1. Bill (Shadowing)
The bill calls for the establishment of the National Landslide Hazards Reduction Program within one year
of becoming law. The program serves numerous functions, including to identify and understand landslide
hazards and risks, reduce losses from landslides, protect communities at risk of landslides hazards, and

8. Statistics (Shadowing)
Statistics are indicators of change and allow meaningful comparisons to be made. While it may be the
issues rather than the statistics as such that grab people's attention, it should be recognized that it is
the statistics that informed the issues. Statistical literacy, then, is the ability to accurately understand,
interpret and evaluate the data that inform these issues.

15. Tortoise
The tortoise size and shell shape varies depending on where they live. The shell is made of bone and is a
dull brown color. Their ribs, backbone and breastbone have become part of the shell, which is why you
can never separate the tortoise from its shell.

19. Expression
Expression became important during the romantic movement with artwork expressing a definite feeling,
as in the sublime or dramatic. Audience response was important, for the artwork was intended to evoke
an emotional response. This definition holds true today as artists look to connect with and evoke
responses from their viewers.

In the late 16th and 17th centuries, many English, French and Dutch emigrants went to North America in

30. Abortions
The Texas law prohibiting abortion after detectable embryonic cardiac activity was associated with a
decrease in in-state abortions and an increase in residents obtaining out-of-state abortions. The
proportion of out-of-state abortions obtained at 12 weeks increased significantly from 17.1% to 31%.

36. Circumcision
The role of women in promoting voluntary medical male circumcision uptake: research reveals the
important role played by women in influencing men to undergo circumcision. Women are also motivated
to convince men to undergo male circumcision because of the benefits associated with them such as
reduction of HIV transmission and cervical cancer.

Psychology is the study of cognitions, emotions, and behavior. Psychologists are involved in a variety of

Neither golden eagles nor bald eagles are endangered species. The US bald eagle population has more
than quadrupled since 2009, from around 72,000 to 317,000 birds. But the US golden eagle population
is still relatively small – around 30,000 birds – and at risk of declining.

Do something you are very passionate about and do not try to chase what is considered the hot passion
of the day. People say you have to have a lot of passion for what you’re doing, and it’s totally true. You
have to do it over a sustained period of time. So, if you don’t love it, you’re going to give up.

Within “wellness” paradigm of care, there would still be a place for use of medications that help people

From a child's point of view, what is the purpose of TV advertising? Is advertising on TV done to give

5. Telescope
Original:
On a starry night in Padua 400 years ago, Galileo first turned a telescope toward the sky. It might seem
the most natural of actions—after all, what else does one do with a telescope? But in 1609, the
instrument, which had been invented only the year before by Dutch opticians, was known as a "spyglass,"
in anticipation of its military uses. The device was also sold as a toy. When Galileo read of it, he quickly
set about making a much more powerful version. The Dutch telescopes magnified images by 3 times;
Galileo's telescopes magnified them by 8 to 30 times. At the time, astronomy, like much of science,
remained under the spell of Aristotle. Almost 2,000 years after his death, the giant of Greek philosophy
was held in such high regard that even his most suspect pronouncements were considered
unimpeachable. Aristotle had maintained that all celestial objects were perfect and immutable spheres,
and that the stars made a dizzying daily journey around the center of the universe, our stationary Earth.
Why scrutinize the sky? The system had already been neatly laid out in books. Astronomers "wish never
to raise their eyes from those pages," Galileo wrote in frustration, "as if this great book of the universe
had been written to be read by nobody but Aristotle, and his eyes had been destined to see for all
posterity." In Galileo's day, the study of astronomy was used to maintain and reform the calendar.
Sufficiently advanced students of astronomy made horoscopes; the alignment of the stars was believed
to influence everything from politics to health.

6. Women in University
Original:
If women are so far ahead of men, why are they so far behind? Reports from both sides of the Atlantic
show that female students dominate university courses, yet women still do not make it to the top. A
report on inequality in the UK said last week that girls had better educational results than boys at 16,
went to university in greater numbers and achieved better degrees once they got there. "More women
now have higher education qualifications than men in every age group up to age 44," the report said. In
the US, 57 per cent of college graduates in 2006-07 were women. Women form the majority of all
graduates under 45. Yet few women make it to the boards of companies in either country. In the UK, the
proportion of women on FTSE 100 boards rose fractionally from 11.7 per cent to 12.2 per cent last year,
according to the Cranfield University School of Management, but that was only because of a fall in the
size of the boards. In the US, women accounted for 15.2 per cent of board seats on Fortune 500
companies, according to Catalyst, the research organization, which said the numbers had barely budged
for five years. The hopeful way of looking at this is that the rising generation of female graduates has
yet to reach director age. Give it 10 years and they will dominate boards as they do universities. If that
were true, however, we would surely see the number of women director numbers moving up by now. The
first year that women college graduates outnumbered men in the US was 1982. These graduates must be
entering their 50s – prime director age.
Answer:
More women now have higher education qualifications than men in every age group up to age 44, and
women form the majority of all graduates under 45, which means that we would surely see the number
of women director numbers moving up by now, so the younger generation of women is thriving in the
workplace; there was still a large pay gap.

7. Levels of Crime
Original:
The British Crime Survey (BCS) provides an important source of information about levels of crime, public
attitudes to crime and other related issues. The results play an important role in informing Home Office
policy. The BCS measures the amount of crime in England and Wales by asking people about crimes
they have experienced in the last year. This includes crimes not reported to the police, so it is an
important alternative to police records. Victims do not report crime for various reasons, and without the
BCS there would be no official source of information on these unreported crimes. Because members of
the public are asked directly about their experiences, the survey also provides a consistent measure of
crime that is unaffected by the extent to which crimes are reported to the police, or by changes in the
criteria used by the police when recording crime. The survey also helps to identify those most at risk of
different types of crime, and this helps in the planning of crime prevention programs. The BCS also
examines people's attitudes to crime, such as how much they fear crime and what measures they take
to avoid it. The survey also covers attitudes to the Criminal Justice System (CJS), including the police
and the courts, and has also been successful at developing special measures to estimate the extent of
domestic violence, stalking and sexual victimization, which are probably the least reported to the police,
but among the most serious of crimes in their impact on victims.
Answer:
The British Crime Survey provides an important source of information, and the survey also provides a
consistent measure of crime that is unaffected, which means that the survey also helps to identify those
most at risk of different types of crime, so the BCS also examines people's attitudes to crime; the
survey also covers attitudes to the Criminal Justice System.

8. Human Traits
Original:
The age-old question of whether human traits are determined by nature or nurture has been answered, a
team of researchers say. Their conclusion? It’s a draw. By collating almost every twin study across the
world from the past 50 years, researchers determined that the average variation for human traits and
disease is 49 percent due to genetic factors and 51 percent due to environmental factors. University of
Queensland researcher Beben Benyamin from the Queensland Brain Institute collaborated with
researchers at VU University of Amsterdam to collate 2,748 studies involving more than 14.5 million pairs
of twins. “Twin studies have been conducted for more than 50 years but there is still some debate in
terms of how much the variation is due to genetic or environmental factors,” Benyamin said. He said the
study showed the conversation should move away from nature versus nurture, instead looking at how the
two work together. “Both are important sources of variation between individuals,” he said. While the
studies averaged an almost even split between nature and nurture, there was wide variation within the
17,800 separate traits and diseases examined by the studies. For example, the risk for bipolar disorder
was found to be 68 percent due to genetics and only 32 percent due to environmental factors. Weight
maintenance was 63 percent due to genetics and 37 percent due to environmental factors. In contrast,
risk for eating disorders was found to be 40 percent genetic and 60 percent environmental, whereas the
risk for mental and behavioral disorders due to use of alcohol was 41 percent genetic and 59 percent
environmental. Benyamin said in psychiatric, ophthalmological and skeletal traits, genetic factors were a
larger influence than environmental factors. But for social values and attitudes it was the other way
around.
Answer:
The average variation for human traits and disease is 49 percent due to genetic factors and 51 percent
due to environmental factors, and both are important sources of variation between individuals, which
means that in psychiatric, ophthalmological and skeletal traits, genetic factors were a larger influence
than environmental factors, but for social values and attitudes it was the other way around.

9. Difference in Intelligence
Original:
People differ greatly in all aspects of what is casually known as intelligence. The differences are
apparent not only in school, from kindergarten to college, but also in the most ordinary circumstances: in
the words people use and comprehend, in their differing abilities to read a map or follow directions, or in
their capacities for remembering telephone numbers or figuring change. The variations in these specific
skills are so common that they are often taken for granted. Yet what makes people so different? It would
be reasonable to think that the environment is the source of differences in cognitive skills — that we are
what we learn. It is clear, for example, that human beings are not born with a full vocabulary; they have
to learn words. Hence, learning must be the mechanism by which differences in vocabulary arise among
individuals. And differences in experience — say, in the extent to which parents model and encourage
vocabulary skills or in the quality of language training provided by schools — must be responsible for
individual differences in learning. Earlier in this century, psychology was in fact dominated by
environmental explanations for variance in cognitive abilities. More recently, however, most psychologists
have begun to embrace a more balanced view: one in which nature and nurture interact in cognitive
development. During the past few decades, studies in genetics have pointed to a substantial role for
heredity in molding the components of intellect, and researchers have even begun to track down the
genes involved in cognitive function. These findings do not refute the notion that environmental factors
shape the learning process. Instead they suggest that differences in people’s genes affect how easily
they learn.
Answer:
People differ greatly in all aspects of what is casually known as intelligence, and the differences are in
the most ordinary circumstances, which means that the environment is the source of differences in
cognitive skills, so differences in experience must be responsible for individual differences in learning;

Brains hum with electrical activity, and these signals are known to accompany certain mental states,
which means that brain waves are key to how the brain operates, routing information among far-flung
brain regions that need to work together, so brain oscillations deftly route information in a way that
allows the brain to choose which signals in the world to pay attention to and which to ignore.

