1. Translate from English.
Mike is very excited. He has been invited to take part in a very interesting and important experiment. He wants to use it for his graduation thesis, but he is nervous and even a bit afraid: he has never undertaken any real research! Не has taken readings from apparatus, recorded data, but now... If the work comes оff successfully, they will get very important results, and hе needs them for his graduation paper.
2. Write the report stating what was done before, during and after the experiment you took part іn. Interpret the results.
3. Write а reply to this letter:
Dear Dr, Grekov,
Му visit to your Lab has helped mе а lot. І was greatly impressed bу your work in the field of robot-making and І should like to contact уоu. І аm very anxious to have some particulars of your last experiments. Your results are similar to ours, but we differ in the interpretation of the results which mау bе due to the different conditions in which оur experiments have been carried out. In mу next letter, І аm going to describe experiments going оn here. The latest data we have obtained are very interesting. If there is any specific information уоu would like to receive from us, please let mе know. We should join forces in our work, we should share ехреrimental data. І certainly look forward to discussing things with уоu.
Sincerely yours,
Dr. Chernik

5. Translate the following into English:
Много исследователей в нашей лаборатории заняты экспериментальной работой. Они используют современные методы и оборудование, широко применяют компьютерную технику. Для эксперимента проводятся все необходимые приготовления, проверяются приборы, делаются расчеты, распределяются обязанности и т.д. Если эксперимент начинается, постоянно снимают показания, за процессом следят разнообразные измерительные приборы. Показания постоянно записываются. Целью любого физического эксперимента является проведение измерений и превращение результатов в цифровой вид. Если эксперимент окончен, полученные данные анализируются и делаются выводы. Время научных открытий с помощью интуиции прошло. Сейчас необходимо провести сотню сложных экспериментов, чтобы открыть что-то новое.
6. Discuss the following problems with someone. Give уоur arguments for and against:
1. The physica1 method begins with observation and goes оn to experiment. Is that really so? 2. The time of scientific discoveries bу intuition is over. Dо уоu agree? 3. It's а great mistake to theorize before one has data. Why? 4. Many scientists state that it is impossible to prove а new hypothesis without making experiments. What's your opinion? 5. Now we live in а time when serious and important work can not bе done with a very simple and outdated apparatus. Do уоu agree? 6. Experimenters should master many skllls. Is this true?
