← Voltar para a lista de provas Instituto Militar de Engenharia (IME) · Concurso de Admissão — Prova de Português e Inglês 43 questões nesta prova · página 2 de 3 · 40 com gabarito Sem padrão de resposta — pratique a escrita O seu texto deverá ter entre 25 (vinte e cinco) a 30 (trinta) linhas escritas à tinta azul ou preta. Gabarito disponível 'May not know' expressa possibilidade de alguns leitores desconhecerem Hedy Lamarr. O autor 'adivinha' (I'm guessing) que alguns leitores jovens talvez não saibam quem foi Hedy Lamarr, o que expressa possibilidade/suposição. 'May not know' traduz exatamente isso. A) 'ought to know' indica dever, sentido diferente e incoerente com a suposição. B) 'must not know' indicaria proibição ou dedução forte de forma inadequada. C) 'should have known' indica crítica sobre o passado. D) 'will have known' é futuro perfeito, incoerente com o contexto. Referência: Verbos modais: may (possibilidade). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível 'Unknown to' = desconhecida por seus fãs, coerente com 'They were unaware'. A frase seguinte diz que fãs e colegas 'were unaware' do lado criativo dela. Logo, 'Unknown to her fans... was her creative side' (desconhecido para seus fãs) é a única que mantém a coerência e a estrutura sintática. A) 'Spotted by' (avistado por) contradiz o desconhecimento. C) 'Shadowed under' não faz sentido no contexto. D) 'Disguised as' (disfarçado de) altera o sentido e exigiria outra complementação. E) 'Characterized by' (caracterizado por) afirma que o lado criativo era conhecido, contrariando o texto. Referência: Vocabulário em contexto; coesão textual. Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Conjunção temporal 'when' introduz oração subordinada. A lacuna exige uma conjunção que introduza uma oração com sujeito e verbo ('the cameras were not rolling'). 'When' (quando) é a única que cumpre isso: 'quando as câmeras não estavam gravando, ela poderia estar em casa trabalhando'. As demais são preposições ou exigem outra estrutura. A) 'before' exigiria sentido de anterioridade, incoerente aqui. B) 'during' é preposição e não aceita oração. C) 'for' não tem valor temporal adequado. E) 'after' mudaria o sentido (depois que as câmeras pararam) e não se encaixa no contexto de simultaneidade. Referência: Conjunções temporais em inglês (when, while). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível 'Despite' + 'an admirer' expressa contraste com ignorar o lado inventor. A lacuna vem antes de um sintagma nominal ('an admirer...'), e 'despite' introduz concessão com substantivo. A leitura é 'apesar de ser admirador, eu também ignorava seu lado inovador'. B) 'Since' e C) 'although' exigiriam oração com verbo. D) 'Anyhow' é advérbio. E) 'Unless' é condicional e também pede oração. Referência: Conectivos (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Patentes são 'issued' (concedidas) a inventores. A colocação padrão é 'a patent issued to' alguém, e o particípio 'issued' funciona como adjetivo: uma patente concedida a Lamarr e Antheil. A) 'Transferred' é transferida e exigiria outro contexto. B) 'Tackled' é enfrentado. C) 'Addressed' é endereçado ou abordado. D) 'Authorized' é autorizado, e não é o verbo próprio para patente concedida a alguém. Referência: Vocabulário em contexto (inglês): colocações. Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Passado perfeito contínuo: a guerra já estava ocorrendo antes de 1937. A ação da guerra era contínua e anterior a outro ponto do passado, a saída de Hedy em 1937. 'Had been raging' expressa isso. A) 'Can have raged' e E) 'could be raging' não cabem numa narrativa passada. B) 'Should have been raging' indica obrigação ou expectativa frustrada. C) 'Would have raged' exigiria condição não expressa. Referência: Past perfect continuous (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível 'Chartered' significa criado oficialmente com uma missão. O Conselho foi 'newly organized' e 'chartered to evaluate technology', ou seja, instituído oficialmente para avaliar tecnologia útil na guerra. 'Chartered' é o termo certo para uma entidade criada com mandato. A) 'Exempted' é isentado. B) 'Designed' não combina com 'to evaluate'. C) 'Dismissed' é dispensado. D) 'Entwined' é entrelaçado. Referência: Vocabulário em contexto (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível 'Neither' retoma as duas opções anteriores, que ela não fez. A frase anterior apresenta duas opções: abandonar o cinema e oferecer seus serviços ao NIC. 