When we press a piece of rubber we change its shape. But as soon as we stop pressing, the rubber springs back to its first shape; we therefore say that rubber is elastic. Rubber was first used to make rubber balls. In 1492, Columbus sailed from Spain and discovered America. One of the many strange things which he and his men saw in America was a game played with rubber balls. They noticed that the rubber balls bounced much better than the balls which they had used in their own country. When they sailed home again they told their friends that the balls were made from the gum of a tree. Hundreds of years had passed before rubber was used in Europe and other parts of the world. Small pieces of rubber were brought to Europe, and kept by people who liked to collect strange things; but no one thought that rubber could be useful. Then an artist found out that rubber would rub out pencil marks. That was one of the first uses of rubber, and that is how it came to be called 'rubber'. Rubber trees grow only in countries where it is very hot and very damp. These countries are near the equator; so it was in the countries near the equator that men went out to hunt for the rubber trees. It was not easy to find the trees. In those hot damp lands, trees of many kinds grow so close together that it is difficult to travel through the forests. The men who were hunting for rubber trees found them growing wild in South America, in Central America, and in West Africa. Nearly all the world's rubber came from the great forests of America and West Africa. нужен качественный перевод!!!

Все мы знаем,что такое резина. Мы видели ее на колесах автомобилей; мы использовали ее, чтобы стереть ошибки на рисунке; мы играли в игры с резиновыми шариками. Когда мы нажимаем кусок резины, мы изменяем ее форму. Но как только мы прекращаем нажимать, резина возвращается назад к ее изначальной форме; поэтому мы говорим, что резина упругая. Резина сначала использовалась, для того что бы сделать резиновые шары. В 1492 Колумбус приплыл из Испании и обнаружил Америку. Одной из многих странных вещей, которые он и его помошниками ( друзьями) видели в Америке, была игра, игравшая с резиновыми шарами. Они заметили, что резиновые шары подпрыгнули намного лучше, чем шары, которые они использовали в их собственной стране. Когда они приплыли домой снова, они сказали друзьям, что шары были сделаны из резины дерева. Сотни лет прошли прежде, чем резина использовалась в Европе и других частях мира. Маленькие куски резины были принесены в Европу и сохранены людьми, которым понравилось собирать странные вещи; но никакая мысль, что резина могла быть полезной. Однажды художник узнал, что резина может сотрать отметки карандаша. Это было первое использование резины, и именно так это стало названным 'резиной'. Каучуковые деревья растут только в странах, где это оченьжарко и очень влажно. Эти страны находятся около экватора; таким образом, это было в странах около экватора, на который мужчины вышли, чтобы охотиться для каучуковых деревьев. Не легко было найти деревья. На тех жарких и влажных землях деревья многих видов растут так близко друг к другу, что трудно поехать через леса. Мужчины, которые охотились для каучуковых деревьев, нашли их в Южной Америке в Центральной Америке, и в Западной Африке. Почти вся резина в мире прибыла из больших лесов Америки и Западной Африки.

Мы все занем, что такое резина. Мы видим её на колесах машин, мы используем её, чтобы убрать ошибки в чертежах, мы играем с резиновым мячом. Когда мы нажимаем на кусочек резины, мы изменяем её форму. Но как только мы прикращаем нажимать, резинка возвращается в свою первоначальную форму. Поэтому мы говорим, что резина эластичная. Колумб приплыл из Испании и открыл Америку. Одно из необычных вещей, которое он и его люди увидели в Америке была игра с резиновыми мячами. Они заметили, что резиновые мячи отпрыгивали лучше, чем мячи, которые они использовали в своей стране. Когда они поплыли назад они рассказали друзьям, что эти мячи были сделаны из смолы дерева. Несколько сотен лет прошло прежде чем резина стала использоваться в Европе и в других частях света. Маленькие кусочки резины были привезены в Европу, и хранились у людей, которые коллекционировали необычные вещи, но никто из них не мог подумать, что резина может быть полезной. Затем художник обнаружил, что резина стирает карандаш. Это было первое использование резины, и после этого она стала называться "rubber". Деревья , с помощью которых делают резину, растут только в странах, где очень жарко и влажно. Эти страны около экватора. Именно в этих странах около экватора люди ходили на охоту за этими деревьями. Было не легко найти эти деревья. В таких жарких влажных лесах все деревья растут близко к друг другу, поэтому трудно проходит сквозь эти леса. Люди, которые искали эти деревья, нашли их в диком лесу в Южной Америке, в Центральнй Америке и в Западной Африке. Почти вся мировая резина родом из великих лесов Америки и Западной Африки.

