CALL OF THE CHILD
One day I found my three-year-old son with the telephone, which he quickly hung
up when he saw me. “What were you doing?” I asked him. He said that he had
called his Aunty Tara. “How could you have called Aunty Tara?” I asked. “You don’t
even know her number.” “Yes, I do. I called her,” he replied. I wasted a lot of breath
trying to convince him that he didn’t know her number, but he insisted he had made
the call. “Okay,” I said finally. “What did she say, then, if you called her?” He
answered, “She told me I had the wrong number.”

Television has been
with us very long, and
we have already
begun to forget what
the world was like
without it. Before we
admitted it into our
homes we never found it difficult to occupy our
spare time. We used to read books and listen to
music and broadcast talks now and then. Now we
gulp down our meals to be in time for this or that
program. A sandwich and a glass of beer will do;
anything, provided it doesn’t interfere with the
program. Whole generations are growing up
addicted to the TV. Food is left uneaten, homework
undone and sleep is lost. The TV is a universal
pacifier. It is now standard practice for mothers to
keep the children quiet by putting them in the living-
room and turning on the set. It doesn’t matter what
they will see so long as they are quiet.

LAUGHTER, THE BEST MEDICINE
A man and his wife were giving each other the silent
treatment. After a week of no talking, the man realized he would
need his wife to wake him for an early morning fishing trip.
Not wanting to be the first to break the silence, he wrote
on a piece of paper, “Please wake me up at 5 a.m.”
The next morning the man arose, only to discover it was
9 a.m. and he’d missed his trip.
Furious, he was about to go and find his wife when he
noticed a piece of paper on his pillow.It read: “It’s 5 a.m.
Wake up!”

Dolphins are mammals, not fish. They are warm blooded like man,
and give birth to one baby, called a calf, at a time.
At birth, a dolphin calf is about 90-130 cms long and will grow to
approximately 4 metres, living up to 40 years.
They are highly sociable animals, living in groups, which are fairly
fluid, with dolphins from other groups interacting with each other from
time to time.
Dolphins carry their young inside their womb for about 12 months.
The baby is born tail first, and its mother will feed the calf for up to 2
years.
However, the calf will stay with its mother for between 3-6 years, during which time it will learn all about
feeding techniques, social interaction and group hunting.

Text – Superstitions: 
Friday 13th – unlucky for you?
Are you superstitious? Do you believe in good luck and bad luck? And, if so, how do you go
about avoiding bad and promoting good luck?
One person in four in Britain is, apparently, superstitious, and they’ll do everything from hanging
horseshoes over their fireplace to crossing their fingers, touching wood and absolutely never walking
under a ladder. And they’re careful about cats. Black cats are supposed to be the familiars of witches
or warlocks, so if one is following you it’s definitely bad luck – a witch is after you!. On the other
hand, if one crosses your path and continues then it’s good luck because it hasn’t noticed you.
However, in some places the beliefs are different – so it pays to know where your black cat comes
from!

EARN CASH AND HELP SAVE THE PLANET BY RECYCLING
YOUR OLD GADGETS WITH MIRRORGOGREEN
If getting paid for going green sounds too good to be true then you’ve not heard of Mirrorgogreen, a
new site launched to help paint Britain green through recycling old or unused gadgets.
We all have old phones, digital cameras and even laptops gathering dust in drawers so now is the time
to recycle these gadgets and cash in.
Recycling an Apple iPhone, for example, could earn you $198, while you can get up to $350 for a
working laptop and more than $60 for a working MP3 player.
The Mirrorgogreen site has been developed to be the first of its kind to recycle not only mobile phones
but also laptops, MP3 players and sat navs, with plans to expand into several other technologies in the next
few months.
To find out what your old gadgets are worth and to cash in while doing your bit for the environment, visit
the Mirrorgogreen site now.

