SPECIAL ENGLISH TECHNOLOGY REPORT

1. Cathy Hutchinson is a tetraplegic. She has not been able to move her arms, legs or speak since suffering a stroke nearly fifteen years ago. Recently, she learned how to control a robotic arm using her thoughts. She now can use brain activity to serve herself a drink. The American woman is one of two people who took part in a research project known as Brain Gate.
2. The researchers have spent years studying how to help people who are paralyzed regain movement in their arms and legs.
3. John Donoghue was part of the project. He is a neuroscientist with Brown University and the Department of Veterans Affairs. He says people who are paralyzed have their brain disconnected from their body. So he and other researchers decided to go around the damaged nervous system. They developed a way to go directly from the brain to the outside world. The two paralyzed people had small sensors connected to the part of the brain that controls movement. The devices measured brain activity and sent that information to a computer. The computer has special software that turns the information into digital commands for operating other devices. The researchers used a highly developed robotic arm to recreate human actions.
4. The Brain Gate team had its first success in 2006. A tetraplegic victim was able to use the brain-computer interface system to control a computer cursor. John Donoghue says that the latest development using robotic arms is a major victory. A video of the experiment shows Cathy Hutchinson using such an arm to pick up a cup of coffee. She guides the cup toward her mouth, moves it forward and drinks through a straw. The researchers are calling the information very promising. But they say it will take years to fully develop the technology for everyday use.

6. Перепишите следующие вопросы и дайте письменные ответы. Переведите предложения.

1. What is the goal of the Brain Gate project?
2. What do scientists offer for tetraplegic people to recreate their movements?

QUALITY OR QUANTITY

You didn't ask for it, and you might not know about it. But you've probably already eaten some of it. It's genetically engineered food. Perfectly round tomatoes all exactly the same size, long straight cucumbers and big fat chickens are now a normal part of our diets. They are made that way by genetic engineering — not by nature. Their genes have been changed.

Every living thing has genes. They are passed on from generation to generation. They make sure that humans give birth to humans and cows give birth to cows. They also make sure that a dog cannot give birth to a frog or an elephant.

Genetic engineers take genes from one species — for example, a scorpion, and transfer them to another — for example corn. In this way a new life form is created. Genetic engineers put duck genes into chickens to make the chickens bigger. They put hormones into cows to make them produce more milk. This does not make them cheaper, tastier or healthier. It makes them easier and faster for the farmer to grow.

The effects of genetic engineering on our health are not known. Many of the genes which are used — such as those of scorpions, rats, mice and moths — are not part of our diet so we do not know how dangerous they may be. For example, people can develop allergies to food which has been genetically engineered. The effects of genetic engineering on the natural world may be disastrous. The engineers may create life forms — monsters — that we cannot control.

Some people believe, though, that genetic engineering could be the solution to the problem of famine.

We would all like a better, healthier and longer life, and genetic engineering might give us this. On the other hand, it may be a dangerous experiment with nature.

6. Перепишите следующие вопросы и дайте письменные ответы. Переведите предложения.

1. How tomatoes are made perfectly round?
2. What does every living thing have that can be changed and modified by scientists?
3. What is the main aim of genetic engineering?

OUR UNIVERSITY AND MY SPECIALITY

(CT)

Let me introduce myself. My full name is Murad . I am a second-year student of Tver

State Technical University.

Tver Technical University is one of the biggest higher schools in our country. Tver Technical University was established in 1922 as Moscow Peat Institute. In 1958 it was transferred to Kalinin. In 1965 Peat Institute was reorganized into polytechnic. In 1994 it was renamed into Tver State Technical University.

Every year highly-qualified specialists for national economy graduate from the University. They are chemical engineers, mechanical engineers, economists, ecologists, managers, systems engineers and many others.

About 5 000 students study at Tver Technical University. The University consists of six studying buildings and several dormitories. The class-rooms and lecture-halls, laboratories and workshops are equipped with up-to-date instruments, computers, machine-tools, audio-visuals and other training appliances. There is a rich library, four reading-rooms, dining halls and a sports complex at the disposal of students. So the University has all the facilities necessary for successful studies and rest.