dialogues, the Cratylus. Controversies which have been going on for literally ages tend to behave in a
characteristic fashion. They lie dormant for a while, then break out fiercely. This particular issue
resurfaced in linguistics in 1959 when the linguist Noam Chomsky wrote a devastating and witty review
of Verbal Behavior, a book by the Harvard psychologist B.F. Skinner (Skinner 1957; Chomsky 1959). This
book claimed to 'explain' language as a set of habits gradually built up over the years. According to
Skinner, no complicated innate or mental mechanisms are needed. All that is necessary is the systematic
observation of the events in the external world which prompt the speaker to utter sounds.
Answer:
This question of whether language is partly due to nature or wholly due to learning or nurture is often
referred to as the nature-nurture controversy, because this issue resurfaced in linguistics when the
linguist Noam Chomsky wrote a devastating and witty review of Verbal Behavior, while Skinner’s book
claimed to 'explain' language as a set of habits gradually built up over the years.

they are interchangeable. You need to plan and coordinate their movements, certainly, but they all move
at the same pace, on parallel paths. In chess, each type of piece moves in a different way, and you can’t
play if you don’t know how each piece moves. More important, you won’t win if you don’t think carefully
about how you move the pieces. Great managers know and value the unique abilities and even the
eccentricities of their employees, and they learn how best to integrate them into a coordinated plan of
attack. This is the exact opposite of what great leaders do. Great leaders discover what is universal and
capitalize on it. Their job is to rally people toward a better future. Leaders can succeed in this only when
they can cut through differences of race, sex, age, nationality, and personality and, using stories and
celebrating heroes, tap into those very few needs we all share. The job of a manager, meanwhile, is to
turn one person’s particular talent into performance. Managers will succeed only when they can identify
and deploy the differences among people, challenging each employee to excel in his or her own way.
This doesn’t mean a leader can’t be a manager or vice versa. But to excel at one or both, you must be
aware of the very different skills each role requires.
Answer:
In my research, I’ve found that great managers discover what is unique about each person and then
capitalize on it; great managers know and value the unique abilities of their employees, and they learn
how best to integrate them into a coordinated plan of attack, while great leaders discover what is
universal and capitalize on it, which means that you must be aware of the very different skills each role

22. Legume
Original:
Gardeners can feed their families and enrich the soil by growing legumes, such as green beans,
soybeans, lentils and peas. Legume roots produce their own nitrogen, which is a major fertilizer nutrient
needed by all plants for growth. Nitrogen is produced in nodules that form on the roots of legumes,
which contain Rhizobium bacteria. The bacteria take nitrogen from the air and convert it into a form the
plants can use. When legumes are pulled up in the fall, excess nitrogen from the nodules is left in the
soil. The excess organic nitrogen can be used by other plants the following growing season. It's
considered organic nitrogen because it was produced naturally, making green beans or peas great
rotational crops in an organic crop production system. Organic growers prefer organic nitrogen because
of its natural origins and because it breaks down slowly in the soil, thus slowly feeding plants throughout
the growing season. Synthetic nitrogen fertilizers tend to release nitrogen quickly and are harsher on the
environment. Synthetic nitrogen fertilizers are generally applied in split applications during the season to
mimic the slow release of organic nitrogen sources. Each specific legume generally requires a specific
type of Rhizobium bacteria to produce nodules on their roots. Gardeners who have never grown green
beans before can purchase small bags of inoculum or bacteria from most popular vegetable seed
catalogs. Before planting beans, open the package and pour in the dust-like bacteria among the seed.
Shake the package and then plant. Nodules will form on the roots as they develop. The bacteria will
remain in the soil, making it unnecessary to inoculate the seed next year. Do not apply extra nitrogen
fertilizer to bean crops. Doing so makes bacteria in the nodules lazy, encouraging them to stop
producing their own nitrogen. Legumes that are particularly popular in the home vegetable garden
include lima beans, peas, edible soybeans, lentils and fava beans. In a recent survey, 44 percent of
gardeners trained through New Mexico State University's Master Gardener Program said they grew
green beans and other legumes in their home gardens. When planting, be sure to purchase appropriate
strains of Rhizobium bacteria for each type of legume.

Assessment is a central process in education and a bridge between teaching and learning as many

point. Try to resist the impulse to waffle at the end of your sentence by trailing off into qualifying
clauses. It might be worth relocating the clause to the beginning of the sentence or losing it altogether if
you feel that it adds little to its meaning. Your sentences might be the most grammatically perfect in the
world, but still, cause your writing to sound wrong if you have misjudged its tone. A colloquial style,
which uses slang and exclamations, is an inappropriately chatty tone for an essay. However, style can be
equally jarring if your vocabulary is too formal or ambitious for its context. It is much more impressive to
make complicated points using simple language and grammar.
Answer:
Reviewing your work by reading it aloud can help to identify the woolliest areas, including cluttering a
sentence with too many complicated words, which can prevent its meaning from being understood
because direct words enable you to control what you are saying, and your sentences might be the most

are discarded. Vast amounts of these end up in the sea, through inadequate waste disposal systems and
sewage outfall. Another growing source is microbeads, tiny particles of hard plastics that are used in
cosmetics, for instance as an abrasive in modern skin cleaners. These easily enter waterways as they are
washed off as they are used, flushed down drains and forgotten, but can last for decades in our oceans.
The impact of these materials has been hard to measure, despite being a growing source of concern.
Small particles of plastics have been found in seabirds, fish and whales, which swallow the materials but
cannot digest them, leading to a build-up in their digestive tracts. For the first time, scientists have
demonstrated that fish exposed to such materials during their development show stunted growth and
increased mortality rates, as well as changed behavior that could endanger their survival.
Answer:
Fish are being killed and prevented from reaching maturity, by the litter of plastic particles finding their
way into the world's oceans, as some young fish have been found to prefer tiny particles of plastic to
their natural food, effectively starving them before they can reproduce, which has been thought for
several years to be a peril for fish, with the impact of these materials hard to measure, despite being a

removed, it revealed an exact copy of the text—but in reverse. Since then, many copies or "facsimiles"
have been made using a variety of materials. Inevitably, the surface of the Stone accumulated many
layers of material left over from these activities, despite attempts to remove any residue. Once on
display, the grease from many thousands of human hands eager to touch the Stone added to the
problem. An opportunity for investigation and cleaning the Rosetta Stone arose when this famous object
was made the centerpiece of the Cracking Codes exhibition at The British Museum in 1999. When work
commenced to remove all but the original, ancient material, the stone was black with white lettering. As
treatment progressed, the different substances uncovered were analyzed. Grease from human handling,
a coating of carnauba wax from the early 1800s and printer's ink from 1799 were cleaned away using
cotton wool swabs and liniment of soap, white spirit, acetone and purified water. Finally, white paint in
the text, applied in 1981, which had been left in place until now as a protective coating, was removed
with cotton swabs and purified water. A small square at the bottom left corner of the face of the Stone
was left untouched to show the darkened wax and the white infill.
Answer:
Since the Rosetta Stone was discovered in 1799, the carved characters that covered its surface were
quickly copied, which leaves the surface of the Stone accumulated many layers of material left over from

to ride in. However, as cars fuelled by petrol increased in importance, electric cars declined. The
situation became such that electric vehicles were only used for certain specific purposes - as fork-lift
trucks, ambulances and urban delivery vehicles, for example. Although electricity declined in use in road
vehicles, it steadily grew in importance as a means of powering trains. Switzerland, for example, was
quick to develop an electrified train system, encouraged in this no doubt by the fact that it had no coal
or oil resources of its own. Nowadays there is renewed interest in electricity as a means of powering
road vehicles. Why is this the case? Well, undoubtedly economic reasons are of considerable
importance. The cost of oil has risen so sharply that there is a strong financial imperative to look for an
alternative. However, there are also environmental motivations. Emissions from cars are blamed in large
part for - among other things – the destruction of the ozone layer and the resultant rise in temperatures
in the polar regions. A desire not to let things get any worse is also encouraging research into designing
effective electric transport.

Although electric cars were actually more popular than cars with an internal combustion engine as they

Diasporas – communities which live outside, but maintain links with their homelands – are getting larger,
thicker and stronger. They are the human face of globalisation. Diaspora consciousness is on the rise:
diasporas are becoming more interested in their origins, and organising themselves more effectively;
homelands are revising their opinions of their diasporas as the stigma attached to emigration declines,
and stepping up their engagement efforts; meanwhile, host countries are witnessing more assertive
diasporic groups within their own national communities, worrying about fifth columns and foreign
lobbies, and suffering outbreaks of ‘diaspora phobia’. This trend is the result of five factors, all of them
connected with globalisation: the growth in international migration; the revolution in transport and
communications technology, which is quickening the pace of diasporas’ interactions with their
homelands; a reaction against global homogenised culture, which is leading people to rethink their
identities; the end of the Cold War, which increased the salience of ethnicity and nationalism and
created new space in which diasporas can operate; and policy changes by national governments on
issues such as dual citizenship and multiculturalism, which are enabling people to lead transnational lives.
Diasporas such as those attaching to China, India, Russia and Mexico are already big, but they will
continue to grow; the migration flows which feed them are likely to widen and quicken in the future.

Scientists believe they may have found a way to prevent complications that can arise following cataract
surgery, the world’s leading cause of blindness. Detailing why complications can occur after surgery,
researchers from the University of East Anglia (UEA) explained that while cataract surgery works well to
restore vision, a few natural lens cells always remain after the procedure. Over time, the eye’s wound-
healing response leads these cells to spread across the underside of the artificial lens, which interferes
with vision, causing what’s known as ‘posterior capsule opacification’ or secondary cataract. UEA’s
School of Biological Sciences academic, Dr. Michael Wormstone, who led the study, said: “Secondary
visual loss responds well to treatment with laser surgery. But as life expectancy increases, the problems
of cataract and posterior capsule opacification will become even greater in terms of both patient well
being and economic burden. It’s essential that we find better ways to manage the condition in future.”
As a result, researchers are designing new artificial lenses that can be placed into a capsular bag that
stays open, instead of shrink-wrapping closed, which currently occurs. It is believed that, through the
new approach, fluid in the eye can flow around the artificial lens, therefore diluting and washing away
the cell-signaling molecules that encourage cell re-growth.
Answer:
Complications following cataract surgery are the world’s leading cause of blindness because it will cause
secondary cataract which will become even greater in terms of patients’ wellbeing and economic burden
as life expectancy increases, but researchers are designing new artificial lenses that are proved to be
able to prevent complications following cataract surgery.

