Рекомендации по проведению

уроков с применением   модульной
технологии
.

    Законом «Об образовании» Республики Казахстан
утвержден принцип вариативности в выборе форм, методов, технологий обучения,
позволяющий использовать наиболее оптимальные и эффективные инновационные
технологии в образовательном процессе учебного заведения. Согласно Рабочей
Программе колледжа  по  специальности «Правоведение» на втором курсе  я  ввожу
в структуру урока инновационные  технологии, имеющиеся в педагогической науке и
практике с целью успешности проведения уроков и формирования более глубоких знаний,
умений и навыков  обучающихся. Из всех известных мне инновационных технологий,
я решила применять модульную технологию обучения по  М.М. Жанпеисовой.

Выбор мной данной технологии обучения объясняется
следующим:

—   Технология модульного обучения предполагает
стремление к организации личностно- мотивированной, познавательной
деятельности;

—   позволяет строить учебный процесс на основе
диалогического общения.  

 Особенностью
конструирования учебного модуля является система собственно  моей подготовки
как преподавателя  к нему, которая сводилась к следующим шагам:

1 шаг: выявление обязательных знаний, умений и
навыков, целей и задач урока.

2 шаг: изучение всего содержания учебного материала по
модулю.

3 шаг: вычленение ключевых понятий, несущих смысловую
нагрузку по данному модулю. Определение их взаимосвязи и взаимозависимости.

4 шаг: составление опорных схем по всей теме (на
основе выделенных ключевых понятий).

5 шаг: составление тестовых заданий по всему
содержанию учебного модуля (15-20 заданий).

6 шаг: составление блока вопросов и заданий по всему
содержанию учебного материала данного модуля для итогового  зачета (в данном
случае мною применялись и другие формы контроля и оценки знаний, умений и
навыков у студентов :квизы,  самопрезентации и т.п.)

Во вводной части учебного модуля сообщается 
новая информация, которая затем трансформируется  в знания обучающихся  .

Чтобы
цель была принята студентами, т.е. стала побудительной силой,  превратилась в
мотив необходимо, чтобы они   осознавали предполагаемые трудности в достижении
цели, контролировали себя в том, насколько успешно идет продвижение к цели.

При
подготовке диалогической части учебного модуля я вычленила и структурировала
основное содержание учебного материала для разбивки его на части. Подачу
учебного материала для проработки его обучающимися  на каждом уроке следует
давать  определенными порциями, в которых в краткой, ёмкой форме  заключено
содержание всего раздела (темы).

Учебный  материал  подобран  в виде краткого текста,
таблицы или схемы и практических заданий для отработки необходимых навыков,
относящихся к данному учебному элементу.

Организация
работы в малых группах позволит  обучающимся самостоятельно или с определенной
помощью достичь конкретных целей и  поможет    им избежать многих ошибок.

Большое количество упражнений позволит  прочно
сформировать навыки усвоения  лексики и грамматики.

Весь учебный материал готовится   на трех уровнях
сложности: простой, средней  и  сложной. Задания  направлены на снижение
языковых и психологических трудностей,возникающих у студентов  в ходе овладения
иностранным языком. Право выбора  одного из трех уровней оставляются  за каждым
обучающимся. Дополнительно  подготовлены задания проблемного характера,
требующие переноса  знаний. Работа диалогической части строится  с учетом
следующих основных принципов:

— принцип целостного подхода к изучаемому и
познаваемому материалу;

— принцип изучения по нарастающей» сначала в сжатом
виде, затем — «раскручивая» содержание, увеличивая объем и вводя второстепенные
детали или факты;

— принцип «возвращения» к теме учебного модуля на
каждом уроке диалогической части.

В итоговой части обучающиеся  выполняют
разноуровневые задания, пишут  эссе на определенную  на тему, выполняют 
контрольные  проверочные  работы, соответствующие  целям урока .

Одной из причин написания  данного учебно-
методического пособия явилось отсутствие дидактического материала и учебников
для преподавания профессионального английского языка  в группах отделения
«Правоведение» Данное пособие состоит из 7 модулей. Каждый модуль пособия
рассчитан на 6 часов . В пособие  включены тексты на английском и русском
языках по юридической тематике, касающиеся устройства политических систем
Казахстана ,Великобритании и США  и других наиболее важных событий .

