VII. Render from English into Ukrainian Cars of the Future

1. In the XXI century great changes will come in the design of autos. New cars will appear on the roads of all countries. These cars of the future will have stronger, safer bodies and better engines. They will run safely with the help of computers. These small dimension computers will regulate driving speed. The engines will operate on fuel that leaves the atmosphere free of

gases.

2. Nuclear power plants can produce unlimited amounts of electric energy

at very low costs. That's why tomorrow's designers and automotive engineers must think seriously about new forms of energy which will power cars. Very soon people will drive electric cars or gas turbine engine cars. These types of cars will be capable to run at constant speed of 40-60 kph. It will take a half second at most to accelerate from a standing start to 40-60 kph. But there may be cars which will have a maximum speed of about 120 kph.

OPERATING SYSTEMS

An operating system provides the basic instructions that tell the computer how to handle certain tasks necessary for it to work. The operating system of a large computer can be very complicated, because it has to control so many functions. A microcomputer's operating system is simple by comparison.

Suppose you had a computer with no operating system. (Yes, there are such machines.) You would have to write a program—a very complex program—in order to get the computer to do anything. Among other things, you would have to explain in your program how the computer should interpret the pressing of each key. Such a computer provides good training for a computer scientist, but it is of little value to most ordinary users.

An operating system gets you over that hurdle. It consists of a set of prewritten instructions. The operating system is the program that makes it possible for you to run all other programs that are available or can be written for your computer. The operating-system program may exist just in ROM.

DISK OPERATING SYSTEMS

A disk operating system, or DOS (pronounced dahs) is a program that controls the storage of information on disks. DOS also makes it possible for the computer to use various programs that are already stored on disks. Most packaged programs for computers are available on disks, and the DOS is what gets these programs started. Obviously, the system requires a disk drive.