Clean water was very important to the Romans. Cities, towns and forts were built near springs. However,
as Roman cities and towns grew, they needed to bring in water from further afield . As the population
grew, so did the need for clean water. Trying to shift large volumes of water underground in pipes was
not possible as lead pipes would be too weak and bronze pipes would be too expensive. The Romans
could not make cast iron pipes as the techniques for doing this were not known to them. If water could
not be brought via pipes, the Romans decided to bring it overland in what were conduits. When the water
got to the city, it was fed off into smaller bronze or ceramic pipes. To get the water to flow at an even
(and slow) pace, conduits were built on a slight slope. Valleys were crossed by using aqueducts. One of
the most famous of these is the Pont du Gard aqueduct at Nimes in southern France. Where possible,
the Romans did take water through tunnels but the hills needed to be relatively small for this to be
successful.

56. Conservationists
Conservationists have long debated whether the koala should go on the Australian national threatened
species list. While the koala is clearly in trouble in some parts of the country – in Queensland, for
example, high numbers are afflicted by disease – in other parts such as Victoria and South Australia the
problem is not that koala populations are falling , but that they have grown to the point where they are
almost too numerous. For a species to be classed as vulnerable, its population must have decreased by
more than 30 percent over the last three generations or 10 years. The problem is that when such a
stipulation is applied to koalas, the Victorian boom offsets the Queensland bust, and the species stays
off the list. This has repercussions because northern koalas are different to southern ones. They are
smaller, for example, and they contain a genetic variation not represented in the South. For this reason ,
a split listing has been devised koalas from New South Wales, the ACT and Queensland are now
officially 'Vulnerable'; those from Victoria and South Australia are not considered threatened.

59. Poetry
Throughout history poetry has often been created to celebrate a wedding. This article will examine the
ways in which this has happened at different periods of time and in many widely differing societies. It will
look at some examples of wedding poems from a range of eras and cultures, and will set them in their
specific context, drawing out the particular features that reflect that context. Other writers on this topic
have tended to focus on more personal wedding poems, those dedicated to the bride or the groom.
Here, however, the intention is to consider poems that were written with more of a social purpose in
mind.

60. Cheating
Although not written about extensively, a few individuals have considered the concept and act of
cheating in history as well as contemporary culture. J. Barton Bowyer writes that cheating 'is the
advantageous distortion of perceived reality. The advantage falls to the cheater because the cheated
person misperceives what is assumed to be the real world'. The cheater is taking advantage of a person,
a situation, or both . Cheating also involves 'distortion of perceived reality' or what others call
'deception'. Deception can involve hiding the 'true' reality or 'showing' reality in a way intended to
deceive others.

problematic. Throughout the chapter, the names of a few scholars will frequently reappear. These
scholars are most assertively critiqued here not because their work is particularly problematic but, on the
contrary, because they have produced the most comprehensive and sophisticated studies of Japanese
animation and/or comics. Their works have become seminal texts in the academic study of Japanese
popular culture in general and have greatly contributed to our understanding of its influence in the U.S.
context. The chapter’s deconstruction of these scholars’ characterization of global processes is offered
in an effort to illustrate the productive potential of a more translocal approach. It does not invalidate
their otherwise positive contributions to the field of Japanese studies.

68. PIE
No matter whether you speak English or Urdu, Waloon or Waziri, Portuguese or Persian, the roots of
your language are the same. Proto-Indo-European (PIE) is the mother tongue — shared by several
hundred contemporary languages, as well as many now extinct, and spoken by people who lived from
about 6,000 to 3,500 BC on the steppes to the north of the Caspian Sea. They left no written texts
and although historical linguists have, since the 19th century, painstakingly reconstructed the language
from daughter languages, the question of how it actually sounded was assumed to be permanently out
of reach. Now, researchers at the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford have developed a sound-based
method to move back through the family tree of languages that stem from PIE. They can simulate how
certain words would have sounded when they were spoken 8,000 years ago. Remarkably, at the heart of
the technology is the statistics of shape. 'Sounds have shape,' explains Professor John Aston, from
Cambridge's Statistical Laboratory. 'As a word is uttered it vibrates air, and the shape of this soundwave
can be measured and turned into a series of numbers. Once we have these stats, and the stats of
another spoken word, we can start asking how similar they are and what it would take to shift from one
to another.'

69. Drones
Antarctic plants can be important indicators of subtle changes in environmental conditions, including
climate change. Traditional ground-based assessments of vegetation health are, however, not ideal in
Antarctica, as they can destroy the vegetation and are physically demanding in the harsh weather
conditions. Co-author Professor Sharon Robinson from UOW’s School of Biological Sciences said the
study found drone-based monitoring of vegetation health produced similar results to traditional
techniques, but with much greater efficiency and with no damage to the vegetation. “Drones are a
powerful tool for monitoring fragile Antarctic vegetation,” Professor Robinson said. “They could be used
to provide timely warnings about specific environmental stress events, as well as monitoring the longer-
term impacts of climate change. “These methods could also be adapted to monitor the health of other
small-stature, patchy plant communities, including in alpine or desert regions.” The researchers found
that drones equipped with sensors were able to detect vegetation health indicators more accurately than
satellite imagery. Mosses are one of the key Antarctic vegetation types that need to be monitored.
However, they tend to occur in patches among rocks, ice and soil, making it important that the imagery
used to assess their health is as accurate and spatially detailed as possible.

Two decades ago, Kashmiri houseboat-owners rubbed their hands every spring at the prospect of the
annual influx of tourists . From May to October, the hyacinth-choked waters of Dal Lake saw flotillas of
vividly painted Shikaras carrying Indian families, boho westerners, young travellers and wide-eyed
Japanese. Carpet-sellers honed their skills, as did purveyors of anything remotely embroidered while the
house boats initiated by the British Raj provided unusual accommodation. Then, in 1989, separatist and
Islamist militancy attacked and everything changed. Hindus and countless Kashmiri business people
bolted, at least 35,000 people were killed in a decade, the lake stagnated, and the houseboats rotted.

More than simply putting flowers in a container , Ikebana is a disciplined art form in which nature and
humanity are brought together. Contrary to the idea of a particolored or multicolored arrangement of
blossoms, Ikebana often emphasizes other areas of the plant , such as its stems and leaves, and puts
emphasis on shape, line, and form. Though Ikebana is an expression of creativity, certain rules govern its
form. The artist's intention is shown through a piece's color combinations, natural shapes, graceful lines,
and the implied meaning of the arrangement.

84. Marshmallow
They call it the "marshmallow test." A four- to-six-year-old-child sits alone in a room at a table facing
a marshmallow on a plate. The child is told: "If you don't eat this treat for 15 minutes you can have both
it and a second one." Kids on average wait for five or six minutes before eating the marshmallow.
The longer a child can resist the temptation has been correlated with higher general competency later in
life. Now a study shows that ability to resist temptation isn't strictly innate -- it's aIso highly influenced
by environment.

Omniscience may be a foible of men, but it is not so of books. Knowledge, as Johnson said, is of
two kinds , you may know a thing yourself, and you may know where to find it. Now the amount which
you may actually know yourself must, at its best, be limited, but what you may know of the sources of
information may, with proper training, become almost boundless. And here come the value and use of
reference books-the working of one book in connection with another-and applying your
own intelligence to both. By this means we get as near to that omniscient volume which tells everything
as ever we shall get, and although the single volume or work which tells everything does not exist, there
is a vast number of reference books in existence, a knowledge and proper use of which is essential to
every intelligent person. Necessary as I believe reference books to be, they can easily be made to
be contributory to idleness, and too mechanical a use should not be made of them.

87. Psychology
Psychology as a subject of study has largely developed in the West since the late nineteenth century.
During this period there has been an emphasis on scientific thinking. Because of this, there have been
many scientific studies in psychology which explore different aspects of human nature. These include
studies into how biology (physical factors) influences human experience, how people use
their senses (touch, taste, smell, sight and hearing) to get to know the world, how people develop, why
people behave in certain ways, how memory works, how people develop language, how people
understand and think about the world, what motivates people, why people have emotions and how
personality develops. These scientific investigations all contribute to an understanding of human nature.
What do we mean by the practical applications of these studies? An understanding of psychology is
useful in many different areas in life, such as education, the workplace, social services and medicine.
This means that people who have knowledge of psychology can use or apply that knowledge in areas
such as the ones listed above.

Some students say that they need complete quiet to read and study. Others study best in a crowded,
noisy room because the noise actually helps them concentrate. Some students like quiet music playing;
others do not. The point is, you should know the level of noise that is optimal for your own studying.
However, one general rule for all students is that the television seems to be more of a distraction than
music or other background noise, so leave the TV off when you are reading or studying. Also , don't let

which promises to continue to do so. While there is a little doubt that cultural studies are coming to be
widely recognized as an important and distinctive field of study, it does seem to encompass a potentially
enormous area. This is because the term 'culture' has a complex history and range of usages, which have
provided a legitimate focus of inquiry for several academic disciplines.

96. Retirement
For a start, we need to change our concept of 'retirement', and we need to change mind-sets arising
from earlier government policy which, in the face of high unemployment levels, encouraged mature
workers to take early retirement. Today, government encourages them to delay their retirement. We now
need to think of retirement as a phased process, where mature age workers gradually reduce their hours,
and where they have considerable flexibility in how they combine their work and non work time. We also
need to recognise the broader change that is occurring in how people work, learn, and live. Increasingly
we are moving away from a linear relationship between education, training, work, and retirement, as
people move in and out of jobs, careers, caregiving, study, and leisure. Employers of choice remove
the barriers between the different segments of people's lives, by creating flexible conditions of work and
a range of leave entitlements. They take an individualised approach to workforce planning and
development so that the needs of employers and employees can be met simultaneously . This approach
supports the different transitions that occur across the life course - for example, school to work,
becoming a parent, becoming responsible for the care of older relatives, and moving from work to
retirement.

and successful machines and processes. The latest theories inspired greater invention, and more
technology encouraged theoretical scientists to make further discoveries in medicine, biology,
mechanics, physics, and chemistry. By 1800, the new machines had brought revolutionary changes to the
workplace, transportation and communications, and eventually to the home. Some of these inventions
simply made it easier to produce things on a large scale such as textile machines and
foundries, which produced large quantities of cloth and metal objects quickly and cheaply. But some
inventions brought completely new possibilities such as the first batteries, steamboats, and locomotives.
It would take decades for some of these inventions to make a big impact on the world. Yet their
creation, and the sheer amount of imagination and risk-taking involved, marked the beginning of a
modern, global, technologically based economy of the kind that we live in today.

