INTRODUCTION



                         “English for geologists” is designed to help intermediate and upper-intermediate
                  learners of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) improve their professional vocabulary
                  dealing  with  geological  sphere.  It  is  for  the  people  before  they  start  their  career  in
                  geology as well as for those already working and need ESP in their job or want to make
                  a career in the field.
                         The book consists of 16 units introducing thematic texts for reading, translating
                  and discussing, and  a  series of  exercises  based  on the  vocabulary used  in each unit.
                  Some of the exercises are designed for individual reading, some – for training grammar
                  skills on the basis of professional vocabulary.
                         At  the  back  of  the  book  there  is  an  Extra  Practice  section  providing  various
                  schemes, photos and diagrams to train practical skills in speaking English in geological
                  sphere and discussing various professional situations in geology. The author hopes the
                  textbook  will  help  broaden  professional  outlook  and  enlarge  professional  English
                  vocabulary in geologic sphere.
