Exercise 14: Prepare your own Resume containing all the necessary information. Make it as professional and eye-catching as possible.

Exercise 15: Before translation study the theory – translation of proper names:

Имена собственные в переводе на русский язык чаще всего передаются средствами практической транскрипции, в которой для передачи слов одного языка пользуются средствами орфографии другого языка. В официальных юридических документах (уставы, доверенности и т.д.) рекомендуется в скобках после перевода указывать имена собственные латинскими буквами во избежание возможного неправильного понимания написания русскими буквами или для удобства пользования ссылкой на это имя собственное в дальнейшем. Например, Джон Смит /John Smith/

При транскрибировании фамилий и имен известных ученых, государственных деятелей и др. следует руководствоваться установившейся практикой, поскольку традиционное написание их фамилии и имени может не соответствовать фонетическому принципу, например:

Louis de Broglie - Луи де Бройль, Carl Friedrich von Weizsackar – Карл Фридрих фон Вейцзеккер, Ван Клиберн, а не Вэн Клайберн, Рузвельт, а не Розевельт. Иностранные имена нельзя русифицировать, их следует транскрибировать в соответствии с правилами произношения данного имени, например: Johann – Иоганн, а не Иван, Paul – Пауль (нем.), Поль (фр.), Пол (англ.), а не Павел, Georg – Георг (нем.) – George – Джордж (англ.), Жорж (фр.), а не Георгий. Исключение составляют имена, которые по традиции русифицированы, например: Nikolaus Kopernikus – Николай Коперник.

Артикли, предлоги (в том числе однобуквенные), частицы в иностранных фамилиях и именах da, das, de, del, der, don, dona, du, la, le, van, von и др. транскрибируют и пишут со строчной буквы и раздельно с относящейся к ним частью имени, например: Leonardo da Vinchi – Леонардо да Винчи, von der Stolz – фон дер Штольц. Артикли, предлоги и частицы пишут с прописной буквы, если они с фамилией образуют одно слово, если они по традиции соединяются с фамилией через дефис или апостроф или если в иностранном написании они имеют прописную букву, например: O'Neill – О'Нилл, Van de Graaf – Ван-де-Грааф, Laplace – Лаплас.

Частицы Мас-, Mс-, Saint чаще всего присоединяют к имени через дефис (Сент-, Санта-, Мак-, Сен-) и пишут в переводе с прописной буквы, например: McClain – Мак-Клейн, Saint Lawrence – Сент-Лоуренс, Saint-Simon – Сен-Симон, San Marino – Сан-Марино, Santa Cruz – Санта-Крус. Однако имеются и устоявшиеся отклонения от этого общего правила (например, Маккарти, Макдоналдс, Маккензи).

В отношении написания многих исторических имен существуют твердо укоренившиеся переводческие традиции. Эти традиции выражаются в том, что в литературе прочно вошли в практику такие способы передачи собственных имен, которые порой не основываются ни на каких принципах или основываются на принципах, неверных с современной точки зрения. Так, английский король Charles I известен в истории как Карл Первый. Точно так же английский король James называется по-русски не Джеймс, а Яков; все короли, носившие имя William, у нас именуются Вильгельмами, а, например, король George V — это Георг V.

Exercise 16: Find in the text the proper names you’ll translate with the help of transcription.

Exercise 17: Translate the text:

THE FUTURE OF PHARMACISTS

1. Machines can count pills and put them into a bottle. Dispensing kiosks can process prescription refills during off-hours. What does that leave for pharmacists of the future to do?

2. “The pharmacist is going to be responsible for managing the effective distribution process of medication. Current and future automation will assist with that, because anything that automates the dispensing and distribution process will obviously free the pharmacist to fulfill more of a clinical role as well,” said James Owen, BS Pharm.

3. Simply put, pharmacists and pharmacies of tomorrow must find ways to increase profit margins by reducing the cost of prescribing, embracing technology, and focusing more on patient counseling.

4. Technological options available to pharmacies today are as numerous as they are convenient. According to Bill G. Felkey, BA, “As the healthcare system becomes more digital, the most exciting thing is that we will have the potential to have more time for patient-centered activities.”

5. “We will probably see a shift in the utilization of pharmacists - from a product focus to a patient focus,” said H.W. Matthews, Ph.D.

6. Jim Owen, director of professional practice, agreed. “The pharmacy of the future will be a place where individuals are providing clinical care. The pharmacist has been and will evolve to be the healthcare provider who actually manages the use of medications for patients, in addition to managing their effective distribution process”.

7. “We also believe there are opportunities for pharmacies in home medical equipment. Despite accreditation and surety bond legislation, home medical equipment is an excellent complement to many pharmacies and a welcome opportunity to build additional profitability into your business.”

MODAL VERBS

Here's a list of the Modal Verbs in English:

 

can	could	may	might	will
would	must	shall	should	ought to

Modals are different from normal verbs:

1. They don't use an 's' for the third person singular.

2. They make questions by inversion ('she can go' becomes 'can she go?')

3. They are followed directly by the infinitive of another verb (without 'to')