Most important of all is the fact that for each new ballet-pantomime created at the Paris Opera during
the July Monarchy, a new score was produced. The reason for this is simple: these ballet-pantomimes
told stories — elaborate ones — and music was considered an indispensable tool in getting them across
to the audience. Therefore , music had to be newly created to fit each story. Music tailor-made for each
new ballet-pantomime, however, was only one weapon in the Opera's explanatory arsenal. Another was
the ballet-pantomime libretto, a printed booklet of fifteen to forty pages in length, which was sold in the
Operas lobby (like the opera libretto), and which laid out the plot in painstaking detail, scene by scene.
Critics also took it upon themselves to recount the plots (of both ballet-pantomimes and operas) in
their reviews of premieres. So did the publishers of souvenir albums, which also featured pictures of
famous performers and of scenes from favorite ballet-pantomimes and operas.

Paris is very old—there has been a settlement there for at least 6000 years and its shape has been
determined in part by the River Seine, and in part by the edicts of France’s rulers. But the great
boulevards we admire today are relatively new, and were constructed to prevent any more
barricades being created by the rebellious population; that work was carried out in the middle 19th
century. The earlier Paris had been in part a maze of narrow streets and alleyways. But you can imagine
that the work was not only highly expensive, but caused great distress among the half a million or so
residents whose houses were simply razed, and whose neighbourhoods disappeared. What is done
cannot usually be undone, especially when buildings are torn down .

115. Pidgins
Pidgins are languages that are born after contact between at least two languages. As many pidgins
developed during the period of empire and international trade, one of the language parents was
frequently a European language such as French or English, and the other language parent was the
language of the people with whom the Europeans were trading or whom they were colonising. Usually
one of the languages provided the majority of vocabulary items and the other provided the grammatical
structure. When pidgins become learned as a mother tongue, they become known as creoles. I am not
going to discuss pidgins and creoles and contact languages as such in this book in any depth .

The APS supports the development of an Australian curriculum for psychological science. The APS
Division of Psychological Research, Education and Training, in consultation with teacher and curriculum
representatives from every State and Territory in Australia, develops a proposed framework for senior
secondary school studies in psychological science. This framework is modeled on the current senior
science curricula that were developed and published by the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and
Reporting Authority. The APS hopes that this framework will facilitate a dialogue between educators and
their local curriculum authority, with the aim of working towards a more consistent approach to the
teaching of psychological science at secondary school level and optimizing the preparation for students
going on to undergraduate psychology studies at university, as well as the effective use of psychological
principles in everyday life.

127. Computer
The purpose of this paper is to consider the claim, often made, that computer simulation exercises
provide an excellent source of speaking practice. In so doing I shall first consider the properties of
computer simulations from a theoretical point of view , then describe the experience of using a
particular simulation with a general EFL class. On the basis of this experience, and of some very
straightforward pedagogical considerations, I shall argue that the claim is justified, subject to a very
important caveat: computer simulations can form the basis of excellent speaking exercises, provided you
do not expect the computer to do all the work. Put in another way, many computer simulations
only attain their full potential as language exercises if they are integrated into a larger, planned, teacher-
managed activity.

The Classic era of Mayan civilisation came to an end around 900 AD. Why this happened is unclear; the

132. Snails
Snails are not traditionally known for quick thinking, but new research shows they can make complex
decisions using just two brain cells in findings that could help engineers design more efficient robots.
Scientists at the University of Sussex attached electrodes to the heads of freshwater snails as they
searched for lettuce. They found that just one cell was used by the mollusc to tell if it was hungry or not,
while another let it know when food was present. Foodsearching is an example of goal-directed
behavior, during which an animal must integrate information about both its external environment and
internal state while using as little energy as possible. Lead researcher Professor George Kemenes, say
"This will eventually help us design the 'brain' of robots based on the principle of using
the fewest possible components necessary to perform complex tasks." What goes on in our brains when
we make complex behavioral decisions and carry them out is poorly understood." Our study reveals for
the first time how just two neurons can create a mechanism in an animal's brain which drives and
optimizes complex decision-making tasks.

One distinguishing feature of business is its economic character. In the world of business, we interact
with each other not as family members, friends, or neighbors, but as buyers and sellers , employers and
employees, and the like. Trading, for example, is often accompanied by hard bargaining, in which both
sides conceal their full hand and perhaps engage in some bluffing. And a skilled salesperson is
well- versed in the art of arousing a customer's attention (sometimes by a bit of puffery) to clinch the
sale. Still, there is an "ethics of trading" that prohibits the use of false or deceptive claims and tricks
such as "bait-and-switch" advertising.

Language comes so naturally to us that it is easy to forget what a strange and miraculous gift it is. All
over the world members of our species fashion their breath into hisses and hums and squeaks and pops
and listen to others do the same . We do this, of course, not only because we like the sounds but
because details of the sounds contain information about the intentions of the person making them. We,
humans, are fitted with a means of sharing our ideas, in all their unfathomable vastness. When we listen
to speech, we can be led to think thoughts that have never been thought before and that never would
have occurred to us on our own.

141. Allergies
What are allergies? Allergies are abnormal immune system reactions to things that are typically harmless
to most people. When you're allergic to something, your immune system mistakenly believes that this
substance is harmful to your body. Substances that cause allergic reactions- such as certain foods,
dust, plant pollen, or medicines- are known as allergens. In an attempt to protect the body, the immune
system produces IgE antibodies to that allergen. Those antibodies then cause certain cells in the body
to release chemicals into the bloodstream, one of which is histamine (pronounced: HIS-tuh-meen). The
histamine then acts on the eyes, nose, throat, lungs, skin, or gastrointestinal tract and causes the
symptoms of the allergic reaction. Future exposure to that same allergen will trigger
this antibody response again. This means that every time you come into contact with that allergen, you'll
have some form of allergy symptoms.

142. Classic
One of the most important things to remember is that "classic" does not necessarily translate to
"favorite" or "bestselling". Literature is instead considered classic when it has stood the test of time and
it stands the test of time when the artistic quality it expresses - be it an expression of life, truth, beauty,
or anything about the universal human condition - continues to be relevant and continues to inspire
emotional responses, no matter the period in which the work was written . Indeed, classic literature is
considered as such regardless of book sales or public popularity. That said, classic
literature usually merits lasting recognition - from critics and other people in a position to influence such
decisions - and has a universal appeal. And, while effective use of language as well as technical
excellence - is a must, not everything that is well-written or is characterized by technical achievement or
critical acclaim will automatically be considered a classic. Conversely, works that have not been
acknowledged or received positively by the writer's contemporaries or critics can still be considered as
classics.

143. Leadership
Leadership is all about being granted permission by others to lead their thinking. It is a bestowed moral
authority that gives the right to organize and direct the efforts of others. But moral authority does not
come from simply managing people effectively or communicating better or being able to motivate. It
comes from many sources , including being authentic and genuine, having integrity, and showing a real
and deep understanding of the business in question. All these factors build confidence. Leaders lose
moral authority for three reasons: they behave unethically , they become plagued by self-doubt and lose
their conviction, or they are blinded by power, lose self-awareness and thus lose connection with those
they lead as the context around them changes. Having said all this, it has to be assumed that if someone
becomes a leader, at some point they understood the difference between right and wrong. It is up to
them to abide by a moral code and up to us to ensure that the moment we suspect they do not, we fire
them or vote them out.

145. Dictatorship
Dictatorship is not a modern concept. Two thousand years ago, during the period of the Roman
Republic, exceptional powers were sometimes given by the Senate to individual dictators such as Sulla
and Julius Caesar. The intention was that the dictatorship would be temporary and that it would make
it possible to take swift and effective action to deal with an emergency. There is some disagreement as
how the term should be applied today. Should it be used in its original form to describe the temporary
exercise of emergency powers? Or can it now be applied in a much broader sense as common usage
suggests?

1) exclusive, individual, inclusive, special

146. Zika
Zika is more pernicious than public health officials anticipated. At present, it is circulating in more than
50 countries. And as of mid-May, seven countries or territories have reported cases of microcephaly or
other serious birth defects linked to the virus, which is transmitted by mosquito bite, blood transfusion or
sexual contact with an infected human. It can also be passed from mother to fetus during pregnancy.
Despite Zika's vast range over almost 70 years, there is little genetic difference among the various
strains, according to an analysis by researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston.
For example, the strain currently in the Americas and another previously detected in French Polynesia are
practically indistinguishable from each other (group in white box). If the virus has changed so little over
time, why is it rearing its ugly head now? Scientists are not sure yet, but new experimental work in
mosquitoes suggests that the virus was capable of causing detrimental health effects and outbreaks all
along. Therefore, it is unlikely mutations enabled new abilities. Instead, public health officials probably did
not understand Zika's potential because the virus circulated mostly in remote locations until recently.

In 2005, 109,000 new marriages were registered in Australia. This was equivalent to 5.4 marriages for
every 1,000 people in the population. This rate has been in an overall decrease since 1986 when there
were 7.2 marriages per 1,000 people. Over the same period, the crude divorce rate has remained
relatively unchanged with 2.6 divorces for every 1,000 people in 2005 and 2.5 divorces per 1,000 people
in 1986. The greatest annual number of divorces occurred in 2001 when there were 55,300 divorces
recorded. This peak has been followed by recent declines, with 52,400 divorces in 2005. As well as
marrying less, Australians are tending to marry later than in the past. In 1986, the median age at first
marriage for men was 25.6 years, increasing to 30.0 years in 2005. For women, the median age at first
marriage increased from 23.5 years in 1986 to 28.0 years in 2005. People are also divorcing at older
ages. In 2005, the median age of divorcing men was 43.5 years, compared with 37.5 years in 1986,
while for women the median age in 2005 was 40.8 compared with 34.7 years in 1986. The decline in
marriage rates and increase in divorce rates has led to a decrease in the level of the population that is
formally married. In 1986, 60% of the population aged 15 years and over were married; by 2001 this
proportion had decreased to 55%. Conversely , the proportion of the population aged 15 years and over
who were never married increased from 29% in 1986 to 32% in 2001.

