| Інструкція 2. · Речення, яке містить в собі більш ніж одну предикативну синтагму, називається складним, тобто воно складається з двох або більше речень. · Якщо ці речення не залежать одне від одного, то таке складне речення називається складносурядним. Речення, що входять до нього, можуть з'єднуватися такими сполучниками та сполучними словами: and - і; та; but - але; either... or - або... або; for- тому що; hence - отже; however - однак; проте; neither... nor - ні... ні; nevertheless - хоча; проте; not only... but (also)- не тільки... але й; or -або; otherwise - інакше; або ж; so - тому; отже; still- все ж; then - потім; therefore - тому; отже; yet - проте. Example: The Constitution says nothing about political parties, but over time the U.S. has in fact developed a two-party system. · Речення, що входять до складу складносурядного, можуть з'єднуватися без сполучника - за допомогою коми, крапки з комою, двокрапки, тире. Example: Millions of average Americans had cars - Ford alone had produced almost 30 million by the end of the 1930s. · Якщо речення залежить від іншого (головного), воно називається підрядним. Підрядне речення виконує функцію одного з членів головного: підмета, частини присудка, додатка, означення, обставини. Підрядні речення можуть приєднуватися до головного такими сполучниками та сполучними словами: after - після того як; although - хоч; незважаючи на те, що; as - як; коли; в той час як; тому що; оскільки; as if - неначе; ніби; as long as - доки; as soon as - як тільки; as though - ніби; наче; because - тому що; before - перш ніж; до того як; even though - навіть хоча; how - як; яким чином; however - проте; однак; незважаючи на; if- якщо; чи; lest - щоб... не; як би... не; since - з того часу як; оскільки; so that -так що; so... that -так... що; than- ніж; that - що; який (відносно людей і речей) щоб; the + вищий ступінь прикметника... the + вищий ступінь прикметника - чим...тим …; though- хоч; однак; проте; till- доти; поки; unless - якщо не; until - поки не; what - що; який; whatever - все, що; будь-який; when - коли; у той час, як; whenever - кожного разу; коли б не; where - де; куди; whereas- тоді як; wherever - де б не; куди б не; whether – чи; which -який (відносно речей); що; while - у той час як; тоді як; who - хто; який (відносно людей); whoever - хто б не; який би не; whom - кого / кому; якого / якому; whose – чий; why – чому. Example: Although there is a federal Department of Education, its function is merely to gather information, to advise, and to help finance certain educational programs. · Якщо після сполучних слів who (whom), that, which, where,які з'єднують підрядні означальні речення з головним, стоїть іменник або займенник, ці сполучні слова можуть випускатися: The candidate whom they selected had extensive experience of industry. = The candidate they selected had extensive experience of industry. The hotel where we stayed was very expensive. Or: The hotel in which we stayed was very expensive. = The hotel we stayed in was very expensive [64]. The computers that your firm ordered have arrived. = The computers your firm ordered have arrived. But: We've got a machine that prints in colour. Якщо підрядне означальне речення дає додаткову інформацію, вилучення якої не порушує смисл головного речення, сполучні слова who (whom), which, where не можуть випускатися. У цьому разі підрядне означальне речення відокремлюється від головного комами: Richard Branson, who has now sold his record company to Sony, runs the airline Virgin Atlantic. Сполучне слово that в цьому випадку не вживається. · Сполучник thatможе випускатися, коли він з'єднує додаткове підрядне речення з головним: I thought that she had finished the report. = I thought she had finished the report. |

Americans have shown a great concern (інтерес) for education since early colonial times. Among the first settlers (поселенці), in fact (справді), there was an unusually high proportion of educated (освічений) men. In the Massachusetts Bay colony in the early 1600s, as the British historian (історик) Rowse has pointed out (to point out -вказувати), "there was an average of one university man to every 40 or 50 families - much higher than in Old England." Some of these men, many of them graduates (випускники)of Cambridge,came together(to come together - об'єднатися) and in 1636 founded (to found - засновувати) Harvard College, 140 years before American independence (незалежність). Other early institutions of higher learning (вищі навчальні заклади) were the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, established (заснований) in 1693, and Yale, founded in 1701.
From the 1640s on, Massachusetts required (to require - вимагати) all towns with more than 50 families to provide (забезпечувати) a schoolmaster (шкільний учитель) at public expense (за громадський рахунок). Other colonies also madeprovisions(to make provisions - передбачати)for free (безплатний) public schools. Many academies (schools offering a classical education (освіта) as well as more practical training (навчання)) opened throughout (протягом) the next century, including the one established by Benjamin Franklin in Philadelphia in 1751. The movement (рух)forfreepublic schoolsgained (to gain - одержувати)its greatest impulse in the 1830s, however. By 1850, every state had provided for a system of free public schools open to all and paid for by public taxes (податки).