'She did neither, however' diz que ela não fez nenhuma das duas, o que cabe com 'however'. A) 'Owt' é dialetal e não serve. C) 'Both' contrariaria o 'however'. D) 'Any' exigiria negação ('didn't do any'). E) 'Each' exigiria outro complemento. Referência: Pronomes indefinidos (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível 'Could have been' expressa possibilidade passada: uma entre várias inspirações. A frase diz que o console 'could have been just one among several inputs' que a inspiraram. A modalidade de possibilidade no passado combina com o contexto de especulação, e 'could have been' dá essa leitura. A) 'Wouldn't have been' indica hipótese irreal sem condição. C) 'Must have never been' é uma dedução negativa que contradiz 'one among several inputs'. D) 'Hadn't ever been' é um passado perfeito sem sentido aqui. E) 'Had almost been' não faz sentido com 'just one among'. Referência: Verbos modais no passado (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível 'Come up with' significa conceber ou ter uma ideia. A frase é 'inspired her to ___ the idea she called hopping of frequencies'. 'Come up with' significa conceber ou propor uma ideia, e encaixa com 'the idea'. B) 'Come down on' significa repreender. C) 'Come through' é cumprir ou passar por algo. D) 'Come over' é visitar. E) 'Come about' é acontecer, e é intransitivo, então não aceita complemento. Referência: Phrasal verbs (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Não há marco legal consistente para as áreas além da jurisdição nacional. O texto fala da necessidade de 'developing a consistent and transparent legal framework' para as ABNJ e afirma que nelas não existe mecanismo de repartição de benefícios. Isso é compatível com a ausência de doutrina legal sobre o uso dessas áreas. A) Há uma 'rush to claim' o espaço oceânico, então a posse não está estabelecida. C) O 'blue growth' é visto como promissor. D) As áreas ABNJ 'remain poorly understood', logo pouco se sabe. E) O texto não diz que corporações estudaram mais da metade da superfície do planeta. Referência: Interpretação de texto (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Patentes sobre MGRs servem para garantir acesso exclusivo aos benefícios econômicos. O texto diz que 'one way to ensure exclusive access to these potential economic benefits is through patents associated with MGRs'. Isso corresponde a corporações usarem patentes para garantir que serão as únicas a lucrar. B) O Protocolo de Nagoya vale para recursos em jurisdições nacionais, e 'no such mechanism currently exists for ABNJ'. C) A política internacional não definiu o uso comercial mais lucrativo. D) O texto não trata de leis de uso não comercial. E) A projeção de mercado até 2025 não obriga indústrias a investir. Referência: Interpretação de texto (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Depois da definição de MGRs, a continuação natural trata do registro de patentes como fronteira opaca. A lacuna aparece após a definição de recursos genéticos e antes do Protocolo de Nagoya. A frase D retoma o tema das patentes sobre esses recursos e prepara o contraste com o mecanismo de repartição de benefícios, que existe só para jurisdições nacionais. A) Começa com 'However' e fala de recursos financeiros e retornos, tema que ainda não foi introduzido. B) Fala de pesquisas passadas sobre países e atores, o que quebra a sequência. C) 'Because of this' pressupõe uma causa sobre corporações transnacionais que não foi apresentada. E) 'This facilitates' fala de custos de coleta, sem relação com o trecho anterior. Referência: Coesão e coerência textual (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível As informações sobre o esforço holandês só ficaram disponíveis nos últimos 10–15 anos. O texto diz que o sucesso EUA/Grã-Bretanha ofuscou o esforço holandês e que as informações sobre ele só ficaram disponíveis nos últimos 10–15 anos. Portanto, esse esforço não era valorizado até cerca de uma década atrás. A) O texto diz que os holandeses usaram métodos próprios e que o preço caiu com o tempo, e o aumento da oferta não foi automático. B) O atraso do uso clínico não é apresentado como causado pelo impacto da descoberta. D) 'Just over 75 years' de uso clínico é plenamente possível. E) A cooperação foi bem-sucedida 'by 1943', não depois de 1943. Referência: Interpretação de texto (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Serendipity é acaso feliz, o que corresponde a fluke. O texto fala de 'a chance event' no laboratório de Fleming. 