Task 6.25, Single out cases of using non-flnite verb forms (Participles, Gerunds and Infinitives) in the following groups of sentences. Translate them into Ukrainian.

A.Ethical standards usually are not established by government legislation, although ignoring ethical issues could mean engaging in illegal activities. Instead, ethical standards are a set of principles a person uses when considering the rights, privileges, and anticipated responses of all persons and groups likely to be affected by an individual’s or organization’s actions.

B.Information has become a valuable asset for both individuals and organizations. As you become comfortable working with technology, you will naturally explore new methods for gathering, storing, and exchanging data. With this power, there is also potential for abuse. Used with malice or neglect, computer technology can become a tool for committing crimes or infringing upon your individual rights to privacy.

C.Computers can store personal information about every aspect of your life. The information held about you in a computer file can be used for beneficial purposes. A nation understands the make-up of its citizens by maintaining census data on individuals. Your financial records can be exchanged electronically between banks and credit offices, perhaps to expedite processing of a loan application. The positive uses for personal data files abound. However, computer-based data files also are prime targets of abuse.

D.Information is power. Constructive use of information opens great potential for improvements and benefits. The fact that millions of computers exist establishes that they are wanted and that they are serving the needs of people and organizations. Used properly, computers are powerful and valuable tools. Computers can be and have been misused, .however. In the hands of a dishonest person with knowledge about sensitive systems, the computer can become a powerful, hard-to-detect tool for the criminal.

E.The news media have detailed hundreds of crimes that involved computers. To make matters worse, experts fear that reported cases make up only a small portion of overall computer crime because many such crimes go undetected, and many that are detected are not reported. Banks and other financial institutions are particularly negligent in reporting computer crimes because they don’t want to undermine public confidence in them.

F.Some people wonder if being ethical these days means no more than having escaped conviction. The ethical question seems to have become , “Was it legal?” We get ourselves in trouble when a society considers ethics and legality to be the same.
