualified personnel be employed to perform nondestructive
testing of the welds.»

Control of welding fume

Exposure to fume

For many gas
and arc welding processes, the fume concentration in the immediate vicinity of
the weld is well above its exposure limit. The amount of fume generated is
determined primarily by welding process, consumable and welding procedure.
However, the following aspects are likely to influence the degree to which the
welder is exposed to fume:

• welding position
• location and type of workplace
• exposure duration

Thus, welders using the same
process may be exposed to different levels of fume. The risks for each job
should, therefore, be assessed individually.

Welding position

The welding position (flat,
vertical, horizontal or overhead) and proximity of the welder to the fume plume
affect exposure. As the welder naturally bends over the workpiece, the flat
position induces the highest level of fume in the breathing zone. The welder
should adopt a working position which ensures that his head is away from the
plume.

Location and type of workplace

Welding in a large workshop, or
outdoors, prevents build-up of fume and gases. However, in a small workshop,
fume will not be readily dispersed and the welder may be subjected to a higher
than average exposure. Working in confined spaces, in particular, requires an
efficient, monitored, ventilation system so exposure is controlled and there is
no depletion of oxygen in the working atmosphere.

Control of welding fume

If welding fume cannot be eliminated,
control measures should be adopted as follows:

• choice or modification of the welding
  process
• improvement in working practices
• ventilation
• use of respiratory protection
  equipment (RPE)

RPE should not be considered
until the effectiveness of all other techniques has been explored.

Choice
or modification of the welding process

Process choice is usually made on the basis of weld
quality, economics and equipment availability. Nevertheless, if other processes
can be used, it should be borne in mind that some processes, such as
submerged-arc and TIG, generates significantly less particulate fume than MMA,
MIG and FCAW. Consumable manufacturers also supply information on fume
composition which can be used in selecting welding rods for a particular job.

Improvement in working practices

A substantial improvement can
often be made by placing the workpiece so the welder can avoid the plume which
rises above the weld.

In large scale fabrications, the welding
sequence should be organised to minimise the work carried out in enclosed or
confined spaces.

Safe practice and
accident avoidance

• adopt position and techniques to keep head out of
  welding plume
• avoid welding in enclosed and confined spaces

Safe practice and accident avoidance

• check that the equipment is working correctly and
  is regularly maintained, for example, cleaning and replacing filters
  according to manufacturer’s recommendations
• place the extraction hood or nozzle to capture
  the fume without disturbing the gas shield
• when welding large structures, reposition the
  hood at appropriate intervals to ensure fume continues to be effectively
  extracted

Safety and Scheduled Maintenance Protect
Your Welding Assets

Q: What can I do to avoid
electrical shocks?

A: Wet working conditions must
be avoided, because water is an excellent conductor and electricity will always
follow the path of least resistance. Even

a person’s perspiration can lower the
body’s resistance to electrical shock. Poor connections and bare spots on cables further increase the possibility of
electrical shock, and therefore, daily inspection of these items is
recommended. Equipment operators should also routinely inspect for proper ground connections.

Q: How can I inspect and
maintain my wire feeder?

A: Periodically inspect the
electrode wire drive rolls. If dirty, remove the drive rolls and clean with a
wire brush. Deformed drive rolls should be replaced. Drive rolls should be
changed, adjusted or cleaned only when the wire feeder is shut off. In
addition, check the inlet and outlet guides and replace if they are deformed
from wire wear. Remember that when power is applied to a wire feeder, fingers
should be kept away from the drive roll area.

Q: What are some important
electrode safety considerations?

A: Welding power sources for
use with MIG and TIG welding normally are equipped with devices that permit
on/off control of the welding power output.

If so, the electrode becomes electrically
hot when the power source switch is ON and the welding gun switch is closed.
Never touch the electrode wire or any conducting object in contact with the
electrode circuit, unless the welding power source is off. Welding power sources
used for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW or Stick welding) may not be equipped
with welding power output on/off control devices. With such equipment, the
electrode is electrically hot when the power switch is turned ON.

Q: How should I store my gas
cylinders?

A: Cylinders should be securely
fastened at all times. Chains are usually used

to secure a cylinder to a wall or cylinder
cart. When moving or storing a cylinder, a threaded protector cap must be
fastened to the top of the cylinder. This protects the valve system should it
be bumped or dropped. Cylinders should not be stored or used in a horizontal
position. This is because some cylinders contain a liquid which would leak out
or be forced out if the cylinder was laid in a flat position. Also, welding
guns and other cables should not be hung on or near cylinders. A gun could
cause an arc against the cylinder wall or valve assembly, possibly resulting in
a weakened cylinder or even a rupture.

Q: How can I tell if my
regulator is faulty?

A: The following symptoms
indicate a faulty regulator: Leaks — if gas leaks externally. Excessive сreep
— if delivery pressure continues to rise with the downstream valve closed.

Faulty gauge — if gauge pointer
does not move off the stop pin when pressurized, nor returns to the stop pin
after pressure release. Do not attempt to repair a faulty regulator. It should
be sent to your designated repair center, where special techniques and tools
are used by trained personnel.

Q: What are some tips for a
safe welding environment?

A: The area surrounding the
welder will be subjected to light, heat, smoke, sparks and fumes. Permanent
booths or portable partitions can be used to contain light rays in one area.
The heat and sparks given off are capable of setting flammable materials on
fire. Therefore, welding should not be done in areas containing flammable
gases, vapors, liquids or dusty locations where explosions are a possibility.
Metals with plating, coatings or paint that come near the region of the arc may
give off smoke and fumes during welding. These fumes may pose a health hazard
to the lungs, therefore an exhaust hood or booth should be used to remove fumes from the area. When welding in confined spaces, such as inside tanks, large containers or even
compartments of a ship, toxic fumes may gather. Also, in an enclosed room,
breathable oxygen can be replaced by shielding gases used for welding or
purging. Care must be taken to ensure enough clean air for breathing. In many
companies, it is routine to provide welders with air masks or selfcontained breathing
equipment.

Q: How should an operator
dress for optimum safety?

A: Gloves and clothing should
be flame-resistant. Clothing made from a dark-colored, tightly woven material
is best suited for welding. Gauntlet-type leather gloves should be worn to
protect the hands and wrists. Shirt collars and shirt cuffs should be buttoned,
and open front pockets are not advisable as they may catch sparks. Also,
operators should never store matches or lighters in their pockets. Pants cuffs
are not recommended, as they will also catch sparks. Tennis shoes do not
qualify as adequate foot protection. Hightop leather shoes or boots are
absolutely necessary.

Q: Is there a daily
maintenance schedule I should follow?

A: Below is a general engine
drive routine daily maintenance schedule, but it

should be modified according to a company’s
specific conditions. By following a regimen of appropriate and thorough
maintenance and safety, a welder from Miller Electric can run dependably for
decades. Designed to withstand rough use, these machines use high quality
components and are tested for durability.

SAFETY ENGINEERING

Accidents to people in
industrial enterprises are called industrial traumatism (injury). They occur
when workers have not acquired the requisite for skill and lack the necessary
experience in handling tools and equipment. Accidents are also caused through
neglect of safety rules and regulations in the factories and training
workshops.

The purpose of safety
engineering is to prevent acci­dents and to create such conditions of work in
industry which will ensure maximum productivity of labour.

When taking up new duties or
when first going to work at any
industrial enterprise each worker is obliged to acquaint him thoroughly with,
and to master the safety instructions.

The History of Welding

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

With all the
power and precision machinery involved in production welding, you might think
of welding as a relatively new process. In reality, welding has been around for
thousands of years. Early examples of welding have been found in locations
ranging from Ireland to India, with some dating back to the Bronze Age.
Naturally, these civilizations lacked the vast array of tools and machinery
that welders have access to now. How did they manage to weld?

The process
they used is known as forge
welding. To start the process, blacksmiths would heat the metal until
it was bright red in color (but still not at its melting point). The blacksmiths
would then place the two pieces, slightly overlapping, on an anvil and pound
them together. Forge welding has multiple limitations. Only relatively s­oft
metals can be forge welded, and the process is very labor intensive. In places
without electricity, however, the process is still used.

Forge
welding was the only game in town until the 19th century. With the onset of the
industrial revolution, however, numerous discoveries pushed welding forward
fast. Research on electricity yielded electrodes and electric arcs. Rudimentary
torches were developed by mid-century as well. Both discoveries would play
heavily into the welding methods of the next century.

