TASK 4: TRANSLATE INTO ENGLISH.
The words that were spoken made a deep impression on me. The figures pre¬
sented prove nothing. I will send you the books you requested. He swept up the
broken glass. The problem under investigation was one of organisation. The
results obtained are shown in Table 1. I bought a used car. The methods used
met the objective. The events described made him/her sad. The books ordered
arrived. The trends analysed continue. Among the names mentioned was that
of the President. The phenomena observed do not prove the hypothesis.
The calculated averages are flawed. The whole idea contradicts established
scientific thinking.

TASK 7: SUPPLY THE MISSING PREPOSITIONS.
The need for change was urgent. The reasons for his behaviour became clear
only later. His visit to the island was short. He was reading a novel by Lawrence.
In a letter to the President, the Prime Minister repeated his proposal. There is
strong support for our plan. He is an expert on Italian opera. He bought a
painting by Raffaello. His emphasis on security was justified. I have a guest
from Australia. An attack by terrorists was expected. He was standing in front
of a picture by Monet. I bought a book on butterflies.
