Упр.60 Unit 3 ГДЗ Enjoy English 11 класс

These rules are humorous, not serious. They sound like jokes because they are based on irony and exaggeration.

• If an experiment works, something has gone wrong. — this is funny because a successful experiment is usually a good thing.
• When you don’t know what you’re doing, do it neatly. — this is humorous advice, not real scientific guidance.
• Experience is directly proportional to equipment ruined. — this is an exaggerated joke about learning from mistakes.
• Always keep a record of your data. It indicates that you have been working. — this is ironic: the record is shown as proof of work, not as a scientific necessity.
• To do a lab really well, have your report done well in advance. — this is a joke about writing the report before the experiment.
• If in doubt, make it sound convincing. — this is clearly humorous and not honest advice.
• Do not believe in miracles — rely on them. — this is a paradoxical, funny statement.
• Team work is essential; it allows you to blame someone else. — this is ironic and clearly meant as a joke.
• All unmarked beakers contain fast-acting, extremely toxic poisons. — this is an absurd exaggeration.
• No experiment is a complete failure. At least it can serve as a negative example. — this is humorous because even failure is presented positively.
• Any delicate and expensive piece of glassware will break before any use can be made of it. — this is a funny exaggeration about laboratory equipment.