Учебно-методическое пособие  рассчитано на широкую
аудиторию специалистов ,изучающих английский язык  в связи с деятельностью  в
юридической сфере. Может быть полезно всем лицам ,изучающим английский язык в
группах и самостоятельно.

Legal professions

A lawyer is a person learned in the law. A lawyer, also known as an attorney, a counselor, a solicitor, a barrister or an advocate, is an individual licensed by the state to engage in the practice of law and advise clients on legal matters. Lawyers act as both advocates and advisors on behalf of their clients. The role of the lawyer varies significantly across legal jurisdictions, and therefore can be treated in only the most general terms. Lawyers’ roles vary greatly, depending upon their practice environment and field of specialization.

In most countries there is only one legal profession. This means that all the lawyers have roughly the same professional education leading to the same legal qualifications, and they are permitted to do all the legal work. In England the system is different. Here the profession is divided into two types of lawyers, called solicitors and barristers. Solicitors and barristers are both qualified lawyers, but they have different legal training; they take different examinations to qualify; and once they have qualified, they usually do different types of legal work. As for solicitors they deal with a range of legal work: preparing cases to be tried in the civil or criminal courts; giving legal advice in the field of business and drawing up contracts; making all the legal arrangements for the buying and selling of land or houses; assisting employees and employers; making wills.

The path to becoming a lawyer in the United States usually involves completing a four-year college program, demonstrating strong academic skills, taking the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), completing law school (usually a three-year program), and passing a state-administered bar examination. The rules for eligibility to take the bar and to qualify for bar admission are set by each state. However, to receive a license to practice law, one must be a graduate of a law school that meets certain standards, and one must achieve a passing score on the bar examination.

There are mainly “courtroom lawyers” who actually conduct cases in court. Unlike solicitors, they have rights of audience (rights to appear) in any court of the land, and so barristers are those lawyers who appear in the more difficult cases in the higher courts. The educational requirements to become a lawyer vary greatly from country to country. In some countries, law is taught by a faculty of law which is a department of a university’s general undergraduate college. Law students in those countries pursue a Bachelor (LLB) or a Master of Laws (LLM) degree.

22

In some countries it is common or even required for students to earn another bachelor’s degree at the same time. Besides it is often followed by a series of advanced examinations, apprenticeships, and additional coursework at special government institutes. In other countries, particularly the United States, law is primarily taught at law schools. Most law schools are part of universities but a few are independent institutions. Law schools in the United States (and some in Canada and elsewhere) award graduating students a J.D. (Jurist Doctor / Doctor of Jurisprudence) as the practitioner’s law degree. However, like other professional doctorates, the J.D. is not the exact equivalent of the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.), a university degree of the highest level, since it does not require the submission of a full dissertation based on original research.

The methods and quality of legal education vary widely. Some countries require extensive clinical training in the form of apprenticeships or special clinical courses. Many others have only lectures on highly abstract legal doctrines, which force young lawyers to figure out how to actually think and write like a lawyer at their first apprenticeship (or job).

In most common law countries lawyers have many options over the course of their careers. Besides private practice, they can always aspire to becoming a prosecutor, government counsel, corporate in-house counsel, judge, arbitrator, law professor, or politician. In most civil law countries, lawyers generally structure their legal education around their chosen specialty; the boundaries between different types of lawyers are carefully defined and hard to cross. After one earns a law degree, career mobility may be severely constrained.

School graduates receive the (степень доктора юриспруденции) as the first professional (ученую степень). Advanced law (ученые степени) may be desirable for those planning to specialize, (заниматься научно-исследовательской работой), or teach.

Exercise 14. Translate the text into English.

25

ВАнглии есть два типа юристов — солиситоры и барристеры. Барристер — это юрист, который ведет судебные дела, выступает в суде, готовит документы для суда и т.д. Солиситоры после 1990 года тоже получили право выступать в суде, если у них есть специальный сертификат.

