1) Определенный артикль употребляется как перед исчисляемыми, так и перед неисчисляемыми существительными в единственном или множественном числе.

2) Определенный артикль употребляется в том случае, если соответствующее существительное употреблено как определенное, то есть если слушающий, по мнению говорящего, может однозначно установить, какой конкретно предмет имеет в виду говорящий. В частности, с определенным артиклем употребляются существительные, обозначающие информацию, уже известную из предыдущего контекста или непосредственно из окружающей ситуации.

I saw a film yesterday. The film was about animals. — Вчера я смотрел фильм (неопр.). Фильм (опр. — упомянутый фильм) был про животных.

Close the windows, please — Пожалуйста, закройте окна (опр. - окна комнаты, к которой находятся говорящий и слушающий)

3) Существительные, обозначающие предметы, существующие в единственном экземпляре и известные всем (например, the sun — солнце), как правило, употребляются с определенным артиклем. Также с определенным артиклем употребляются существительные, обозначающие предметы и явления, типичные для окружения любого человека, являющегося потенциальным адресатом соответствующего высказывания, и, соответственно, считающиеся общеизвестными: the weather — погода, the police — полиция, the sea — море, водное пространство (в противоположность суше).

Ursula looked at the moon — Урсула взглянула на луну.

English people always talk about the weather — Англичане всегда говорят о погоде.

This road leads through the mountains towards Cordova — Эта дорога ведет через горы в Кордову.

4) Если существительное в единственном числе употреблено в родовом значении, то есть для обозначения всего класса соответствующих предметов как целого или любого представителя этого класса, то при нем ставится определенный артикль. В частности, существительное в единственном числе с определенным артиклем, употребленное как родовое, может называть вид растений, животных, машин и т.д., обозначать музыкальные инструменты.

The elephant is a native only of the torrid zone and its vicinities — Слон обитает только в тропиках и смежных с ними зонах.

At the century's beginning the telephone was new and the computer not even invented — В начале века телефон был новинкой, а компьютер даже еще не был изобретен.

Can you play the guitar? — Ты умеешь играть на гитаре?

Употребление нулевого артикля при существительных в родовом значении см. Zero article, 1.

5) Как правило, если при существительном имеется определение в превосходной степени, то перед ним ставится определенный артикль (превосходная степень прилагательного предполагает уникальность предмета в контексте).

At the age of 17, he was the youngest member of the expedition. — Семнадцати лет от роду, он был самым молодым участником экспедиции.

Употребление определенного артикля с прилагательными в превосходной степени см. тж. Superlative degree: adjectives, 2..

6) Существительное обычно употребляется с определенным артиклем, если за ним следует конструкция с предлогом of, служащая для ограничения и уточнения значения, даже если вся именная группа имеет неопределенное значение.

Ten steps farther, the hind-wheel of the carriage, catching the wheel of a heavy wagon, broke to splinters. — Через несколько метров заднее колесо повозки, зацепившись за колесо большой телеги, разлетелось на куски.

SUBJECT AREA: Mining and extraction technology

[br]

b. August 1863 Woolsthorpe, Grantham, Lincolnshire, England

d. 23 March 1951 London, England

[br]

English organizer of the Yukon gold fields in Canada, who introduced hydraulic mining.

[br]

A direct descendant of Sir Isaac Newton, Treadgold worked as a schoolmaster, mostly at Bath College, for eleven years after completing his studies at Oxford University. He gained a reputation as an energetic teacher who devoted much of his work to sport, but he resigned his post and returned to Oxford; here, in 1897, he learned of the gold rush in the Klondike in the Canadian northwest. With a view to making his own fortune, he took a course in geology at the London Geological College and in 1898 set off for Dawson City, in the Yukon Territory. Working as a correspondent for two English newspapers, he studied thoroughly the situation there; he decided to join the stampede, but as a rather sophisticated gold hustler.

