Прочитайте и переведите без словаря.А new vacuum-controlled constant velocity carburetor developed by an American company offers several advantages over ordinary carburetors, including 25 per cent gasoline economy, improvedengine performance and easier starting. The device having only 54parts compared with some 300 in conventional carburetors has nochoke (дроссель). It constantly adjusts the mixture of fuel and air,which cannot be done in usual carburetors. Provided with specialmechanism the carburetor helps the engine turn on at once in coldweather. Though developed quite recently, it is already being usedby cars and other kinds of public transport.

Butthere are some countries which are interested in importing the device as a replacement for existing carburetors.CONVERSATIONExercise 1.
