PRESENTACIN
El Colegio de Estudios Cientficos y Tecnolgicos del Estado de San Luis Potos, la

Academia de Ingls y su colegiado de profesores quienes comprometidos con la calidad
educativa, han implementado acciones que apoyan el desarrollo acadmico de sus
estudiantes al elaborar la Gua V de aprendizaje de Ingls, en conformidad con el Programa
Vigente y los lineamientos establecidos por la Reforma Integral de la Educacin Media
Superior (RIEMS) y el Marco Curricular Comn (MCC).
Por ello, las nuevas versiones de los programas destacan los aprendizajes que permitan a
los jvenes articular conceptos, procedimientos y actitudes que favorezcan el desarrollo de
sus capacidades, tanto para continuar en la educacin superior y transitarla con xito, como
para incorporarse al trabajo con una formacin que les permita ejercer plenamente su
ciudadana, tomar decisiones de manera responsable y mejorar su calificacin profesional
Actualmente el idioma ingls es el que se prefiere en la ciencia en general, y ms del 80%
de la informacin en Internet la encontramos en ingls. El aprendizaje de este idioma debe
contribuir al desarrollo intelectual del alumno, esto es, al conocer una lengua extranjera se le
proporciona al individuo ventajas y herramientas para un eficiente desenvolvimiento personal,
profesional y acadmico. Se espera que gradualmente se vaya despertando en el alumno el
inters por aprender el idioma, al desarrollar diversas habilidades en cada asignatura, y
mediante este proceso se pueda llegar al objetivo de que el estudiante comprenda y se
comunique en un ingls bsico (Programa de Estudios de Ingls, Bachillerato Tecnolgico RIEMS, Pgs.
1,4 Mxico, COSDAC, 2009)
Pgina
Pgina de5 de 103
Para lograr lo anterior, esta gua se conforma de tres unidades, descritas a continuacin:

CHANGING ROLES: STAY AT HOME DADS
British mechanic Neil Walkingshaw was looking for a way to care for his newborn child when
he approached his boss with a proposal in early 2000. Reluctant to hire a babysitter once his
wifes maternity leave ended and she returned to work, Walkingshaw asked if he could switch
to part-time hours in order to spend half of each day at home looking after his son. His
employer refused, saying the paperwork would be too messy and that it would be difficult to
get anyone to share Walkingshaws job. Knowing that the company he worked for had
granted similar requests to female employees, Walkingshaw sued on the grounds of sex
discrimination. On November 20, 2001, an industrial tribunal ruled that Walkingshaw had
been discriminated against and awarded him 3600 pounds. The ruling is believed to be the
first of its kind, and demonstrates just how much views on parental roles have changed over
the years.
Studies have also found that the presence of the father in the home can contribute to lower
juvenile crime rates, a decrease in child poverty, and lower rates of teenage pregnancy.
Differences in parenting styles between men and women are also believed to contribute to
childrens ability to understand and communicate emotions in different ways. The research
supports claims by some groups that the absence of a father in the family is the single biggest
social problem in modern society.
In recent years, organizations like the U.S. based National Fatherhood Initiative have begun
to argue that the presence of the father is vital to a childs development. These organizations
aim to encourage fathers to take a more active role in their childrens lives. The movement
also calls for the creation of a new image of fatherhood, one that goes beyond the traditional
view of the father solely as provider, and also includes the equally crucial roles of nurtures,
moral example, disciplinarian and teacher.

WHAT IS MECHATRONICS?
It is a Japanese word which combines the words: mechanics and electronics. The
mechatronics consists of the following four areas:
Information processing area:

Taking as an example an automatic machine, the area of information relates to a control unit.
Typical control units are personal computers, microcomputers and programmable controllers
and so on. Also the content related to the elements and logic circuits, are used including the
inside of a servo amplifier or D / A converter
Area sensor (s):

The existence of an object, the latest speed detection and visual sensors using cameras are
widely used in several areas. Taking a CNC machine tool as an example, can be cited, a
proximity switch, magnetic scale rotary machine (rotary)
Area of actuators:
When an object moves, actuator must be determined to consider the speed, accuracy and
stability required at the time. Therefore, requires knowledge of the correct actuator. As a
typical actuator various types of electric motors, are cited for example, DC servo motor, servo
AC motor and so on. In the actual plant or machinery, air cylinders and / or water are widely
used
Machine area:
In a production plant, the machine itself is a machine tool or general purpose machine tools.
Since the machine itself is regarded in other words as the mechanism of the interface or
mechanical interface.
Exercise 1:

Informative texts
They are those texts which reveal the most important events that occur in the different fields
of science and technology, arts, sports, etc.
You can find this type of texts in newspapers and magazines; informative texts allow us to
know important events what happened? who? how? when? where? and why?
Descriptive texts
They are those in which descriptions are used to make the message be understood better.
There are three types of description:
1. Physics: It occurs by means of an illustration with the names of each of the parts that
comprise the described object.
2. Process: Provides the sequence or the phase in which a process or phenomenon occurs,
in some occasions is represented by a diagram and using arrow keys.
3. Function: In this type of description is detailed the function or activity carried out by
different parts of the subject matter; usually includes a process or physical description.

DIGESTIVE SYSTEM 3
4
The digestive tract is a long tube, with important glands
5
embedded, that transform the complex food molecules into
simple and easily usable substances by the body.
These simple nutritional compounds are absorbed by the

intestinal villi, which cover the small intestine. Thus, they pass 6

From the mouth to the anus, the digestive tract measuring 16 10
about eleven meters long. In the mouth it begins proper 17

digestion. The teeth grind food and secretions from the 19 11
salivary glands moisten them and start their chemical 20

decomposition. Then, the cud crosses the pharynx, continues
through the esophagus and comes to the stomach, a muscle-

liter bag and a half capacity, whose secret powerful gastric mucosa, in the stomach; the food
is stirred into a porridge called chyme.
At the exit of the stomach, the digestive tract extends with the small intestine, about seven
meters long, but retreated on him. In its first portion or duodenum it receives intestinal glands
secretions, bile and pancreatic juices. All these secretions contain a large amount of enzymes
that degrade foods and it transforms them into simple soluble substances.
The digestive tract continues along the large intestine, something more than meter and half in
length. Its final portion is the rectum, which ends in the year where evacuate to the outside of
the indigestible remains of food.
Anatomical description
The digestive tube is formed by: mouth, esophagus, and stomach, small intestine that
consists of duodenum, jejunum and ileum. The large intestine is composed of: cecum and

THE PROCESS OF MAKING BREAD

1. All the ingredients are weighed and placed in a vertical mixing. Starch and water are added
to produce the mass. This mass is then fermented for a few hours to allow the activation of
starch and the swelling of the mass. This period of fermentation is known as "sleep or rest
time".
2. The mass is returned to the mixer, where the rest of flour and water are added, along with
the fat, margarine, sugar, milk, salt, and/or eggs. The ingredients should be mixed and
scattered evenly in the dough to form gluten (elastic protein product, which is when the starch
has been separated from the mass per wash).
3. Then the mass is divided and rounded, and it is immediately tested. Mass parts pass
through the styler, containing a series of rollers which will remove any excess gas and air to
ground. The dough pieces are formed in a cylindrical mold or bar (bread) and placed in
containers.
Pgina
Pgina de30 de
103
4 Containers are placed in a test temperature and humidity controlled cabin, and are dropped
off by an hour. The containers are brought to an oven so that the dough is baked. This is the
most important part of the production process.
The oven temperature will transform the mass in a light, pleasant and appetizing product.
5. When the bread is removed from the oven, it should be cooled before that they are cut and
packaged.
6. Then, the loaves of bread will be packaged in automatically and taken to a warehouse
where he is kept in shelves to immediately respond to the demands of the market.
Exercise 1:

HISTORY OF THE OLYMPICS

Creating the Modern Olympic Games
According to legend, the ancient Olympic Games were founded by Heracles (the Roman
Hercules), a son of Zeus. Yet the first Olympic Games for which we still have written records
were held in 776 BCE (though it is generally believed that the Games had been going on for
many years already). At this Olympic Games, a naked runner, Coroebus (a cook from Elis),
won the sole event at the Olympics, the stage - a run of approximately 192 meters (210
yards). This made Coroebus the very first Olympic champion in history.
The ancient Olympic Games grew and continued to be played every four years for nearly
1200 years. In 393 CE, the Roman emperor Theodosius I, a Christian, abolished the Games
because of their pagan influences.
Approximately 1500 years later, a young Frenchmen named Pierre de Coubertin began their
revival. Coubertin is now known as le Rnovateur. Coubertin was a French aristocrat born on
January 1, 1863. He was only seven years old when France was overrun by the Germans
during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. Some believe that Coubertin attributed the defeat of
France not to its military skills but rather to the French soldiers' lack of vigor.* After examining
the education of the German, British, and American children, Coubertin decided that it was
exercise, more specifically sports, that made a well-rounded and vigorous person.
Coubertin's attempt to get France interested in sports was not met with enthusiasm. Still,
Coubertin persisted. In 1890, he organized and founded a sports organization, Union des
Socits Francaises de Sports Athltiques (USFSA). Two years later, Coubertin first pitched
Pgina
Pgina de33 de
103
his idea to revive the Olympic Games. At a meeting of the Union des Sports Athltiques in
Paris on November 25, 1892, Coubertin stated.
Let us export our oarsmen, our runners, our fencers into other lands. That is the true Free
Trade of the future; and the day it is introduced into Europe the cause of Peace will have
received a new and strong ally. It inspires me to touch upon another step I now propose and
in it I shall ask that the help you have given me hitherto you will extend again, so that together
we may attempt to realize [sic], upon a basis suitable to the conditions of our modern life, the
splendid and beneficent task of reviving the Olympic Games.**
His speech did not inspire action. Though Coubertin was not the first to propose the revival of
the Olympic Games, he was certainly the most well-connected and persistent of those to do
so. Two years later, Coubertin organized a meeting with 79 delegates who represented nine
countries. He gathered these delegates in an auditorium that was decorated by neoclassical
murals and similar additional points of ambiance. At this meeting, Coubertin eloquently spoke
of the revival of the Olympic Games. This time, Coubertin aroused interest.
The delegates at the conference voted unanimously for the Olympic Games. The delegates
also decided to have Coubertin construct an international committee to organize the Games.
This committee became the International Olympic Committee (IOC; Comit Internationale
Olympique) and Demetrious Vikelas from Greece was selected to be its first president.
Athens was chosen as the location for the revival of the Olympic Games and the planning
was begun.

MY CHILDHOOD
Hello, my name is Ruben and I am going to share you about my childhood.
When I was a baby I used to sleep all the time and I used to drink my milk each three hours.
My mother didnt use to work; she used to be at home with me, and my brothers. She used to
clean the house in the morning and after that, she prepared the food for us. My brothers and I
used to hate the vegetables and didnt use to eat them. My mother didnt use to drink much
coffee. But now she has become addicted to it.
My father used to work in a bank and he didnt use to do exercise because he didnt use to
have enough time. He used to wear a shirt and a tie, and he used to help me with my
homework. He used to be fat but now he is thin.
My brothers Luis and Carlos used to wake up at seven oclock because their classes started
at eight oclock, and when they arrived to the house, they did the homework and after used to
play videogames after that, we used to watch cartoons on TV.
We used to live in an apartment, and the sofa used to be in the living room, but now it's in my
bedroom, and I used to share my bedroom with my brother, but now I have my own room.
In Christmas we didnt use to be at home, we used to visit my grandmother who lives in

Tampico, and I enjoyed it a lot. My brothers and I used to swim in the sea and my mother
used to sunbathe and my father used to play volleyball in the beach.
And we used to travel every summer to Mexico City and we visited museums, and
amusement parks.
I enjoyed a lot my childhood, what did you use to do in your childhood? Write me about it.

THE NUTRITION
Nutrition is the study of the food eaten, and the use of this food in the body. It is relatively new
science, which developed from physiologist and biochemistry. Indeed, it is so new and so little
accepted than even today many doctors do not recognized its importance in preventing and
combating disease. The latter is especially true: while many doctors understand the
importance of an appropriate diet in preventing illness, relatively few of them believe that
large quantities of certain nutrients can be major factors in curing certain problems.
There are six main classes of nutrients: water, proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and
minerals. All are essential to the body in different ways, though some may be dangerous if
Pgina
Pgina de65 de
103
they are taken in excess. Water is the most important, and 70% of the body consists of water.
All cells contain water, and water is involved in almost every bodily process. A person will die
sooner without water that without food.
Probably the second most important nutrients are proteins, especially how these can
compensate for shortages of carbohydrates or fats in the body when necessary. There are
many different types of protein and they perform several functions: they provide a source of
energy, although not as immediate one as carbohydrates, and they are particularly important
when the body is growing, recovering from damage, or suffering stress.
Carbohydrates are important as the primary source of energy, especially in poorer countries.
In rich countries, about 40% of the diet consists of carbohydrates, but in some poor countries
this proportion is as high as 90%. The main reason is that carbohydrates are relatively cheap
and readily available (in bread, potatoes, sugar, rice, etc.) While proteins (especially from
meat and dairy products) are much more expensive and difficult to produce. In fact, certain
plants, such as peas and beans, are rich sources of protein. Today, not only vegetarians, but
also many economists and politicians suggest that we should take our proteins from plants
and animals.
Fats should provide about 20% of the bodys energy. However, excessive amounts of fats are
consumed by many people, average diets in some countries consisting of as much as 40%
fats. As a result, it is sometimes believed that fats are bad for you. This is untrue: an excess
of fats is bad for you. It should be noted that people who lived sedentary lives, working in
such places as offices or universities, need less fat than people who do heavy physical work.
Minerals are presents in the body in very small amounts, but they perform vital functions.
They have to basic roles: building and regulation. They are essential for building teeth and
bones especially, but they are also needed for muscle and nerves. In addition, they regulate
the balance of water in the body and the PH level of the stomach. Though the body contains
six major minerals and 10 minor ones, altogether they account for only about 4% of the body.
The final groups of nutrients, vitamins, do not provide energy, but they are used by the body
to help other processes. For example, the body needs phosphorous and calcium to make
bones but it cannot make bone unless vitamin D is present. Vitamins are divided into groups:
fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins

Scientific texts
Scientific texts (papers): they are those occurring in the context of the scientific community,
with intent to display or demonstrate the progress made by research. Genres are typical of
this type of thesis, Bachelor Memory, Article scientist or scientific monograph. They are also
scientific texts, although oral transmission; the Conference, Paper or Communication.
It is a text with clear and precise language. It highlights the facts about the views.
Aims at universality through its specific terminology, which allows precise and accurate
translations into other languages with no room for misinterpretation.
The scientific papers present statements that may be subject to verifiability, (it means that
they can be checked). Typically they are produced within the framework of a scientific
community to communicate and demonstrate the progress made in research
(http://definicion.de/texto-cientifico/ (August 3, 2012).

WHATS IN IT FOR ME?
By Murray Young.
Plants have been used for thousands of years to treat, and sometimes to cure, minor and
major illnesses. The rise of rational medicine led to a brie decline in herbal remedies. In the
early part of this century; but recently, they have been rediscovered. Research laboratories
have been set up to investigate the remedial properties of tree bark, flower petals and fungus.
The results have been spectacular.
Substances which have been extracted from plants are now from the basis of some of the
most important pain-killing and even life-saving drugs.
Among the most popular pain-killers, aspirin and codeine both come from flowers- the
meadowsweet and the poppy. People have used Cocaine as a local anesthetic for much
longer that it has been taken by drug addicts, comes from the coca plant. Penicillin, the
universal antibiotic, is a fungus which was discovered by accident when it grew naturally in a
Petri dish in Alexander Flemings laboratory and killed the bacteria that were in the dish.
Quinine, which has prevented and treated malaria for many years, is distilled from the bark of
the yellow chinchona tree.
Whether you suffer from migraine or high blood pressure, you should be grateful to nature or
providing a cure (ergonovine from ergot and reserpine from Indian snakeroot, respectively).
The drug companies are certainly grateful. For instance, vinblastine, which occurs naturally in
the rosy periwinkle of Madagascar, cures most people of two different types of cancer and in
the income from the manufacture and sale of the substance exceeds $180 million per year.

CAVES
The majority of the worlds most spectacular caves, including the Cacahuamilpa Caves, are
located in areas of limestone rock. This is because limestone is a soft kind of rock that is
easily eroded by water. Some caves are formed when rainwater is made more acidic as it
passes through dead plants in the soil. The rock is dissolved by the acidic water and solution
caves are formed. Other caves, like Cacahuamilpa Caves, are made by underground rivers.
Caves like these are called erosional Caves.
When an empty space is created in the limestone, stalactites and stalagmites start to form.
Stalactites hang from the roof of the Cave and stalagmites grow up from the floor. They are
made by the constant dripping of water that contains calcium carbonate. The calcium
carbonate is deposited in tiny quantities over hundreds of years. Stalactite and stalagmites
only grow about 0.1 mm a year. The longest stalactite in the world is found in Minas Gerais,
in Brazil, and is more than 20 meters long. How long did it take to form?
Exercise 1:
After you read the text to a partner using skimming, use scanning to answer the

ITS A WONDERFUL LIFE (1976)

