Better metals are vital to technological progress

1. Since the earliest days the preparation of metals for mechanical use was vital to the advance of civilization. Gold, silver and copper were the first to be used by a primitive man, as they were found free in nature. Today we know more than sixty-five metals available in large enough quantities to be used in industry. 2 Metals are mostly solid at ordinary temperature and possess comparatively high melting points with the exception of mercury. They are for the most part¹ good conductors of heat and electricity, and silver is the best in this respect². As to³ their chemical properties the first point to be mentioned is that they vary widely in degree of chemical activity: some are enormously active and others are inert. The Earth contains a large number of metals useful to man. Of all metals to be utilized in industry iron remains by far⁴ the most important. Modern industry needs considerable quantities of this metal either in the form of iron or steel.

3. To get the desirable characteristics in metals or to improve them the art to mix
   metals and other substances began to develop. The first alloys that were formed in this
   way were sometimes stronger, tougher, harder and more elastic than the metals of
   which they were composed. To estimate nowadays how many alloys there exist in the
   modern world is difficult because their numbers increase daily.

4. To serve special uses modern metals and alloys must be lighter yet stronger, more
   corrosion-resistant, more suitable for automated fabrication yet less expensive than
   those available before.

5. Today transformation, communication, construction, farming and manufacturing all
   depend on the availability of suitable metals and alloys.

Пояснения к тексту:

1. magneto - heat engine - магнитно-тепловой двигатель

2. inexhaustible- неисчерпаемый, неистощимый.

Sun-driven engine

1. It is common knowledge that certain metals and their alloys are attracted by a magnet. After heating, this property vanishes; it is restored after cooling down. A new
   magneto-heat engine¹ works on this principle. This invention relates to devices which,
   transform thermal power, for instance, the power of the sun rays, into a mechanical
   power of rotation.

2. We know solar power is inexhaustible² and its use does not harm the environment.
   That's why such importance is attached to devices which make it possible to apply the
   idea of direct use of solar power, transforming it into mechanical forms of power. The
   development of an engine directly driven by a heat source such as solar power, makes
   it possible to simplify and make power generation considerably cheaper, in comparison
   to the existing thermal engines we use today.

3. The rotor of the new engine is made of an alloy that loses its magnetic properties at
   100°C. If the rotor is heated on one side, the cold side of the rotor will turn toward the
   magnet. Since heating continues, the rotor goes on rotating too. Thus solar power can
   be used as a source of heat in this case. The magneto-heat engine can drive pumps in
   waterless districts, it can also be widely used for watering greenery in cities and
   settlements.

4. By using thermo-magnetic alloys it is possible to develop a lot of automatic devices, for example, solar clocks, thermometers, etc. Mention should be made that these devices can withstand extreme temperatures. To organize the production of the necessary alloys is simple as there is no need for rare materials or complex technology.

On bridge building

1. The history of Russian bridge building is closely connected with the name of Kulibin,
   one of the most talented self-taught engineers¹. From his early childhood Kulibin
   showed a keen interest in all kinds of mechanical devices. To acquire skill and
   knowledge became the boy's greatest desire. But books were difficult to obtain in the
   provincial town where he lived and there was no one to instruct him in mechanics. The
   difficulties which he had to overcome seemed irresistible. But in spite of all that he
   succeeded in going to Petersburg where he was appointed mechanic to the Academy of
   sciences and since then spent all his free time and all his money on new inventions.

2. In Petersburg Kulibin undertook a very difficult engineering problem - to design a
   bridge across the Neva as there was not a single permanent bridge in this city to
   provide a crossing² at any season of the year. Kulibin was the first to think of spanning³the river with an arched bridge. According to his plan the bridge was to have a single
   span to leave a free water way for ships and barges. It was a daring idea: arched
   bridges of similar construction had been built before but no engineer dared even to think
   of constructing a bridge with a three hundred metre span.

3. After the model was completed it had to be submitted to a special commission set
   up by the Academy of Sciences and invaded by foreign scientists and specialists at the
   time of Catherine II. They considered themselves to be much superior to Russian
   people whose intellect and talent they utterly ignored.

4 In spite of general disbelief the testing of the model was a success. No failure resulted even when a weight much greater than the maximum load was applied to the bridge. In spite of the favourable conclusion no practical result followed.
