Today railway transport is quiet different than in old times. There are many thousands of locomotives, hundreds of thousands of cars and oil-cisterns. The trains today go much faster. The whole wagon fleet was fitted with continuous brakes, and hundreds of thousands of wagons were equipped with automatic couplings. Many old lines were improved and electrified and the use of diesel traction was begun. Heavy rails were laid extensively and a substantial mileage was equipped with automatic block signaling.

As the old story shows, people have always thought the wind was angry and destructive while the sun was warm and life-giving. And everyone knows that the wind and the sun are very powerful.
In 1934, the wind blew at 372 kilometers per hour in New Hampshire in the USA. In 1958, a powerful wind called a tornado, in Texas, USA, blew at 451 kilometers per hour.
The temperature in the centre of the sun is about 15,400,000 degrees Celsius. It burns 4,400,000 tones of hydrogen every second. The light from the sun is so powerful that it gives life to planet Earth.

There are lots of different types of engineering.  1_______. The whole science of engineering can be broadly divided into three main areas:
- civil engineering (buildings, roads, etc.)
- 2_______
- electrical engineering (electricity, lighting, etc.)
Each of these three main area can be divided into specialist subjects.
Civil engineering covers mining and bridge building, mechanical engineering covers aeronautical and automobile engineering, electrical engineering covers electricity generation and wiring.
Clearly there is a big difference between building a road and designing a computer system so the best advice for students is:
think carefully about which area of engineering interests you most. It is difficult to study if you are not interested – and you may do the job until you are 60 years old.
think about what sort of person you are. Will you be happiest working in an office, in a factory, or alone?
3_______ Do you want to work with other people or alone? 4_______.
When you have decided which area you are interested in and thought realistically about what sort of person you are, then you can decide what sort of engineer you want to be.
