2. Чтобы выяснить больше, исследователи недавно воспользовались продвинутыми методами визуализации, включая рентгеновские лучи компьютерной томографии, для того, чтобы заглянуть вовнутрь металлических фрагментов и проверить древнюю надпись на данном  приборе.

3. Исследователи открыли, что у данного механизма было 30 бронзовых шестерён, в каждой из которых по 225 зубьев, похоже, что вырезанных вручную.

VII Presentations

-Some of you have prepared presentations, before listening to them lets give the meaning to two words “sensation” and “invention”

Don’t forget  to use  cliché

Сенсация- сильное ошеломляющее  впечатление от какого-то события и событие, которое вызывает эти чувства.

Sensation is a wonderful and stunning impression because of  a special event and it  can be  an event which provokes such feelings.

Invention is something that is invented. It is a discovery of a new thing.
