improve a telegraph repeater. He attached a telephone diaphragm to the needle in the
telegraph repeater; in this way, he was able to produce a recording that could be played

In most animals, dental decay is a rare problem. In man, and especially in the rich West,
the disease has reached epidemic proportions.
The cause of tooth decay in human beings is a bacterium that feeds on the sugar in our
food. It digests the sugar more easily by converting it into an acid. The acid then
dissolves the enamel, the outer coating of the teeth, and finally attacks the living nerve
within. The result is the extreme pain we know as toothache.

A good deal of fascinating research has been done about the reading patterns of young
people, and it is surprising to discover at what an early age children start expressing
preferences for particular kinds of books. A recent report, which examined in detail the
reading habits of primary-school children, showed that even seven-year-old boys and
girls have clear views about what they want to read. Girls, in general, read more, and far
more girls than boys preferred reading stories. Boys were showing a taste for the more
instant appeal of picture stories, or else books about their hobbies.
These tastes continue unchanged until the children are teenagers. Apparently girls read
more in general, but more fiction in particular. You could say that there are more
opportunities for girls to read fiction: magazines encourage the fiction habit in girls in
their early teens, and by their late teens, girls have probably moved on to the adult
women’s magazines. Teenage boys tend to buy magazines about their hobbies: sports,
motorcycles, heavy transport and so on.

a. start to read at a very early age
b. have formed their reading tastes by the time they are seven

47. A close look at the reading habits of boys and girls shows that________.
a. schools give more encouragement to girls than to boys
b. magazines appeal more to boys than girls
c. Picture stories appeal more to girls than boys
d. Girls are more interested in fiction than boys
48. According to the passage________.
a. far more boys than girls are interested in love stories
b. There are more opportunities for girls to buy magazines than for boys

Behaviour connected with the body can be confusing because of social differences. In

interest in the person giving the card. In Britain, shaking hands is common between
business people but is becoming less common in social situations these days (and then

Many people continue to skip breakfast despite its being the most important meal of the
day.
Busy people often rush out the door in the mornings without giving their bodies the fuel
they need to handle a long day at work. They end up feeling tired by the afternoon and
resort to the office snack machine or biscuit tin.
Loysa Hourigan, from Nutrition Australia, said that catching up on food at lunchtime did
not provide the body with enough sustenance to keep it going for the rest of the day.
‘Even if you have had lunch, you won’t have as much food as you need. Your brain gets,
depleted of glucose and you feel tired,’ Ms Hourigan said.

Paper is named for papyrus, a reed like plant used by ancient Egyptians as writing
material more than 5,000 years ago. The Chinese invented the paper that we use 2,000
years ago.
A piece of paper is really made up of tiny fibers, not unlike a piece of material. The fibers
used in paper, however, are plant fibers, and there are millions of them in one sheet. In
addition to the plant fiber, dyes and additives such as resin may be used. Dyes can make
the paper different colors; resins may add weight and texture.
Where do these fibers come from? The majority of paper is made from the plant fiber that
comes from trees. Millions are cut down, but new trees are planted in their place. Paper
may be also made from things like old rags, or pieces of cloth. Wastepaper can be turned
into recycled paper. This recycling process saves forests and energy and reduces air and
water pollution.