Non-smokers who grew up with smoking parents face double the usual risk of lung
cancer. A recent study estimates that 17 percent of all lung cancer patients in the US
have never touched a cigarette and that their disease results from exposure to smokers
when they were young. “It makes a strong case that exposure to secondhand smoke as

We started working on a new heart medicine in 1992. It took 15 years to complete all of the tests and
find the exact, right compound. The cost? More than the price of a space shuttle mission. Inventing new
medicines isn’t easy, but it’s worth it. Every discovery gives millions of people a new chance at life. And the
profits help fund critical research on diseases like Multiple Sclerosis and Alzheimer’s. The truth is, we’re not

12 Text – Roller Skates
ROLLER SKATES
Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn’t easy at all. Before 1750,
the idea of skating didn’t exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work
was making musical instruments.
In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams.
People called him a dreamer.
One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. He was very pleased and
a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand
entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate
into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make _________ roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels
under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention as
dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was
astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He
rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the
mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin’s grand entrance for a long time!

13 Text – New Research on the Power of Smiling
We all know that smiling is important when meeting
new people. However, new research suggests that
different types of smiles affect what people think of us.
There are any number of sayings about the power of
the smile. ‘Peace begins with a smile.’ ‘A smile is the
universal welcome.’ ‘Life is short but a smile only takes a
second.’ All good advice. But it may not be as simple as
that. According to new research, if you want to make a
good impression when you meet people, it's not just that
you smile. It's how you smile.
The study was carried out by the Go Group, a business support organisation based in
Scotland. They looked at people's reactions to different grins. They found that responses varied
considerably.
Through this they say they have found three types of smile to avoid: The first is ‘The
Enthusiast’, very wide, all teeth showing, possible evidence that you can have too much of a
good thing. Then there is the 'Big Freeze', a fixed grin that looks practised and fake. Finally
comes ‘The Robot’, a small, thin smile, lacking in warmth.
The group also warns about smiling too quickly, saying it can make you look insincere. The
best smile, they say, is slower and floods naturally across the whole face.

WHITE LIES
At 9:00 Dick Spivalk’s bank telephoned and said
payment was late. ‘The check is in the post.’ Dick replied
quickly. At 11:45 Dick left for a 12:00 meeting across
town. Arriving late, he explained that traffic had been bad.
That evening, Dick’s girlfriend wore a new dress. He
hated it. ‘It looks just great on you,’ he said.
Three lies in one day! Yet Dick Spivalk is just an
ordinary man. Each time, he told himself that sometimes the
truth causes too many problems. Most of us tell much the
same white lies, harmless untruths that help to save trouble.
How often do we tell white lies? It depends in part
on our age, education, and even where we live. According
to one U.S. study, women are more truthful than men, and honesty increases as we get older.
While most people use little white lies to make life easier, the majority of Americans care
about honesty in both public and personal life. They say that people today are less honest than
they were ten years ago. Although it is believed that things are getting worse, lying seems to be
an age-old human problem. The French philosopher Vauvenarges, writing in the eighteenth
century, touched on the truth when he wrote, ‘All men are born truthful and die liars.’

MR. MILLER’S COMPLAINT
Dear Sir,
I must complain in writing about the service at the Hotel Regency last month. I stayed
at the hotel for a fortnight, and this was my third visit.
There were a number of things wrong. First, the new self-service arrangement at lunch
was not what I expected. Second, the service at dinner was very slow. Third, the general
standard of service in the hotel was very poor. The receptionists always seemed
extremely busy; the hotel porter was never available; there was no 24-hour service; there
was nobody to help me get a taxi when I needed one most; and I thought that the floor
waiter was rather rude.
I do not usually complain but, as an old customer, I’m sure you will be interested in my
comments.
Yours truly.
Peter Miller.

21 Text: Computer
A SPANISH TEACHER was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either
masculine or feminine.
‘House’ for instance, is feminine: ‘la casa.’
‘Pencil,’ however, is masculine: ‘el lapiz.’
A student asked, ‘What gender is ‘computer’?’
Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two
groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves
whether computer should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each
group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.
The men’s group decided that ‘computer’ should definitely be of
the feminine gender (‘la computadora’), because:
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;
3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.
(THIS GETS BETTER!)
The women’s group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine (‘el computador’), because:
1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;
2. They have a lot of data but still can’t think for themselves;
3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.
The women won.