148. DNA
DNA is a molecule that does two things. First, it acts as the hereditary material, which is passed down
from generation to generation. Second, it directs, to a considerable extent, the construction of our
bodies, telling our cells what kinds of molecules to make and guiding our development from a single-
celled zygote to a fully formed adult. These two things are of course connected . The DNA sequences
that construct the best bodies are more likely to get passed down to the next generation because well-
constructed bodies are more likely to survive and thus to reproduce. This is Darwin's theory of natural
selection stated in the language of DNA.

152. Viper
The horned desert viper's ability to hunt at night has always puzzled biologists. Though it lies with
its head buried in the sand, it can strike with great precision as soon as prey appears. Now, Young and
physicists Leo van Hemmen and Paul Friedel at the Technical University of Munich in Germany have
developed a model of the snake’s auditory system to explain how the snake 'hears' its prey without really
having the ears for it. Although the vipers have internal ears that can hear frequencies between 200 and
1000 hertz, it is not the sound of the mouse scurrying about that they are detecting. 'The snakes don't
have external eardrums ,' says van Hemmen. So unless the mouse wears boots and starts stamping, the
snake won’t hear it.'

164. Herbal
A herbal is a book of plants, describing their appearance, their properties and how they may be used for
preparing ointments and medicines. The medical use of plants is recorded on fragments of papyrus and
clay tablets from ancient Egypt, Samaria and China that date back 5,000 years but document traditions
far older still. Over 700 herbal remedies were detailed in the Papyrus Ebers, an Egyptian text written in
1500 BC. Around 65 BC, a Greek physician called Dioscorides wrote a herbal that was translated into
Latin and Arabic. Known as ‘De materia medica’, it became the most influential work on medicinal plants
in both Christian and Islamic worlds until the late 17th century. An illustrated manuscript copy of the text
made in Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul) survives from the sixth century. The first printed herbals
date from the dawn of European printing in the 1480s. They provided valuable information for
apothecaries, whose job was to make the pills and potions prescribed by physicians. In the next century,
landmark herbals were produced in England by William Turner, considered to be the father of British
botany, and John Gerard, whose illustrations would inspire the floral fabric, wallpaper and tile designs of

165. Anesthetics
Before effective anaesthetics, surgery was very crude and very painful. Before 1800, alcohol and opium
had little success in easing pain during operations. Laughing gas was used in 1844 in dentistry in the
USA, but failed to ease all pain and patients remained conscious. Ether (used from 1846) made patients
totally unconscious and lasted a long time. However, it could make patients cough during operations and
sick afterwards. It was highly flammable and was transported in heavy glass bottles. Chloroform (used
from 1847) was very effective with few side effects. However, it was difficult to get the dose right and
could kill some people because of the effect on their heart. An inhaler helped to regulate the dosage.

166. Hairstyles
With their punk hairstyles and bright colors, marmosets and tamarins are among the most attractive
primates on earth. These fast-moving, lightweight animals live in the rainforests of South America. Their
small size makes it easy for them to dart about the trees, catching insects and small animals such as
lizards, frogs, and snails. Marmosets have another unusual food source - they use their chisel-like
incisor teeth to dig into tree bark and lap up the gummy sap that seeps out, leaving telltale, oval-shaped
holes in the branches when they have finished. But as vast tracts of rainforest are cleared for plantations
and cattle ranches, marmosets and tamarins are in serious danger of extinction.

169. Settlement
Over the last ten thousand years there seem to have been two separate and conflicting building
sentiments throughout the history of towns and cities. One is the desire to start again, for a variety of
reasons: an earthquake or a tidal wave may have demolished the settlement, or fire destroyed it, or the
new city marks a new political beginning. The other can be likened to the effect of a magnet: established
settlements attract people, who tend to come whether or not there is any planning for their arrival. The
clash between these two sentiments is evident in every established city unless its development has been
almost completely accidental or is lost in history. Incidentally, many settlements have been planned from
the beginning but, for a variety of reasons, no settlement followed the plan. A good example is
Currowan, on the Clyde River in New South Wales, which was surveyed in the second half of the 19th
century, in expectation that people would come to establish agriculture and a small port. But no one
came.

dialect is noted for its pronunciation of each letter and its strong "r" sounds. This Spanish was spoken in
Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and was brought to the Americas by the early colonists.
However, the Spanish of Madrid and of northern Spain, called Castilian, developed characteristics that
never reached the New World. These include the pronunciation of "ci" and "ce" as "th." In Madrid,
"gracias" (thank you) becomes "gratheas" (as opposed to "gras-see-as" in Latin America). Another
difference is the use of the word "vosotros" (you all, or you guys) as the informal form of "ustedes" in
Spain. Castilian sounds to Latin Americans much like British English sounds to US residents.

176. Impressionist
Impressionism was a nineteenth century art movement that began as a loose association of Paris-based
artists who started publicly exhibiting their art in the 1860s. Characteristics of Impressionist painting
include visible brush strokes, light colors, open composition, emphasis on light in its changing qualities
(often accentuating the effects of the passage of time), ordinary subject matter, and unusual visual
angles. The name of the movement is derived from Claude Monet's Impression, Sunrise (Impression,
soleil levant). Critic Louis Leroy inadvertently coined the term in a satiric review published in Le
Charivari. Radicals in their time, early Impressionists broke the rules of academic painting. They began by
giving colors, freely brushed, primacy over line, drawing inspiration from the work of painters such as
Eugene Delacroix. They also took the act of painting out of the studio and into the world. Previously, not
only still-lives and portraits, but also landscapes had been painted indoors, but the Impressionists found
that they could capture the momentary and transient effects of sunlight by painting air (in plain air).

177. Pinker
In a sequence of bestsellers, including The Language Instinct and How the Mind Works, Pinker has
argued the swathes of our mental, social and emotional lives may have originated as evolutionary
adaptations, well suited to the lives our ancestors eked out on the Pleistocene savannah. Sometimes it
seems as if nothing is immune from being explained this way. Road rage, adultery, marriage, altruism,
our tendency to reward senior executives with corner offices on the top floor, and the smaller number of
women who become mechanical engineers — all may have their roots in natural selection, Pinker claims.
The controversial implications are obvious: that men and women might differ in their inborn abilities at
performing certain tasks, for example, or that parenting may have little influence on personality.

182. Brain
For decades, scientists have used an imaging technique called functional magnetic resonance imaging,
or fMRI, to chronicle the brain in action. But a study in the January 22nd issue of Nature suggests that
fMRI might show more than what the brain is doing—it might reveal what the brain's about to do. FMRI
studies assume that blood flow in the brain correlates with neuronal activity . Active brain cells
need nutrients , which are brought to the cells by freshly oxygenated blood. But in the new study,
scientists found that fMRI also detects increased blood flow in brain regions that aren't active—but that
may be in the near future. The researchers trained monkeys to perform a specific visual task. And they
found that, even when the animals were sitting in the dark waiting for the test to begin, fMRI
nevertheless revealed an increased blood flow to the monkeys' visual cortex. The study suggests that
fMRI data may be a lot more interesting than we thought. Scientists may be looking at their imaging data
in a way that's too simplistic. And fMRI may not be measuring exactly what we thought it did. What will
they think of next? Maybe fMRI can tell.

9. History of Sleep
Original:
September 2, 1752, was a great day in the history of sleep. That Wednesday evening, millions of British
subjects in England and the colonies went peacefully to sleep and did not wake up until twelve days
later. Behind this feat of narcoleptic prowess was not same revolutionary hypnotic technique or
miraculous pharmaceutical discovered in the West Indies. It was, rather, the British Calendar Act of 1751,
which declared the day after Wednesday 2nd to be Thursday 14th. Prior to that cataleptic September
evening, the official British calendar differed from that of continental Europe by eleven days—that is,
September 2 in London was September 13 in Paris, Lisbon, and Berlin. The discrepancy had sprung from
Britain's continued use of the Julian calendar, which had also been the official calendar of Europe from
its invention by Julius Caesar (after whom it was named) in 45 B.C. until the decree of Pope Gregory XIII
in 1582. Caesar's calendar, which consisted of eleven months of 30 or 31 days and a 28-day February
(extended to 29 days every fourth year), was actually quite accurate: it erred from the real solar calendar
by only 11.5 minutes a year. After centuries, though, even a small inaccuracy like this adds up. By the
sixteenth century, it had put the Julian calendar behind the solar one by 10 days. In Europe, in 1582,
Pope Gregory XIII ordered the advancement of the Julian calendar by 10 days and introduced a new
corrective device to curb further error: century years such as 1700 or 1800 would no longer be counted
as leap years, unless they were (like 1600 or 2000) divisible by 400.
Question:
What factors were involved in the disparity between the calendars of Britain and Europe in the 17th
century?
Options:
A) the provisions of the British Calendar Act of 1751
B) Britain's continued use of the Julian calendar
C) the accrual of very minor differences between the calendar used in Britain and real solar events
D) the failure to include years divisible by four as leap years
E) the decree of Pope Gregory XIII
F) revolutionary ideas which had emerged from the West Indies
G) Britain's use of a calendar consisting of twelve months rather than eleven

10. Andalucia
Original:
Here is a part of Spain's sun-baked Andalucia that is extraordinary not only because of its unspoiled
terrain and authentic Spanish traditions but also because of its caves. These are not dark, damp holes,
with dripping water and evil smells. They are residences, ancient Bronze Age dwellings now being
refurbished for hundreds of 21st century Spaniards. In Galera, the region's most important village, it's
estimated that there are at least 1,000 such habitations carved into its hillsides. We take old caves
renovate them, then sell them on, says Rob Oakley, office manager of leading developer Galera
enterprises. Our company was set up by someone who discovered the area of Galera when it was just a
tourist attraction 15 years ago and saw its potential. The ancient abodes are transformed from rough
caves into relatively luxurious homes, equipped out with amenities like electricity and sewage, phone
lines, running hot water, even internet connections.