By the late
1800s, many of the pieces were in place to make welding a driving force in
manufacturing. Still, the methods of this era weren’t perfect. Oxidation (the
process of metals bonding to the oxygen particles in the atmosphere) occurred
during the welding process and made welds porous and brittle. Such welds posed
a grave risk to workers. During the period from 1895 to 1905, for instance,
poorly made boilers exploded daily, causing thousands of deaths in the process.
Clearly there was an urgent need for better welding methods. Over the next few
sections, we’ll learn more about those new and improved methods, starting with
a closer look at the tools of the trade.

WELDING AT
SEA AND IN SPACE

Diver
welders routinely repair ships and oil rigs, typically using arc welding
(negating the use of a flame). Space welding sits at the other end of the
spectrum. The vacuum of space creates an ideal environme­nt for welding, since
there are no gases to interact with the welding site. Space welding makes
massive undertakings like the International Space Station possible.

History of Welding

Middle
Ages

Welding can trace its historic development back to
ancient times. The earliest examples come from the Bronze Age. Small gold circular
boxes were made by pressure welding lap joints together. It is estimated that
these boxes were made more than 2000 years ago. During the Iron Age the
Egyptians and people in the eastern Mediterranean area learned to weld pieces
of iron together. Many tools were found which were made approximately 1000 B.C.

During the Middle Ages, the art of blacksmithing was
developed and many items of iron were produced which were welded by hammering.
It was not until the 19th century that welding, as we know it today was
invented.

1800

Edmund Davy of England is credited with the discovery
of acetylene in 1836. The production of an arc between two carbon electrodes
using a battery is credited to Sir Humphry Davy in 1800.
In the mid-nineteenth century, the electric generator was invented and arc
lighting became popular. During the late 1800s, gas welding and cutting was
developed. Arc welding with the carbon arc and metal arc was developed and
resistance welding became a practical joining process.

1880

Auguste De Meritens, working in the Cabot Laboratory
in France, used the heat of an arc for joining lead plates for storage
batteries in the year 1881. It was his pupil, a Russian, Nikolai N. Benardos,
working in the French laboratory, who was granted a patent for welding. He,
with a fellow Russian, Stanislaus Olszewski, secured a British patent in 1885
and an American patent in 1887. The patents show an early electrode holder.
This was the beginning of carbon arc welding. Bernardos’ efforts were
restricted to carbon arc welding, although he was able to weld iron as well as
lead. Carbon arc welding became popular during the late 1890s and early 1900s.

1890

In 1890, C.L. Coffin of Detroit was awarded the first U.S.
patent for an arc welding process using a metal electrode. This was the first
record of the metal melted from the electrode carried across the arc to deposit
filler metal in the joint to make a weld. About the same time, N.G. Slavianoff,
a Russian, presented the same idea of transferring metal across an arc, but to cast
metal in a mold.

1900

Approximately 1900, Strohmenger introduced a coated
metal electrode in Great Britain. There was a thin coating of clay or lime, but
it provided a more stable arc. Oscar Kjellberg of Sweden invented a covered or
coated electrode during the period of 1907 to 1914. Stick electrodes were
produced by dipping short lengths of bare iron wire in thick mixtures of
carbonates and silicates, and allowing the coating to dry.

Meanwhile, resistance welding processes were
developed, including spot welding, seam welding, projection welding and flash
butt welding. Elihu Thompson originated resistance welding. His patents were
dated 1885-1900. In 1903, a German named Goldschmidt invented thermite welding
that was first used to weld railroad rails.

Gas welding and cutting were perfected during this
period as well. The production of oxygen and later the liquefying of air, along
with the introduction of a blow pipe or torch in 1887, helped the development
of both welding and cutting. Before 1900, hydrogen and coal gas were used with
oxygen. However, in about 1900 a torch suitable for use with low-pressure
acetylene was developed.

World War I brought a tremendous demand for armament
production and welding was pressed into service. Many companies sprang up in America
and in Europe to manufacture welding machines and electrodes to meet the requirements.

1919

Immediately after the war in 1919, twenty members of
the Wartime Welding Committee of the Emergency Fleet Corporation under the
leadership of Comfort Avery Adams, founded the American Welding Society as a
nonprofit organization dedicated to the advancement of welding and allied
processes.

Alternating current was invented in 1919 by C.J.
Holslag; however it did not become popular until the 1930s when the
heavy-coated electrode found widespread use.

1920

In 1920, automatic welding was introduced. It utilized
bare electrode wire operated on direct current and utilized arc voltage as the
basis of regulating the feed rate. Automatic welding was invented by P.O. Nobel
of the General Electric Company. It was used to build up worn motor shafts and
worn crane wheels. It was also used by the automobile industry to produce rear
axle housings.

During the 1920s, various types of welding electrodes
were developed. There was considerable controversy during the 1920s about the
advantage of the heavy-coated rods versus light-coated rods. The heavy-coated
electrodes, which were made by extruding, were developed by Langstroth and
Wunder of the A.O. Smith Company and were used by that company in 1927.
In 1929, Lincoln Electric Company produced extruded electrode rods that were
sold to the public. By 1930, covered electrodes were widely used. Welding codes
appeared which required higher-quality weld metal, which increased the use of
covered electrodes.

During the 1920s there was considerable research in
shielding the arc and weld area by externally applied gases. The atmosphere of
oxygen and nitrogen in contact with the molten weld metal caused brittle and
sometime porous welds. Research work was done utilizing gas shielding
techniques. Alexander and Langmuir did work in chambers using hydrogen as a
welding atmosphere. They utilized two electrodes starting with carbon
electrodes but later changing to tungsten electrodes. The hydrogen was changed
to atomic hydrogen in the arc. It was then blown out of the arc forming an
intensely hot flame of atomic hydrogen during to the molecular form and
liberating heat. This arc produced half again as much heat as an oxyacetylene
flame. This became the atomic hydrogen welding process. Atomic hydrogen never
became popular but was used during the 1930s and 1940s for special applications
of welding and later on for welding of tool steels.

H.M. Hobart and P.K. Devers were doing similar work
but using atmospheres of argon and helium. In their patents applied for in
1926, arc welding utilizing gas supplied around the arc was a forerunner of the
gas tungsten arc welding process. They also showed welding with a concentric
nozzle and with the electrode being fed as a wire through the nozzle. This was
the forerunner of the gas metal arc welding process. These processes were
developed much later.

1930

Stud welding was developed in 1930 at the New York
Navy Yard, specifically for attaching wood decking over a metal surface. Stud
welding became popular in the shipbuilding and construction industries.

The automatic process that became popular was the
submerged arc welding process. This «under powder» or smothered arc
welding process was developed by the National Tube Company for a pipe mill at McKeesport, Pennsylvania. It was designed to make the longitudinal seams in the pipe. The
process was patented by Robinoff in 1930 and was later sold to Linde Air
Products Company, where it was renamed Unionmelt® welding. Submerged arc
welding was used during the defense buildup in 1938
in shipyards and in ordnance factories. It is one of the most productive
welding processes and remains popular today.

1940

Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) had its beginnings
from an idea by C.L. Coffin to weld in a nonoxidizing gas atmosphere, which he
patented in 1890. The concept was further refined in the late 1920s by
H.M.Hobart, who used helium for shielding, and P.K. Devers, who used argon.
This process was ideal for welding magnesium and also for welding stainless and
aluminum. It was perfected in 1941, patented by Meredith, and named Heliarc®
welding. It was later licensed to Linde Air Products, where the water-cooled
torch was developed. The gas tungsten arc welding process has become one of the
most important.

The gas shielded metal arc welding (GMAW) process was
successfully developed at Battelle Memorial Institute in 1948 under the
sponsorship of the Air Reduction Company. This development utilized the gas
shielded arc similar to the gas tungsten arc, but replaced the tungsten
electrode with a continuously fed electrode wire. One of the basic changes that
made the process more usable was the small-diameter electrode wires and the
constant-voltage poser source. This principle had been patented earlier by H.E.
Kennedy. The initial introduction of GMAW was for welding nonferrous metals.
The high deposition rate led users to try the process on steel. The cost of
inert gas was relatively high and the cost savings were not immediately
available.