Exercise 1:
Read the text, following the teachers instructions.
What would have happened if you had never been born? Peter Stalleto learns the answer in
Frank Capras great movie classic, Its a wonderful life.
When the movie opens, Peter is standing on bridge thinking about suicide. Throughout his
life, he has sacrificed his dreams in order to help other people. He could have gone to college
if the family business hadnt needed him. He would have traveled around the world instead of
remaining in his hometown of Bedford Falls. Now faced a failed business and a possible jail
sentence, Peter decides to end his life by jumping into the river. Enter Gabriel, an angel sent
to help him. Gabriel jumps into the water first; certain that, as always, Peter put aside his own
problems in order to rescue someone else.
Safely back on land. Peter wishes he had never been born. I suppose it would have been
better if I had never been born at all. He tells Gabriel. You got your wish: you never been
born responds his guardian angel.
Gabriel then teaches Peter a hard lesson. In a series of painful episodes, he shows him what
life would have been like in Bedford Falls without Peter Stalleto. Peter goes back to the site of
his mothers home. He finds, instead, an old, depressing boardinghouse. If Peter had not
supported his mother, she would have become a miserable, overworked boardinghouse
owner. Peters own home is a ruin, and his wife Meredith, is living a sad and lonely life. Each
scene is more disturbing than the last, until finally we end in a graveyard. We see the grave
of Peters little brother, Joe. If Peter hadnt been alive, he couldnt have saved Joes life. Joe
would have never grown up to be a war hero, saving the lives of hundreds of soldiers. Joe
wasnt there to save them because you werent there to save Joe, explains Gabriel. You see
Peter, you really had a wonderful life.
The ending of the movie delivers a heartwarming holiday message. Its a Wonderful Life
shows us the importance of each persons life and how each of our lives touch those of
others. We see through Peters eyes how the lives of those around him would have been
different if he hadnt known them.
This movie is highly recommended for the whole family.

TITLE:
Images of robotic equipment being used in operating rooms were once seen only in
science-fiction movies. Today, the use of robotic equipment for certain types of surgery
is no longer make-believe its real!
Traditional surgical procedure require surgeons to make large incisions in patients

body in order to gain access to the internal organs(1) It was once common for heart
surgeons, who perform highly specialized and complex procedures(2), to make long
incisions in a patients chest and then split the breastbone to reach the heart. The
patient then had to recover from the trauma of the surgical treatment, the split bone,
and the large wound created by the incision. Patients who undergo surgery requiring
Pgina

this kind of invasive procedure are often prone (3) to infection (4), as bacteria can
infect the cut in the skin. In addition, there is often a lengthy recovery period.
A surgical technique known as Keyhole surgery has become more common in recent
years. This technique eliminates the need for surgeons to make large incisions.
Instead, a couple of small incisions, each measuring about one centimeter, are made
around the area to be operated on. Long instruments, which look a bit like chopsticks,
are inserted through the tiny incision and into the patients body. At the end of this
instruments are small tools that resemble standard surgical tools. A tiny camera, called
endoscope, is also inserted into the body through one of the incisions. The camera
relays an image of what is happening inside the patients body to a large computer
monitor, so doctors are able to see what is going on, and where to place the tools. The
awkward part of keyhole surgery is that it is counterintuitive; if a surgeon wants to
move the tool to the left, he or she must push it to the right, and vice versa.
Other advancements in technology are also being used today in the OR (5). A new
machine called the da Vinci Surgical System has been tested in hospitals in the U.S.
This robotic apparatus (6) requires that surgeons make three small incisions in the
body. Two of the slits are for instruments; the third is for the endoscope. Unlike keyhole
surgery, the da Vinci robots moving parts are designed to mimic the natural hand
and wrist movements of a surgeon, thus providing better control and sensitivity. Sitting
at a console a few feet from a patient, the surgeon can perform an operation by holding
and moving highly sensitive pads that enable him or her to control the instruments. The
area of the body on which the surgeon is working is magnified (7) on a screen, which is
attached to the console. This gives surgeons a realistic three-dimensional view of the
areasimilar to what they would see during a traditional surgical procedure.
Although the da Vinci Surgical System is undergoing trials from some procedures, it
has been hailed as revolutionary by many surgeons. Patients with serious illnesses
must still undergo major surgery, but the smaller incisions and less invasive (8)
procedures typically mean that there in less physical trauma to the body, so a shorter
recovery time is needed. In some cases, the patients stay in the hospital has been cut
in half when the da Vinci Surgical System was used. On the downside (9), some
operations have taken up to fifty minutes longer because surgeons are inexperienced
at using the new technology. As surgeons become more familiar with the machines,
the time needed for surgical procedures is likely to decrease.
As technologies continue to develop in the medical field, we may find that robots
become a permanent feature of the OR.
