, ПЕРЕВЕДИТЕ текст на АНГЛИЙСКИЙ язык: Безусловно, техника делает нашу жизнь лучше и проще. Но имеет ли она всегда только положительные стороны? Давайте разбирёмся. Компьютеры - уникальное изобретение человека. Они экономят много места и времени для человека. Компьютер может хранить огромное количество информации, поэтому нам и не приходится собирать документы, книги для поиска нужной информации. Более того, благодаря Интернету мы можем работать, делать покупки. Интернет очень положительно подействовал для детей-инвалидов на домашнем обучении. Теперь с помощью интернета дети-инвалиды могут учится как и здоровые дети, учителям это так же экономит время. Посмотрев с другой стороны, использование компьютера приводит и к проблемам. Во-первых, те люди, которые проводят много времени за компьютером, получают проблемы со здоровьем: зрение становится со временем хуже, портится осанка. Во-вторых, школьники могут легко списать домашнее задание с интернета, не разобравшись самому как решать задание. Хуже всего, люди становятся зависимыми от компьютеров и гаджетов не обращая внимания на окружающий мир.
Письменно переведите текст US Customs inspector Harry Standish arrived at Customs inspection station number eleven. Shortly before that, a red light on a wall panel near the centre of the big Customs Hall indicated that an inspecting office had a problem and needed supervisory help. Most of the passengers who had arrived aboard Scandinavian Airlines DC-8 from Copenhagen, a Cleared had cleared Customs and had left. Only this well-dressed American woman, Mrs. Harriet Mossman, who had just returned from a month trip around England, France and Denmark, insisted that all she had were new shoes. The total declared value was ninety dollars — ten dollars less than she was allowed duty-free, The young officer had been suspicious. To begin with, six dresses, all of good quality — had had their labels removed. The cut of the dresses was unmistakable French, so was the tailoring of‘ the fur coat. The same thing was with three expensive sweaters. They also were without labels, and were unmistakable from Scotland, in typical British shades, not available in the United States. All this and much else customs officers learned as part of their training. "Madam," Inspector Standish said, "is there anything“ else you wish to declare?” Mrs. Mossman answered indignantly: "There certainly isn’t!” "In that case, Madam," Inspector Standish said, "will you kindly open your handbag!” The woman protested, "But surely, purses are never inspected. I’ve been through Customs many times… " "Normally, they are not. But we do have the right." Reluctantly, Mrs. Mossman opened her purse. Harry Standish inspected lipstick and a gold compact. When he probed the powder in the compact, he extracted a diamond and ruby ring. There was a tube of hand lotion, partially used. When be pressed the tube near the top, there was something hard inside. He wondered when smugglers would come up with something original. Such old tricks. He had seen them all many times. He thought of the foolishness of Mrs. Mossman and the many like her. If she had been honest about the coat and dresses, and declared them the duty payable it would not have been great, especially for someone who was clearly well to do. Certainly her handbag would not have been opened and she wouldn’t have been caught red-handed.
