3. Read text and complete the exercise
The word nano comes from the ancient Greek word for
‘dwarf’ and nanotechnology is the technology used to
control this tiny nano-world and make it useful to us.
In nanotechnology centimetres and even millimetres are too
small for measuring so scientists use a unit called a
nanometre which is one billionth (1,000,000,000) of a metre!
Because a nanometre is so small we cannot see it with our
eyes or even through a traditional microscope.
A human hair is about 50,000 nanometres wide which is
about the smallest thing we can see with our eyes.
Fill in the missing word:
Example:
1. The word nano comes from the ancient
Greek word for D W A R F.
2. A _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ is one billionth of a metre.
3. _ _ _ _ _ are the tiny building blocks of
everything around us.
4. Materials behave _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _at a very small scale.
5. In nanotechnology _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _, physicist, chemists and biologists all work
together to help create new materials and devices.
4. Translate from English into Russian.
