Mark’s best friend

Zack never makes mistakes when he’s talking for Mark

Mark Lane loves his wife and his

dog, but he can’t live without his

best friend And who is Mark’s

best friend? It’s his computer,

Zack! Today is a typical day in

the Lane’s house Mark is lying in

bed, and Zack is checking Mark’s

emails, He’s reading them to

Mark, When Mark’s wife comes

in, Mark types ‘Hello, Lucy’ on

Zack’s keyboard and Zack says

can use computers like Zack to

solve big problems for people like

Mark,’ says Dr Gianni And Zack doesn’t just help Mark to

communicate — he also reads

emails and web pages to him, and

gives him information He can

even answer the phone — and he’s

learning to play chess with Mark!

‘Zack is becoming a friend to

Mark,’ says Dr Gianni, ‘He can’t

give advice, like a real friend -

but I’m working on that”

‘Zack is fantastic,’ says Mark

‘He's helping me to live again.’

And what does Lucy think about Zack? ‘I love Zack! He sometimes makes mistakes when he’s talking, but I can usually understand

what Mark wants to say, and

that's very important.’

‘Hello, Lucy’ to her

Mark needs Zack because he can't do things for himself, Mark

was in a car accident, and now he

can’t walk or talk, He can see and

hear, and he can move two fingers

on one hand — but that's all He

can’t even say ‘hello’ to Lucy But

Zack can do it for him Zack

helps Mark to communicate with

the world ‘Of course, he can’t do

everything — he can’t make

decisions for me But he can

speak for me, and that’s fantastic.”

Loch Ness is a beautiful place

surrounded by the green hills of

Scotland It is also the home of one

of the most famous mysteries of the

natural world — the Loch Ness

monster, or ‘Nessie’ There are many

stories about a giant monster living

at the bottom of the loch People say

it's similar to a dinosaur Some

people laugh at these stories, but

many others believe there is

something strange out there

Glossary: loch — the Scottish word for ake"

1933 two people saw it out of the

water Mr and Mrs Spicer were in their car when they saw a giant

monster move slowly across the road

into the loch They stopped the car

and leoked out of the window, but

they were terrified and they didn’t

follow it — they went home quickly!

After this, many people looked for Nessie Some people took

photographs of strange things in the

water, although others said the

photographs weren'’t real But later,

in 1934, a doctor from London said

he saw Nessie, and he took perhaps

the most famous photograph of her

her Nobody knows the real answer,

Why not come and see for yourself?