ВАнглии в 2008 году было 112,2 тысяч солиситоров и около 16,5 тысяч барристеров.

С1997 по 2008 год количество юристов в Англии увеличилось более чем на 50%.

Для того, чтобы стать солиситором нужно иметь юридическое образование. Это либо бакалавр права в Англии (3 года) (LLB), либо бакалавр в какой-либо другой области плюс годичный интенсивный курс профильного образования, который называется (GDL — Graduate Diploma in Law).

Кроме юридического образования ннеобходимо получить контракт на прохождение практики в юридической фирме (training contract). В течение двух лет надо проработать в 4 разных департаментах по 6 месяцев в каждом. Получить образование в Англии относительно легко. Что действительно сложно, так это получение контракта на прохождение практики потому, что в хорошие фирмы конкуренция составляет около 20-40 человек на место.

DISCUSSION

Exercise 1. Let’s discuss the problems (work in small groups).

1.A television advertisement shows a lawyer in a bathing suit coming out of a lake. He says,

“If you’re in over your head because of bad debts, let us bail you out. We’re the best firm in the state.” Should there be any restrictions on ads like this? If so, what? Should there be other restrictions on ads? If so, what should they be?

2.A lawyer hears that many people have been injured as a result of accidents in a particular type of car. He runs a newspaper ad showing a car crash. The ad reads, “If this happens to you, I may be able to help you recover your losses.” Should the lawyer be able to do this?

3.Many people in a city have lost their jobs and could lose their homes because they cannot make their monthly mortgage payments. Jane, a lawyer, writes to all of them saying she is willing to represent them to prevent the loss of their homes. Should she be allowed to do this?

Exercise 2. Briefly scan the text and perform the exercise 3.

The Car Crash

On April 1, Al and his friend Marie were driving along Sixth Street, returning home from a party. Al had stopped at a red light at the corner of Sixth Street and Florida Avenue when a 2004 Buick hit his car from behind. Al’s 2006 Volvo was smashed in as far as the back seat. Al suffered a severe neck injury, four broken ribs, and many cuts and bruises. As a result, he spent three weeks in the hospital. Al’s passenger, Marie, was also severely injured. She suffered a fractured skull, facial and numerous other cuts, a broken right arm and hip, and internal bleeding. Marie, an accountant making $65,000 a year, spent 6 weeks in the hospital and returned to work after 12 weeks. She had to take 10 weeks of unpaid leave from work. Her insurance covered all but $5,000 of her medical bills. Fred, the driver of the Buick, suffered minor cuts on his face and arm and was released from the hospital after 24 hours. Fred was given a ticket for speeding and reckless driving.

26

Fred’s insurance company has offered Marie a $4,500 settlement. She is uncertain whether she should accept and decides to consult an attorney. After checking with a lawyer referral service, she is referred to a local attorney.

Exercise 3. Role-play the initial attorney-client interview between Marie and the attorney. Persons role-playing the attorney should attempt to ask all the questions an attorney should ask at this point. Persons role-playing the client should provide the attorney with all necessary information and ask all those questions that are relevant to Marie’s case and that relate to whether she should retain the attorney.

Exercise 4. The following situations present ethical dilemmas faced by attorneys. Examine each case, and then decide whether the attorney acted ethically or unethically. Explain your answers.

1.Marta, an attorney for the family of a man killed in an auto accident, visits a bar and runs into a juror in the case. She has a drink with the juror.

2.Nicholas, a criminal defense attorney, puts his client on the stand to testify to her innocence, even though Nicholas knows she is lying.

3.Gene, a corporate lawyer, is asked by a wealthy client to recommend her son for admission to the state bar. Gene says yes.

4.Rosa represents a man injured by a defective lawn mower. The manufacturer’s insurance company offers a $100,000 settlement. She accepts the settlement without consulting her client.

5.Nang, an attorney, has a trial next week before Judge DeSilva. Nang se

es the judge in a grocery store and asks her if the trial can be postponed one week.

Exercise 5. Several different words can be used to refer to a lawyer. Listen to three law students in the UK talking about the kind of work they would like to do when they have completed their law studies. Write the correct word for lawyer in the gaps.