11. Decision
Original:
By the laws of probability, most decisions made under pressure should be flawed ones, yet psychologists
have found that people routinely make correct judgments most of the time, even with limited information.
One of Gladwell's surprising points is that we can actually learn how to make better snap judgments, in
the same way that we can learn logical, deliberative thinking. But first we have to accept the idea that
thinking long and hard about something does not always deliver us better results, and that the brain
actually evolved to make us think on our feet.
Question:
Which of the following does the passage tell us about decision making?
Options:
A) The brain is designed to enable quick decision making.
B) Quick decision making can be improved.
C) Quick decision making routinely leads to error.
D) To make correct decisions we require all relevant information.

3) What is more, this number is expected to double in coming decades while the area of high-quality
reef is expected to halve.
4) In combination with the very real threat of climate change, which could lead to increased seawater
temperatures and ocean acidification, we start to arrive at some quite frightening scenarios.

6. Crab
Correct Order:
1) The last time you splurged on a live lobster for dinner, you might not have given any thought to how
much the little guy was going to suffer as he boiled to death.
2) Until recently many researchers believed the crustacean nervous system too primitive to process pain.
3) Scientists at Queen's University in Belfast now think that crustaceans may be more sensitive to pain
than previously thought.
4) And they found that crabs that experienced an electric shock when they hid under a safe, dark rock
would eventually learn to avoid the hiding place.

9. Darwin
Correct Order:
1) Charles Darwin was born on 12 February 1809 into a rich and powerful family.
2) His paternal grandfather was Erasmus Darwin, a famous scientist who came up with his own theory of
evolution, while his maternal grandfather was Josah Wedgwood, of pottery fame.
3) Despite this, for the first decades of his life Darwin failed to distinguish himself, first dropping out of
medical studies in Edinburgh because he hated the sight of blood, and subsequently entering Cambridge
to study for the profession of clergyman very much as second option.
4) Yet Darwin was gaining great skill as an amateur naturalist and it was this that allow him to seize the
opportunity presented when he was offered an unpaid position as scientist on board the Beacle, a naval
surveying ship bound for the farthest corners of the globe.
5) The five-year voyage was the making of Darwin, providing him with the wealth of observations of the
natural world that established him as one of the foremost scientists of his age and provided the raw
material for his revolutionary theory.

17. Meerkats
Correct Order:
1) Meerkats, a small group-living mongooses in southern Africa, have been so extensively studied and
filmed that we can follow individuals through their lives like characters in an animal soap opera.
2) The Kalahari Desert meerkats, Suricata Suricatta, have been followed over generations.
3) They are so habituated to humans that they will climb on and off weighing scales when a scientist
wants to weigh an animal.
4) It is remarkable that behavior, which at one time could only be observed by dedicated field workers, is
now readily available for all of us to see.
(APEUni Website / App RO #556)
20. Locomotion
Correct Order:
1) Researchers need to understand why different forms of locomotion evolved.
2) Long-held assumptions, such as the need for energy efficiency, have already been overturned.
3) For example, a mechanical ankle brace can improve the metabolic efficiency of human walking,
implying that walking is inefficient.
4) But variation of movement is important, too: such an ankle brace holds you back if you try to skip,
gallop or skitter.
5) Similarly, legged robots struggle to deploy different gaits, just as roboticists struggle to enumerate
them.
(APEUni Website / App RO #549)
21. Mandarin
Correct Order:
1) Mandarin is the most common language in the world as it is the official language of Mainland China,
Taiwan, and one of the official languages of Singapore.
2) Thus, Mandarin is commonly referred to as ‘Chinese’.
3) But in fact, it is just one of many Chinese languages.
4) Depending on the region, Chinese people also speak Wu, Hunanese, Jiangxinese, Hakka, Min, and
many other languages.
5) Even in one province, there can be multiple languages spoken. For example, in Fujian province, you
can hear Min, Fuzhounese, and Mandarin being spoken, each being very distinct from the other.
(APEUni Website / App RO #496)
24. Poincaré
Correct Order:
1) Poincaré had an especially interesting view of scientific induction.
2) Laws, he said, are not direct generalizations of experience; they aren’t mere summaries of the points
on the graph.
3) Rather, the scientist declares the law to be some interpolated curve that is more or less smooth and
29. Photogrammetry
Correct Order:
1) Photogrammetry involves taking hundreds of photos of an object at slightly different angles and
‘stitching’ them together to create an interactive digital 3D model.
2) The process is already being used by the University of Aberdeen’s anatomy department to create
digital models of organs and other body parts to aid teaching and learning for young doctors.
3) Now the same technology is being used to create virtual replicas of artifacts within the University’s
museum’s collections, including an ancient Egyptian mummified cat, prehistoric skulls and ancient Greek
pottery.
4) These artifacts are rarely handled as they are so fragile.
5) Photogrammetry lets the public and students get to see them close-up and in very high detail.

(APEUni Website / App RO #288)
36. O'Keeffe
Correct Order:
1) O'Keeffe never formally recorded her theories about art.
2) She did, however, leave a long trail of interviews and letters that reveal how she approached her
painting practice—and the rituals, experiences, and environments that inspired her.
3) Correspondence with her husband, photographer Alfred Stieglitz, in particular, offers a raw, honest
glimpse into O'Keeffe's creative mind.
4) The two exchanged 25,000 pages of letters between 1915 and 1946, during which time she found her
voice as an artist: first, through her flower paintings, and later, through landscapes and surrealistic still
lifes inspired by her mountainous, skull-studded surroundings in New Mexico.
(APEUni Website / App RO #250)
44. Nightinggale
Correct Order:
1) The data to be reported here come from a longitudinal study of the untutored acquisition of English as
a second language by a five-year-old Japanese girl whom we shall call Uguisu, nightingale in Japanese.
2) Her family came to the United States for a period of two years while her father was a visiting scholar
at Harvard, and they took residence in North Cambridge, a working-class neighborhood.
3) The children in that neighborhood were her primary source of language input.
4) Uguisu also attended public kindergarten for two hours every day, and later elementary school, but
with no tutoring in English syntax.

4) Due to the moon's weaker gravitational field, the same journey from the lunar surface would "only"
require a speed of 6,500mph (2.9km/s).
5) This is roughly one third of that necessary to reach the International Space Station from Earth.
(APEUni Website / App RO #217)
47. Pidgin
Correct Order:
1) In some areas, the standard chosen may be a variety that originally had no native speakers in the
country.
2) For example, in Papua New Guinea, a lot of official business is conducted in Tok Pisin.
3) This language is now used by over a million people, but it began many years earlier as a kind of
'contact' language called a pidgin.
4) A pidgin is a variety of a language (e.g. English) that developed for some practical purpose, such as
trading, among groups of people who had a lot of contact, but who did not know each other' s
languages.
(APEUni Website / App RO #216)
49. Ants
Correct Order:
1) It's often said that ants can predict impending rain and respond by changing their behavior.
2) Some people say that if you see ants building their mounds higher, or building them from different
materials, this might signal the coming of rain.
3) But is there any scientific evidence to support this piece of folk wisdom?
4) The short answer is "no", although it is a difficult question to answer partly because of the sheer
diversity of ants - there are 13,000 named species on the planet!
(APEUni Website / App RO #205)
55. Two-and-a-half(2.5升空⽓)
Correct Order:
1) To gauge optimism and pessimism, the researchers set up an experiment involving 22 calves.
2) Before they started the experiment, they trained the calves to understand which of their choices
would lead to a reward.
3) In the training, each calf entered a small pen and found a wall with five holes arranged in a horizontal
line, two-and-a-half feet apart.
4) The hole at one end contained milk from a bottle, while the hole at the opposite end contained only an
empty bottle and delivered a puff of air in calves' faces.
5) The calves learned quickly which side of the pen held the milk reward.
(APEUni Website / App RO #188)
56. EU Fishing
Correct Order:
1) The European Union has two big fish problems.
2) One is that, partly as a result of its failure to manage them properly, its own fisheries can no longer
meet European demand.
3) The other is that its governments won't confront their fishing lobbies and decommission all the
surplus boats.
4) The EU has tried to solve both problems by sending its fishermen to West Africa. Since 1979 it has
struck agreements with the government of Senegal, granting our fleets access to its waters.
5) As a result, Senegal's marine ecosystem has started to go the same way as ours.

59. Be Objective(保持客观)
Correct Order:
1) Experts especially journalists, inevitably find it difficult to be objective because of their culture
background.
2) Journalists tried their best not to be biased.
3) However, including every aspect of an issue is as easy as calling for every candidate to participate in
presidential debate.
4) Some aspects are not included in the reporting.
(APEUni Website / App RO #173)
63. Stereotype
Correct Order:
1) No man ever looks at the world with pristine eyes.
2) He sees it edited by a definite set of customs and institutions and ways of thinking.
3) Even in his philosophical probings he cannot go behind these stereotypes;
4) His very concepts of the true and the false will still have reference to his particular traditional
customs.

5) The fear of criticism from colleagues, friends and family is the main factor that obstructs a change in
their employment situation.