As there were limited water resources for sluicing or dredging, and underground mining methods were too expensive, Treadgold conceived the idea of hydraulic mining. He designed a ditch-and-siphon system for bringing large amounts of water down from the mountains; in 1901, after three years of negotiation with the Canadian government in Ottawa, he obtained permission to set up the Treadgold Concession to cover the water supply to the Klondike mining claims. This enabled him to supply giant water cannons which battered the hillsides, breaking up the gravel which was then sluiced. Massive protests by the individual miners in the Dawson City region, which he had overrun with his system, led to the concession being rescinded in 1904. Two years later, however, Treadgold began again, forming the Yukon Gold Company, initially in partnership with Solomon Guggenheim; he started work on a channel, completed in 1910, to carry water over a distance of 115 km (70 miles) down to Bonanza Creek. In 1919 he founded the Granville Mining Company, which was to give him control of all the gold-mining operations in the southern Klondike region. When he returned to London in the following year, the company began to fail, and in 1920 he went bankrupt with liabilities totalling more than $2 million. After the Yukon Consolidated Gold Corporation had been formed in 1923, Treadgold returned to the Klondike in 1925 in order to acquire the assets of the operating companies; he gained control and personally supervised the operations. But the company drifted towards disaster, and in 1930 he was dismissed from active management and his shares were cancelled by the courts; he fought for their reinstatement right up until his death.

   1) To Exist Is to Be Perceived

   It is indeed an opinion strangely prevailing amongst men, that houses, mountains, rivers, and, in a word, all sensible objects, have an existence, natural or real, distinct from their being perceived by the understanding. But, with how great an assurance and acquiescence soever this principle may be entertained in the world, yet whoever shall find in his heart to call it into question may, if I mistake not, perceive it to involve a manifest contradiction. For, what are the forementioned objects but things we perceive by sense? and what do we perceive besides our own ideas or sensations? and is it not plainly repugnant that any one of these, or any combination of them, should exist unperceived? (Berkeley, 1996, Pt. I, No. 4, p. 25)

   2) Abstract Science or Demonstration Is a More Perfect Species of Knowledge

   It seems to me that the only objects of the abstract sciences or of demonstration are quantity and number, and that all attempts to extend this more perfect species of knowledge beyond these bounds are mere sophistry and illusion. As the component parts of quantity and number are entirely similar, their relations become intricate and involved; and nothing can be more curious, as well as useful, than to trace, by a variety of mediums, their equality or inequality, through their different appearances.

   But as all other ideas are clearly distinct and different from each other, we can never advance farther, by our utmost scrutiny, than to observe this diversity, and, by an obvious reﬂection, pronounce one thing not to be another. Or if there be any difficulty in these decisions, it proceeds entirely from the undeterminate meaning of words, which is corrected by juster definitions. That the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the squares of the other two sides cannot be known, let the terms be ever so exactly defined, without a train of reasoning and enquiry. But to convince us of this proposition, that where there is no property, there can be no injustice, it is only necessary to define the terms, and explain injustice to be a violation of property. This proposition is, indeed, nothing but a more imperfect definition. It is the same case with all those pretended syllogistical reasonings, which may be found in every other branch of learning, except the sciences of quantity and number; and these may safely, I think, be pronounced the only proper objects of knowledge and demonstration. (Hume, 1975, Sec. 12, Pt. 3, pp. 163-165)

   3) Knowledge Derives from Two Fundamental Sources of the Mind

   Our knowledge springs from two fundamental sources of the mind; the first is the capacity of receiving representations (the ability to receive impressions), the second is the power to know an object through these representations (spontaneity in the production of concepts).

   Through the first, an object is given to us; through the second, the object is thought in relation to that representation.... Intuition and concepts constitute, therefore, the elements of all our knowledge, so that neither concepts without intuition in some way corresponding to them, nor intuition without concepts, can yield knowledge. Both may be either pure or empirical.... Pure intuitions or pure concepts are possible only a priori; empirical intuitions and empirical concepts only a posteriori. If the receptivity of our mind, its power of receiving representations in so far as it is in any way affected, is to be called "sensibility," then the mind's power of producing representations from itself, the spontaneity of knowledge, should be called "understanding." Our nature is so constituted that our intuitions can never be other than sensible; that is, it contains only the mode in which we are affected by objects. The faculty, on the other hand, which enables us to think the object of sensible intuition is the understanding.... Without sensibility, no object would be given to us; without understanding, no object would be thought. Thoughts without content are empty; intuitions without concepts are blind. It is therefore just as necessary to make our concepts sensible, that is, to add the object to them in intuition, as to make our intuitions intelligible, that is to bring them under concepts. These two powers or capacities cannot exchange their functions. The understanding can intuit nothing, the senses can think nothing. Only through their union can knowledge arise. (Kant, 1933, Sec. 1, Pt. 2, B74-75 [p. 92])