1950

In 1953, Lyubavskii and Novoshilov announced the use
of welding with consumable electrodes in an atmosphere of CO2 gas. The CO2
welding process immediately gained favor since it utilized equipment developed
for inert gas metal arc welding, but could now be used for economically welding
steels. The CO2 arc is a hot arc and the larger electrode wires required fairly
high currents. The process became widely used with the introduction of
smaller-diameter electrode wires and refined power supplies. This development
was the short-circuit arc variation which was known as Micro-wire®, short-arc,
and dip transfer welding, all of which appeared late in 1958 and early in 1959.
This variation allowed all-position welding on thin materials and soon became
the most popular of the gas metal arc welding process variations.

1960

Another variation was the use of inert gas with small
amounts of oxygen that provided the spray-type arc transfer. It became popular
in the early 1960s. A recent variation is the use of pulsed current. The
current is switched from a high to a low value at a rate of once or twice the
line frequency.

Soon after the introduction of CO2 welding, a
variation utilizing a special electrode wire was developed. This wire,
described as an inside-outside electrode, was tubular in cross section with the
fluxing agents on the inside. The process was called Dualshield®, which
indicated that external shielding gas was utilized, as well as the gas produced
by the flux in the core of the wire, for arc shielding. This process, invented
by Bernard, was announced in 1954, but was patented in 1957, when the National
Cylinder Gas Company reintroduced it.

In 1959, an inside-outside electrode was produced
which did not require external gas shielding. The absence of shielding gas gave
the process popularity for noncritical work. This process was named
Innershield®.

The electroslag welding process was announced by the
Soviets at the Brussels World Fair in Belgium in 1958. It had been used in the
Soviet Union since 1951, but was based on work done in the United
States by R.K. Hopkins, who was granted patents in 1940. The Hopkins process was never used to a very great degree for joining. The process was
perfected and equipment was developed at the Paton Institute Laboratory in Kiev,
Ukraine, and also at the Welding Research Laboratory in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia.
The first production use in the U.S. was at the Electromotive Division of
General Motors Corporation in Chicago, where it was called the Electro-molding
process. It was announced in December 1959 for the fabrication of welded diesel
engine blocks. The process and its variation, using a consumable guide tube, is
used for welding thicker materials.

The Arcos Corporation introduced another vertical
welding method, called Electrogas, in 1961. It utilized equipment developed for
electroslag welding, but employed a flux-cored electrode wire and an externally
supplied gas shield. It is an open arc process since a slag bath is not
involved. A newer development uses self-shielding electrode wires and a
variation uses solid wire but with gas shielding. These methods allow the
welding of thinner materials than can be welded with the electroslag process.

Gage invented plasma arc welding in 1957. This process
uses a constricted arc or an arc through an orifice, which creates an arc
plasma that has a higher temperature than the tungsten arc. It is also used for
metal spraying and for cutting.

The electron beam welding process, which uses a
focused beam of electrons as a heat source in a vacuum chamber, was developed
in France. J.A. Stohr of the French Atomic Energy Commission mad the first
public disclosure of the process on November 23, 1957.
In the United States, the automotive and aircraft engine industries are the
major users of electron beam welding.

Most
Recent

Friction welding, which uses rotational speed and
upset pressure to provide friction heat, was developed in the Soviet Union. It
is a specialized process and has applications only where a sufficient volume of
similar parts is to be welded because of the initial expense for equipment and
tooling. This process is called inertia welding.

Laser
welding is one of the newest processes. The laser was originally developed at
the Bell Telephone Laboratories as a communications device. Because of the
tremendous concentration of energy in a small space, it proved to be a powerful
heat source. It has been used for cutting metals and nonmetals. Continuous
pulse equipment is available. The laser is finding welding applications in
automotive metalworking operations.

1. NASCAR — Long before the rubber hits the road,
roughly 950 man-hours are spent on welding and fabrication for each race car. Hundreds
of parts are hand-cut, welded and machined, from the chassis and suspension to
the drivetrain.

         2. In 1961, General Motors installed the first industrial robot
in history, the Unimate. Featuring a motorized arm that weighed more than two
tons, the Unimate performed spot welds by following step-by-step commands
stored on a magnetic drum.

         3. Which famous comedian has a large
antique car and motorcycle collection and employs welders regularly? 
Jay Leno! His large collection includes models from the early 1900s to modern
vehicles.

         4. Explosion welding is a powerful welding process that can
accomplish what many other welding methods can’t—it can join nearly every kind
of metal together, even the most highly dissimilar ones.

         5. Welding in space was first attempted in 1969 by Russian
cosmonauts. Today, advances in welding technology have made it essential for
projects like the construction of the International Space Station.

         6. President Roosevelt, in a letter to Prime Minister Winston
Churchill, boasted about the discovery of new welding techniques that enabled America
to build ships with a speed unequaled in the history of shipbuilding.

         7. The first car made with an entirely plastic body was assembled
using ultrasonic welding. Even though plastic cars did not catch on, ultrasonic
welding did. Ultrasonic plastic welding is an example of a friction welding
process, which creates energy through high-intensity acoustic sounds that cause
plastic pieces to vibrate together and form a bond. 

         8. Did you know that if two pieces of metal touch in space, they
become permanently stuck together? This may sound unbelievable, but it is true.
Two pieces of metal without any coating on them will form into one piece in the
vacuum of space. This doesn’t happen on Earth because the atmosphere puts a
layer of oxidized material between the surfaces.

         9. More than 50% of U.S. products require welding. Do you know
which of the following products rely on welding?

Race cars

Bridges

Ships

Computers

Medical devices

Oil rigs

Farm equipment

Cell phones

Scooters

MP3 players

Answer: All of them 

         10. What is a “fume plume”? 
         It is the visible column of fume that rises directly from the spot of
welding or cutting.

         11. The current record for the world’s deepest underwater dry
weld, which is carried out in a chamber sealed around the structure to be
welded, was set by Global Industries in 1990, at 1,075
ft. deep. But that is only half as deep as the world’s record wet weld, set by
the U.S. Navy in 2005, at 2,000 ft. deep. Wet welding is performed underwater,
directly exposed to the watery environment.

         12. The earliest recorded welds occured in 3,500 B.C., the
Bronze-Age. Pictures of welders and their ancient tools have been discovered in
long-sealed Egyptian tombs!

MACHINE—TOOLS

Metal undergoes a number of
processes before it is formed into the required shape: casting, rolling,
welding, piercing, trimming, spinning, bending, drawing, etc.

The machines which perform all
these kinds of works are called machine-tools. The most common machine-tool
found in almost any workshop is the lathe. The main parts of it are: the
headstock, the chuck, the tailstock, the carriage.

The automatic lathe is a
perfection of the ordinary lathe. Its tools are changed automatically. A worker
skilled in the use of a lathe is called a turner.

There are many other
machine-tools that work on plane surfaces, for example, milling machines,
planning and shaping machines. Circular holes are drilled by a drilling machine
or bored by a boring machine or a boring mill. Thread milling machines are used
in the production of different machine elements. Gear cutting machines include
gear milling machines. All these
machines use cutting tools made of high-speed steel.

LATHES

There are three types of
lathes produced by our machine-tool manufacturing works: heavy, medium and
light types. The type of a lathe depends upon the size of diameter of work
pieces.

A most convenient and
efficient machine is the model combination lathe for turning, milling,
drilling, grinding, slotting, and tool-sharpening jobs. It can be used both in
stationary and mobile repair shops, on ships, etc.

DRILLING MACHINES

The most drilling machines are
equipped with mechanisms, permitting not only drilling, countersinking and
reaming, but also cutting female threads with the help of taps. Both universal
and special-purpose type radial «drills are built.

dinner and in the evening I have supper. Besides, I like to eat an apple or a banana,
or to drink a glass of juice between meals, if I’m thirsty. Yesterday I got up
at 7 o’clock, washed, cleaned teeth and dressed. Then I had breakfast. I had mashed
potatoes with meat, a cheese sandwich and a cup of tea for breakfast. At school
we had a pie and a glass of orange juice. I’m always hungry when I come home
after school.

Yesterday my mother cooked
cabbage soup’ roast chicken and rice, made pudding and tea. It was so tasty’ I
ate everything with pleasure. For supper we had pancakes with jam and sour cream.
These are my favourite things.

