Taking care of the keyboard


The keyboard is a roburts device used for inputting data on to your computer. As you type in
information small letters are sent via the cable to the inside of the machine where they are
organized into the words that you see. Keep your cable straight.
It is important that the keyboard cable has no kinks or that no object is placed on the cable to
restrict the flow of letters to the machine. Care also must be taken that letters with sharp point do
not become snared in the cable.
X’s and Z’s are the most common letters to be snared, and the result will be words appearing on
the screen with these letters missing. O’s and D’s move the easiest through the cable.
To best take care of your keyboard cable stretch it out and straighten the kinks frequently. Letters
are snared most frequently where the cable enters the machine, so be sure to straighten that
section of cable on a weekly basis.
Be aware that any spelling mistakes may be the result of letters stuck in the cable rather than
dyslexic fingers. Letters caught in the cable decay away quickly once the machine is turned off,
so no lasting damage occurs in the buildup of snared letters.

Giant Australian Cuttlefish

Location and habitat


The Giant Austarlian Cuttlefish (Sepia apama) is found in waters from less than a metre deep to
probably around 100 m off Southern and eastern Australia.
Description
Australian Giant Cuttlefish (a solitary creature) is by far the biggest type of cuttlefish growing up
to a length of 1 meter and up to 3 kg. They have a big flat broad head with 2 large eyes with 8
tentacles (arms) and 2extendable feeding tentacles emerging from this head. The 2 feeding
tentacles which are used for feeding retract into pouches between the bases of the third and
fourth arm pairs. Along their sides they have thin fins.
It breathes like fish through gils.
Internally they have a spongy chalk like internal shell (cuttlebone) whice gives the body its
shape. The cuttlefish has three hearts, which pumps blue blood

Movement
Slow movement is obtained by using its thin fins located along their sides. Propulsion is
increased by using jets of water squirted out from a funnel. Australian Giant Cuttlefish swim eith
their tentacles close to their body, and cuttlefish regulate their buoyancy by pumping water in
and out of the gas filled cuttlebone to change the volume (and thus buoyancy) of the gas to
enable them to maintain the depth they wish.

Defense
Cuttlefish have the ability to change their colour to match their background, even the texture of
its skin to be more like sand or seaweed and can push up fingers of soft skin to impersonate the
shape of seaweeds or rubble.
They can also eject ink from ank ink sack just like an octopus to confus and disorientate enemies
so it can escape.

Feeding
They actively forage amongst seaweeds and sea grasses catshing shrimp, fish, prawns, crabs and
other crustaceans. They use their 2 extendable feeding tentacles to snatch their catch, which is
then mashed up by a hard “beak” (jaws).

Breeding
Individuals breed from April to July. This is the time they come closer to the surface and thus
can be observed A courting and mateship dance ends up with the male and female entwining
their tentacles together. The eggs (hundreds)are then laid a short time later often in litle coral
caves or on rocky reefs further south. The eggs take a couple of months to hatch.

III. Answer the questions completely!

Read the text below, then answer the questions correctly

Alternative medicine is, by definition, an alternative to something else: modem, Western


medicine. But the term ’alternative’ can be misleading, even off-putting for some people.

Few practitioners of homeopathy, acupuncture, herbalism and the like regard their therapiesas
complete substitutes of modern medicine. Rather, they consider their disciplines as
supplementary to orthodox medicine.
The problem is that many doctors refuse even to recognize ‘natural’or alternative medicine, it
calls for a radically different view of health, illness, and cure. But whatever doctors may think,
the demand for alternative forms of medical therapy is stronger than ever before, as the
limitations of modern medical science become more widely understood.
Alternative therapies are often dismissed by orthodox medicine because they are sometimes
administered by people with no formal medical training. But, in comparison with many
traditional therapies, western medicine as we know it today is a very recent phenomenon. Until
only 150 years ago, herbal medicine and simple inorganic compounds were the most effective
treatments available.
Despite the medical establishment’s intolerant attitude, alternative therapies are being accepted
by more and more doctors, and the World Health Organization has agreed to promote the
integration of proven, valuable, ‘alternative’ knowledge and skills in western medicine.

53. What are alternative therapies and Western medicine?


Answer: - Alternative therapies are therapies which are administered by people with nonformal
medical training

doctor treatment.

Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyable. You can mix pleasure learning when
you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to your English Progress. Some underlying reason
can be drawn to support the idea why we use songs in language learning.
Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last song we heard
after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This
phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our short-and-long term memory.
Secondly, a song is general also use simple conversation language, with a lot of repetition, which is just
what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them many times more
motivating than other text. Although usually sample, some songs can be quite complex syntactically,
lexically and poetically and can be analyzed in the same way as any other literary sample.
Furthermore, songs can be appropriated by listeners for their own purposes. Most pop songs and
probably many other types don’t have precise people, place or time references.
In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself and
within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion patriotism and,
yes, even revolutions
Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs, such as studying grammar,
practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary and studying the
culture.
Thus, from the elaboration above, it can be concluded that by learning through music and songs,
learning English can be enjoyable and it is fun to English.

33. What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text?


a. to describe the song
b. to tell that singing is important
c. to amuse the readers with the song
d. to persuade the readers learning English through music and song is enjoyable.
e. to say that it is important learning English with English song

34. What topic does the writer introduce in the text?
