Traffic Control at intersections

To drive safely, you must follow many rules and laws. They tell where and when you can drive. To follow these rules, you must know what traffic lights and signs mean. You must understand «right-of-way» laws and how to use traffic lanes. You must know where and when you can park.

Traffic lights, sings, and "right-of-way" rules tell you when to go or stop at intersections. These are what the colors of traffic lights mean:

Red- A red signal light means "STOP".

Red Arrow - A red arrow means: "STOP» until the green signal or green arrow appears. A turn may not be made against a red arrow.

Flashing Red - A flashing red signal light means exactly the same as a stop sign: namely, STOP! After stopping, proceed when safe, observing the "right-of- way" rules.

Yellow - A yellow signal light warns you that the red signal is about to appear: When you see the yellow light, you should stop, if you can do so safely. If you can't stop, look out for vehicles that may enter the intersection when the light changes.

Flashing Yellow - A flashing yellow signal light warns you to be careful. Slow down and be especially alert.

Yellow Arrow - A yellow arrow means the "protected" turning time period is ending. Be prepared to obey the next signal which could be the green or red light or the red arrow.

Green - A green light means "GO", but first you must let any vehicles, bicycles, or pedestrians remaining in the intersection when your signal changes to green, get through before you move ahead. Make the left turn only if you have enough space to complete the turn before any oncoming vehicle becomes a hazard. Do not enter an intersection, even when the light is green, unless there is enough space to completely cross before the light turns red.

Green Arrow - A green arrow means "GO". Turn in the direction the arrow is pointing. But first you must yield to any vehicle still in the intersection. The green arrow pointing right or left allows you to make a "protected" turn. This means oncoming vehicles are stopped by a red light as long as the green arrow is lighted.

Traffic Signal Blackout - If all traffic signal lights are not working because of an electrical power failure, you must stop at the intersection and then proceed when

37

you know other turning and approaching vehicles will also be stopping. A black-out traffic signal is the same as a stop sign controlled intersection in all directions.

МОДУЛЬ 8

1. Выучите слова и словосочетания по теме:

2.Повторите порядок слов в английском предложении.

Ванглийском предложении каждый член предложения, как правило, имеет свое определенное место. В простом распространенном повествовательном предложении на первом месте стоит

1) подлежащее, 2) сказуемое, 3) второстепенные члены предложения

(дополнение и обстоятельства образа действия, места, времени).

Например: 1) I, 2) gave, 3) mу brother, 3) a book, 4) yesterday.

Английские предложения отличаются от русских тем, что в них всегда есть подлежащее и сказуемое. Поэтому в безличных предложениях в качестве формального подлежащего используется местоимение it. Очень часто безличные предложения описывают явление природы, состояние погоды, обозначают время, расстояние:

It is cold today. Сегодня холодно. It rains. Идет дождь. It's nice to meet you.

Приятно познакомиться. It is nine o'clock now. Сейчас девять часов.

Оборот there is / there are служит для выражения наличия (отсутствия) какого-либо предмета в определенном месте или в определенное время. Выбор формы глагола to be зависит от числа существительного, следующего сразу за ним:

There is a chair and two armchairs in the room. – В комнате стул и два кресла. There are two armchairs and a chair in the room. – В комнате два кресла и стул.

Вопросительные предложения с оборотом there is / there are строятся следующим образом:

Общий вопрос: Is there anything in the bag? Will there be lessons tomorrow? Специальный вопрос: What is there in the bag?

3.Выпишите из текста безличные предложения.

4.Укажите подлежащее, сказуемое и второстепенные члены в каждом

предложении:

1.The motor is coupled to the driving wheels through a transmission or gear reduction system.