My meals

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

It goes without saying that I prefer to
have meals at home. At the weekend I like to get up late and have a good
breakfast of scrambled eggs, or pancakes, or something like that. But on
weekdays I’m always short of time in the morning. So I just have a cup of
strong tea or coffee and a couple of sandwiches.

As I spend a lot of time at school (usually
eight or nine hours) it’s necessary to have a snack at midday just to keep me
going. That’s why I have to go to the school canteen to have lunch. Our school
canteen leaves much to be desired. It has become a tradition with our canteen
to serve chops and watery mashed potatoes every day with a glass of cocoa or
stewed fruit.

But I enjoy my evening meal at home. My
mother is a wonderful cook and her dinners are always delicious and various.

To begin with, we usually have some salad —
tomato and cucumber salad or mixed salad (I like it very much). For the first
course we have some soup — noodle, mushroom or cabbage soup, or maybe some fish
soup for a change. For the main course we have meat, chicken or fish dishes,
for example, steak or fried fish with spaghetti or potatoes (boiled or fried).
We also have a lot of vegetables — green peas, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers. I
prefer meat to fish but my mother makes me eat fish from time to time. She says
it’s good for my brains.

For dessert we have some fruit, fruit juice
or just a cup of tea with a slice of cake.

On Sundays we sometimes go to McDonald’s. I like everything there: cheeseburgers,
hamburgers and Big Macs, apple pies and fruit cocktails. But unfortunately we
can’t afford to go there very often, because it’s rather expensive for a family
and besides, they say it’s not very healthy to eat at McDonald’s.

Salty fillings

The British Sandwich
Association was (dramatical / critical / indecisive)
of the findings.

«Sandwiches (involve
/ take / consist ) the assembly of
ingredients,» said Jim Winship, director of the organization.

«The fact is that the salt
is already in the ingredients – e.g. bacon or ham – so if consumers (sell
/ choose / give) a sandwich containing
these they are bound to have a higher salt content.»

But he stressed that on
average, the sandwiches surveyed had 2
g of salt – or a third of the (given / offered / recommended
) daily intake – and that these levels were not unreasonable.

Cash admitted that, given a
sandwich was often the main (point / thing / constituent
) of one of three meals in the day, containing a third of the
recommended daily intake of salt was not necessarily a problem.

«But it (does /
is / has) often combined with other things,»

Unit 5

English food

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст. Сделайте краткий конспект текста.
Составьте план для пересказа.

English food is full of
dishes that have strange names and wonderful flavours. Though the current
national dish is currently considered to be Chicken Tikka Masala, there is much
famous, more traditional fare to be enjoyed. All through the day, you can
tickle your taste buds with things like bubble and squeak, kedgeree, a Cornish
pasty, or a Devon scone. The food is complimented by the pleasant teas, ales,
and ciders specific to the nation of England as well. Whether you prefer
Edwardian culinary delights, Victorian tasty treats, or more contemporary fare,
you can explore the local cuisine all over the countryside and in the city as
well.

Start
your day off with a Full English breakfast, a substantial start to the day.
Traditional components to this traditional hearty breakfast are fried eggs,
fried toast, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, bangers (links of pork sausage fried
up in a skillet, sometimes exploding with a bang), rashers of bacon, and baked
beans. Some add black (blood) pudding or white pudding to the plate. Add a pot
of tea to the table and you have a spread worthy of lingering at the table on a
lazy weekend. If you are more inclined to a simpler, but still filling meal to
jumpstart the day, traditional English porridge will hit the spot. Devilled
kidneys on toast were once the breakfast food of choice. Brunches often include
kedgeree, a curried rice, haddock, and egg concoction.

         If you can think about lunch after that filling breakfast, you might
try a traditional sandwich like roast beef and horseradish or egg and
watercress. Cornish pasties are pastries filled with savoury meat and potatoes
are crimped closed and cooked to make them portable pies, perfect for a picnic
lunch. Fish and chips are also a traditional take-away English food. Grab some
from a fish and chips stand and keep on going, or sit back and relax while you
enjoy this deliciously fried treat. Hang out at a pub for steak and ale pie,
Ploughman’s, or smoked salmon.

         Afternoon tea is perhaps the most famous eating tradition in England. People around the world associate the nation with this repast. It starts with
crustless, dainty sandwiches, moves to cakes and scones, and is rounded off by
petit fours. All along the way you drink delicious English teas. English food
for afternoon tea is rich and indulgent, even though it was originally invented
as an afternoon pick-me-up. No matter the time of day, traditional English
delights can please your palate.

Unit 6

A Brief
Introduction to British food.

1.
Прочитайте и переведите текст.

Mealtimes:

In many European countries it is normal to
have a long break in the middle of the day when all members of the family
return to their houses to eat together. This is not very common in Britain because normally it is a long way from the place of work or school to the home.
Consequently the British people tend to have a big breakfast before they go to
work and the meal at midday is not spent with the members of the family but
with workmates or schoolmates. Lunch is normally eaten between 12.30 pm and
1.30pm. Most people finish work at five thirty. It often takes at least an hour
to get home from the school or workplace so people tend to eat their evening
meal or «dinner» between 6.30pm and 8pm.

On Sundays people don’t have to work so
they take the opportunity eat together with their family. Sunday lunch is
usually the best meal of the week and many of the meals which are considered
typically British are eaten for Sunday lunch. For example, roast beef and yorkshire pudding.

This is a typical British
family eating together on Sunday.
After lunch the father will smoke his pipe and read the newspaper sitting on
his favourite armchair 
while his wife washes the dishes. The children will play traditional English
games such
as hopscotch, skipping or doctors and nurses.

Although everyone in Britain understands that «breakfast» is the first meal of the day. There is a lot
of confusion about the words for other meals such as «dinner, lunch, tea, high tea ,
elevenses, brunch, supper» and
if you ask a British person what these words mean, most of them will give you a
different answer according to what part of the country they are from or from
what social class they are from. Another example of this is the pronunciation
of the word «scones» ( a type of cake eaten with Devonshire clotted
cream, strawberry jam and cups of tea, known as a «cream tea»)

Breakfast.

Generally speaking the British breakfast
is much bigger than in most other countries. Many people like to have a fried
breakfast which can consist of fried bacon and eggs with fried bread and
possibly fried tomatoes or black pudding. Of course not everybody wants to eat
a lot early in the morning and many people prefer to just eat toast and
marmalade with tea or coffee. Cereals are also very popular. The most common is
cornflakes. They are made with different grains such as corn, wheat, oats etc.
If you go to a Britsh supermarket you will see that there are many types of
cereals available. In Scotland many people eat «porridge» or boiled
oats. Porridge is very heavy but in the winter it will keep you warm on your
way to school.

Lunch

If you go to Britain to study English and
you stay with a family you will almost certainly be given a «packed
lunch» to eat for your midday meal. Some factories and schools have
canteens where you can eat but the packed lunch is the most common thing to
eat. A packed lunch normally consist of some sandwiches, a packet of crisps, an
apple and a can of something to drink, for example, coca-cola. The contents are
kept in a plastic container and you take it with you when you go to school or
work. The quality of the packed lunch can vary from terrible to very good, it
all depends on who makes it.

Dinner

Things are changing and most British
people eat meals from many different countries for example spagetti or curry.
In fact you could even say that the British don’t eat much British food.
However the most typical thing to eat for dinner is «meat and two
veg». This consists of a piece of meat accompanied by two different boiled
vegetables. This is covered with «gravy» which is a sauce made with
the juice that was obtained when the meat was cooked. One of the vegetables is
almost always potatoes. The British eat a lot of potatoes.

Vocabulary:

Glossary of typical English food.

Baked Beans

Baked beans are beans cooked in a tomato
sauce. They come in cans and are normally eaten on toast. The British are very
fond of baked beans.

Bangers and Mash. This is mashed potatoes with
sausages.

Black Pudding. A thick sausage made with blood
and fat.

