 Содержание
Введение Стремительное развитие науки и техники, а также расширение экономических и культурных связей обусловило необходимость эффективного обмена информацией между всеми странами мирового сообщества. Английский язык традиционно считался языком торговли, политики, спорта и науки, но с появлением компьютеров и всемирной сети Internet он приобрел статус поистине международного. Согласно статистическим данным, около 80% Internet-сайтов и 75% научной литературы написано на английском языке. Стремительное развитие добычи нефти и газ, а также поиск и разработка новых запасов этого топлива создает спрос на специалистов, способных эффективно работать в любой стране. Поэтому современный специалист по бурению нефтегазовых скважин должен не только быть компетентным в своей области знаний, но и уметь получать знания и навыки путем ознакомления с новыми достижениями и разработками в этой области. Быстрое развитие новых технологий и оборудования порождает все новые термины. Кроме того, семантика некоторых терминов со временем изменяется. Трудности перевода заключаются в выборе правильного значения многозначного иностранного термина. В данных указаниях активируются более 1000 слов и словосочетаний, которые относятся к наиболее распространенной специальной лексике. Основной целью данного пособия является развитие навыков чтения и перевода специализированных текстов по предлагаемым темам. Оно призвано научить студентов пользоваться общими и специальными словарями и справочниками при чтении и переводе научно-технической литературы. Учебное пособие состоит из словаря (предтекстового), текстов и лексико-грамматических упражнений (послетекстовых). При отборе текстового материала учитывалась информационная ценность текстов и их соответствие интересам студентов.