UNIT 2. LEGAL SKILLS

WORD BUILDING. Suffix –able

An adjectival suffix; forms adjectives meaning:

able to be; fit to be.

movable: able to be moved

amendable, able to be amended

breakable: liable to be broken

blamable, fit to be blamed

salable, fit to be sold

relevant to or suitable to, in accordance with.

fashionable relevant to fashion

seasonable suitable to season

giving, or inclined to.

pleasurable giving pleasure

peaceable inclined to peace

subject to.

reportable subject to be reported

taxable subject to be taxed

due to be.

payable due to pay

A number of adjectives in -able come from verbs that do not have direct objects, but that rather are construed with prepositions. In these cases, the preposition does not appear with the adjective in — able; hence, reliable (“fit to being relied on”), laughable (“suited for laughing at”), remarkable (“fit to be remarked upon”),

Traditionally, verbs ending in unstressed -ate drop this suffix before adding -able; hence, communicable (“able to be communicated”), eradicable (“possible to eradicate”), and so on.

There are cases where a word with un- -able is much more common than one with just -able, such as unbreakable, unsinkable, and untouchable.

Exercise 1. Paraphrase the phrases, using adjectives with suffix-able and translate these words.

Model: 1. that can be prevented — preventable.

That can be drunk; that can be checked; that can be pronounced; that can be understood; that can be broken; that can be controlled; that can be washed, that can be questioned, that can be prevented, that can be arrested, that can be read.

заявлять, излагать,
judge — судья и судить, claim — требование, судебный иск
и  претендовать, заявлять,
force — сила и заставлять, rule — правило, норма и
управлять, постановлять.
Правильный
первый шаг к пониманию смысла английского высказывания — не поиск в словаре
русских соответствий английским словам, а определение грамматической роли
слова в предложении. К пониманию смысла английского высказывания можно прийти
лишь после того, как выявлена его грамматическая структура, при этом
необходимо руководствоваться формальными показателями слова и твердым
порядком слов в английском предложении.

TEXT 5. TOP
TEN
LEGAL
SKILLS

While legal
positions vary greatly in scope and responsibility, there are several core
legal skills that are required in most legal functions. If you are considering
a career in the law, it is wise to polish these top ten legal skills to excel
in today’s competitive legal market.

. Oral
Communicationis one of the most fundamental tools of the legal professional.
Legal professionals must:

·    Convey
information in a clear, concise, and logical manner.

·              Communicate
persuasively.

·              Advocate
a position or a cause.

·              Master
legal terminology.

·              Develop
keen listening skills.

2. Written
Communication. From writing simple correspondence to drafting complex legal
documents, writing is an integral function of nearly every legal position. Legal
professionals must:

·    Master
the stylistic and mechanical aspects of writing.

·              Master
the fundamentals of grammar.

·              Learn
how to write organized, concise and persuasive prose.

·              Draft
effective legal documents such as motions, briefs, memos, resolutions and

·              legal
agreements.

3. Client Service.
In the client-focused legal industry, serving the client honestly, capably and
responsibly is crucial to success.

. Analytical and
Logical Reasoning. Legal professionals must learn to review and assimilate large
volumes of complex information in an efficient and effective manner. Legal
analytical and logical reasoning skills include: reviewing complex written
documents, drawing inferences and making connections among legal authorities;
developing logical thinking, organization and problem-solving abilities;
structuring and evaluating arguments; using inductive and deductive reasoning
to draw inferences and reach conclusions.

. Legal Research.
Researching legal concepts, case law, judicial opinions, statutes, regulations
and other information is an important legal skill.

. Technology.
Technology is changing the legal landscape and is an integral part of every
legal function. To remain effective in their jobs, legal professionals must
master communications technology including e-mails, voice messaging systems,
videoconferencing and related technology.

. Knowledge of
Substantive Law and Legal Procedure. All legal professionals, even those at the
bottom of the legal career chain, must have basic knowledge of substantive law
and legal procedure.

