Give the short summary of text B. Unit 8 Grammar Revision: Complex Object Text A: Corn Text B: Corn Requirements Сложное дополнение (Complex Object) В английским языке существуют так называемые синтаксические комплексы, т. е. сочетания двух или нескольких слов, представляющие собой единое синтаксическое целое (один член предложения). Наиболее распространенным синтаксическим комплексом является сложное дополнение (the Complex Object). Каждый синтаксический комплекс состоит из именной части (существительного или местоимения) и глагольной части (инфинитива, герундия или причастия) и может быть развернут в целое придаточное предложение, где именная часть комплекса будет подлежащим, а глагольная 3.Азот фиксируется бобовыми культурами – сказуемым. Сложное дополнение может состоять из прямого дополнения и инфинитива: I want you to visit me in the evening. – Яхочу, чтобывынавестилименявечером. Peter wants me to write the letter. – Петя хочет, чтобыянаписалэтописьмо. После глаголов see, hear, watch, make, feel, let в сложном дополнении инфинитив употребляется без частицы to: I saw him come into the house.– Я видел, что он вошел в дом. He heard me open the door. – Он слышал, что я открыла дверь. Сложное дополнение может также состоять из прямого дополнения и причастия: IheardhersinginganEnglishsong.– Я слышал, как она пела английскую песню. Hewatchedthemplayinginthegarden.– Он наблюдал за тем, как они играли в саду. Разница между ними заключается в следующем: Сложное дополнение с инфинитивом обозначает однократное действие: Iheardhersaythesewords.– Я слышал, что она сказала эти слова. Wesawherrunintothehouse. – Мы видели, что она вбежала в дом. Сложное дополнение с причастием настоящего времени подчеркивает процесс протекания действия: Isawhercrossingthestreet.– Я видел, как она переходила улицу. Iwatchedthechildrenplayingwithaball. – Я наблюдал за тем, как дети играли в мяч. Сложное дополнение не имеет точного соответствия в русском языке и переводится на русский язык дополнительным придаточным предложением с союзами что, чтобы (если в сложное дополнение входит инфинитив) и как (если в сложное дополнение входит причастие настоящего времени). 1.

Read and translate the text using the dictionary. Corn Corn is known to belong to the tropical plants. However, it has been found that it is well adapted to the Temperate Zone where it reaches its best development. The leading countries in the production of this crop are the United States, Russia, Argentina and Egypt. Corn is thought to be a native of America. It is said that it was introduced into Europe by Columbus. Botanically corn is a grass, that is, it belongs to the same family of plants as timothy and wheat. Its roots are fibrous and spread several feet in the ground in all directions. The stem, like that of all the grasses, is made up of nodes and internodes, varying greatly in length in different varieties. The corn stem is known to have a hard fibrous coat and a soft spongy pith, differing from the hollow stem of most grasses. The height of the plant varies from 5 to 20 feet. The usual height is considered to be from 5 to 10 feet. Climatic Requirements Corn requires a generous, well distributed rainfall, a frost-free growing period of sufficient length and an abundance of warm weather. A good distribution of rainfall is essential during the critical months of July and August. During this period of rapid growth corn is found to require a large amount of water. A growing season from 80 to 160 days is necessary to mature the various corn varieties. Production of corn in the northern regions has been increased as a result of the development of very early maturing hybrids. Most of the earlier maturing varieties grown in these areas are used for silage. Soil Corn is known to produce a larger total yield than that of the other cereals. It does best in warm, rich, moist, well-drained loam soils. It would also grow, if the land were light and poor, but it makes really good growth only on deep rich soils. Everybody knows soil fertility to be more important with corn than in the growing of many other cereals. The soil must be compact enough to retain moisture, yet should be fine and mellow enough so that the roots may easily penetrate it. Planting The time of planting varies with the location as well as the condition of the soil. To choose a proper time for planting corn is very important for securing good results. It is useless to plant corn until the soil becomes warm enough; the farmer cannot expect corn to do well if it is planted in cold wet ground. Seed that would normally germinate would be lost if it were planted under improper conditions. The most convenient time to start planting corn in the northern parts of the USA is thought to be that of planting potatoes. The depth of planting is known to vary with the condition of the soil. The seed must be planted deep enough to get sufficient moisture for its germination, but it is not necessary to plant it deeper. 3. Fill in the blanks with the appropriate words from the text.

