see it on the screen. Listen to the students reports very attentively and be ready to
answer the questions.
Показ слайдов «Computers in our life» (Выступления студентов)
1. Computers quickly entered into our life. They have changed our lives for the better. The modern
computing machines present one of the most achievements of human thought, that is why it’s difficult to
imagine our life without this clever machine.(cлайд1)
2. Today we almost use PCs in every office, in every house, in every school, on airplanes, etc.
The user
of the computer can be a writer and an artist, a doctor and an engineer, a musician and a teacher. It is the
universal tool which is capable to help everyone. ( cлайд 2)
3. Computers in manufacturing
Numerous factories use computers to control machines that make products. A computer turns on and off
and adjusts their operations when necessary. Without computers, it would be impossible for engineers to
perform the enormous number of calculations needed to solve many technological problems.
Architectural and civil engineers use the computers in designing complicated bridges, official
institutions, shopping centers and other structures. ( cлайд 3)
4. The robot
The Robot is also controlled by the computer. The Robot is a mechanical device. It can carry out the
work, which for people proves to be too heavy or even impossible, for instance, in conditions of strong
fierce frost. Quite often one robot can change two workers at the plant. ( cлайд 4)
5. Computers in research
Computers help in the building of spacecraft, and they assist flight engineers in launching, controlling
and tracking the vehicles. Computers also are used to develop equipment for exploring the moon and
planets. Computers have been of tremendous help to researchers in the biological, physical and social
sciences. Astronomers use computers to guide telescopes and to process photographic images of planets
and other objects in space. ( cлайд 5)
6. Computers in art
Computers can be used to compose music, write poems and produce drawings and paintings. A work
generated by a computer may resemble that a certain artist in birth style and form, or it may appear
abstract оr random. Computers are also used in the study of the fine arts, particularly, literature. They
have also been programmed to help scholars identify paintings and sculptures from ancient civilizations.
(cлайд 6)
7. Computers in education
There are many computer classes at our technical school. We can get basic computer skills for our future
specialty there. We study some applications: Word 7.0, Excel 7.0, NetWare and others. At our computer
lessons we print texts, draw graphs and electronic tables, create databases, translate texts, create new files
and prepare projects. Our students like computer lessons very much because computers can do many
lessons more interesting and convincing. (cлайд 7)
8. Today computers can store huge amount of information on magnetic media and any item of this
information can be obtained in a few milliseconds and displayed or printed for the user. We all use PCs to
make our life easier. (cлайд 8)
Now, students I want to know how well you listened to each other and ask you some questions.
9. Questions for general understanding
1. What has changed our lives for the better?
2. Where do we use PCs?
3. Name a mechanical device?
4. Do computers help in the building of spacecraft?
5. Why do our students like computer lessons ?
6. Where can computers store huge amount of information? (cлайд 9)
10. Decide whether the sentences are true (T) or false (F)? Correct the wrong sentences.
1. Without computers it would be impossible for engineers to perform the enormous number of
calculations. (T)
2. Architectural and civil engineers can’t design complicated bridges
and other structures with the help of computers. (F)?
3. Computers have not been of tremendous help to researchers in the biological, physical and social
sciences. (F)?
4. Computer is the universal tool which isn’t capable to help everyone. (F)?
5. One robot can change two workers at the plant. (T)
6. Computers can be used to compose music, write poems and produce drawings and paintings.
(T)
7. Today, computers are big, slow and can store little information on magnetic media. (F)?

«Buy a computer»
Salesperson: Нow can I help you today?
Fernando: I am thinking of buying a laptop and I have a few questions.
Salesperson: What would you like to know?
Fernando: A friend of mine recommended buying a Lap-Pal 2000 I wondering about power
compatibility. I’ll be taking this computer back to Argentina with me.
Salesperson: That’s not a problem. This laptop has a universal power adapter. You won’t need to buy
anything extra.
Fernando: O’key. Does the package include modem and DVD?
Salesperson: Yes, it does
Fernando: That’s good. Is this all software that’s included? .
Salesperson I think you’ll find that the software package is very versatile. But if you anticipate needing
something specific, I am sure we can help you out.
Fernando: I’ll need something with more robust capabilities for spreadsheets and databases.
Salesperson: Then I’d suggest moving up to the Versa 2 package. It’s a little more sophisticated and it
has enhanced printing and expended memory.
Fernando: How much is this package?
Salesperson: Right now we’re running a promotion. You can get the Versa 2 software option for $79
over the base price.
Fernando: I see. Would you suggest purchasing an extended warranty?
Salesperson: Oh, yes. The package comes with a standard one year warranty on parts and labor, but I’d
recommend getting that extended option. It’s only an additional $259, and you can avoid paying for
repairs during the first three years.
Fernando: Would you consider throwing in an extended warranty?
Salesperson: Well, at these low prices, I am afraid I can’t do that
Fernando: Mmm…O’key I’ll take it anyway, with the standard warranty.
Now we’ll write a test. Time is limit. I’ll give you 3 minutes. Your task is to choose the right answer.

Работа над текстом «Computers help to control train traffic»
(Чтение и перевод по цепочке S1,S2,S3,S4,S5 и т.д)
Now let’s read and translate the text. Before reading you are to pronounce the words and expressions.
Listen to me and repeat after me.

An automatic train operation system is being developed in our country. It will make possible to
control and regulate train traffic on all railways. This system is being formed on the basis of computer
centers which exist on each of the country’s 32 railway lines.
The purpose of the traffic control system based on electronics is to make easier the work of
traffic controllers who direct the movement of trains on the most intensive lines. The computer will give
the controller the full information on the conditions on the lines, model all the processes on the route
and advise him what he should do to improve the situation. The computer will advise the drivers with
which speed they should drive trains on each sector of the route.
The computer system will help train gatherers in their work. It is only now, in the computer age,
that it has become possible to choose the necessary variants of train formation automatically. The new
method will double the speed of train processing and make the work of railwaymen easier.
In the future it is planned to automate train driving as well. The computer will take over driver's
functions, making it possible to considerably reduce the intervals of train movement.