Text: How to Call the Attention
HOW TO CALL THE ATTENTION
According to legend: A man was going to bed
when his wife noticed that the light in their garden shed
was on. When he opened the back door to go turn off
the light, he saw people stealing things from the shed.
He quickly phoned the police and was asked, “Is
someone in your house?” The man said no, and the
officer replied that all patrols were busy. They should
simply lock the doors, and an officer would be along
when available.
The irate homeowner counted to 30 and dialed the
police again. “I just called because there were people in my shed. You don’t have to worry now because
I’ve shot them all.” Then he hung up.
Within five minutes, three police cars, an armed response unit and an ambulance parked in front of
the house. The police caught the burglars red-handed.
“I thought you said that you’d shot them,” one officer said sternly.
“I thought you said there was nobody available,” the man replied.

SNEAKERS: A SHOO-IN FOR TODDLERS
Many people believe that high-top leather orthopedic shoes
are necessary to give extra support to toddlers learning to walk.
But a study from the University of Southern California finds
sneakers may actually be better.
Researchers observed the gait and stability of 36 toddlers.
The children, 18 to 30 months old, walked barefoot, in low-top,
rubber-soled canvas sneakers and in rigid-soled leather shoes.
The toddlers had better balance and more stability when they
walked barefoot or in sneakers.
“Toddlers’ shoes are meant to provide protection, no
support”, says Michelle Larson, assistant professor of physical
therapy at U.S.C., “and sneakers can do that just fine.”

London. Leave it to Richard Branson, the charismatic president of Virgin Records, to come up with the London
Frog Tours, the latest exciting way to
explore London. Visitors to the capital hop
onboard a yellow amphibious bus-like
vehicle that will take them on a 70-minute
road and river adventure. First stops on

RESOLUÇÃO: Resposta: B
ASK THE DEAF IF SILENCE IS GOLDEN
You can be very sure that anyone who tells you silence is
golden, isn’t deaf.
It’s not just a matter of not hearing. Deafness can also mean
not being able to learn. Or read and write. Or communicate. Or do
anything fulfilling with your life.
The RNID aims to help all who suffer from deafness to
overcome these problems. We provide a special school for
children, a hostel for young adults, residential homes for the
elderly. We run special laboratories, a welfare service and the
world’s largest information service devoted entirely to deafness.
Unfortunately, it all takes a lot of money.
We depend on donations and bequests to continue our
work. We can’t make silence golden but, with your contribution,
we can at least go on relieving some of the problems.
So please give us something soon.

27 Text: Islands for Sale
Almost anyone can buy an island. ‘If you can buy a car, you can
buy an island’, says Mr Vladi. He estimates that if the place is
uninhabited and there is no infrastructure in place, you need around
£ 70,000 to buy an island. ‘All I can say is that my clients have a
connection with nature, they have high intelligence, they have to be
able to improvise, and above all, they are individualists.’
Desert islands have changed, solar energy is not difficult to get,
the laptop computer and mobile phone era has arrived.
Many of Mr Vladi's islands are priced around £150,000. For that you can buy Flatholmen, a 5,000
square-metre islands in a Norwegian fjord.
In the same price range there is Ilhote Grande, 42,000 square-metres, south of Rio de Janeiro. It has
a rocky coastline, a four-room house, bananas and coconuts.
Mr Vladi's biggest sale was an island for $ 12 million. There are a lot of Japanese customers around.
Because of the financial crisis in the Far East, there are plenty of people wanting to move their capital into
islands.
Mr Vladi himself now owns a Canadian isle and shares one in New Zealand.

afterlife was like.

wafted in ____________________ the open window.
“Burt… Burt…”
The old man sat up. “My God! Ernie, is that you?”
“Yes, and I tell you, it’s marvelous… simply marvelous.”
“Tell me about it,” Burt urged.
“Well, in the morning we eat breakfast and then spend
hours making love. Then we eat lunch and spend more

again.”
“Holy cow!” gushed Burt, “I can’t wait to die and go

THE MANNY CRAZE
There seems to be a new trend in household help among upscale New
York families. Mannies, young men hired to entertain and roughhouse with
young boys during the after-school hours, are the latest craze. The New
England School of Nannies graduated its first male nanny almost thirteen
years ago, and the request for these young men has been growing strong ever
since. Mannies boast the same salary as their female counterparts
(approximately $12 an hour) but don’t do windows, laundry or any cooking.
How’s that for equal rights!
(Speak Up) Male nannies – or mannies – are
the latest trend in babysitting.

