CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY

 

1. Cambridge is situated at a distance of 70 miles from London; the

greater part of the town lies on the left bank of the river Cam crossed by

several bridges. 

2. Cambridge is one of the loveliest towns of England; it is not a

modern industrial city and looks much more like a country town.

3. The dominating factor in Cambridge is its world-known Univer-

sity, a center of education and learning, closely connected with the life and

thought of Great Britain. Newton, Byron, Darwin, Rutherford and many

other scientists and writers were educated at Cambridge. In Cambridge

everything centers on the University and colleges, the eldest of which was

founded in 1284. They are 27 in number.  There is a close connection be-

tween the University and colleges, though they are quite separate in theory

and practice.

4. It is a place where students live no matter what profession they

are trained for: so that students studying literature and students trained for

physics may belong to one and the same college. However the fact is that

you are to be a member of a college in order to be a member of the Uni-

versity. Every college is headed by a dean. Discipline is looked after by

Proctors and numerous minor officials. A college is a group of buildings

forming a square with a green lawn in the center.

5. The University existed before the colleges. It has the power to

grant degrees, it defines courses of study, and organizes most of the for-

mal teaching. The teaching is provided by professors, readers and lectur-

ers. The University trains about 7,000 students in different specialties.

(Перевести на русский  язык)

 

 

CORPORATIONS

 

1. A business corporation is an institution established for the purpose

of making profit. It is operated by individuals. Their shares of ownership

are represented by stock certificates. A person who owns a stock certificate

is called a stock-holder. 

2. There are several advantages of the corporate form of ownership.

The first is the ability to attract financial resources. The next advantage is

the corporation attracts a large amount of capital it can invest it in plants,

equipment and research. And the third advantage is that a corporation can

offer higher salaries and thus attract talented managers and specialists. 

3. The privately owned business corporation is one type of corpora-

tion. There are some other types too. Educational, religious, charitable in-

stitutions can also incorporate. Usually such corporation does not issue

stock and is nonprrofitable. If there is a profit it is reinvested in the institu-

tion rather than distributed to private stockholders. 

4. In some western countries, cities, states, federal government and

special agencies can establish governmental corporations. A few examples

of these governmental corporations are state universities, state hospitals

and city owned utilities. Governmental corporations are nonprofitable as a

rule and they do not issue stock certificate.

5. The international corporation or global company has its origin.

th

Usually it is the outgrowth of the great trading companies of the 17  and

th

18  centuries. In 1811 a New York statute said corporations could be cre-

ated by the filing of documents. After that it became a matter of bureau-

cratic operations to become a corporation. By 1850 it was a very common

thing in the United States and was under general statute in European coun-

tries as well. Since that time the corporate movement began. As the jet

plane, satellite communications and computers began, it became possible

for a company to control business in all the world.

6. The growth of international corporates operations is faster than the

economic growth of the industrialized nations. There are some projects

which predict that within a generation almost a half of the free worlds pro-

duction will be internationalized.

7. This trend for internationalism presupposes some benefits such as

new jobs, higher living standards and the closing of the gaps between peo-

ple – economic, educational and technological. At the same time serious

questions can be asked. Is it the most efficient way to use world re-

searches? Can the international corporation be the best force for a better

world? Is it politically stronger than government? Can it take care of the

self interest and competitiveness on behalf of the greatest good? And in

what way can the global company work toward easing the worlds crises –

monetary, political, energy and food?
