1

PRECIOUS METAL
Gold has several qualities that have made it a commodity of exceptional value throughout
history. It is attractive in colour, durable to the point of virtual ____________ (destroy), and
usually found in nature in a ____________ (compare) pure form. The history of gold is
____________ (equal) by that of any other metal because of its value in the minds of men
from earliest times.
Because it is visually pleasing it was one of the first metals to attract human
____________ (attend). Examples of elaborate gold workmanship, many in nearly perfect
condition, survive from ancient Egyptian, Minoan, Assyrian, and Etruscan artisans, and gold
has continued to be a highly ____________ (favour) material out of which jewellery and
other ____________(decor) objects are crafted.
The era of gold production that followed the Spanish discovery of the Americans in the
1490s was probably the greatest the world had witnessed to that time. The ____________
(exploit) of mines by slave labour and the looting of Indian palaces, temples, and graves in
Central and South America resulted in a (n) ____________ (precedent) influx of gold that

 ALL WORK AND NO PLAY
Playing is a serious business. Children engrossed in a make-believe world, fox cubs play
fighting, or kittens teasing a a ball of string, aren’t just having fun. Play may look like a
____________ (care) and exuberant way to pass the time before the hard work of
____________ (adult) comes along, but there is much more to it than that. For a start, play
can be dangerous and costs some animals their lives. It is also extremely ____________
(cost) in terms of energy. Nature tends not to waste energy so there must be a reason for this
dangerous and strenuous activity.
Playing is a __________ (require) for the development of intelligence. Current theory posits
that’s more of the brain is involved in play than was previously believed. Play certainly
seems to ________ (act) higher cognitive processes because it involves complex__________
(assess) of playmates, ideas of reciprocity and the use of __________ (special) signals and
rules.
It is already know that juveniles denied the opportunity for play lose the ability to apply
social rules when they do interact with their peers. Children destined to suffer mental

exam-oriented, the time afforded to play is obviously being reduced.

which certain authors and printers were given the ____________ (exclude) right to publish
books and other materials. The ____________purpose of such grants are not to protect
authors9 or publishers’ rights but to raise government revenue and to give governing
authorities control over ____________ (public) contents. The Statute of Anne, passed in
England in 1710, was a ____________ (mile) in the history of copyright law as it recognized
that authors should be the ____________ (prime) beneficiaries of copyright law. Today, the

THE ART OF GIVING AND TAKING

Gift exchange , which is also called ____________ exchange (ceremonial), is the transfer
of goods or services that, although regarded as ____________ (volunteer) by people
involved, is part of the expected social behavior. Gift exchange may be distinguished from

3
and there is no haggling between donor and ____________ (receive); the exchange is an
expression of existing social relationship or of the establishment of a new on that differs
from ____________ (person) market relationships; and the profit in gift exchange may be in

The gist-exchange cycle entails ____________ (oblige) to give, to receive, and to return.
Sanctions my exist to induce people to give, ____________ (approve) or loss of prestige
resulting from a failure to do so. ____________ (refuse) to accept a gift may be seen as
rejection of social relations and may lead to enmity. The reciprocity of the cycle rests in the
necessity to return the gift; the prestige associated with the appearance of ____________
(generous) dictates that the value of the return be approximately equal to or greater than the
value of the original gift. Alongside its obvious economic functions, gift exchange is a
significant expression of social relations.

WILLIAMSHAKESPEARE
William Shakespeare was the son of John Shakespeare, an ____________ (aldermantry)
and a successful ____________ (glove) originally from Snitterfield, and Mary Arden, the
daughter of an ____________ (affluence) ____________ (landocracy) farmer.He was
born in Stratford-upon-Avon and ____________ (baptism) there on 26 April 1564. His
actual date of birth remains unknown, but is traditionally observed on 23 April, Saint
George's Day. This date, which can be traced back to an 18th-century scholar's mistake, has
proved appealing to biographers, since Shakespeare died 23 April 1616. He was the third
child of eight and the eldest surviving son.
Although no attendance records for the period survive, most biographers agree that
Shakespeare was probably ____________ (education) at the King's New School in
Stratford, a free school chartered in 1553,about a quarter-mile from his home. Grammar
schools varied in quality during the Elizabethan era, but grammar school ____________
(curriculum) were largely similar, the basic Latin text was ____________ (standard) by
royal ____________ (decreers), and the school would have provided an intensive education
in grammar based upon Latin classical authors.
At the age of 18, Shakespeare married the 26-year-old Anne Hathaway. The
____________ (consistorial) court of the Diocese of Worcester issued a marriage licence on
27 November 1582. The next day, two of Hathaway's neighbours posted bonds guaranteeing
that no ____________ (law) claims impeded the marriage.The ceremony may have been
arranged in some ____________ (hasten) , since the Worcester chancellor allowed the
marriage banns to be read once instead of the usual three times,and six months after the
marriage Anne gave birth to a daughter, Susanna, ____________ (baptism) 26 May 1583.
Twins, son Hamnet and daughter Judith, followed almost two years later and were
____________ (baptism) 2 February 1585. Hamnet died of ____________ (knowledgeable)
causes at the age of 11and was buried 11 August 1596.
