     Topic 2:  Where is this or that located?
           (A system is a part of a super-system)
 

     Emil and Colabo watched a movie about military pilots.  One episode made them exited.

     "A pilot informs an operator: "There is no gas in the tanks!"  An operator replies: "Hold on!  Use your experience! We'll try to help You!"  ...  All ended well."
     How the pilots manage to escape death?

     You will be helped by a captain, who during his voyage would get into predicaments and nevertheless reached his aim.  Let's remember this captain's name.
 

Draw where this captain lives. 

  
We already know that any system consists of parts or .................

In order to manage to draw a nice picture, all parts of the pen have to be assembled.  But besides a picture, a pen, you need a piece of paper, a skilled hand and an interesting topic for a picture.

Any system is a part of a super-system.

     Add to the list and name the super-system you've got:

desks, blackboard, text-books, pens, ................................... : .......................

flowers, spring, sun, butterflies, ............................................... : .......................

waves, sail, seagull, cloud, ........................................................... : ........................
 


     Cross out what does not match, name the group of words.

1.  Table, chair, bed, floor, wardrobe.  .....................................

2.  Milk, cream, apple, sour cream, cheese.  ............................

3.  Sweet, hot, bitter, sour, salty.  ...........................................

4.  Vasilii, Fyodor, Semen, Ivanov, Petr.  ................................

5.  Brave, gallant, determent, wicked, courageous.  ........................

6.  Football, volley-ball, hockey, swimming, basketball.  .......................


 
    You probably remember how Captain Vrungel was teaching his sailor Fux to learn about ship equipment.  He made for him being a card-player a familiar subsystem - he hanged the playing cards on the sails and ordered:

     -  Get ready to turn!  Unbind  Six of Spades, tighten  Knave of Hearts, bind Ten of Diamonds!  Fux was quickly finding familiar cards and was doing everything right.

     And what if you mentally change a super-system in an activity on military pilots?  Agreed?  Of course, this was a training  device a copy of a real plane.

     Choose three colors matching each other the best.  Use them to color the whole frame.  What does the picture look like?  Give a title to your picture.
