The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

7. Avianca 52:
1990
• Bogotá New York
• Boeing 707
• Ran out of fuel on approach to JFK
(three holding patterns)
• 65 of 149 passengers, and 8 of 9
crew members, were killed
• 73 total fatalities
• National Transportation Safety
Board (NTSB): emergency was not
declared properly and ATC did not
understand how serious the
problem was
8. Avianca 52: 1990
“Twice in these moments, the crew told
controllers that they were running low on fuel.
But they did not declare an emergency, nor did
they object to their newly assigned route,
which although it was a tighter circle than the
first approach, still took them out over the Long
Island Sound.
‘Did you tell them we have an emergency?’' the
pilot asked his co-pilot, who was handling
communications with the controllers.
‘I told them we're low on fuel,’ he answered.”

10. National Transportation Safety Board
Aircraft Accident Report
1. The flightcrew did not adequately communicate its increasingly
critical fuel-situation to the controllers who handled the flight.
2. The first officer, who made all recorded transmissions to U.S.
controllers, was sufficiently proficient in English to be
understood by air traffic control personnel.
3. The first officer incorrectly assumed that his request for
priority handling by air traffic control had been understood as
a request for emergency handling. The captain experienced
difficulties in monitoring communications between the flight
and air traffic control.
4. The controllers' actions in response to AVA052's requests were
proper and responsive to a request for priority handling. They
did not understand that an emergency situation existed.
5. The first officer, who made all recorded radio transmissions in
English, never used the word "Emergency," even when he
radioed that two engines had flamed out, and he did not use
the appropriate phraseology published in United States
aeronautical publications to communicate to air traffic control
the flight's minimum fuel status.
11. Avianca 52: 1990
• In Spanish, “to have just done” something can be expressed as “Acabar de:”
• “Acabo de llegar en casa.” = I have just arrived home.
• “Acabamos de terminar combustible.” = We have just run out of fuel.
• However, in English, the word “just” has several meanings...
FO ATC ATC

Avianca five two climb
maintain three thousand
2130:36
Ah negative sir we just running
out of fuel we okay three
thousand now okay
12. “We just running out of fuel”
Depreciatory: “Just” can be used to minimize,
or make less serious, a fact:
“I’m just kidding.”
“He just has his private pilot license.”
Specificatory: “Just” can be used to show that
something occurred right before:
“We have just had lunch.”
“We have just lost all four engines.”
Emphatic: “Just” can be used to emphasize a
point:
“That is just what I mean.”
“That is just fine.”
Restrictive: “Just” can be used to indicate a
small amount of something:
“You have just one chance to pass.”
“We are just five minutes away.”
13. “We just running out of fuel”
• The controller would have had to guess what grammatical
meaning the FO was trying to express…
• His structure was “we just running out of fuel”
• Did he mean,
• “We are just running out of fuel.” (Depreciatory)
...or did he mean...
• “We have just run out of fuel.” (Specificatory)
Depreciatory: The use of “just” can
minimize a fact:
“I’m just kidding.”
Specificatory: “Just” can be used
to show that something occurred
right before:
“We have just had lunch.”
14. ICAO’s Response
• Establishment of Language Proficiency Requirements
• Operational Level 4: “minimum level acceptable to ensure safe operations” for
pilots or controllers operating in international environments
Level Pronunciation Structure Vocabulary Fluency Comprehension Interaction
Operational 4
Pronunciation, stress,
rhythm, and
intonation are
influenced by the first
language or regional
variation but only
sometimes interfere
with ease of
understanding
Basic grammatical
structures and
sentence patterns are
used creatively and are
usually well controlled.
Errors may occur,
particularly in unusual
or unexpected
circumstances, but
rarely interfere with
meaning.
Vocabulary range and
accuracy are usually
sufficient to
communicate
effectively on common,
concrete, and work-
related topics. Can
often paraphrase
successfully when
lacking vocabulary in
unusual or unexpected
circumstances.
Produces stretches of
language at an
appropriate tempo.
There may be
occasional loss of
fluency on transition
from rehearsed or
formulaic speech to
spontaneous
interaction, but this
does not prevent
effective
communication. Can
make limited use of
discourse markers or
connectors. Fillers are
not distracting.
Comprehension is
mostly accurate on
common, concrete, and
work-related topics
when the accent or
variety used is
sufficiently intelligible
for an international
community of users.
When the speaker is
confronted with a
linguistic or situational
complication or an
unexpected turn of
events, comprehension
may be slower or
require clarification
strategies.
Responses are usually
immediate,
appropriate, and
informative. Initiates
and maintains
exchanges even when
dealing with an
unexpected turn of
events. Deals
adequately with
apparent
misunderstandings by
checking, confirming,
or clarifying.

was well prepared and he has a good back ground about this kind of operation. Moreover, I had chit-chatwithhim after the class, and I found out he is a
pilot and he still flies aircraft. I reallylike theideaof observe classes,and I willstartto requestto observe moreclasses. Thank you”
Last Wednesday, I observed one class at Embry Riddle Aeronautical
University called Macroeconomics in order to improve mylistening
skilland knowledge. This course was explained by the professor
___________who is an excellent teacher. Firstly,I had some difficultiesto
understand and to listen because the professor was using a lotof
