6. Read the text and translate it: "Transport: the activity or process of moving things or people from one place to another" (p:14) Early humans dreamed of going faster and further than they could on foot. They probably first achieved this in northern countries before 1,000 BC (Before Christ) using skis. The wheel was invented around 3,500 BC but carts were very slow without roads. So for many centuries the fastest and most popular means of transport was the horse, which can run at about fifty-five kilometres an hour. This record for speed was unbroken until the end of the eighteenth century when the hot-air balloon and the railway both began to develop. The hot-air balloon made its first free flight in 1783. Two Frenchmen, the Montgolfier brothers, were working as papermakers when they had the idea for the balloon. A fire heated the air, making the balloon rise. During the first flight, the two passengers were admiring the view when they suddenly saw smoke! The balloon was burning but, luckily, they managed to put the fire out and land safely. The railway developed gradually from carts on tracks. The first vehicle with an engine to run on tracks was developed in 1803 by Englishman, Richard Trevithick. In 1804, he took the first passengers, although they didn't have to buy a ticket. Unfortunately, they were travelling in the train when it began to fall off the tracks and Trevithick realized that the tracks were not strong enough to take the weight of the train. The passengers escaped unharmed, but it was another example of how dangerous the development of transport can be. Perhaps unexpectedly, the bicycle didn't appear until 30 around 1840 when a Scotsman, Kirkpatrick McMillan, created the first one to have pedals. People rode bicycles without pedals before then, but they were slow and not very popular. It took around 140 years for McMillan's design to develop into modern mountain bikes. The twentieth century saw the development of many other means of transport, including the hydrofoil and the hovercraft. The petrol-driven car (invented in 1885 in Germany) completely changed the way people thought about transport, and so did the aeroplane. People have always dreamed of flying. One day, in 1903, that dream became a reality. Two American brothers, Wilbur and Orville Wright, managed to make a short flight in their aircraft, the flyer. From there, a huge industry grew that allowed, and still allows, people to visit the whole world, easily and cheaply. The challenge for the twenty-first century is transport in space. Since the first Moon landing in 1969, technology has developed to give us the space shuttle (1981) and the space tourist (2002). The future of transport will probably be as exciting as its past.

В романе И. Ильфа и Е. Петрова «Золотой телёнок» есть такие строки: «В одиннадцатом часу вечера молочные братья, кренясь под тяжестью двух больших гирь, шли по направлению к конторе по заготовке рогов и копыт. Паниковский нёс свою долю обеими руками, выпятив живот и радостно пыхтя.
… Здоровяк Балаганов держал гирю на плече. Иногда Паниковский никак не мог повернуть за угол, потому что гиря… продолжала тащить его вперёд».

•Какое явления явилось причиной этому?