Education at the University is organized in two forms: full-time and extra-mural.

I am taking an extra-mural course at the Institute of Additional Professional Education of the university.

My future speciality will be connected with building and construction or civil engineering.

The term engineering is a modem one. The art of building houses, palaces, temples, roads, and other structures was known many thousand years ago. Now we call it civil engineering. As time went on the art of civil engineering was enriched with new achievements of science. It grew into a profession that required college training. Nowadays we may speak of civil engineering as of an important branch of national economy.

Construction is nowadays based on the wide introduction of advanced industrial technology. That is why we are trained to use special graphics and design computer applications for construction and building, mathematical modeling and calculations.

A large-scale construction program is carried out in our country and I think it will be possible to find a proper job after graduation.

FACEBOOK ADMITS SOCIAL MEDIA CAN HARM MENTAL HEALTH

(1) Facebook has released new research suggesting social media can harm mental health when used in certain ways,

(2) Research suggested that social media users who spent a lot of time only reading information - but not interacting with others - reported feeling worse afterward. Users who had interaction during the experience reported having better feelings.

(3) The report noted that some research makes a strong connection between technology use and teen depression. Problems may arise because mobile phones have redefined relationships, creating a state of people being "alone together" Some people become depressed by looking at social media profiles and posts of others and then making negative comparisons to themselves.

(4) Nevertheless, a study by Carnegie Mellon University suggested positive results for increased interaction. It found people who sent or received more messages and comments on their personal pages reported better improvements in social support, depression and loneliness.

(5) Cal Newport, a professor of computer science at Georgetown University, studied and written a lot about the harmful effects of social media. He said that most major social media companies now employ "attention engineers" to help design products that are as addictive as possible. Social media use cart break up a person's attention throughout the day. Evidence shows that over time this can permanently reduce an

individual's ability to fully concentrate, possibly limiting education and job success. Research confirms that social media use can lead to loneliness, depression and anxiety. Newport urges everyone to consider quitting social media.

(6) Overall, Facebook says it is not just social media use that can affect a person's well-being. Rather, it believes both good and bad effects can result from how the service is used.

THE TOWN OF TVER

The town of Tver stands on the Great Russian River Volga. Tver is one of the oldest Russian towns. It is 12 years older than Moscow. Tver was founded in 1135. It played a great role in the early history of our country. In 1755 Tver became the principle town of the Tver province.

The centre of the town was designed by the well-known Russian architects Nikitin, Kasakov, and Kvasov at the end of the | 8" century. This centre has been preserved to our days. Many beautiful buildings designed by them are examples of Russian architecture: the Imperial Travel Palace, a number of buildings in Octagonal Square, and on the bank of the Volga River (Stepan Rasin Embankment).

Many famous Russian poets and writers came to Tver many times. Some of them are A. S. Pushkin, I. A. Krylov, M. Ye. Saltykov-Shchedrin. Monuments to them were erected in our town. On the left bank of the Volga River we can also see the monument to the T'ver merchant Afanasy Nikitin who was the first to travel to and document his visit to India.

In the second part of the 19th century Tver became a large industrial town. Here appeared large textile mills and a railway carriage building plant.

Now Tver is a big industrial centre. Its population is about 500,000. There are many large enterprises of engineering, metal working, textile, chemical, polygraphical and other branches of industry.

Many new modern houses have been built in the former outskirts.

Tver is also a big cultural centre of our country. Its Drama Theatre, Philharmonic Society, Puppet Theatre were built after war. It has many cinemas, clubs palaces of culture, a television centre and many libraries. The Gorky Regional Library founded one hundred years ago is housed in a new building now.

There are many educational establishments in our town. Among them are State University, Technical University, Medical University, Military University, and Agricultural Academy.

The country around Tver is very picturesque. The town grows and becomes more beautifill from year to year.