In 1862, Congress passed a law (to pass a law - прийняти закон) which provided states with public (federal) lands used for higher education, especially for the establishment (заснування) of agricultural and mechanical arts (ремісний) colleges. These new state-supported (утримуваний державою) institutions joined (to join - приєднуватися) the large number of older, well-established (добре влаштований), and well-to-do (заможний) privately funded (фінансований приватними особами) universities. They were important in the democratization of higher education in the United States. By 1900, there were almost a thousand institutions of higher education in the U.S. Among them were law and medical "schools" and hundreds of small, four-year liberal arts (гуманітарний) colleges.
Today, 88 percent of American children attend (to attend - відвідувати) public schools and 12 percent go to private schools. Any year, about 12 million Americans enter the over 3,000 colleges and universities of every type: private, public, church-related (зв'язаний з церквою), small and large, in cities, counties (округи), and states. Close (близько) to 80 percent of the college students attend public institutions, while a little over 20 percent go to privately supported universities and colleges.
The early emphasis (наголос) given to education remains(to remain - залишатися) today. Most historians agree(to agree - погоджуватися) that a great deal of the economic, political, scientific, and cultural progress America has made in its relatively (відносно) short history is due (зобов'язаний) to its devotion (відданість) to the ideal of equal opportunity (рівна можливість). This is the ideal of educating (надання освіти) as many Americans as possible, to the best of their abilities (у міру їх здібностей). There is little doubt (сумнів) that American education in its aim (мета) to provide equality of opportunity as well as excellence (висока якість) has raised (to raise - піднімати) the overall (загальний) level of education of Americans. It has encouraged (to encourage - заохочувати) more Americans than ever before to study for advanced degrees (вищі ступені) and to become involved (займатися) in specialized research (дослідження). Many people believe that the future of society (суспільство) depends on the quantity (кількість) and quality (якість) of its educated citizens (громадяни). It explains (to explain - пояснювати)why a great many Americans are still willing(to will - бажати)to give more money to education, even during times of economic difficulty.

Вправа 18. 1. Прочитайте текст, придумайте заголовок до нього і визначте головну ідею:
In higher education, and especially at the graduate (=рівень спеціаліста) schools (those following (той, що іде за) the first four years of college), the U.S. has an extremely (надзвичайно) competitive and highly selective (той, що відбирає, селективний) system. And it becomes increasingly (все більш) selective the higher the level. Moreover, because each university generally sets (to set - установлювати) its own admission (вступ, вступний) standards, the best universities are also the most difficult to get into (входити).
Some universities are very selective even at the undergraduate (= рівень бакалавра) or beginning levels. In 1984, for example, some 15,600 individuals sought(to seek - добиватися) admission to Stanford University, a private university in southern California. Many state-supported universities also have fairly (досить) rigid (жорсткий) admission requirements (вимоги). The University of California at Berkeley, for example, admitted (to admit - приймати) about 65 percent of all applicants in 1984. For Harvard, the figure is 17 percent (1984). Admission to law or medical schools and other graduate programs has always been highly selective. It is true that children who wish (to wish - бажати, хотіти) someday to go to one of the better universities start working for this goal (ціль) in elementary (початковий) school.
Needless (зайвий)to say, those children who have attended better schools, or who come from families with better educated parents, often have an advantage (перевага) over those who don't. This remains a problem in the U.S., where equality of opportunity is a central cultural goal. Not surprisingly, the members of racial minorities (расові меншини) are the most deprived (позбавлений)in this respect (відношення). In 1985, for instance, 19.4 percent of all Americans 25 years and older had completed (to complete - закінчувати) four years of college or more. However, the figure for blacks was 11.1 percent and for Hispanics (іспаномовні американці) 8.5 percent. Compared with (у порівнянні з) the figures from 1970, when the national average was only 10.7 percent (with 11.3 percent for whites, 4.4 percent for blacks, and 7.6 percentfor students of Spanish origin), this reveals (to reveal - показувати, виявляти) a considerable improvement (поліпшення) within just 14 years. Many different programs aimed (націлений) at improving educational opportunities among minority groups exist (to exist - існувати) at all levels - local, state, and federal. They have met with (to meet with - зазнавати) some, even if moderate (помірний), success.