Yorkshire pudding. A batter made with flour, eggs
and milk and cooked in the oven. This is most often eaten with roast beef for
Sunday lunch. (Batter is the same mixture that is used to make pancakes)

A Ploughman’s Lunch. This is a very popular thing
to eat if you go to eat in a «pub» at midday. It normally consists of
a bread roll with a piece of cheese and a pickled onion. By the way there are
many very good pickles that you can buy at the supermarket for example
«branston pickle». Branston Pickle is not sold in any other countries
but it is the perfect companion to cheese. (I always buy a jar when I go to England) British cheeses are very good. The most famous is Cheddar. Most of the cheeses are
named after the region from where they come from eg. Red Leicester, Cheshire
etc. There is a very good British blue cheese called Stilton although it can be
rather expensive.

Haggis. This is only normally eaten in Scotland. It is sheep’s intestine stuffed with meat and vegetables.

The Fish and Chip shop. You will almost certainly go to
a fish and chip shop when you visit Britain. It is a shop which cooks fried
potatoes called chips. They are usually accompanied by fish, pies, mushy peas,
etc. The chips used to be wrapped in newspaper but now white paper is used.
They often ask if you want salt and vinegar to be sprinkled over your chips. Be
careful because sometimes they give you too much!

Pie. A pie is some food surrounded by pastry
(pastry is a mixture of flour and butter). It is normally baked in the oven.
The content of the pie can be sweet or savory. Typical examples of pies are
«steak and kidney pie» or «apple pie». There are variations
of the pie such as Cornish pasties. Pasties were originally invented so that
working men could take their food to work with them. Someone told me that
miners in the Cornish tin mines invented the Cornish pasties. I suppose that if
you work in a mine it is too much trouble to come to the surface to have lunch.

Bread and Butter. When the British eat bread
they almost always cover it with butter or margarine. It is very common to see
a plate of bread and butter on table when you eat. You can use it to soak up the
gravy or juices left on your plate.

British Bread. British bread is very good and
if you go to the baker there are many different types of bread to choose from.
However, although the bread is very good, the most popular type of bread in Britain
is sliced white bread. This is sold in plastic packets and is not half as good
as the bread which you must cut yourself.

Baked beans – тушёная фасоль

Unit 7

Russian cuisine

1.
Прочитайте и переведите текст, используя слова после текста.

There have always been two
types of Russian cuisine — on the one hand, the aristocratic, rich style, and on
the other hand – a peasant, simple, everyday style. Russian people loved chicken
(turkey emerged at the beginning of the 17th century). Veal was not eaten. Russian
kitchens only boiled, steamed or simmered food. Food was never heated in fat (butter).
 

During the times of the Rus,
many different kinds of bread, cakes and pirogs were baked and filled with
things which were in the house, farm, garden, field, or forest: chicken,
vegetables, peas and beans, fruit, berries or mushrooms. The rivers were full of
fish, so

Pirogs filled with all types of fish were
very common. Chicken pirogs were eaten on public holidays. Meat was eaten boiled
and on special occasions at the end of the meal like blessed food. There was no
shortage of soup, especially vegetable soup: borsch, stchi – a soup made from marinated
cabbage. Other, favourite was the famous Russian kasha. So there is a Russian saying
: “ Stchi and kasha is all we ever get to eat».

The cuisine of the aristocracy
preferred the blinse cakes (pancakes) or towers, which were invented by Russian
gourmands and comprised blinses of all manner — of different fillings piled up
on top of each other. In the times of Catherine 11 it became fashionable to
serve French and Russian meals at receptions, followed by delicious desserts
and exotic fruits. The evening meal at the tsarist court comprised 80 courses
for each person. There were hot broths, marinated chicken, rabbit, tortoise,
sausages, pirogues, salads, oysters, bitter oranges, pastry, blinses, sweets.

It is of upmost importance for the
Russian hospitality to set a rich table. Blinses are still very popular both by
themselves or filled with meat, fish, caviar, and sour cream. Originally, they
symbolized the sun.

These traditions still exist. They
have survived – at family dinners, friendly parties at the

kitchen, even in the kitchens of the communal
apartments food , where every housewife, and sometimes houseman cooked his or
her own special dish. To this very day, the greatest praise which can be said
to a cook is that it “tastes as if it were homemade”.      And foreigners can’t
believe their eyes: “What? You can do all that at home?”

Russian Cuisine

Russian cuisine is rich and
varied. In Russia there is a large variety of milk products: a sort of dry,
granulated cream cheese called «tvorog», thick sour cream called
«smetana», and several types of sour milk products of the yoghourt
type. Smetana can be used with almost anything: a dollop of it in the soup, a
spoonful eaten with meat dish, or strawberries and apples sliced up small and
eaten mixed with smetana. It is also used on pancakes. Smetana is an almost
universal flavouring sauce, or if you like, it can be drunk by the glassful
with or without sugar. Smetana is made from cream. It contains 2,5% of protein,
20 — 40% of fats, lactic acid. One hundred grams contain 203 kilo-calory.

Kefir is a pleasant, useful beverage made
from cow’s milk, yeast and lactic acid bacteria. It’s a dietary product. Ryazhenka
is a sour milk product made from baked milk, very pleasant to taste.

There is a big choice of
appetizers, soups, hot and dessert dishes. You can recommend your guests soft,
pressed and red caviar. Its vitamin content is especially high. Then, of
course, salmon, hot and cold smoked sturgeon, pikeperch in aspic or stuffed,
herring, red herring, Baltic salt-sprats; fried, smoked, marinated smelt and
the like.

As for cold meat dishes our
guests can taste ham, lean cold boiled pork with spices (buzhenina), jellied
tongue, meat jelly and horse-radish sauce and various salads beginning with
salad «Stolychnii» up to Russian salad. For a change you can taste
frozen apples. They are delicious. Russian blini with caviar and mushrooms in
thick sour cream

sauce are popular hot appetizers.

How about soups? There are
plenty of them. Fresh cabbage meat shchee, shchee «Petrovskie» (cooked
from soodak fish and fresh cabbage), Moscow borshch, kidney and cucumber soup
(rassolnik), meat and fish sawlyanka, ookha (special fisherman’s soup),
mushroom soup and soups in season — okroshka and cold beetroot soup are very
popular with our guests. For the hot dish guests can order pike-perch in white
wine or fried, sturgeon of all kind — boiled, steamed or on a spit, fried
burbot or carp in thick sour-cream sauce or meat dishes to their taste:
beef-Stroganoff and mashed potatoes,

roast veal, special pot-roast stuffed
cabbage-rolls (golubtsy), Siberian pelmeni, suckling with buckwheat
«kasha», stewed rabbit and hare and so on. Now a few words about
buckwheat «kasha» which may be eaten with meat like potatoes as well
as a cereal with butter or milk. It’s very popular in our country because it’s
a very useful product.

It’s recommended for stout people, for
people suffering from diabetes. Buckwheat kasha purifies our organism and makes
us stronger.

There is a large variety of
poultry and game dishes: roast chicken, roast duck and goose stuffed with
apples and sauerkraut, roast partridge, hazel-grouse, wood-grouse, wood-cock,
black-cock, pheasant and quail. They are juicy and tender dishes.

How about dessert? For dessert
you can have baked apples, fruit and berry kissels (made from fruit or berry
juice and potato flour), compot (made from dried stewed fruit mixed), dessert
fruits: aromatic melons from Middle Asia, watermelons from the Volga, juicy
grapes, pears, apricots, peaches, tangerines, oranges. And at last Goorievskaya
kasha. This dessert dish was made in honour of the victory over Napoleon in the
war of 1812. Taste it!

These dishes are served at the
Russian restaurants «Sadko», «Troyka», «Okolitsa»
and at many other fashionable restaurants in our city.

Russian cuisine is famous for
its Russian pies which were baked in Russia in good old times and remain
popular nowadays. They are: kulebiaka (a Russian pie with meat or cabbage
filling), rastegay (a pie with special fish filling), open curd tarts (vatrushJa),
honey-cakes, twists of bread (krendeli), boubliki (thick ring-shaped rolls),
baranki (ring-shaped rolls), sooshki (small ring-shaped crackers), Russian
Easter cakes and various fancy-cakes.

As for drinks we should
recommend fruit and berry beverages: morse, kvas and zbiten (an old Russian
beverage made from kvas, cognac or vodka, honey, tea and spices). Welcome to
our restaurants!

Russian Food and Cuisine.

Every country in the world has its own cuisine.

We have certain
associations when we speak about French, Italian or Mexican cuisine.

