II. PROBLEM SOLVING


I) Writing definitions
In science writing, the very first task you should do is to write definitions. Sometimes you are
required to define a person, in other cases, you are asked to define an instrument, a noun, a technical term
etc. To write a definition, you often use a relative clause to clarify the noun/pronoun defined.
Example:
1. A barometer is an instrument which is used to measure atmospheric pressure.
2. Science is the term which is used to denote systemized knowledge in any field.
3. A scientist is a person who studies science.
Writing task:
Combining each of the clauses in section A with a suitable one in section B to make a definition
on each branch of science.
Section A

1. Archaeology 8. History
2.Architecture (computer science) 9. Information Science
3. Biology 10. Linguistics
4. Chemistry 11. Mathematics
5. Earth Science 12. Meteorology
6. Economics 13. Physics
7. Geography 14. Political Science
15. Psychology

- is a branch of science which/that……

Section B
a. studies the relationships among quantities, magnitudes, and properties and of logical operations
by which unknown quantities, magnitudes, and properties may be deduced.
b. deals with the fundamental constituents of the universe, the forces they exert on one another, and
the results produced by these forces.
c. studies of the composition, structure, properties, and interactions of matter.
d. functions as a means of encompassing the growing number of disciplines involved with the study
of living forms.
e. deals with the distribution and arrangement of all elements of the earth's surface.
f. is the scientific study of language.
