SUBJECT AREA: Paper and printing

[br]

b. 18 December 1818 Horsmonden, Kent, England

d. 10 October 1894 Brighton, England

[br]

English inventor of the first effective embossed reading type for use by the blind and visually handicapped.

[br]

Having lost the sight of one eye from scarlet fever at the age of 4, by the time he was 22 he had become completely blind. Dissatisfied with the existing Frères system of embossed letters, he established that the twenty-six letters of the alphabet could be encompassed in only nine variously positioned symbols. These were sufficiently adaptable so that by the time of his death they had been utilized for 476 languages and dialects. Although superseded for more general use by Braille, the Moon system is still in current use for those with defective touch sense and other disabilities. With the assistance of his son, who became a physician, and his daughter, who continued the work after his death, he established a centre in Brighton where the production of Moon transcriptions in still carried on.

16 становиться

гл.— 1. to become; 2. to get; 3. to grow; 4. to turn; 5. to go

Все английские соответствия русского глагола становиться образуют сочетания с последующим прилагательным и обозначают разный характер обретения данного качества или состояния.

The situation becomes worse, — Ситуация ухудшается. He became President in 2001. — Он стал президентом в 2001 году. The sky became dark. — Небо потемнело.

The world's population is growing fasterthan predicted. — Население планеты растет быстрее, чем это предсказывалось. The waiting list for housing is growing longer every year. — С каждым годом список людей, стоящих в очереди на жилье растет./С каждым годом список людей, стоящих в очереди на жилье становится все длиннее.

4. to turn — становиться (подчеркивает быстроту, внезапность перехода в другое качество; часто используется для указания изменении цвета; глагол to turn не сочетается с прилагательными типа old, ill, tired) to turn red — покраснеть; to turn pale — побледнеть The sea turned black. — Море вдруг почернсло./Море вдруг потемнело. The milk turned sour. — Молоко скисло. The weather turned quite chilly in the afternoon. — Днем вдруг похолодало./Днем стало гораздо прохладнее.