The Geographers' A-Z Street Atlas is one of the icons of London, as famous as red buses and ...fog. It is the book people reach for when they want to know
exactly where to find thousands of streets in London. You could find it on the bookshelves of the most London homes and in just every travel agency in the city. It lists every street in London and its carefully drawn maps show parks, gardens, railway lines, canals and just about anything else that can be put onto a piece of paper. So where did it come from? Phyllis Pearsall was a remarkable woman. She was born in Britain in 1906. She stayed there until she left school, and then travelled around France. She earned money by painting people's pictures and writing for a newspaper in Paris.
In the 1930s she returned to London, where she worked for her father's company, making maps of the world. She thought that there was a need for new street maps of London, after in 1935 she got lost while using a 20-year-old street map. So she started working on a book of maps. She walked along every street in the capital and wrote down the name, the important buildings and even the house numbers. Working eighteen-hour days she walked a total of 3,000 miles, while compiling her book. She kept the information about the streets on cards in small boxes.
One day a box with cards of all the streets beginning with "T" fell out of her window. She found most of the cards, but some cards landed on top of a bus and she never saw them again. When she sent the cards to the printer, someone asked her, "Why isn't Trafalgar Square in your book?" It was because she had lost the card. Phyllis Pearsall called her book A to Z. The first A to Z was in the shops in 1936 and sold very well. Now it is the most popular book of London street maps. It shows every street in London, important buildings, museums, theatres, schools, parks, train and underground stations. Later Phyllis Pearsall painted pictures of many of the city's famous buildings. In the same year, she formed the Geographers' Map Company which began publishing street maps and atlases of towns and cities and road maps of the whole country.
Today there are more than 130 people working for the Company. It publishes 359 titles including maps and atlases in both black and white and full colour. Computers were introduced into the drawing process in 1991. In 1996 the Company produced its first electronic street map of London on CD which contained over 90,000 streets, stations and different places of interest. 2005 saw the start of the next generation of A-Z maps, this time for mobile phones.
Phyllis Pearsall wrote about the history of the company in her book From Bedsitter to Household Name. She died in August 1996 at the age of 89.

Помогите пожалуста перевести текст, только не тупо в переводчике а чтоб был смысл в ньом очень прошу помогите!!! THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HO
LLOW On the Eastern shore of the Hudson River there was a little valley, among high hills, which was one of the quietest places in the whole world. This valley had long been known by the name of Sleepy Hollow. Many strange stories about ghosts were told and retold in a village situated there. The most frightful, however, was the one about a headless horse¬man. It is said that it was the ghost of a soldier who had been killed in battle. Once there lived in this village a schoolmaster, Crane by name. He was a tall and very thin man. In the same village lived the daughter and the only child of a rich farmer. She was a pretty girl and attracted the attention of every young man in the village. Crane too, was in love with her. But if the schoolmaster meant to win her heart, he would have to get rid of all his rivals. The one he feared most was a certain Brunt. He was a tall and strong young man and most people liked him for his bravery and great skill of a horseman. It is clear that Crane would have lived quietly in his little village to the end of his life if a very strange thing had not happened one night. In the afternoon of that day Crane was in his school when a servant brought him an invitation to a party, which was to be held that evening at Van Tassel's. The pupils were sent home an hour before the usual time, and Crane spent no less than half an hour dressing up for the party. He wished to look his best that night, therefore, he borrowed a horse from the farmer with whom he was then living. The horse's name was Gunpowder. It was towards evening that Crane arrived at home of Van Tassel. The house was full of guests and Brunt was among them. There were many good things to eat and a lot of dancing. Everybody enjoyed himself that night. When the party was nearly over, Crane suddenly left the hall where the guests were dancing. He went to Katrina's room where he stayed alone with the girl for a short while. They must have had an unpleasant conversation for the school¬master looked sad when he re-entered the hall.

