Read the text and translate the passage in bold.

There are four working languages in ICAO – English, French, Spanish and Russian. But all meetings, conferences and assemblies are conducted in English and then all materials are translated into other languages. For this purpose ICAO has a special “Language and Publications Branch” with four sections.

The most urgent problem in aviation is safety. The progress in safety is achieved by intensive efforts in various spheres – engineering sciences, meteorology, psychology, medicine, economics and “last but not least” the English language. Insufficient English language proficiency often results in accidents and incidents. Concern over the role of language in airline accidents brought real actions. So in March 2003 ICAO adopted Amendments to ICAO Annexes 1, 6, 10 and 11. These Amendments make clear and extend language requirements. In addition, they contain new more strict requirements for language testing.

Additional standards in Annex 10 demand to adhere more closely to standard phraseology in all air-ground exchanges and to use plain language when phraseology is not sufficient. Phraseology alone is unable to cover all of the potential situations, particularly in critical or emergency situations. Therefore the PELA (Proficiency in English Language) test examines use of both ATC phraseology and plain English.


Answer the following questions.
How many working languages are there in ICAO? In what language does the ICAO conduct meetings, conferences and assemblies? How is the progress in safety achieved? Why is English language so important in solving safety problems? What are ICAO real actions for improving English language proficiency? Will you describe the Amendments to ICAO Annexes adopted in 2003? What do additional standards demand? Can phraseology alone cover the entire potential situation in the air? Why (not)? What are the PELA test requirements today?
Read the text again and decide if the following statements are true or false. If the statement is false correct it.

1. English is an only working language in ICAO.

2. Poor English language proficiency may result in accidents and incidents.

3. ICAO can’t do anything with language problems in aviation.

4. Phraseology alone is able to cover all of the potential situations in flight.

5. PELA test examines both ATC phraseology and plain English.