Is English the world’s Lingua Franca? A report
from the British Council announced yesterday
estimated that by 2015 two billion people will start
learning English around the world, and three billion
people – half the planet – will be speaking it. However,
report editor, David Graddoll, said that English will
not become the Esperanto and dominate global
language learning as Arabic, Chinese and Spanish
are ready to rise in importance. He said the trend is
towards “linguistic globalization” and multi-lingualism,
not bilingualism, and definitely not monolingualism.
French, on the other hand, once considered a lingua
franca, will see its status as a world language continue to slide.
Although English will escalate in popularity, English language teachers will likely be out of a job by
2050, when so many people will be able to speak English, that teaching it will become almost redundant.
Demand for English teaching will drop by a 75%, from two billion to 500 million. Instead English will be
taught worldwide at elementary level, and many universities across the world will choose to teach in
English. This suggests a wake-up call for traditionally lazy and monolingual Britons, who tend to shun
language learning because of their “everyone speaks English” mentality. Brits will be left behind in a future
poly-lingual world.

HO HO HO!
According to Personnel Management magazine, laughter can
help you stay healthy. Medical research has revealed that it helps
strengthen the body’s immune system, raising resistance to germs. (It
appears that lighthearted laughter is best, “defiant or self-deprecating”
humor doesn’t have the same beneficial effect.) Employers are
advised that, by encouraging more mirth in the workplace, they can
save themselves a fortune in a sick pay.
So next time the boss catches you sharing a joke by the
photocopier, you can tell her it’s all for the good of the company. Honest.
(Compiled by Tania Unsworth)

31 Text – Chopsticks
(UPFI)
Environmentalists in China are campaigning to reduce the alarming number of
disposable wooden chopsticks used in the country. Over 25 million trees are used
each year in manufacturing what has been China’s
primary eating utensil since 1500 B.C. The
devastating floods in China in 1998 were blamed
on deforestation. Since then support has risen for
more careful use of forest resources. For example, many people now
carry reusable chopsticks, authorities in Shanghai created a tax on
disposable wooden chopsticks and more than 100 of Beijing’s state-
owned restaurants agreed to begin reusing them.

32 Text: The New Seven Wonders
The seven wonders chosen in a global poll in which a hundred-
million votes were said to have been cast online, by phone and by text
message were announced one by one in random order towards the
end of a glamorous ceremony in Lisbon.
First came the Great Wall of China, said to be the only
monument visible from space. Its certificate was handed over to
Chinese officials by Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon. Next
up was Petra, the stone-carved ancient city in Jordan, whose royal
family led a campaign for it. Rio de Janeiro's Statue of Christ the
Redeemer also made the cut after an appeal by Brazil's president for
his compatriots to vote. There were two other winners from the
Americas – Machu Picchu in Peru and Chichen Itza in Mexico –
representatives of ancient civilisations unknown to Antipater of Sidon,
the Greek writer who drew up the original list of wonders two-
thousand-two-hundred years ago. The last two wonders were Rome's
Colosseum, described in its introduction as a symbol of joy and
suffering, and the Taj Mahal. That was announced by Bollywood star
Bipasha Basu who, along with Oscar-winning actors Ben Kingsley
and Hilary Swank presented the ceremony.
The Pyramids at Giza, the only wonder on the original list still standing, had been made an honorary
candidate, guaranteed a mention. But Egyptian officials shunned the whole initiative anyway as too
commercial. At the ceremony's close, its Swiss organiser, Bernard Weber, announced his next initiative –
a global poll on the seven natural wonders of the world. (Alison Roberts)