   4) The Means by Which Metaphysics Can Be Perfected as a Science

   Metaphysics, as a natural disposition of Reason is real, but it is also, in itself, dialectical and deceptive.... Hence to attempt to draw our principles from it, and in their employment to follow this natural but none the less fallacious illusion can never produce science, but only an empty dialectical art, in which one school may indeed outdo the other, but none can ever attain a justifiable and lasting success. In order that, as a science, it may lay claim not merely to deceptive persuasion, but to insight and conviction, a Critique of Reason must exhibit in a complete system the whole stock of conceptions a priori, arranged according to their different sources-the Sensibility, the understanding, and the Reason; it must present a complete table of these conceptions, together with their analysis and all that can be deduced from them, but more especially the possibility of synthetic knowledge a priori by means of their deduction, the principles of its use, and finally, its boundaries....

   This much is certain: he who has once tried criticism will be sickened for ever of all the dogmatic trash he was compelled to content himself with before, because his Reason, requiring something, could find nothing better for its occupation. Criticism stands to the ordinary school metaphysics exactly in the same relation as chemistry to alchemy, or as astron omy to fortune-telling astrology. I guarantee that no one who has comprehended and thought out the conclusions of criticism, even in these Prolegomena, will ever return to the old sophistical pseudo-science. He will rather look forward with a kind of pleasure to a metaphysics, certainly now within his power, which requires no more preparatory discoveries, and which alone can procure for reason permanent satisfaction. (Kant, 1891, pp. 115-116)

   5) Knowledge Is Only Real in the Form of System

   Knowledge is only real and can only be set forth fully in the form of science, in the form of system. Further, a so-called fundamental proposition or first principle of philosophy, even if it is true, it is yet none the less false, just because and in so far as it is merely a fundamental proposition, merely a first principle. It is for that reason easily refuted. The refutation consists in bringing out its defective character; and it is defective because it is merely the universal, merely a principle, the beginning. If the refutation is complete and thorough, it is derived and developed from the nature of the principle itself, and not accomplished by bringing in from elsewhere other counter-assurances and chance fancies. It would be strictly the development of the principle, and thus the completion of its deficiency, were it not that it misunderstands its own purport by taking account solely of the negative aspect of what it seeks to do, and is not conscious of the positive character of its process and result. The really positive working out of the beginning is at the same time just as much the very reverse: it is a negative attitude towards the principle we start from. Negative, that is to say, in its one-sided form, which consists in being primarily immediate, a mere purpose. It may therefore be regarded as a refutation of what constitutes the basis of the system; but more correctly it should be looked at as a demonstration that the basis or principle of the system is in point of fact merely its beginning. (Hegel, 1910, pp. 21-22)

   6) Knowledge, Action, and Evaluation Are Interconnected

   Knowledge, action, and evaluation are essentially connected. The primary and pervasive significance of knowledge lies in its guidance of action: knowing is for the sake of doing. And action, obviously, is rooted in evaluation. For a being which did not assign comparative values, deliberate action would be pointless; and for one which did not know, it would be impossible. Conversely, only an active being could have knowledge, and only such a being could assign values to anything beyond his own feelings. A creature which did not enter into the process of reality to alter in some part the future content of it, could apprehend a world only in the sense of intuitive or esthetic contemplation; and such contemplation would not possess the significance of knowledge but only that of enjoying and suffering. (Lewis, 1946, p. 1)

   7) The Evolution of Knowledge

   "Evolutionary epistemology" is a branch of scholarship that applies the evolutionary perspective to an understanding of how knowledge develops. Knowledge always involves getting information. The most primitive way of acquiring it is through the sense of touch: amoebas and other simple organisms know what happens around them only if they can feel it with their "skins." The knowledge such an organism can have is strictly about what is in its immediate vicinity. After a huge jump in evolution, organisms learned to find out what was going on at a distance from them, without having to actually feel the environment. This jump involved the development of sense organs for processing information that was farther away. For a long time, the most important sources of knowledge were the nose, the eyes, and the ears. The next big advance occurred when organisms developed memory. Now information no longer needed to be present at all, and the animal could recall events and outcomes that happened in the past. Each one of these steps in the evolution of knowledge added important survival advantages to the species that was equipped to use it.