'Serendipity' é uma descoberta feliz por acaso, e 'fluke' é um golpe de sorte ou acaso. A) Strategy e D) plan indicam planejamento, o oposto do acaso. C) Nuisance é incômodo. E) Mishap é um infortúnio, sem a ideia de resultado positivo. Referência: Vocabulário em contexto (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Quem estivesse em Rugby há mais de 80 anos poderia ter ouvido o motor. O texto afirma: 'Had you been passing through the byways of Rugby... more than 80 years ago, you might even have heard it'. Isso equivale a dizer que alguém em Rugby, há cerca de 80 anos, poderia ter presenciado o teste. B) O texto diz que o giro da turbina mudou o mundo, então foi um marco. C) Whittle nasceu em Coventry, e o teste ocorreu em Rugby. D) Não se afirma que as dúvidas eram justificadas. E) O texto não diz que o uivo justificou a indiferença, e diz que ele alterou o modo como viajamos. Referência: Interpretação de texto (inglês): condicional do tipo 3. Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Os problemas de Whittle eram pouco dinheiro e desdém pelo projeto. O texto cita 'official indifference and scientific doubt' e o triunfo obtido por 'a merest financial hair's breadth', além do Ministério ter chamado a ideia de impraticável. Isso mostra falta de recursos e desprezo pelo projeto. A) O texto diz que o triunfo ocorreu apesar da indiferença, não por haver patrocinadores ansiosos. B) O financiamento veio em 1936 e o triunfo em 1937, não uma década depois. C) O dinheiro era escasso (£2.000), e o triunfo foi por um fio. E) Williams e Tinling fundaram a empresa com Whittle, então já estavam convencidos, e a condicional não faz sentido. Referência: Interpretação de texto (inglês). Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível Não surpreende que um banco que gosta de risco tenha financiado um projeto desprezado. O texto descreve a O.T. Falk & Partners como um banco 'known for taking risks'. Isso explica o aporte de £2.000 ao projeto que o Ministério havia rejeitado como impraticável, tratado como fantasia. A alternativa C ecoa essa relação. A) A patente (1930) veio antes do teste (1937) e do dinheiro. B) Ele lutava contra a corrente desde 1927–29, bem mais de três anos antes do teste. D) A patente francesa é de 1921 e o financiamento é de 1936, ou seja, quinze anos depois, não dez. E) O Ministério do Ar rejeitou a ideia em 1929 e fez a primeira encomenda em 1940, então foi a mesma instituição. Referência: Interpretação de texto (inglês): inferência e dados do texto. Resolução comentada do VaiConcursos. Gabarito disponível A frase indica que, após o teste inicial, vieram vários avanços. 'That first blur of blades... was followed by a series of leaps forward' significa que, depois do primeiro funcionamento da turbina, houve uma série de avanços (a encomenda, o voo). Isso corresponde a 'após os testes, uma série de fatos levou a progresso positivo'. A) 'Leaps forward' são avanços, não dificuldades. B) Nada diz que o espaçamento das pás foi ajustado em 1939. C) O avião voou em 1941, quatro anos depois do teste de 1937, não dez. D) A primeira encomenda do Ministério foi em 1940, não antes. Referência: Interpretação de texto (inglês): paráfrase de trecho.

Texto 1
BECOS DE GOIÁS
1 Beco da minha terra...
Amo tua paisagem triste, ausente e suja.
Teu ar sombrio. Tua velha umidade andrajosa.
Teu lodo negro, esverdeado, escorregadio.
5 E a réstia de sol que ao meio-dia desce, fugidia,
e semeia polmes dourados no teu lixo pobre,
calçando de ouro a sandália velha,
jogada no teu monturo.
Amo a prantina silenciosa do teu fio de água,
10 descendo de quintais escusos
sem pressa,
e se sumindo depressa na brecha de um velho cano.
Amo a avenca delicada que renasce
na frincha de teus muros empenados,
15 e a plantinha desvalida, de caule mole
que se defende, viceja e floresce
no agasalho de tua sombra úmida e calada.
Amo esses burros-de-lenha
que passam pelos becos antigos. Burrinhos dos morros,
20 secos, lanzudos, malzelados, cansados, pisados.