Grand Theft Identity
Millions of people now have a new reason to dread the
mailbox. In addition to the tried-and-true collection of Letters You
Never Want to See – the tax audit, the high cholesterol reading, the
college-rejection letter there is now the missive that reveals you are
on the fast track to becoming a victim of identity theft. Someone
may have taken possession of your credit-card info, bank account or
other personal data that would enable him or her to go on a
permanent shopping spree – leaving you to deal with the financial,
legal and psychic bills. Deborah Platt Majoras got the pain letter
recently, from DSW Shoe Warehouse. Hers was among more than
a million credit-card numbers that the merchant stored in an ill-
protected database. So when hackers busted in, they got the
information to buy stuff in her name – and 1.4 million other people’s
names. “It’s scary,” she says. “Part of it is the uncertainty that
comes with it, not knowing whether sometime in the next year my
credit-card number will be abused.” Now she must take steps to
protect herself, including re-examining charges closely, requesting a
credit report and contacting the U.S. Federal Trade Commission to
put her complaint into its ID-theft database. The latter step should

On average, Americans eat 3 hamburgers a week.
34 Text
Why is it called a “hamburger” when there is no
ham in it?
Why is it “Where’s the beef” when it should be
where’s the ham?
The answer is really quite simple: because
Hamburg, Germany, made the first hamburgers.
However, the history of the
hamburger is actually more com -
plicated. Who actually invented
the first hamburger remains a
mystery.
Some say it was a group of
nomadic people called the Tartars
who tenderized their beef by
placing it under a horse’s saddle– flattening it into
a patty. Others believe it was the German
immigrants who traveled to the United States during
the 19th century bringing with them their favorite
meal called Hamburg Style Beef – a raw chopped,
piece of beef. Some argue Americans placed the
first cooked beef patty on a roll at the St. Louis
World’s Fair in 1921.
Although beef is the most popular meat used in
hamburgers, other meats such as pork and turkey
have been used.
Ever since Bob’s Big Boy introduced the first
double patty burger, new varieties of burgers have
been created. Today people enjoy veggie burgers
and turkey burgers, with many different
toppings including lettuce, mushrooms,
cheese, onions, tomatoes, ketchup,
mustard, and pickles.
Hamburgers remain one of the most
favorite foods among Americans today.
Ranking #1 among all restaurants
with 26,000 stores in 119 countries,
McDonald’s serves billions of hamburgers
worldwide.
Holy Hamburger!
On average, Americans eat 3 hamburgers a week.
McDonald’s has sold 12 hamburgers for every
person in the world.
60% of all sandwiches eaten are hamburgers.

ADVICE A doctor and a lawyer were talking at a party.Their conversation was constantly interrupted by
people describing their ailments and asking the
doctor for free medical advice.
After an hour of this, the exasperated doctor
asked the lawyer, “What do you do to stop people
from asking you for legal advice when you’re out of
the office?”
“I give it to them,” replied the lawyer, “and then
I send them a bill.”
The doctor was shocked, but agreed to give it a
try. The next day, still feeling slightly guilty, the
doctor prepared the bills. When he went to place
them in his mailbox, he found a bill from the lawyer.

competitive sports towards this non-stress alternative. And
the numbers speak for themselves. In New York, classes that
once catered to 50 children per week (at a cost of $20 per
45-minute session) are now reporting an enrolment of 150.
Already on the market are children’s yoga videos and
relaxation blankets. A line of children’s yoga clothing and a
chain of kiddie yoga studios are in the works.

SPA KIDS
Call it a disheartening sign of the times – children are now so
stressed out that they are seeking professional help. Yet relief is not
coming from doctors or psychiatrists but from a less traditional front –
health spas catering exclusively to kids. So popular have these venues
become that one San Antonio, Texas spa registered 700 kids in two
months.Favorite procedures include massages, facials (about $40 for
25 minutes), hair braiding and henna tattoos (from $4 to $20).