They all have
something characteristic about themselves. What associations do have when we
speak about Russian food and Russian cuisine. One can state that Russian food
is what Russian people usually eat. However, considering how large a country Russia
is and how many cultures there are in Russia, it is difficult to say that
Russians in Moscow and in a small village have the same meals. Life in cities
is quick-paced, city dwellers are always rushing somewhere. That’s why the fast
food is becoming more and more popular in cities.

Yet, traditional Russian food is much tastier and
healthier that the fast food.

To understand our
national cuisine, one should remember that Russia is a northern country in the
most part and that our winters are rather long and sometimes very cold.

That means that
the food should be such as to give us enough energy.

Among most popular
components of Russian dishes are: potato, eggs, butter, bread, and meat. Very
popular are milk products like sour cream, and curds; as well as fresh fruit
and vegetables. Russian cuisine enjoys quite a number of authentic national
dishes for every part of a meal, be it appetizers, soups, main courses,
desserts, or beverages.

Appetizers are
usually served before main courses.

We often start our meals with various salads.

I would say that
medley (vinegret) is probably loved by everybody in Russia.

To cook medley, we
mix boiled potato, carrot, and beet as well as salted cucumbers chopped in more
or less equal cube-like pieces and add oil.

For many festive
occasions, we cook so called “seledka pod shuboi”, or herring under coat. To
make it, one has to boil potato, carrot, and beet; then grate all these
ingredients and place them on a plate in layers covering a layer of chopped
herring and finally dress it with mayonnaise. This salad is an extremely
popular New Year dish.

There is probably
no family in Russia not including this salad into its New Year or birthday
menu.

Let’s now turn to the Russian soups, which are an
essential part of afternoon meals.

The classical
Russian soup is borsch, or red-beet soup made of beet, meat, potato, and mostly
served with sour cream, although some might prefer mayonnaise.

Very
characteristic of Russian cuisine is okroshka, or cold soup made of cold kvass
with different vegetables, chopped boiled eggs and spices.

Among other kinds
of soup I would like to mention ukha, or fish-soup, mushroom soup, chicken
soup. After soups come main courses as a rule.

Main courses are
eaten at afternoon and evening meals. Usually they include meat and/or
vegetables with garnishes. For the meat part, we can have cutlets or chops,
fried fish or sausages. For garnishes, we might have potato or kashas, of which
there are many kinds to choose from: buckwheat, rice and other. Very often
pelmeny, or ravioli are mentioned among Russia-originated dishes. Strictly
speaking, it is not. Yet, these small squares of pasta containing minced meat
and spices are very popular in Russia.

Although you can
find dozens of pelmeny brands in the shops, we prefer legendary home-made
pelmeny. Sometimes, instead of meat we use potato or curds and call this
pelmeny-like dish vareniks.

After all these tasty things, it’s time for Russian
desserts. Pancakes are always welcome as a dessert and are usually served with
jam, honey or sour cream.

Pastries with
berries, apples, and other fruit are also part of Russian food tradition.

Among traditional
Russian beverages, to my mind, mors, kissel and kvass are most typical. Kissel
is made of sweetened fruit puree and mors, which is a kind of berry drink, is
made of cranberries, black-currants, or other berries. Kvass is an original
Russian beverage made of stale bread and is probably most popular among
traditional beverages.

Ukrainian Cuisine

If you happen to come to Ukraine
you should taste a real Ukrainian borshch. It is sour-sweet, aromatic, tasty
and nourishing. It is served with local fancy-dumplings called pampoushki and
ga- loushki. The main thing in cooking borshch is in the following: you should
put vegetables in a definite order. And secondly. Borshch will be tastier if
beetroot is stewed, carrots and onions — fried. The word «borshch» originates
from old-slavonik «borshch» — beetroot which is the main ingredient
of this dish. Now borshch is cooked in all regions of our country with local
variants. Don’t fail to taste chicken cutlets Kiev style and Ukrainian vareniki
(cottage cheese or cherry dumplings). A great variety of local buns, cakes and
dishes of all kind are recommended to the guests in Ukraine.

British Cuisine

Some people criticize English
food. They say it’s unimaginable, boring, tasteless, it’s chips with everything
and totally overcooked vegetables. The basic ingredients, when fresh, are so
full of flavour that British haven’t had to invent sauces to disguise their

natural taste. What can compare with fresh
pees or new potatoes just boiled and served with butter? Why drown spring lamb
in wine or cream and spices, when with just one or two herbs it is absolutely
delicious? If you ask foreigners to name some typically English dishes, they
will probably say «Fish and chips» then stop. It is disappointing, but
true that, there is no tradition in England of eating in restaurants, because
the food doesn’t lend itself to such preparation. English cooking is found at
home. So it is difficult to find a good English restaurant with a reasonable
prices. In most cities in Britain you’ll find Indian, Chinese, French and
Italian restaurants. In London you’ll also find Indonesian, Mexican, Greek…
Cynics will say that this is because English have no «cuisine»
themselves, but this is not quite the true.

Vocabulary:

to criticize — критиковать

tasteless — безвкусный

overcooked —
переваренный

ingredient —
ингредиент, составная часть

to invent — изобретать

sauces — соус

to disguise — скрыть

spice —
специя, пряность

herb — трава

delicious —
очень вкусный

disappointing — обидно

to lend — одалживать

cuisine — кухня

various appetizers, soups, hot and cold dishes. A great variety of green
vegetables is used in making appetizers. They are: egg-plants, tomatoes,
string-beans, cabbage, sauerkraut, cauliflower, beets, potatoes, garlic, brown
onions, spinach and also greens, spices, mushrooms, eggs and walnuts. The
latter are used in making sauces to dishes of all kind. What appetizers can

Let us add a few words about
baked items. We all know kha- chapouri — pies with cheese and egg filling. But
not everybody knows that khachapouri can be baked with potatoes, kidney-beans
or top beets. Then go pies with raisins and walnuts, honey pies and sweet,
delicious gozinaky (shelled chopped walnuts boiling with honey). Gozinaky is a
traditional New-Year dish. For tea you can have a great variety of jams:
apricot, sweet cherries, water-melon, fig, quince and even green tomato jams.

Unit 9

Meals and cooking.

1.
Прочитайте текст. Выпишите из текста все выделенные слова и словосочетания. Переведите их.

Living in Russia one cannot but stick to a Russian
diet. Keeping this diet for an Englishman is fatal. The Russians have
meals four times a day and their cuisine is quite intricate.

Every person starts his or her day with breakfast.
Poor English­men are sentenced to either a continental or an English
breakfast. From the Russian point of view, when one has it continental it
ac­tually means that one has no breakfast at all, because it means drinking
a cup of coffee and eating a bun. A month of continental breakfasts
for some Russians would mean starving. The English breakfast is a bit
better, as it consists of one or two fried eggs, grilled sausages, bacon,
tomatoes and mushrooms. The English have tea with milk and
toast with butter and marmalade. As a choice one may have corn flakes
with milk and sugar or porridge.

In Russia people may have anything for
breakfast. Some good-humoured individuals even prefer soup, but, of course,
sandwiches and coffee are very popular. One can easily understand that
in Great Britain by one o’clock people are very much ready for lunch.
Lunch is the biggest meal of the day. That would be music for a Russian’s ears
until he or she learns what lunch really consists of. It may be a meat or
fish course with soft drinks followed by a sweet course.

         The heart of
a Russian person fills with joy when the hands of the clock approach three
o’clock. His or her dinner includes three courses. A Russian will have a
starter (salad, herring, cheese, etc.), soup, steaks, chops, or fish
fillets with garnish, a lot of bread, of course, and
something to drink. The more the better. At four or five the Russians may
have a bite: waffles, cakes with juice, tea, cocoa, or something of
the kind.

In Great Britain they have dinner at five or six.
Soup may be served then, but one should not be misled by the word
«soup». British soup is just thin paste and a portion
is three times smaller than in Russia. A lot of British prefer to eat out.
«Fish and Chips» shops are very popular with their take-away
food. The more sophisticated public goes to Chinese, Italian, seafood
or other restaurants and ex­periments with shrimp, inedible vegetables
and hot drinks.

Supper in Russia means one more big meal at seven. The table groans with
food again. In England it is just a small snack — a glass of milk
with biscuits at ten.

