C. 2. Read the text SOME BUILDING PROFESSIONS and answer the following questions using: As far as I know, as is known, I think, in fact.

1. Who is called a bricklayer?

2. What kind of work does a plasterer perform?

Different workmen are employed in building a house. A bricklayer is a worker who builds and repairs brickwork who builds walls and other parts made of bricks. He lays the bricks one on the top of another and puts mortar between them with a trowel.

A carpenter is the man who does the rough woodwork of the house. He erects wood frames, fixes wood floors, stairs and window frames. Doors, windows, frames and stairs all come to the building sites on lorries. They are ready to be fixed in the houses.

A mason is a stone worker. He builds the foundation. In Scotland and the USA a brick worker is usually also a mason. Plumbers work on all the water pipes of the house. They lay pipes to carry clean water into the house from the water main. Plumbers also lay pipes to carry waste water away to the sewers. They fix all the baths, water pipes and the sanitary installations.

Then the carpenters finish the woodwork in the house and leave it ready for the painters and the decorators. When all the wires and pipes are in place the house is ready for the plasterers. The plasterers put plaster or cement over all the walls and ceilings and make them smooth. The walls are then painted, papered or whitewashed.

C. 3. Read the text THE ENGINEERING PROFESSION and find answer to the following question:

What characteristics must the engineer combine?

Engineering is one of the most ancient occupations in history. The skilled technicians who erected the marvelous buildings of the ancient world were the civil engineers of their time.

Specialists in engineering materials have taken a new approach to the problem of the permanent nature of materials' properties. It is useful to have materials whose properties can be changed and controlled. That's why specialists have to create materials with variable porosity, elasticity and thermal conductivity.

The principal work of the engineer is design. He has to design machines, structures, equipment, products, etc. The engineer must combine many of the characteristics of the scientist, research engineer and technologist, he must preserve and enrich the best traditions of national and foreign architecture. Such work requires creative ability and knowledge of scientific principles. The engineer must also have an understanding of the various properties and available materials. They must keep up with changes in their profession. Apart from professional skill, an architect must have an extensive knowledge of all spheres of the cultural life of the people. He must know all kinds of building materials and technology provided by the building industry of today.

Specialists in engineering materials create new materials with diverse properties: variable porosity, elasticity and thermal conductivity. With glass and ferro - concrete as their construction materials and with modern synthetic materials at their disposal for interior decoration Russian architects and construction workers have to erect structures which must represent a harmonious blend of national and modern style.

Notes:

create - создавать blend - смесь

approach - подход at one's disposal - в чьем-либо распоряжении