65. Pilot
Correct Order:
1) After finishing first in his pilot training class, Lindbergh took his first job as the chief pilot of an airmail
route operated by Robertson Aircraft Co. of Lambert Field in St. Louis, Missouri.
2) He flew the mail in a de Havilland DH-4 biplane to Springfield, Peoria and Chicago, Illinois.
3) During his tenure on the mail route, he was renowned for delivering the mail under any circumstances.
4) After a crash, he even salvaged stashes of mail from his burning aircraft and immediately phoned
Alexander Varney, Peoria's airport manager, to advise him to send a truck.
(APEUni Website / App RO #49)
69. Sojourner
Correct Order:
1) More recent missions to Mars include the hugely successful Mars Pathfinder, which landed a small
‘rover’ called Sojourner on the surface to explore a region where there may once have been life.
2) Sojourner has now been effectively switched off, but lasted almost twelve times its expected lifetime.
3) Similarly the lander, which imaged several areas around the landing site (dubbed the Carl Sagan
Memorial site) and took atmospheric measurements, lasted a good deal longer than expected.
4) The only unfortunate thing to have arisen from the mission is the naming of the rocks at the landing
site (including everything from Scooby Doo to Darth Vader).
(APEUni Website / App RO #29)
71. Mission
Correct Order:
1) Early in 1938, Mario de Andrade, the municipal secretary of culture here, dispatched a four- member
Folklore Research Mission to the northeastern hinterlands of Brazil on a similar mission.
2) The intention was to record as much music as possible as quickly as possible, before encroaching
influences like radio and cinema began transforming the region’s distinctive culture.
3) They recorded whoever and whatever seemed to be interesting: piano carriers, cowboys, beggars,
voodoo priests, quarry workers, fishermen, dance troupes and even children at play.
4) But the Brazilian mission’s collection ended up languishing in vaults here.
(APEUni Website / App RO #15)
72. Parties(派对)
Correct Order:
1) Although experts like journalists are expected to be unbiased they invariably share the system biases
of the disciplines and cultures in which they work.
2) Journalists try to be fair and objective by presenting all sides of a particular issue.
3) Practically speaking, however, it is about as easy to present all sides of an issue as it is to invite
candidates from all political parties to a presidential debate.
4) Some perspectives ultimately are not included.

each new ballet-pantomime, however, was only one weapon in the Opera's explanatory arsenal.
And another was the ballet-pantomime libretto, a printed booklet of fifteen to forty pages in length,
which was sold in the Operas lobby(like the opera libretto), and which laid out the plot in painstaking
detail, scene by scene. Critics also took it upon themselves to recount the plots (of both ballet-
pantomimes and operas) in their reviews of premieres. So did the publishers of souvenir albums, which

full-sized pieces by Haring. The paintings skyrocketed in price but this did not sit well with Haring's
philosophy. He believed that art, or at least his art, was for everyone. Soon, Haring opened a store which
he called the Pop Shop, which he hoped would attract a broad range of people. While somewhat

and orange. Overlying this basic order of color preference, however , are the responses of individuals,
which of course vary widely and may also be very powerful. Children are likely to have strong preferences
for some colors and aversions to others, but sometimes will not admit to them, since
outside factors may be influential in determining both color preferences and the way that they are
expressed or suppressed. Current fashions in clothes and accessories, gender-stereotyping and peer-
group pressure may all play a significant part. Boys in particular may be reluctant to admit to any strong
preferences for colors other than those of favorite football teams, because color awareness may be
regarded by their peer-group as feminine.

Affordable early years education and childcare potentially enables parents, particularly mothers, to be in
paid employment. International studies have found that countries with greater enrolment rates in publicly
funded or provided childcare also have higher maternal employment rates, although untangling causal
relationships is complex. From the point of view of the household, additional income, especially for the
less well-off, is itself associated with better outcomes for children, as child poverty has been shown to
be a key independent determinant of children's outcomes. And, from the point of view of the public
purse, as mothers enter employment they are likely to claim fewer benefits and to generate extra
revenues through income tax and national insurance.

Many famous geographers and non-geographers have attempted to define the discipline in a few short
words. The concept has also changed throughout the ages, making it difficult to create a concise ,
universal geography definition for such a dynamic and all-encompassing subject. After all, Earth is a big
place with many facets to study. It affects and is affected by the people who live there and use
its resources . But basically, geography is the study of the surface of Earth and the people who live
there, and all that encompasses.

reliant on the written word . Along with folk songs and folktales, this broad category of cultural forms
embraces all kinds of legends, riddles, jokes, proverbs, games, charms, omens, spells, and rituals,

excuse to add to the color and spectacle of the show, but dance is more effective when it forms an
integral part of the plot . An early example is Richard Rodgers On Your Toes(1936) in which the story
about classical ballet meeting the world of jazz enabled dance to be introduced in a way that enhances ,
rather than interrupts the drama.

Some students say that they need complete quiet to read and study. Others study best in a crowded,
noisy room because the noise actually helps them concentrate. Some students like quiet music
playing; others do not. The point is, you should know the level of noise that is optimal for your own
studying. However, one general rule for all students is that the television seems to be more of a
distraction than music or other background noise, so leave the TV off when you are reading or
studying. Also , don't let yourself become distracted by computer games, email, or Internet surfing.

The lightest of any solid element, lithium has, until now, played a modest role in industry. Silvery in color,
and softer than lead, it has been used mainly as an alloy of aluminum, a base for automobile grease, and

95. Investment
One city will start to attract the majority of public or private investment. This could be due
to natural advantage or political decisions. This, in turn, will stimulate further investment due to the
multiplier effect and significant rural-to-urban migration. The investment in this city will be at
the expense of other cities.

96. Paris
Paris is very old-- there has been a settlement there for at least 6,000 years and its shape has been
determined in part by the River Seine, and in part by the edicts of France' s rulers. But the great
boulevards we admire today are relatively new, and were constructed to prevent any more barricades
being created by the rebellious population; that work was carried out in the middle 19th century. The
earlier Paris had been in part a maze of narrow streets and alleyways. But you can imagine that the work
was not only highly expensive, but caused great distress among the half a million or so whose houses
were simply razed, and whose neighborhoods disappeared. What is done cannot usually be undone,
especially when buildings are torn down .

Why are moths fatally attracted to the light? One solution is the old glib theory that the moths are trying
to use the flame to navigate. This explanation does not tell us, however , why it is that in many species
only males are thus attracted, and in a few, only females. What's more , if moths need to navigate, they
must be from a migrating species. Yet most of the time such moths are not migrating. Indeed most
species do not migrate at all and thus have no need of navigation.

98. Revision
Timing is important for revision. Have you noticed that during the school day you get times when you
just don't care any longer? I don't mean the lessons you don't like, but the ones you find usually OK, but
on some occasions you just can't be bothered with it. You may have other things on your mind, be tired,
restless, or looking forward to what comes next. Whatever the reason, that particular lesson doesn't get
100 percent effort from you. The same is true of revision. Your mental and physical attitudes are
important. If you try to revise when you are tired or totally occupied with something else, your revision
will be inefficient and just about worthless. If you approach it feeling fresh, alert and happy, it will be so
much easier and you will learn more, faster. However, if you make no plans and just slip in a little bit of
revision when you feel like it, you probably won't do much revision! You need a revision timetable so you
don't keep putting it off .

104. Recruitment
Finding challenging or rewarding employment may mean retraining and moving from a stale or boring job
in order to find your passion and pursue it. The idea is to think long range and anticipate an active
lifestyle into later years --perhaps into one' s 80s or 90s. Being personally productive may now mean
anticipating retiring in stages. This might indicate going to an alternate plan should a current career end
by choice or economic change.

110. Viper
The horned desert viper's ability to hunt at night always has puzzled biologists. Though it lies with
its head buried in the sand, it can strike with great precision as soon as prey appears. Now, Young and
physicists Leo van Hemmen and Paul Friedel at the Technical University of Munich in Germany have
developed a computer model of the snake's auditory system to explain how the snake "hears" its prey
without really having the ears for it. Although the vipers have internal ears that can hear frequencies
between 200 and 1000 hertz, it is not the sound of the mouse scurrying about that they are detecting. "
The snakes don't have external eardrums ," says van Hemmen. " So unless the mouse wears boots and
starts stamping, the snake won't hear it."

116. Cheating
Although not written about extensively, a few individuals have considered the concept and act of
cheating in history as well as contemporary culture. Barton Bowyer writes that cheating "is the
advantageous distortion of perceived reality. The advantage falls to the cheater because the cheated
person misperceives what is assumed to be the real world". The cheater is taking advantage of a person,
a situation, or both . Cheating also involves the "distortion of perceived reality" or what others call
"deception". Deception can involve hiding the "true" reality or "showing" reality in a way intended to
deceive others.

117. McLuhan
McLuhan's preeminent theory was his idea that human history could be divided into four eras: the
acoustic age, the literary age, the print age and the electronic age. He outlined the concept in a 1962
book called The Gutenberg Galaxy, which was released just as the television was starting to become
popular. He predicted the world was entering the fourth, electronic age, which would be characterized by
a community of people brought together by technology. He called it the "global village", and said it would
be an age when everyone had access to the same information through technology. The "global village"
could be understood to be the internet.

Sharks killed four people and bit 58 others around the world in 2006, a comparatively dull year for
dangerous encounters between the two species, scientists said in their annual shark attack census on
Tuesday. Sharkbite numbers grew steadily over the last century as humans reproduced exponentially
and spent more time at the seashore. But the numbers have been stabilized over the past five years as
overfishing thinned the shark population near shore and swimmers got smarter about the risks of wading
into certain areas, Burgess said.

mother and child. In a lecture at the University of Melbourne, Richard Parncutt, an Australian-born
professor of systematic musicology, endorsed the idea that music originally spawned from 'motherese' -
the playful voices mothers adopt when speaking to infants and toddlers. As the theory goes, increased
human brain sizes caused by evolutionary changes occurring between one and 2,000,000 years ago
resulted in earlier births, more fragile infants and a critical need for stronger relationships between
mothers and their newborn babies. According to Parncutt, who is based at the University of Graz in
Austria, 'motherese' arose as a way to strengthen this maternal bond and to help ensure an infant's
survival.

137. Genius
Genius, in the popular conception, is inextricably tied up with precocity - doing something truly creative,
we're inclined to think, requires the freshness and exuberance and energy of youth. Orson Welles made
his masterpiece, "Citizen Kane," at twenty-five. Herman Melville wrote a book a year through his late
twenties, culminating, at age thirty-two, with "Moby-Dick." Mozart wrote his breakthrough Piano
Concerto No. 9 in E-Flat-Major at the age of twenty-one. In some creative forms, like lyric poetry,
the importance of precocity has hardened into an iron law. How old was T. S. Eliot when he wrote "The
Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" ("I grow old ... I grow old")? Twenty-three. "Poets peak young,"
the creativity researcher James Kaufman maintains. Mihály Csíkszentmihályi, the author of "Flow",
agrees: "The most creative lyric verse is believed to be that written by the young." According to the
Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner, a leading authority on creativity, "Lyric poetry is
a domain where talent is discovered early, burns brightly, and then peters out at an early age."

More than simply putting flowers in a container , ikebana is a disciplined art form in which nature and
humanity are brought together. Contrary to the idea of a particolored or multicolored arrangement of
blossoms, ikebana often emphasizes other areas of the plant , such as its stems and leaves, and puts
emphasis on shape, line, and form. Though ikebana is an expression of creativity, certain rules govern its
form.