What is corn grown for? Corn Requirements Corn is believed to have been a highly developed cultivated crop in the New World long before its discovery. The origin of corn is unknown since the plant has been found only under cultivation. Now corn is more widely distributed over the world than any other cereal crop. Corn is a member of the grass family. It is an extremely variable plant and there exist a large number of varieties that differ widely in size and shape. Corn is a warm-weather plant that requires high temperatures day and night during the growing season. It has been found to be highly susceptible to frost injury at the time of its growth. Actually corn requires a relatively small amount of water for each pound of dry matter produced, its high water requirement being due to the potential high acre production. When growing rapidly in July and August, corn needs much water because of the high rate of evaporation from the soil and transpiration from the leaves. Corn makes its best growth if planted in a fertile, well-drained, loam soil. Besides, soils of high inorganic matter are ideal for this crop, for they have a high water-holding capacity. In addition to fertile soil and adequate moisture an abundance of sunshine is necessary for the plants to manufacture large quantities of food to be stored in the grain. Cool, cloudy weather results in heavy vegetative growth and low yields of grain. The object is to plant corn at the depth that will provide optimum soil temperature and water and result in rapid germination. Corn planting depth varies widely with the soil conditions and climate. As corn should be planted deep enough to place the seed in contact with warm moist soil, the usual depth is 2 to 3 inches in rows from 30 to 40 inches apart. The soil being rather cold, the depth of 1 to 1 ½ inches may be advisable. Corn is cultivated primarily to control weeds and to a less extent to conserve moisture and aerate the soil. Corn is grown principally for grain, fodder, silage, pasturing. Nearly 90% of the corn grain is used directly as livestock feed. When cut for silage or harvested for fodder, corn does not usually leave the farm on which it is produced. Corn has numerous industrial uses. Its stems and leaves seem to have been used for making paper from the ancient times. Notes: the New World – Новый Свет from the ancient times – с давних времен water-holding capacity – способность удерживать влагу, влагоемкость inch – дюйм fodder – зеленый корм 2.

Unit 9 Grammar Revision: Sequence of Tenses Text A: Wheat Text B: The most Important Grain Crop Согласование времен (Sequence of Tenses) В английском языке употребление времени глагола-сказуемого в придаточном предложении зависит от времени глагола-сказуемого в главном предложении. Это называется правилом согласования времен. Правило согласования времен заключается в следующем: Если в главном предложении глагол-сказуемое стоит в одной из форм настоящего или будущего времени, то глагол-сказуемое в придаточном предложении может стоять в любой временной форме, которая требуется по смыслу: Не says that he was busy yesterday. – Он говорит, что был занят вчера. Не says that he will be busy tomorrow. – Он говорит, что будет занят завтра. Не says that he is busy. – Он говорит, что занят. Если в главном предложении глагол-сказуемое стоит в одной из форм прошедшего времени, то в придаточном предложении глагол-сказуемое нужно употреблять также в одной из форм прошедшего, а именно: 1. Если действие придаточного предложения происходит одновременно с действием главного предложения, то в придаточном предложении употребляется глагол в одной из форм Past Simple or Past Continuous: Не told me that he studied here. – Он сказал мне, что учится здесь. She said she was preparing for a report. – Она сказала, что готовится к докладу. 2. Если действие придаточного предложения предшествует действию главного предложения, то в придаточном предложении употребляется глагол в одной из форм Past Perfect: The rector said that the Moscow Higher Women's Courses had been reorganised into the Second Moscow State University. – Ректор сказал, что Московские высшие женские курсы были преобразованы во Второй Московский Государственный Университет. 3. Если действие придаточного предложения относится к будущему времени, а в главном действие относится к прошедшему, то глагол-сказуемое должен стоять в Future-in-the-Past. Форма Future-in-the-Past образуется от соответствующей формы Future Simple, но вместо вспомогательного глагола will употребляется would: I thought I would know the way this time, but I was wrong. – Ядумал, чтонаэтотразяузнаюдорогу, нояошибся. В следующих случаях правило согласования времен не соблюдается, т.е. независимо от временной формы глагола-сказуемого в главном предложении в придаточном предложении глагол-сказуемое употребляется в любой временной форме, которая требуется по смыслу: 1. Если в состав сказуемого в придаточном предложении входит один из следующих модальных глаголов: must, ought, should: I knew that he must come to the Academy by 3 o'clock. – Язнал, чтоондолженприйтивакадемиюк 3 часам. 2. Если в придаточном предложении сообщается об общеизвестном факте или неопровержимой истине: The teacher told the pupils that Novosibirsk stands on the both banks of the river Ob. – Учительрассказалученикам, чтоНовосибирскрасположеннаобоихберегахрекиОбь. 3. В придаточных определительных предложениях и в предложениях, вводимых союзными словами as как, в качестве, than чем: It was not so cold yesterday as it is today. – Вчеранебылотакхолодно, каксегодня. 4. Если действие придаточного предложения предшествует действию главного предложения, и время действия придаточного предложения указано точно: I knew that she left Moscow in 1945. – Я знала, что она уехала из Москвы в 1945 году. Но: I knew that she had left Moscow some years ago. – Я знала, что она уехала из Москвы несколько лет назад. |