   Then, with the appearance in evolution of humans, an entirely new way of acquiring information developed. Up to this point, the processing of information was entirely intrasomatic.... But when speech appeared (and even more powerfully with the invention of writing), information processing became extrasomatic. After that point knowledge did not have to be stored in the genes, or in the memory traces of the brain; it could be passed on from one person to another through words, or it could be written down and stored on a permanent substance like stone, paper, or silicon chips-in any case, outside the fragile and impermanent nervous system. (Csikszentmihalyi, 1993, pp. 56-57)

77 Time conjunctions

Временные союзы

↑ Subordinating conjunctions

↑ Adverbial clause of time

Союзы, вводящие временные придаточные предложения: when, after, as, as long as, as soon as, before, by the time (that), during the time (that), now (that), once, since, until/ till, whenever, while.

Некоторые особенности употребления временных союзов:

1)

а) as, when, while.

Союзы as, when и while ("когда")могут употребляться при описании "фоновой" ситуации, то есть такой ситуации, которая уже имела место раньше и продолжала иметь место, когда произошло событие, о котором говорится в главном предложении. В придаточных предложениях, вводимых этими союзами, используется обычно прошедшее продолженное время (Past continuous), но при while, as возможно также простое прошедшее (Past simple). Союз as обычно вводит не очень важную информацию; придаточное с as стоит в начале предложения.

But while people talked the wedding-day arrived. — Но пока шли разговоры, настал день свадьбы.

And then as I was hurrying off I heard him say, quite loudly, to the doctor: "I'll have no favourites on my ship". — А потом, когда я поспешно убегал оттуда, я услышал, как он довольно громко сказал доктору: "Я не потерплю любимчиков на корабле".

б) while.

Союз while употребляется, если речь идет об одновременных длительных действиях.

There was silence while one might count ten - the master was gathering his wrath. — Пауза длилась столько, что можно было досчитать до десяти - гнев хозяина нарастал.

в) as, when.

Союзы ( just) as и ( just) when употребляются при описании коротких одновременных действий.

And just as he was telling himself that, there came to the door a loud knock. — И как раз когда он говорил себе это, раздался громкий стук в дверь.

2) before, until, as long as.

а) Предложение с союзом before ("прежде чем") предполагает, что действие, о котором идет речь в придаточном предложении, имело место раньше, чем основное действие.

Before reaching the town the hunter branched away into a narrow footpath which led to the mountains. — Не доходя до города, охотник свернул на узкую тропинку, ведущую в горы.

б) Предложение с союзом until ("пока не") предполагает, что действие, о котором речь в придаточном предложении, продолжалось вплоть до основного события. Союз until имеет отрицательное значение, поэтому на русский язык переводится с отрицанием.

When the alarm was raised, she had had no time to get up-stairs: she hid in the west wing until every one was down on the lower floor. — Когда объявили тревогу, у нее не было времени подняться наверх: она пряталась в западном крыле, пока все не спустились на нижний этаж.

в) Если предложение введено союзом as long as ("пока"), то действие, о котором идет речь в главном предложении протекало параллельно с тем действием, о котором речь в придаточном, до окончания последнего.

You'll never be a painter as long as you live. — Ты никогда в жизни не станешь художником.

3) ... hardly... when/ before;... scarcely... when/ before;... no sooner... than.

а) Перечисленные конструкции употребляются (часто в сочетании с прошедшим совершенным (Past perfect)) для описания двух действий, одно из которых произошло сразу после другого.

This answer no sooner reached Britain, than the whole nation were transported with joy. — Как только эта новость достигла Британии, население возликовало.

I had hardly walked half-way towards the house when Sir Percival, who had withdrawn in the opposite direction, suddenly stopped and called me back. — Не успел я пройти половину пути до дома, как сэр Персиваль, который шел в противоположном направлении, неожиданно остановился и окликнул меня.

б) В письменном языке при употреблении таких конструкций иногда используется обратный порядок слов (см. Inversion):

No sooner was she out of sight, than Emma exclaimed, 'What an exquisite possession a good picture of her would be!' — Не успела она скрыться из виду, как Эмма воскликнула: " Каким исключительным достоянием мог бы быть ее портрет!"

Scarcely had Daisy opened her lips when a loud ring echoed through the house. — Не успела Дейзи раскрыть рта, как по дому эхом разнесся громкий звонок.