Most Russians have never counted calories and
they are deeply convinced that their food is healthy. Some housewives
may admit that it takes some time to prepare all the stuff, including pickles,
home-made preserves and traditional Russian pies and pancakes. But
they don’t seem to mind too much and boil, fry, roast, grill, broil, bake
and make. Paraphrasing a famous proverb one can say:

‘What is
a Russian man’s meat is a British man’s poison’*.

* What is one man’s meat is another man’s poison — Что
русскому хорошо, то немцу — смерть (поcл.).

To travel through the whole of England
is to realize what a rich and varied country it is. From one county to the next
you could be on a different island, this being particularly true of the East
and West coasts, the North of England and the South. The food from place to
place varies, too. The thick clotted cream of Cornwall and Devonshire does not
travel far from where it was made, any more than the succulent Cumberland
sausage leaves Cumbria. The wildfowl of the Fens do not mingle with the fat Aylesbury
ducklings and Lincolnshire stuffed chine also stays at home. The English are
rightly proud of their heritage and today, amongst the welter of take-always
and fast food places, they are even more determined to keep it alive.
Traditions sometimes connected with food are not lost either.

         The Reverend
Sydney Smith (1771—1845), the witty, food-loving canon of St. Paul’s wrote: ‘I
am convinced that charac­ter, talents, virtues and qualities are powerfully
affected by beef, mutton, pie crust and rich soup.’

Dinner at a Restaurant

Yesterday was my day out. My friend Nick and I had
dinner at the restaurant.  At   one  
o’clock we   were   at   the   «Metropol».   The waiter showed  us  in  and  we  took  a  table  by 
the  window.   The waiter brought us the menu and recommended some
appetizers and dishes.  For  a  snack  we 
had  soft  caviar, jellied  tongue  and  mixed green  salads.   The   snacks   looked   very appetizing.   Then  
Nick   had chicken rice soup. I
ordered beef-tea and a meat patty. For the main course we had fried pike-perch and new potatoes.  Our dinner was delicious.  For a drink we ordered special lemon
beverage and for dessert pears,
oranges and ice-cream. The waiter served us very well. We paid the bill, thanked the waiter and left the
restaurant-hall. We had a hearty meal.
I think the meals at the «Metropol» are very good. Then
we went to the bar for coffee and cigarettes. Some guests ordered rich sweets, nuts and cocktails.

Visit to Dietician

D r. J о n e s: Good morning, Mrs. Fat. Sit down, please.

Mrs. Fat:    Good morning. Dr. Jones. Do you mind if I sit on the sofa?

D r. J о n e s: No, not at аll. You can take any seat you like. So you
would tike to lose weight, wouldn’t you?

Mrs. Fat:    Exactly. I’ve been overweight all my life and now I think it’s time
I started dieting.

D r. J o n e s: Oh, yes. I see. You know… before I can recom­mend
you a particular diet I must team all about your eating habits. How many meals
a day do you normally have?

Mrs. Fat:    I usually have only three meals a day. I mean breakfast, lunch and
dinner, but unfortunately I very often eat between meals.

D r. J о n e s: What do you have for breakfast?

Mrs. Fat:    A traditional English breakfast. I have a glass of orange juice, a
bowl of cereal and bacon and eggs. And then I drink tea.

D r. J о n e s: Do you take milk in your tea?

Mrs. Fat:    I normally drink tea with cream, though I realize that I should
have it with skimmed milk.

D r. J о n e s: And what about lunch?

Mrs. Fat:    Well, that depends. On some days I just have a couple of sandwiches
for lunch, but sometimes I also have a bowl of soup and cakes or pies to
follow.

Dr. Jones: What do you have for dinner and when do you have it?

Mrs. Fat:    I normally have dinner at 8 p.m. I know it’s a bit too late, it
just happens so. What do I have? You know, I like to have a very substantial
din­ner — a starter, like a salad or assorted meat, followed by a main course
such as beefsteak or fish and chips and then dessert and tea or coffee.

D r. J о n e s: What do you have for dessert as a rule?

Mrs. Fat:    Ice-cream or cakes, or both.

D r. J о n e s: And what do you eat between meals?

Mrs. Fat:    Peanuts, chocolate, popcorn, crisps and stuff. Sometimes I just
like to nibble candies.

D r. J о n e s: In fact, many people do the same and yet they have no
problems with excess weight. Let me see… Do you fry one or two eggs with your
ba­con in the morning?

Mrs. Fat:    I actually take eight eggs, but I share my break­fast with my
toy-poodle dog.

D r. J о n e s: I see. Here is my prescription: Don’t change your
diet. Change your dog. Replace it with a Labrador. Or keep both dogs and share
all your meals with them. And here is the telephone number of a vet, who is a
very good dog dietician, just in case your dogs might need a cor­rection of
their diet.

Alcohol

The attitude to alcohol is ambivalent. On
the one hand-it’s accepted and welcomed as an integral part of the  British
culture. On the other hand, the puritan tradition has led to the widespread
view that drinking is smth potentially dangerous which should be restricted.

Pubs (public house): The nearest pub is commonly referred
as ‘local” & people who go there often know as “regular”. Notable aspect is
appeal to the idea of tradition. The most has the old name with old-fashion,
rural associations, such as: The Sheep Shear es, The Duke of Cambridge,)

People can’t be served in pubs until 18.
The pub should have a special children’s certificate allowing children inside
on until they are 14.

All pubs is looked old, have very small
windows helping pubs fell homely.

In order to not proper for people to be
seen drinking just few pubs have tables outside. Instead many have a garden at
the back.

Nearly all pubs are owned by a brewery.The
landlord is simply employed by brewery as its manager.

The few pubs are privately owned proudly advertise
themselves as “free houses”. As result they have the wider line of beers.

The notable aspect – the pubs there are no
waiter services. You should fetch your drink yourself in the bar.

The pubs still have to close at their
advertised closing time. The tradition of “closing time” have remained in
place.

Food
Equipment Can Be Dangerous

Modern cooking and food processing equipment has an
extraordinary capacity to burn, cut, smash, mangle, and amputate parts of the
tender human body. This may sound like a harsh way to begin a chapter, but the
intent is not to intimidate you or scare you but to inspire a healthy respect
for the importance of proper safety and operating procedures.

Never use a piece of equipment until you are
thoroughly familiar with its operation and all its features. You must also
learn how to know when a machine is not operating correctly.

When this happens, shut it down immediately and report
the malfunction to a supervisor.

Your Hands Are Your Best Tools

Machines are intended to be
labor saving devices. However, the usefulness of specialized processing
equipment often depends on the volume of food it handless. It takes less time
for a cook to slice a few pounds of onions by hand than to set up a slicing
attachment, pass the onions through it, and break down and clean the equipment.
This is why it is important to develop good manual skills.

TYPES OF COOKTOPS

1. Open elements (burners), either electric coils or gas flames. These
tops are

the fastest to
heat and can be turned off after short use. However, cooktop

space is limited
to one pot per burner.

2. Flattop or hot top (lightweight). Burners covered with
steel plate. More cook

space is
available. Top supports moderately heavy weights.

3. Heavy-duty flattop. Burners covered with heavy cast steel.

4. Induction cooktops. The top of an induction unit does not become hot.
Rather, it works by magnetically agitating the molecules in steel or iron
cookware so the cookware becomes hot. As a result, much less energy is used and
the kitchen stays cooler, because only the pots and pans and their contents
become hot.

8. Прочитайте текст, переведите, составьте краткий

Ovens

The oven and the range top are the two workhorses of
the traditional kitchen. Ovens are enclosed spaces in which food is heated,
usually by hot air or, in some newer kinds of ovens, by microwaves or infrared
radiation.

In addition to roasting and baking, ovens can do many
of the jobs normally done on the range top. Many foods can be simmered, stewed,
braised, or poached in the oven, freeing the range top and the chef’s attention
for other tasks.

There are many kinds of ovens beyond those discussed
here, but they are often for specialty or high-volume uses. These include conveyor
ovens, which carry foods through the oven on a steel conveyor belt; holding
ovens or warmers, which are designed to hold many types of foods at serving
temperatures for extended periods without drying out or overcooking (this
category includes ovens that also cook the food, then automatically switch to
holding temperature); and high-volume roll-in ovens, with large doors
into which one can roll carts loaded with trays of food.

Processing Equipment

                              Mixers     

Vertical mixers are important
and versatile tools for many kinds of food mixing and processing jobs, both in
the bakeshop and in the kitchen.