. Time Management.
In a profession based on a business model (billable hours) that ties
productivity to financial gain, legal professionals are under constant pressure
to bill time and manage large workloads.

. Organization. In
order to manage large volumes of data and documents, legal professionals must
develop top-notch organizational skills.

. Teamwork. Legal
professionals do not work in a vacuum. Even solo practitioners must rely on
secretaries and support staff and team up with co-counsels, experts to deliver
legal services.

legislative process?

. What are the sources of bills? Who
can introduce the legislation?2. LAW-MAKING PROCEDURE IN THE USACongress of the
United States is the highest lawmaking body in the United States and one of the
oldest national legislatures in the world. The U.S. Congress consists of two
houses-the Senate and the House of Representatives. A member of the Senate is referred
to as a senator, and a member of the House of Representatives is called a
representative or congressman or congresswoman.general process for making a
bill into a law is described in the Constitution.first step in the legislative
process is the introduction of a bill to the Congress. Bills originate from
several different sources: from individual members of the Congress, from a
member of a constituent or a group of constituents, from one or more state
legislatures, or the President or his administration, but only members of the
Congress can introduce legislation.being introduced, a bill is referred to the
appropriate committee for review. There are 17 Senate committees, with 70
subcommittees, and 23 House committees, with 104 subcommittees. A bill is first
considered in a subcommittee, where it may be accepted, amended, or rejected.
If the members of the subcommittee agree to move a bill forward, it is reported
to the full committee, where the process is repeated again. If the full
committee votes to approve the bill, it is reported to the House or the
Senate.the bill comes up for consideration, the House has a very structured
debate process. Each member who wishes to speak only has a few minutes, and the
number and kind of amendments are usually limited. In the Senate, debate on
most bills is unlimited — Senators may speak to issues other than the bill
under consideration during their speeches, and any amendment can be introduced.
A bill must pass both houses of the Congress before it goes to the President
for consideration. Once debate has ended and any amendments to the bill have
been approved, the full membership will vote for or against the bill.bill is
then sent to the President. When receiving a bill from the Congress, the
President has several options. If the President agrees with the bill, he or she
may sign it into law. If the President disagrees with the bill, he may veto it
and send it back to the Congress. The Congress may override the veto with a
two-thirds vote of each chamber, at which point the bill becomes law and is
printed.

LEGISLATION

1. What is the legislative body in
the UK? What does it consist of?

. What are the steps in the
legislative process?

. What are the sources of bills? Who
can introduce the legislation?3. THE UNITED KINGDOM LEGISLATIONGreat Britain
laws are made in Parliament at Westminster. The British Parliament consists of
the monarch, the House of Lords, and the House of Commons. Their work is
similar: making laws (legislation), checking the work of the government
(scrutiny), and debating current issues. The House of Lords is composed of life
peers and hereditary peers. The House of Common is composed of Members of
Parliament (Mps).idea for a new law can come from a variety of sources: bills
may be introduced by any member of either House (a «Private Member’s
Bill»), a Minister of the Crown (a «Government Bill»), by the
general public («Public Bills»), by an individual or small group of
individuals (a «Private Bill»).reading is the first stage of a Bill’s
passage through the House of Commons — usually a formality, it takes place
without debate. The short title of the Bill is read out and then the Bill is
printed. The Bill is published as a House of Commons paper for the first
time.next stage is second reading, the first opportunity for MPs to debate the
general principles and themes of the Bill.second reading is completed the Bill
proceeds to committee stage. Committee stage is where detailed examination of
the Bill takes placel, clause by clause,
determining the intent and impact of the bill’s language. This is therefore
often considered the most important step in the parliamentary process for
researchers aiming to determine legislative intent. It is at this stage that
amendments are made. If the Bill has been amended the Bill is reprinted before
its next stage.committee stage is finished, the Bill returns to the floor of
the House of Commons for its report stage, where the amended Bill can be
debated and further amendments proposed. All MPs can suggest amendments to the
Bill or new clauses (parts) they think should be added.stage is normally
followed immediately by debate on the Bill’s third reading. Committee stage is
where detailed examination of the Bill takes place, clause by clause,
determining the intent and impact of the bill’s language. Amendments (proposals
for change) cannot be made to a Bill at third reading in the Commons.process in
the House of Lords is very similar to the process in the House of Commons. The
bill will have a pro forma first reading, then a second reading. After the
second reading the bill will normally be referred to a Committee of the Whole
House. The bill then passes through a consideration stage and a third reading.
In the House of Lords amendments may be made in the Committee of the Whole
House, the consideration stage, and the third reading (this is different from
the House of Commons where no amendments can be made in the third reading).the
Bill started in the Commons it goes to the House of Lords for its first
reading. If the Bill started in the Lords it
returns to the House of Lords for consideration of any amendments the Commons
has made. Both Houses must agree on the exact wording of the Bill. A Bill may
go back and forth between each House (‘Ping Pong’) until both Houses reach agreement.a
Bill has completed all its parliamentary stages in both Houses, it must have
Royal Assent before it can become an Act of Parliament (law). Royal Assent is
the Monarch’s agreement to make the Bill into an Act and is a formality. When
Royal Assent has been given to a Bill, the announcement is usually made in both
Houses by the Lord Speaker in the Lords and the Speaker in the Commons.

