The engineers of that plant are said to have constructed new device. This new device is expected to give a great increase of productivity in future. The designers are assumed to take into account these phenomena. This group appears to work much at this problem. This method proves to be reasonable. He is unlikely to come back in a week. The experiment is sure to be made next month. These tests are certain to give us better results. This laboratory turns out to be working out new possible applications of lasers.

reasonable – приемлемый; digital – цифровой

новые данные эксперимента будут опубликованы.

It was late for them to begin discussing this question. The students waited for the meeting to start. Nearly a month is required for the Moon to circle the Earth. Four years are required for the light to travel from the nearest star to the Earth. The time necessary for the Sun to move a complete circle around the galactic centre is some 200 million years. Eight minutes are required for light to travel from the Sun to the Earth. If oxygen is present on Mars, its amount is too small for our instruments to detect. The time required for the mass to come to rest can be calculated without difficulty. Everybody waited for new data of the experiment to be published. It was important for us to solve this problem.

to circle – делать оборот; oxygen – кислород; to detect – обнаруживать; to utilize – применять, использовать; to surround – окружать; processing – обработка; data – данные