Food Cutter

The food cutter or rotation chopper,
familiarly known as the buffalo chopper, is a common piece of equipment
used for general food chopping. A variety of attachments (described in the next
section) makes it a versatile tool.

Capacity measures are given in
Imperial pints and fractions of pints with small amounts in spoon measures.

Liquid ingredients may also be
given in cups. These follow the English measures, i.e. 1
pint equals 2 cups (U.S.A.— 2V2 cups).

All spoon measures refer to the
British Standards Institution based on the V2-ounce table-spoon. The American standard
measuring spoons are slightly smaller in capacity than the British ones. The proportion,
however, is similar in that 3 American tea-spoons equal 1 table-spoon.

All measures are levelled off
to the rim of the spoon.

Metric Equivalents

It is rather difficult to convert
from English measures with absolute accuracy, but 1
oz. is equal to approximately 30 grammes, 2
lb. 3 oz. is equal to 1 kilogramme. For liquid measure, 3/4 English pints may be
regarded as equal to 1 litre.

The recipes

1. Переведите рецепты на русский язык.

1. Hot chocolate.

Heat 600 ml (1
pint) milk, add 100g (4 oz) chopped plain or bitter chocolate and stir, when
melted, bring to a simmer and whisk for 3 minutes. Sweeten to taste. Pour hot
into cups and top with whipped cream.

2. Oat cakes.

Sift flour into a bowl and add salt. Rub in fat until
texture resembles breadcrumbs. Add currant, lemon juice and rind, then mix to a
fairly firm dough with about 4 tablespoons water or milk and water. Divide the
dough into 4 pieces and put on to a floured surface. Roll into circles and fry
in the oil until brown all over. Drain well and eat hot, sprinkled with sugar.

3. Ham baked with chestnuts.

Mash the chestnuts well, add the sugar and either
butter or cream and some pepper. Lay the ham on a board and stuff it with as
much of this as will hold, then press together and secure. Put into an
ovenproof dish. Make a criss-cross pat­tern with a sharp knife on the top of
the ham. Mix the breadcrumbs into the rest of the chestnut mixture and press
this over the top. Put the ham into a pre-heated oven at 200° С
(400° F) for about 1/2 hour or until the top is crisp.

  1. RICHMOND MAIDS OF HONOUR

  These little almond
cakes are said to have been first made at Richmond Palace when Henry VIII was
king. The young girl who first made them gave her recipe to a Mr. Billet, who,
after her death, opened a «Maids of Honour» shop in Richmond. The se­cret
was kept in the family for many generations. However, a certain Mr. Newen went
to work in Mr. Billet’s shop and bought the recipe from the owner for a
thousand guineas. The present Mr. Newen still makes them by hand at 288
Kew Road, Kew Gar­dens.

  2. TOAD-IN-THE-HOLE

  The
dish was often served at country hotels, or pubs, in the last century.
Toad-in-the-Hole has deteriorated very much over the years. Up until the 1920s
it was often made with good steak, chopped into pieces, some­times with some
kidneys added, but nowadays it is more often served made with sausages. It can
be ex­tremely good eaten piping hot from the oven.

  3. TWEED KETTLE

  Salmon from the Tweed
river is well known for its flavour and the tradi­tional methods of cooking
preserve that delicacy. The pan in which the salmon is cooked is always called
a fish kettle.

  A. 900g (2
lb.) fresh salmon, middle cut or tail end, salt and pepper, pinch of nut­meg,
water, 1 small onion, chopped, 3 tablespoons whi­te wine vinegar, 2 tablespo­ons

MILK

One of the most important foods for human
beings in general and children in particular is milk. Milk also serves as a basis
for other important foods. We have, for instance, butter and many different,
kinds of cheese. Then milk itself is prepared in different ways specially for
children and people in poor health, all of whom need greater care and attention
than people in ordinary good health do.

Milk is also used in preparation of cakes,
some kinds of bread and sweets. Milk chocolate, for instance, is greatly used
by the explorers and others who go far from the places where people generally
live, and who must carry the food they need along with them. When milk has been
dried, it becomes very light powder which is also used by those who need food
that is light in weight. Besides milk powder, condensed milk is also produced and
sold in tins. There is generally some sugar in condensed milk.

CEREALS

A typical grain is wheat which is the staple food in
many countries. Wheat grows in the field. Combines are machines which cut the
wheat and thresh the grain. Grains are the wheat’s
seeds. When the grain is separated from the husk, it is stored’-in barns, in
silos or in elevators. Then wheat is transported to the flour-mills. There it
is ground into flour.

Bread and cakes are made out of this flour. Grain is
also used in brewing. It may also be pounded or milled and then sold in the
form of grouts. Grouts are used lin garnishes and can make a separate
dish—porridge or gruel (kasha).

What is High Tea?

1.
Прочитайте и переведите тескт.

The drinking of tea not only
became a social event for the upper classes, it altered the time and manner in
which they took tea. Afternoon Tea became the bridge between meals because many
wouldn’t eat their evening meal until maybe 8pm. As such, Afternoon Tea became
a ‘mini meal’ in itself.

This was all well and good
for the upper classes, but the working classes ran to a different schedule and
a different budget. Tea was still quite expensive at the time and the working
classes could not afford to waste it on anything other than necessities. A
wearied factory worker wouldn’t arrive home until six in the evening, and when
he did, he was famished! Thus, in the industrial areas of the UK
(northern England and southern Scotland), the working classes evening meal
evolved: high tea.

Family

this photograph as a poster

English High Tea usually
involved a mug of tea, bread, vegetables, cheese and occasionally meat.
Variations on high tea could include the addition of pies, potatoes and
crackers.

So while Afternoon Tea was
largely a social event for their upper class counterparts, high tea was a
necessary meal in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This traditional
high tea still exists for some parts of the North and Scotland.

Why is it called ‘high tea’?

A possible explanation why
this type of meal was called high tea is the fact that it was eaten at a table.
In comparison, Afternoon Tea was taken whilst seating in low, comfortable chairs
or sofas. Of course, soon after, the upper classes developed their own
variation and also called it ‘high tea’. It was a meal that could be eaten when
their servants were away or not available, as it was so easy to prepare. The
upper class ‘high tea’ involved the amalgamation of Afternoon Tea and high tea,
with the addition of pigeon, veal, salmon and fruit.

It is important to add that
the Afternoon Tea menu served in the UK today is often refered to as high tea
in many other parts of the world. Because of this some hotels, such as The Ritz
in London, use the term ‘High tea in London’ to advertise their Afternoon Tea
because a large proportion of their customers are from overseas.

Some venues do serve a
special high tea menu, in addition to Afternoon Tea, which includes additional
savoury items such as Welsh Rarebit, English muffins, pies or omelette.

What is Tea?

Tea is a drink that is
produced from the combination of cured leaves of the Camellia Sinensis (tea)
plant with hot water. Tea is the second most popular beverage in the world,
after water. The Camellia Sinensis plant thrives growing in tropical and
sub-tropical climates, hence its origins on the continents of Asia and Africa.

The first recorded
consumption in the history of tea was in China, as early as the 10th century
BC. Soon, it spread to Korea and Japan. During the 16th century Portuguese
exploration of the Far East, tea was traded with the West and as a result, the
tea plant spread to the rest of the world. It has been said that Catherine of
Braganza, the Portuguese queen consort to King Charles II, introduced the
drinking of tea in the UK. 

It wasn’t until the 19th
century until tea drinking became a common pastime for all the social classes.
Now, tea drinking occurs as a daily occurrence not just as a component of
afternoon tea or a tea party. In the UK, it has become a ‘national drink’ of
sorts and an integral part of British culture.

There are (at least)
four different types of tea: white tea, green tea, oolong tea and black
tea. The type of tea depends on the type of tea processing it undergoes. Tea
leaves are prone to wilt and therefore oxidise, if they are not dried quickly.
As the chlorophyll breaks down, the tea leaves darken and release tannins; this
process is called fermentation in the tea industry. 

Tea as we know it in the UK
is more often sold as teabags. Most popular brands of teabags are usually made
by blending a variety of different teas together. Tea is renowned for
containing numerous antioxidants and less caffeine than coffee. There are also
certain teas used in diets and tea for weight loss.