TEXT 5. THE
US CONSTITUTIONform of the US government is based on the Constitution of 1787
which was adopted after the War of Independence. The US Constitution consists
of 7 articles and 27 amendments. The first 10 amendments are called the Bill of
Rights and were adopted in 1791 under popular pressure.

The Bill of Rights is a series of
limitations on the power of the United States federal government, protecting
the natural rights and liberties, property including freedom of religion,
freedom of speech, a free press, free assembly, and free association, as well
as the right to keep and carry arms. In federal criminal cases, it requires
indictment by a grand jury for any capital crime, guarantees a speedy, public
trial with an impartial jury composed of members of the state in which the
crime occurred.key feature of the US Constitution is federalism — the division
of power between the national government and the states. Another major feature
of the Constitution is the principle of the separation of powers within the
national government. According to this principle the executive, legislative and
judicial branches exercise powers that are largely separate and distinct. There
is not a strict and complete separation of powers, the powers of the three
branches overlap. Each branch has its own responsibilities, but no branch has
more power than the other branches. There is the system of checks and balances,
that is each branch has certain duties to check the powers of the other
branches. This system was meant to protect against the extremes since it makes
compromise and consensus necessary.legislative branch is called the Congress
which consists of the Senate and the House of Representatives. It is the
responsibility of the Congress to propose and pass laws. In the system of
checks and balances, Congress can refuse to approve Presidential appointments
and can override presidential veto.executive branch consists of the President,
the Vice President, the Cabinet and the 13 Departments, and also of the
independent agencies. Its responsibility is to enforce laws. According to the
principle of checks and balances, the President has the power of veto to reject
the bill of the Congress. He also appoints all Supreme Court Justices.judicial
branch consists of the Supreme Court, 11 Circuit Courts of Appeals and 94
District Courts. This branch explains and interprets laws and makes decisions
in lawsuits. It has the power over the other two branches and according to the
principle of checks and balances can declare their actions and laws
unconstitutional in case they violate the principles of the Constitution.

TEXT 6. THE
BRITISH CONSTITUTIONBritish Constitution is unwritten unlike the constitution
in America or the proposed European Constitution, and as such, is referred to
as an uncodified constitution in the sense that there is no single document
that can be identified as Britain’s constitution. The British Constitution can
be found in a variety of documents. The main ones are: Statutes (the Magna
Carta of 1215 and the Act of Settlement of 1701), Acts of Parliament; customs
and traditions, political conventions, case law; constitutional matters decided
in a court of law.

Since the English Civil War, the
core principle of the British constitution has traditionally been the doctrine
of parliamentary sovereignty, according to which the statutes passed by
Parliament are the UK’s supreme and final source of law. It follows that
Parliament can change the constitution simply by passing new Acts of Parliamentto
to be followed by the Royal Assent. There is some
debate about whether this principle remains entirely valid today, in part due
to the UK’s European Union membership.

