Exercise 10. Read the text and entitle it.
The highest mountain in the world is Mount Everest – 29.002 feet high. The largest ocean is the Pacific having a total area of 63.986.000 square miles. The Atlantic Ocean, the next largest, is only 31.530.000 square miles, the Indian Ocean with 28.350.000 square miles comes third. The longest river is the Nile which is more than 4.000 miles longer or about twice the distance by air from London to Beirut. The biggest island is Greenland which belongs to Denmark and is about 840.000 square miles in extent. The largest lake is the Caspian Sea. Geographers consider it as a lake because it is not connected with any of the great oceans. It has an area of about 170.000 square miles. Which is the deepest sea? So far, as we know at present the greatest depth is in the Pacific Ocean near the Philippines and goes down to 37.000 feet, which is much more than the height of Everest. The biggest volcano is in Ecuador, South America. It is still active and 19.612 feet high. There is another one between Argentina and Chile and it is more than 3.000 feet higher.
Task III. Read and translate the text.
Text 2b Massachusetts Institute of Technology
MIT is an independent university located in Boston area. It was founded in 1861 by William Barton Rogers, a distinguished natural scientist, who believed that teaching, research, and the application of knowledge must be combined to real-world problems. MIT held its first classes in 1865 after having delayed opening because of the Civil War. There were approximately 15 students enrolled at that time.
Today MIT has about 9,700 students, a faculty of approximately 1,000 and several thousand research staff. The institute is broadly organized into five academic Schools – Architecture and Planning, Engineering, Humanities and Social Science, Management and Science – and a large number of interdisciplinary programs, laboratories, and centers. A unique feature of MIT is that undergraduates join with graduate students, faculty, and staff to work on research projects throughout the institute.
Most academic activities take place in a group of interconnected buildings designed to permit easy communication among the Schools and their departments. Across the street from this set of buildings there are athletic fields, the student center, and many of the dormitories.
The main purpose of the academic program at MIT is to give students a sound command of basic principles, the habit of continued learning and the confidence that comes from a thorough and systematic approach to learning. This results in continued professional and personal growth, especially in today’s rapidly changing world.
The two essential parts of all MIT educational programs are teaching and research. They provide experience in theory and experiment for both students and teaching staff.
Each student pursues a degree in one of the departments. Undergraduate courses at MIT lead to the degree of Bachelor of Science. The academic programs require four years of full-time study for the Bachelor of Science. Degrees are awarded on the basis of satisfactory completion of general institute and departmental requirements in each program.
There is enough flexibility to allow each student, in collaboration with the advisor, to develop an individual program in accordance with his or her own interests and preparation.
