ИгорьСикорский. Переведите текст на русский язык.
Sikorsky Igor Ivanovich was a well-known aircraft engineer and manufacturer. He was born in 1889 in Kiev, in the Ukraine, and got his education at the naval college in St. Petersburg, and later in Kiev and Paris. He was the first to make experiments in helicopter design. In 1913 he designed, built, and flew the first successful aeroplane. Later he built military aircrafts for Russia and France.
In 1919 Sikorsky moved to the United States and later helped to organize an aircraft company that produced a series of multiengine flying boats for commercial service. Sikorsky became an American citizen in 1928. In the late 1930s he returned to developing helicopters and produced the first successful helicopter in the west. Helicopters designed by Sikorsky were used mostly by the US Army Air Forces during World War II. He died in 1972 at the age of 83.

2. Translate into Russian. Переведите на русский язык : The BERMUDA TRIANGLE
There are many explanations (объяснений) both fantastic and scientific. Here are some fantastic explanations:1) the UFOs have their base within the triangle. They destroy ships and planes.
2) the lost country of Atlantis is under the sea within the Bermuda triangle. People of Atlantis live under the sea. They take our ships and planes, and, sometimes, people to their country.
3) at the bottom of the sea there are strange and unknown animals. They attack and destroy ships, planes, and people within triangle.
And here are some scientific explanations.
1)The Bermuda Triangle area as well as some other areas on the Earth has very changeable weather. It means that in these areas seamen can get into a typhoon or a giant whirlwind (вихрь) at any moment. It was discovered with the help of an earth satellite. But scientists can not explain the origin of such whirlwinds, and why, how and when these whirlwinds stop their existence.
2) But how can we explain cases when the ships remain untouched and the people disappear die of terror or go mad? Some scientific interpretation is called “the voice of the sea”. It sounds like this: very powerful infra-sound vibrations can be formed on the surface of water, and they are very dangerous: they may provoke headaches, feeling of terror, brain disorder, and finally death.