Arrochados na sua carga, sabidos, procurando a sombra,
no range-range das cangalhas.
E aquele menino, lenheiro ele, salvo seja.
Sem infância, sem idade.
25 Franzino, maltrapilho,
pequeno para ser homem,
forte para ser criança.
Ser indefeso, indefinido, que só se vê na minha cidade.
Amo e canto com ternura
30 todo o errado da minha terra.
Becos da minha terra,
discriminados e humildes,
lembrando passadas eras...
Beco do Cisco.
35 Beco do Cotovelo.
Beco do Antônio Gomes.
Beco das Taquaras.
Beco do Seminário.
Bequinho da Escola.
40 Beco do Ouro Fino.
Beco da Cachoeira Grande.
Beco da Calabrote.
Beco do Mingu.
Beco da Vila Rica...
45 Conto a estória dos becos,
dos becos da minha terra,
suspeitos... mal afamados
onde família de conceito não passava.
“Lugar de gentinha” - diziam, virando a cara.
50 De gente do pote d’água.
De gente de pé no chão.
Becos de mulher perdida.
Becos de mulheres da vida.
Renegadas, confinadas
55 na sombra triste do beco.
Quarto de porta e janela.
Prostituta anemiada,
solitária, hética, engalicada,
tossindo, escarrando sangue
60 na umidade suja do beco.
Becos mal assombrados.
Becos de assombração...
Altas horas, mortas horas...
Capitão-mor - alma penada,
65 terror dos soldados, castigado nas armas.
Capitão-mor, alma penada,
num cavalo ferrado,
chispando fogo,
descendo e subindo o beco,
70 comandando o quadrado - feixe de varas...
Arrastando espada, tinindo esporas...
Mulher-dama. Mulheres da vida,
perdidas,
começavam em boas casas, depois,
75 baixavam pra o beco.
Queriam alegria. Faziam bailaricos.
- Baile Sifilítico - era ele assim chamado.
O delegado-chefe de Polícia - brabeza -
dava em cima...
80 Mandava sem dó, na peia.
No dia seguinte, coitadas,
cabeça raspada a navalha,
obrigadas a capinar o Largo do Chafariz,
na frente da Cadeia.
85 Becos da minha terra...
Becos de assombração.
Românticos, pecaminosos...
Têm poesia e têm drama.
O drama da mulher da vida, antiga,
90 humilhada, malsinada.
Meretriz venérea,
desprezada, mesentérica, exangue.
Cabeça raspada a navalha,
castigada a palmatória,
95 capinando o largo,
chorando. Golfando sangue.
(ÚLTIMO ATO)
Um irmão vicentino comparece.
Traz uma entrada grátis do São Pedro de Alcântara.
100 Uma passagem de terceira no grande coletivo de São Vicente.
Uma estação permanente de repouso - no aprazível São Miguel.
Cai o pano.

Texto 2
O ELEFANTE
1 Fabrico um elefante
de meus poucos recursos.
Um tanto de madeira
tirado a velhos móveis
5 talvez lhe dê apoio.
E o encho de algodão,
de paina, de doçura.
A cola vai fixar
suas orelhas pensas.
10 A tromba se enovela,
é a parte mais feliz
de sua arquitetura.
Mas há também as presas,
dessa matéria pura
15 que não sei figurar.
Tão alva essa riqueza
a espojar-se nos circos
sem perda ou corrupção.
E há por fim os olhos,
20 onde se deposita
a parte do elefante
mais fluida e permanente,
alheia a toda fraude.
Eis o meu pobre elefante
25 pronto para sair
à procura de amigos
num mundo enfastiado
que já não crê em bichos
e duvida das coisas.
30 Ei-lo, massa imponente
e frágil, que se abana
e move lentamente
a pele costurada
onde há flores de pano
35 e nuvens, alusões
a um mundo mais poético
onde o amor reagrupa
as formas naturais.
Vai o meu elefante
40 pela rua povoada,
mas não o querem ver
nem mesmo para rir
da cauda que ameaça
deixá-lo ir sozinho.
45 É todo graça, embora
as pernas não ajudem
e seu ventre balofo
se arrisque a desabar
ao mais leve empurrão.