140. Kashmiri
Two decades ago, Kashmiri houseboat-owners rubbed their hands every spring at the prospect of the
annual influx of tourists . From May to October, the hyacinth-choked waters of Dal Lake saw flotillas of
vividly painted Shikaras carrying Indian families, boho westerners, young travelers and wide-eyed
Japanese. Carpet-sellers honed their skills, as did purveyors of anything remotely embroidered while the
house boats initiated by the British Raj provided unusual accommodation. Then, in 1989, separatist and
Islamist militancy attacked and everything changed. Hindus and countless Kashmiri business people
bolted, at least 35,000 people were killed in a decade, the lake stagnated, and the houseboats rotted.

In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood,
that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and
steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The
most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports, called smart buildings,
the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake's vibrations. When ground shakes and the
building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new
designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.

2. Iceberg
Original:
B-15 broke off from the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica. It was the largest iceberg ever documented, with a
surface area of more than 4,200 square miles—more than twice the size of the state of Delaware. After
it started breaking up, the largest of its pieces, B-15a, drifted along the coast of Antarctica, lingered on
a shallow seamount, and collided with an ice tongue, before running aground and breaking again. Late in
2007, the largest remaining chunk floated out into the South Pacific where, in the warmer water, it
began to disintegrate. For the whole of the next year, the ocean was noisier than usual. All the way up
past the equator, 4,350 miles or so away from where B-15a broke apart, hydrophones that scientists
from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) had suspended underwater were
picking up strange signals. Another set of hydrophones, this one in the Juan Fernández Islands, off the
coast of Chile, picked up the noise, too, even louder. When the scientists used the two sets of data to
determine the source of the noise, they found the most likely culprits: B-15a and C-19a, another giant
iceberg. Twenty years ago, not so long before B-15 broke off from Antarctica, “we didn’t even know
that icebergs made noise,” says Haru Matsumoto, an ocean engineer at NOAA who has studied these
sounds. But in the past few years, scientists have started to learn to distinguish the eerie, haunting
sounds of iceberg life—ice cracking, icebergs grinding against each other, an iceberg grounding on the
seafloor—and measure the extent to which those sounds contribute to the noise of the ocean. While
they’re just now learning to listen, the sounds of ice could help them understand the behavior and
breakup of icebergs and ice shelves as the poles warm up.
Question:
Where did the largest piece off from B-15 eventually go?
Options:
A) Seafloor
B) Antarctica
C) Chile
D) South Pacific

3. Social Scientists
Original:
Social scientists use particular methods to gather qualitative evidence, from observation to interview,
but they also use autobiographical accounts, journalism, and other documentary material to flesh out and
add meaning to statistics. As with reading numbers, reading textual evidence requires us to practice, to
set time aside to learn how to do it, and to understand the conventions of writing which operate in the
different forms of writing we encounter. One of the main problems with reading textual evidence,
though, is that, unlike the relationship most of us have with numbers where we may use them at a pretty
basic level, most of us are, if anything, over-familiar with words. When we want to understand their value
as social science evidence we need to forget how familiar we are with first person accounts and
everyday speech - for example, in newspapers, magazines, and books - and learn a different approach
to them. Social scientists use observation, interviews and even print journalism as evidence for the
claims they make. They may collect evidence through questionnaires with pre-set questions and by
open-ended interviews which allow respondents to speak for themselves. They may observe social
relations explicitly as social scientists or may participate themselves in a particular community to gain
'inside' information. Social scientists also draw on print journalism on occasion and may use the same
sources, for example official statistics, and the work of other social scientists to support their claims. We
need to remember, though, that journalists do not need to present the same rigorous referencing and
support for their claims as social scientists are required to do. Most importantly, newspaper and
magazine articles are written under commercial pressures; for example they must help to sell the
newspaper by being deliberately provocative, or by reflecting the dominant views of its readers.
Question:
According to this passage, what do social scientists use written sources to do?
Options:
A) Formulating questionnaires and interview questions.
B) Advising them on how to collect qualitative evidence.
C) Adding information to other data they have collected.
D) Change their understanding of numbers.

4. John Robertson
Original:
When he was awarded an Honorary Degree by the University of Newcastle, even John Robertson himself
must surely have looked back in wonder at his astonishing rise to success. The year was 1910, and those
assembled were to hear not only of his generosity to the University, which enabled it to contribute to the
pioneering research into tropical diseases being carried out at that time, but also of his humanitarian
work in southern Africa, where he was ahead of his time in improving the working conditions of local
mine workers. To those who knew John in his youth, it will have come as no surprise to hear of his
success. He was now enjoying the rewards of the fierce determination, desire to succeed and
extraordinary ability to acquire knowledge, which they had noticed in the young man.
Question:
What does the reader of this text learn about John Robertson?
Options:
A) He was born in Africa.
B) His abilities were evident at a young age.
C) He studied medicine.
D) He completed his degree in 1910.

5. Linguistic Turn
Original:
In recent years history has experienced a 'linguistic turn' while literary studies have undergone a
'historical turn', making this combination of subjects stronger than ever. Knowledge of the past
contextualises literary artefacts, while the forensic literary skills of the linguist are vital for interrogating
historical documents. Historians have to be aware of genre, plot and rhetorical techniques in the creation
both of their sources and their own arguments, while linguists need to appreciate the social and political
concerns that are woven into literary works. This degree brings these two skill sets together.
Question:
What is the aim of the author?
Options:
A) To introduce a new academic subject to us.
B) To distinguish the two subjects in terms of academic importance.
C) To criticize the combination of the two subjects.
D) To foresee a new academic trend.

now. But it's maturing as, among other things, a place for journalism. In a sense, the Internet allows you
to tell stories better than in a newspaper or on television. For this reason, you can do it all online: you
can have the written word, you can have still photographs, you can have video. You can link and kind of
connect to the other journalism that has been done on a given topic. So it's not like you're in a vacuum.
The Internet has had a negative impact on these papers. However, John Fleck, who is a columnist for the
Albuquerque Journal and also has his own blog, says that he doesn't think that's entirely the case. It
really makes me more efficient as a journalist in terms of information gathering, confirmation, helping me
get the background necessary to write a story. So it's really good for that.

for a book or article to read, he or she will decide from the very beginning whether this work is worth
attention. If you want to wow your teacher, polish the introduction, especially the first couple of
sentences. Add an essay hook–something interesting, funny, shocking, or intriguing to win the reader’s
attention. Build an emotional connection with your reader right from the start. A hook in the essay is a
catchy sentence or paragraph in the impressive introduction which serves as an attention element and an
important part. An excellent hook sentence is engaging and interesting; it is a perfect method to start an
argumentative or persuasive essay. The hook for your essay often appears in the first sentence. The

of automation as defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers. Zero, no automation. One, driver
assistance. Two, partial automation. Three, conditional automation. Four, high automation. And five, full
automation. Humans are responsible for monitoring the vehicle and performing most functions in levels
one and two, while an automated driving system performs all functions and levels three, four and five.
Vehicles and levels three and up are considered highly automated vehicles. As vehicles progress to
higher levels of automation, less responsibility is put on the driver for monitoring the vehicle. Here's how
an automated vehicle works. Several systems work in conjunction with each other to control an
automated vehicle. Radar sensors dotted around the car monitor the position of vehicles nearby. Video
cameras detect traffic lights, read road signs and keep track of other vehicles while also looking out for
pedestrians and other obstacles.

women volunteered in the survey. They've been told to participate in the exercise program without
changing their diet. After careful observation, the researchers actually found that some volunteers
experienced a body fat change after six months from the day they've started the experiment. The finding
further stated that some actually lost a significant amount of fat, which led to a decrease in body mass.
On the other hand, there were others who did not lose fat at all. So, I guess, the study concludes that
there must be two explanations. Those who did not lose weight must have eaten more. And another
factor is that it is because there are psychological reasons—not to believe in losing fat.

last 200,000 years, has been so frighteningly rapid that the evolution of cognitive function and
perception can only occur in a small number of genes. If one needed to adapt dozens of genes changes
in concert, in order to acquire the penetrating minds that we now have, which our ancestors 5,000 years
ago didn't have, the evolution could not have taken place, it could not have occurred so quickly. And for
that reason alone, one begins to really suspect that the genetic differences between people who lived
5,000 years ago is evidence that the difference between their cognitive functions and ours is not
actually as large. Therefore, a rather small number of genes may be responsible for the powerful minds
that humans have which most of us now possess.
Answer:
This lecture mainly talks about the human minds. Firstly, the speaker emphasizes that the human minds

and a second one. Kids on average wait for five or six minutes before eating the marshmallow. The
longer a child can resist the treat has been correlated with higher general competency later in life. Now a
study shows that ability to resist temptation isn't strictly innate-it also highly influenced by environment.
Researchers gave five-year-old used crayons and one sticker to decorate a sheet of paper. One group
was promised a new set of art supplies for the project-but then never received it. But the other group
did receive new crayons and better stickers. Then both groups were given the marshmallow test. The
children who had been lied to waited for a mean time of three minutes before eating the marshmallow.
The group that got their promised materials resisted an average of 12 minutes. Thus, the researchers
note that experience factors into a child's ability to delay gratification. When previous promises have
been hollow, why believe the next one?
Answer:
This lecture mainly talks about the marshmallow test. Firstly, the speaker emphasizes that kids on

with—typically a parent—to smile back. And they time it just so, a smile here and a smile there. The
researchers call it sophisticated timing. The study is in the journal PLoS ONE. The researchers enlisted
real mothers and infants and quantified their interactions, which fell into four categories. One: babies
wanted to maximize the amount of time smiling at their mothers. Two: they wanted to maximize the time
the mothers smiled at them. Three: they wanted to experience simultaneous smiling, and four: no smiling
at all. By studying when smiles happened and what the subsequent effect was, the investigators were
able to figure out that for mothers the goal 70 percent of the time was to be smiling simultaneously—
while for babies 80 percent of the time they just wanted their mother smiling at them. So, mothers want
the interaction, while babies just want to be smiled at. So your baby may not be able to feed itself, talk
or even turn over yet. But when it comes to smiles, babies seem to know exactly what they're up to.
Answer:
This lecture mainly talks about babies' smiles. Firstly, the speaker emphasizes those smiles aren’t