According to
the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty, Parliament may pass any legislation
that it wishes. There are many Acts of Parliament which themselves have
constitutional significance. For example, Parliament has the power to determine
the length of its own term. However, the Sovereign retains the power to
dissolve parliament at any time on the advice of the Prime Minister. Parliament
also has the power to change the structure of its constituent houses and the
relation between them.consists of the Sovereign, the House of Commons and the
House of Lords. All the legislation must receive the approval of the Sovereign
(Royal Assent). Following the accession of the UK to European Economic
Community (now the European Union) in 1972, the UK became bound by European law
and more importantly, the principle of the supremacy of European Union
law.House of Commons alone possesses the power to pass a motion of no
confidence in the Government, which requires the Government either to resign or
seek fresh elections. Such a motion does not require passage by the Lords, or
Royal Assent. Parliament traditionally also has the power to remove individual
members of the government by impeachment. By the Constitutional Reform Act 2005
it has the power to remove individual judges from office for
misconduct.executive power in the United Kingdom is exercised by the Sovereign
through Her Majesty’s Government. The monarch appoints a Prime Minister as the
head of Her Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom. The Prime Minister then
selects the other Ministers which make up the Government. As in some other
parliamentary systems of government, the executive is answerable to
Parliament.Courts of the United Kingdom are separated into three separate
jurisidictions serving England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, as the
United Kingdom does not have a single unified judicial system.Constitutional
Reform Act 2005 created a new Supreme Court of the United Kingdom to take over
the judicial functions of the House of Lords and devolution cases from the
Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The Supreme Court began work in 2009,
and serves as the highest court of appeal in England and Wales and in Northern
Ireland, and for civil cases in Scotland. The High Court of Justiciary will
remain the court of last resort in Scotland for criminal cases.

переведите его письменно.

Types of ConstitutionsConstitution
is a system which establishes the fundamental rules and principles which a
state will use to govern and regulate.are several types of constitutions:
written/unwritten constitution, rigid/flexible constitution, federal/unitary
constitution.term written constitution is used to describe a constitution that
is entirely written, that is codified in one single document. Written
constitutions normally consist of a ceremonial preamble, which sets forth the
goals of the state and the motivation for the constitution, and several
articles containing the substantive provisions.term unwritten constitution is
used to describe a based on series of laws over time. Unwritten constitutions
could contain written sources: e.g. constitutional statutes enacted by the
Parliament; and also unwritten sources: constitutional conventions, customs and
traditions.historians use the term “rigid” to describe the Constitution because
the provisions are in a written document that cannot be legally changed with
the same ease and in the same manner as ordinary laws. On the other hand, the
Constitution is called “flexible” because it is an unwritten document that can
be changed by an act of Parliament or through a process of amendment.federal
constitution establishes the division of authority between the Federal
Government and the component units of the
government. In a federal constitution,
sovereignty is invested in the central government. It allows a limited amount
of government among units.unitary constitution relates to the parliament. It
follows parliamentary system of power. The unitary constitution establishes a
unitary system of government where a central government does exist. Although
units are associated with that government, sovereignty is controlled by the
central government.

КРАТКИЙ ГРАММАТИЧЕСКИЙ СПРАВОЧНИК

1. ТВЕРДЫЙ ПОРЯДОК СЛОВ

Для правильного перевода очень
важно выяснить функцию английского слова и каким членом предложения оно
является. Этому в значительной мере помогает так называемый твердый порядок
слов английского предложения.

В отличие от русского языка в
английском языке подлежащее, сказуемое, дополнение обычно стоят в строгой
последовательности одно за другим, как бы являются «костяком» предложения ПСД
(Подлежащее, Сказуемое, Дополнение). Обстоятельства, как правило, стоят до или
после «костяка». Определение не имеет постоянного места в предложении и может
находиться рядом с любым членом предложения, который требует определения.

Исходя из вышеизложенного,
можем себе представить следующую схему расположения членов предложения в
английском языке:

2. СТЕПЕНИ СРАВНЕНИЯ ПРИЛАГАТЕЛЬНЫХ И НАРЕЧИЙ
