Unit 1 the power plant
Exercise 1. Read and translate the text.
The Power Plant
The airplane consists of the following five principal structural units or components: the power plant, fuselage, wings, tail unit and landing gear. Power is necessary to propel the airplane and to provide the necessary lift. A source of this power is a power plant. It provides power and propels the airplane. Thus we can say, the function of the power plant is to provide power for flight. The power plant provides the thrust needed to move an airplane through the air.
The main part of the power plant is the engine. The aircraft engine must meet the following requirements: 1) low weight, 2) low cost, and 3) reliability. The power plant also contains different systems and engine control. The main systems are: the fuel, the lubrication, the fire prevention, and the cooling system. There are different types of airplane engines. The two basic groups of aviation engines are piston or internal combustion engines, and jet engines. The function of the airplane engine is to propel the airplane. The fuel system provides fuel, the lubrication system provides lubricants, the fire prevention system serves to prevent fire, the cooling system serves to cool the engine.

When you are reading, you will come across unfamiliar words. It is often possible to guess the meaning of these words if you understand the way words in English are generally formed. An English word can be divided into three parts: a prefix, a stem and a suffix. ”Pre-“ means “before”; a prefix, therefore, is what comes before the stem. A suffix is what is attached to the end of the stem.
Prefixes usually change the meaning of the word; for example, UN- changes a word to the negative. Suffixes, on the other hand, change the word from one part of speech to another. For example, -ly added to the adjective “quick” gives the adverb “quickly”. Let us now consider some suffixes and their usual meanings.
Exercise 7. Study these tables and try to find additional examples. Use your dictionary if necessary.