50 Mostra com elegância
sua mínima vida,
e não há cidade
alma que se disponha
a recolher em si
55 desse corpo sensível
a fugitiva imagem,
o passo desastrado
mas faminto e tocante.
Mas faminto de seres
60 e situações patéticas,
de encontros ao luar
no mais profundo oceano,
sob a raiz das árvores
ou no seio das conchas,
65 de luzes que não cegam
e brilham através
dos troncos mais espessos.
Esse passo que vai
sem esmagar as plantas
70 no campo de batalha,
à procura de sítios,
segredos, episódios
não contados em livro,
de que apenas o vento,
75 as folhas, a formiga
reconhecem o talhe,
mas que os homens ignoram,
pois só ousam mostrar-se
sob a paz das cortinas
80 à pálpebra cerrada.
E já tarde da noite
volta meu elefante,
mas volta fatigado,
as patas vacilantes
85 se desmancham no pó.
Ele não encontrou
o de que carecia,
o de que carecemos,
eu e meu elefante,
90 em que amo disfarçar-me.
Exausto de pesquisa,
caiu-lhe o vasto engenho
como simples papel.
A cola se dissolve
95 e todo o seu conteúdo
de perdão, de carícia,
de pluma, de algodão,
jorra sobre o tapete,
qual mito desmontado.
100 Amanhã recomeço.

Texto 1
FROM FILM STAR TO FREQUENCY-HOPPING INVENTOR
I’m guessing that some younger readers ____(21)____ who Hedy Lamarr was. Old-timers remember her as a popular Hollywood star of the mid-20th century. Characterized by MGM studio mogul Louis B. Mayer as “the most beautiful girl in the world,” a title said to originally have been bestowed by stage director Max Reinhardt, she appeared in some 25 Hollywood films between 1938 and 1958.
____(22)____ her fans and many of her Hollywood colleagues was her creative side. They were unaware that ____(23)____ the cameras were not rolling, Ms. Lamarr might be at home at her drawing board, diligently working at some concept that might lead to a commercial product or a patentable invention.
____(24)____ an admirer of Hedy Lamarr the movie star (I particularly remember her in “Ziegfeld Girl,” costarring James Stewart, Judy Garland, Lana Turner, and Tony Martin, and “H. M. Pulham, Esq.,” with Robert Young and Van Heflen), I too was unaware of her innovative proclivities until 1984, when historian of cryptology David Kahn authored an article in IEEE Spectrum. It revealed to the uninitiated the existence of a 1941 patent ____(25)____ to Lamarr and her co-inventor, George Antheil, based on frequency-hopping and titled “Secret Communication System.” World War II ____(26)____ in Europe, and Hedy, a native Austrian, left her munitions magnate husband Friedrich Mandl and relocated to the United States in 1937. As Hitler moved relentlessly in his attempt to conquer most of northern Europe, she was appalled by the German U-boat sinking of the SS City of Benarus. (…). She considered quitting the movie business and offering her services to the newly organized National Inventors Council (NIC), ____(27)____ to evaluate technology that could be useful in wartime, and chaired by inventor Charles Kettering. She did ____(28)____, however.
In Hollywood, Hedy had met George Antheil, not an engineer but a composer with “a fair grasp of electronics,” as historian Kahn expressed it. Antheil joined her in her attempt to devise a jam-proof guidance system for Allied torpedoes. A year before Pearl Harbor, she told Antheil she knew “a good deal about new munitions and various secret weapons,” presumably knowledge acquired while she was privy to discussions between Mandl and his munitions agents.
While not on the movie set, Lamarr would work with Antheil in her apartment to move her idea from concept to a practical system. In her early working documents a reference is made to the 116RX, the 1939 Philco radio console that featured the first wireless remote control (termed the Mystery Control and offering the listener options to select up to eight stations, a volume control, and an off switch). This ____(29)____ just one among several inputs that inspired her to ____(30)____ the idea she called “hopping of frequencies” (...)