who are about to begin your first year course in
Biology here at the university. You might think
it is a little early for me to ask you to think
about what you will do when you leave here in
three years' time. However, our science, like
any other, has so many different areas it is
impossible for you to study them all. The first
thing you will need to think about is
specialising. This letter is to offer you some
suggestions to think about for your future.
As you know, there are four main areas of
biology that we shall concentrate on in the
coming years. Biology can be divided into
zoology, the study of animal life, and botany,
the study of plant life. We shall also study
molecular biology, the study of how the
building blocks of living things, the cells, work.
Another topic of interest is genetics, how
biological information is passed on from one generation to the next: that is, inheritance. You
should specialise, but you will also need to
know about all of these four areas of study.
Plants and animals do not live separately from
each other; all living things are made up of cells
and one of the things genetics tells us is how
plants and animals adapt to the conditions
around them.
So what about after the course is over and you
have graduated in Biology? Can you have a
career in biology? For those who choose to
specialise in genetics or molecular biology
there are important career opportunities in
medicine. At the present time, there is a great
deal of research going on in gene therapy where
biologists are working with doctors and
chemists to find new ways of treating diseases.
Other biologists are looking at ways of changing
the genetic composition of the plants we grow
for food; of making them more able to fight
diseases and at the same time produce
more food.
We are experiencing a period of climatic change
too, and this is having an effect on the way
animals and plants live. The science of ecology
is becoming more and more important;
biologists who specialise in zoology are working
in many parts of the world. Some are working to
protect species like the tiger, which are
seriously threatened by climate change. Others
are investigating wildlife from the smallest
insects to the largest mammals, trying to
understand how they all live together. Botanists
are looking at the effect new types of food crops
have on the environment and how changes in
that area can affect our general health. There is
even a new area of biology called astrobiology,
which is looking at the possibilities of life on
other planets - but perhaps that is something
for the more distant future.
Whatever you specialise in, as long as there is
life on this (or any other) planet, there is work
for a biologist.
Good luck and enjoy your studies!
Jean Shearer
Professor of Biology

Задать 5 вопросов по тексту. In this essay, I would like to discuss the problems of crime and the criminal deeds. This question is important today as
never before. Furthermore, this is the most vital problem and therefore it is worth discussing.In our country the crime usually pays. What crime is ever done it pays greatly, because there is not enough power of the government and the police to stop the development of criminal deeds. That is why you are "allowed" to do everything you like and more besides. Vladislav Listiev, Dmitry Holodov, Galina Starovoitova and many other famous politicians and businessmen were insolently assassinated and the customers of these criminal affairs are somewhere now enjoying their freedom and sure in the idea that the crime pays. I believe that for honest, religious and law respecting people, it is out of the question that crime does not pay, because they all know that if you commit a criminal deed you will be punished by the God, or by your own conscience. Nevertheless, in our society some people have forgotten about justice and law. They hardly understand their role in the life, and think that all the life is based around them and the others can be ignored or terminated. Such ideas are like parasites distributing among others and infecting them. Crime pays if it is well thought and prepared. For example lets take the robbery of the bank. Some people think that the robbery of the bank is connected with guns, a group of well-prepared terrorists, plans. I can only say that these people watch TV and do nothing else, because what you need for today's robbery of the bank is a computer, a modem, and some easy skills. Moreover, you may be confident that no one will ever catch you if you steal little sums of money. Finally, I suppose I have concluded that there are two main points of view on this question. Crime does not pay or it pays. I tend to think that crime does not pay, because if I commit a crime (I wish I never did) I will suffer for all my life, go to police, and tell everything.
