written in letters, are called words

is widely acknowledged and we recognize the voice as a feature characterizing the identity of a person The array of voices is immeasurable as no two are exactly similar They can be nasal,

resonant or shrill produced in accordance with the individual physical (42) of the throat

One possible implementation of the art of voice recognition is voice profiling used by police

analysts as a method of (43) court evidence in trials Every year thousands of audiotapes

with recorded interviews or casual utterances are put to the purpose to help identity the

probable culprit Specialists dealing with the voice investigation claim that people can give

themselves away by their accents, infections or other voice attributes like pitch, intensity and

loudness A recorded sample is usually (44) into electric impulses and later

transformed into a pictorial recording which is processed by a computer program Very

frequently voice analysts have a stab at deciphering the relevant information which may be

mingled with background noise or other interfering sounds until they attain the desired results

biographies Or the members could read books of all types, as long as the book is highly

recommended by someone who thinks it would be (50) discussing

Some book clubs meet in places like bookstores, public libraries, or restaurants, but most

have their meetings in members’ homes The approach simply offers more privacy and time

for longer meetings To make the meeting go smoothly, a leader should be appointed The

If you ask anyone who invented television, they will tell you that it was John Logie Baird While

Baird was, of course, extremely important in the history of television, it would be more accurate

to see his role as part of a (56) of events which finally led to television as we know it today

The history of television really begins in 1817 with the discovery by Berzelius, a Swedish

chemist, of the chemical selenium It was found that the amount of electric current that selenium could carry depended on how much light struck it

This discovery directly led to G R Carey, an American inventor, (57) _ up with the first real

television system in 1875 His system used selenium to transmit a picture along wires to a row

of light bulbs This picture was not very clear, however

Over the next few years, a number of scientists and inventors simplified and improved on

Carey's system It was not until1923 that Baird made the first practical transmission Once

again, the picture was (58) through wires, but it was much clearer than Carey's had been

almost fifty years before

The Second World War (59) the development of television After the war, television sets

began to flood the market, with the first mass TV audience watching the baseball World Series

Wind, water, air, ice and heat all work to cause erosion As the wind blows over the land, it often (61) small grains of sand When these grains of sand strike against solid rocks, the rocks are slowly worn away In this way, even very hard rocks are worn away by the wind

When particles of rocks or soil became loosened in any way, running water carries them down

the hillsides Some rocks and soil particles are carried into streams and then into the sea

Land that is covered with trees, grass and other plants wears away very slowly, and so loses

very (62) of its soil The roots of plants help to (63) the rocks and soil in place Water that falls on grasslands runs away more slowly than water that falls on bare ground Thus, forests

and grasslands help to slow down erosion

Even where the land is (64) covered with plants, some erosion goes on In the spring, the (65) snow turns into a large quantity of water that then runs downhill in streams As a

stream carries away some of the soil, the stream bed gets deeper and deeper After thousands

of years of such erosion, wide valleys are often formed

Celebrity Personal

Assistants is a unique group among Hollywood professionals (66) the lawyers and

agents who rub shoulders with the stars and make millions, personal assistants (PAs) are not

paid well They typically earn about $56,000 a year which, (67) their round-the-clock

obligations, isn’t much by Hollywood standards As for the job description, it’s also far from

glamorous

Responsibilities include doing laundry, fetching groceries and paying bills So what's the

attraction? One celebrity PA says, ‘I don’t (68) myself a vain or superficial person, but it

would be wrong to say that we all don't like being close to someone's that's powerful.’ But not

everyone is qualified for the job

Rita Tateel teaches would-be assistants to the stars and begins her lessons with some

(69) truths: 'You must be in good health at all times, because you are running a celebrity's life If you get sick their life can't just stop And you need to be flexible and able to (70) in all kinds of hours You have to be a can-do person If there’s one word that celebrities don't

If you are an environmentalist, plastic is a word you tend to say with a sneer or a snarl It has

become a symbol of our wasteful, throw-away society But there seems little doubt it is here to

stay, and the truth is, of course, that plastic has brought enormous (71) even

environmental ones It's not really the plastic themselves that are the environmental evil - it's the way society chooses to use and abuse them

Almost all the 50 or so different kinds of modern plastic are made from oil, gas or coal-

non-renewable natural (72) We import well over three millions tones of the stuff in Britain each year and, sooner or later, most of it is thrown away A high (33) of our annual consumption is

in the form of packaging, and this constitutes about 7% by weight of our domestic refuse

Almost all of it could be recycled, but very little of it is, though the plastic recycling (74) is

growing fast

The plastics themselves are extremely energy-rich - they have a higher calorific value than coal and one (75) of "recovery" strongly favoured by the plastic manufacturers is the conversion of waste plastic into a fuel

INFLUENCES OF TELEVISION

Television has changed the lifestyle of people in every industrialized country in the world In the United States, where sociologists have studied the effects, some interesting observations have been made

Television, although not essential, has become a(n) (76) part of most people’s lives It has

become a baby-sitter, an initiator of conversations, a major transmitter of culture, and a keeper

of traditions Yet when what can be seen on TV in one day is critically analyzed, it becomes

evident that television is not a teacher but a sustainer The poor quality of programs does not

elevate people into greater (77)

The primary reason for the lack of quality in American television is related to both the history of

TV development and the economics of TV Television in America began with the radio Radio

companies and their sponsors first experimented with television Therefore, the close

relationship, which the advertisers had with radio programs, became the system for

American TV Sponsors not only paid money for time within programs, but many actually

produced the programs Thus, coming from the capitalistic, profit-oriented sector of American

society, television is primarily (78) with reflecting and attracting society rather than

innovating and experimenting with new ideas Advertisers want to attract the largest viewing

audience possible; to do so requires that the programs be entertaining rather than challenging Television in America today remains, to a large (79) , with the same organization and

standards as it had thirty years ago The hope for some evolution and true achievement toward improving society will require a change in the (80) system

In a single day, rail passengers could travel hundreds of miles, cutting previous journey times by huge margins and bringing rapid travel within the (83) of ordinary people

Previously, many people had never ventured beyond the outskirts of their town and villages

The railway brought them greater freedom and enlightenment

In the 19th century, the railway in Britain represented something more than just the business of carrying goods and passengers Trains were associated with romance, adventure and,

frequently,

(84) luxury But the railways did more than revolutionize travel; they also left a distinctive and permanent mark on the British landscape Whole towns and industrial centers (85)

valleys and the railway stations themselves became desirable places to spend time between

journeys

brain with the ability to recognize feelings and respond in a feeling way They will then

produce fake people We will then be able to create a machine duplicate of ourselves so we

will appear to be alive long after we are dead Maybe a few decades later, a way will be found

to transfer our spirit, including our (87) and thoughts, to the new body Then we can

choose to live for as long as we want It might be expensive When it becomes possible to do

a spirit transfer, they will figure out (88) to do them automatically So we will be able to

reside within whichever duplicate we want, whenever we want

Sugar was for a long time a luxury and in the opinion of the medical profession it still should be During the nineteenth century, however, manufactures discovered (96) of

producing it in vast quantities and it has since become one of the staple articles of diet,

particularly for the lower social classes It has the advantages of being comparatively cheap,

easily digested, rich in energy and useful for flavoring Its major drawbacks are that it lacks

every nourishing quality except that of giving energy, and because of its attractive flavor it