CORPORATE CONTROL AND GLOBAL GOVERNANCE OF MARINE GENETIC RESOURCES
INTRODUCTION
The prospect of the ocean generating a new era of “blue growth” is increasingly finding its way into national and international policy documents around the world and has spurred a rush to claim ocean space and resources. If economic activities in coastal and offshore areas are to expand in an equitable and sustainable manner, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), progress is needed toward addressing multiple and potentially conflicting uses of ocean space within national jurisdictions, in addition to developing a consistent and transparent legal framework for the vast areas beyond national jurisdiction (ABNJ). These areas cover 64% of the world’s ocean and 47% of the Earth’s surface yet remain poorly understood or described.
Marine organisms have evolved to thrive in the extremes of pressure, temperature, chemistry, and darkness found in the ocean, resulting in unique adaptations that make them the object of commercial interest, particularly for biomedical and industrial applications. By 2025, the global market for marine biotechnology is projected to reach $6.4 billion, spanning a broad range of commercial purposes for the pharmaceutical, biofuel, and chemical industries. One way to ensure exclusive access to these potential economic benefits is through patents associated with “marine genetic resources” (MGRs). Although the term MGRs has never been formally described, it suggests a subset of “genetic resources”, which have been defined under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) as “genetic material of actual or potential value”.____________(33)____________. The adoption of the Nagoya Protocol in 2010 represented an important step within the international policy arena to define obligations associated with monetary and nonmonetary benefit sharing of genetic resources and their products sourced from within national jurisdictions. No such mechanism currently exists for ABNJ.

THE DISCOVERY OF PENICILLIN—NEW INSIGHTS AFTER MORE THAN 75 YEARS OF CLINICAL USE
ABSTRACT
After just over 75 years of penicillin’s clinical use, the world can see that its impact was immediate and profound. In 1928, a chance event in Alexander Fleming’s London laboratory changed the course of medicine. However, the purification and first clinical use of penicillin would take more than a decade. Unprecedented United States/Great Britain cooperation to produce penicillin was incredibly successful by 1943. This success overshadowed efforts to produce penicillin during World War II in Europe, particularly in the Netherlands. Information about these efforts, available only in the last 10–15 years, provides new insights into the story of the first antibiotic. Researchers in the Netherlands produced penicillin using their own production methods and marketed it in 1946, which eventually increased the penicillin supply and decreased the price. The unusual serendipity involved in the discovery of penicillin demonstrates the difficulties in finding new antibiotics and should remind health professionals to expertly manage these extraordinary medicines.

FRANK WHITTLE AND THE INVENTION OF THE JET ENGINE:
SIX PLACES TO TRACE HIS GENIUS
It was, in many ways, a very British sort of achievement. When the turbine began to spin on the “WU” – the prototype jet engine developed by the Coventry-born engineer Frank Whittle – it was a moment which changed the world. Had you been passing through the byways of Rugby, in Warwickshire, more than 80 years ago, you might even have heard it. A thrum of mechanics in sync, building and building, growing in intensity to become a roar; a giddy howl which would permanently alter the way we journey around our planet.
And yet it might so easily not have happened. Whittle’s triumph – on April 12, 1937 – was garnered in the face of official indifference and scientific doubt, and was only pulled off by a merest financial hair’s breadth, with the Second World War crowding in on all sides.
( . . . )
Here was a visionary who began fomenting his design for a jet engine as early as 1927, and patented it in 1930, yet had to swim against the current after seeing his idea pooh-poohed by the UK's Air Ministry – which, upon seeing the blueprint in 1929, deemed it “impracticable.”
Undeterred, Whittle took his own path. In January 1936, he founded a private company, Power Jets Ltd, with aeronautical engineer Rolf Dudley Williams and retired RAF officer James Collingwood Tinling. With £2,000 of funding from O.T. Falk & Partners – an investment bank which was known for taking risks – the trio began converting what had been decried as fantasy into reality.
That first blur of blades as the WU (Whittle Unit) screamed into life was followed by a series of leaps forward. The Air Ministry placed its first order for Whittle’s brainwave in January 1940. The first jet-powered British plane took off from RAF Cranwell, Lincolnshire, on May 15, 1941. The rest is so much history.
None of this occurred in isolation. The story of the jet engine can never be told without mentions of Maxime Guillaume, who secured a French patent for a jet engine with a gas turbine in 1921 (no prototype was ever produced as it was beyond the scope of existing technology), and of Hans Von Ohain, who beat Whittle to the punch by building the first fully operational jet engine in 1939 as Germany chased advantages in the global conflict.