37 Text
A group of men and women are standing
around in a circle. First, someone starts to laugh.
Then a few more people chuckle. Soon, the whole
gang is cracking up. They are
not laughing because someone
said something funny. Instead,
this group of people is
practicing laughter therapy.
When we laugh from
being tickled or after hearing a
joke, our bodies and minds
feel good. Laughing is also
contagious. When one person
laughs, the people around him or her will soon start
laughing, too.
The use of laughter therapy has been in
hospitals since the 1970s. A doctor in the US found
that getting his patients to laugh helped them
recover better. His story was later made into the
movie Patch Adams, which starred Robin Williams.
In India, Dr. Madan Kataria
started a laughter club in
1995 to encourage good
health. From then on, this
form of therapy has spread
around the world. People in
these groups may feel
uncomfortable at first
because the laughter feels
forced. But once they give
in and fully enjoy the 45-
minute activity, they feel at ease. People who take
part in laughter therapy learn what scientists have
known for years — laughter is the best medicine.

In blue: the hole in the ozone
layer over Antarctica.
A Job Centre in Somerset (England) recently advertised a vacancy
for a witch. Wookey Hole Caves, a tourist attraction near Wells
requires a resident witch because the previous one is retiring. And
the job description? Well, candidate witches must be able to cackle
and must also live in the caves during the tourist season. “Wookey Hole
wants the appointee to go about her everyday business as a hag, so
that people passing through the caves can get a sense of what the
place was like in the Dark Ages.” The salary? £50,000.
On the other hand, witches still suffer discrimination. For
instance, the Crystal Cauldron Coven in Stockport booked the
Our Lady’s Social Club in Stockport for their Halloween
Witches Ball. However, the Diocese of Shrewsbury subsequently
decided that the party was “not in keeping with the church’s ethos
and cancelled the reservation. Sandra Davis, spokesperson for the
Crystal Cauldron accused the Catholic Church of ‘prejudice’.

Have you noticed that every time you go for a
perm or a trim that hairdresser is always very
chatty? The reason they are so happy is that most of
them love their jobs. This is according to a survey
conducted by the City & Guilds of London Institute,
which asked 1,200 workers about their job
satisfaction. Forty per cent of hairdressers are very
happy in their jobs, while civil servants, social
workers and architects are the unhappiest workers.
None of the top ten positions in the Happiness Index
included office jobs. The happiest workers were
those who used their hands. In second place were
religious ministers, followed by chefs, beauticians
and plumbers. The survey showed that people who
can run their own business and be self-employed
are happiest. Desk workers came very low on the
happiness scale. Teachers didn’t seem tobe too
happy either – only 8% said they enjoyed their
work. There wasn’t a figure for English teachers,
although their job satisfaction is probably very high.
English teachers also smile a lot and generally love
their jobs. City and Guilds advised workers to start
every day positively, chat to colleagues, and brighten
the workplace with personal photographs and flowers.

Forget about expensive gyms, the new sport in cities is free-running. Since it started in a Paris suburb
in the 1990s, free running has attracted lots of fans in cities around the world. Instead of walking normally,
free-runners jump over or around anything — cars, buildings, trees, or streetlights — in their way.
One of the sport’s inventors told our reporter how freerunning started, “It was boring where we lived,
there was nothing for us to do after school. We had done playground games like football and basketball
when we were kids but we wanted something new and exciting. We started learning how to jump and run
between buildings — and we loved it. Walking is a waste of time. Free-runners have to use their
imaginations. Everything — a tree, a streetlight — ispart of our outdoor gym. We’re like children because
we’ve never stopped playing in the street.”
The sport’s website has lots of rules, for example, don’t break people’s windows, don’t jump on
flowerbeds and don’t be rude to people who want you to stop. Safety is also very important. You must start
with the easy moves — you have to do
thousands of small practice jumps before you try
anything difficult. If you make only one mistake,
you might hurt yourself badly.
A local person said, “It’s good that young
people have something to do. But when they
jump off buildings like cats they sometimes
frighten other people.”

One full week after the funeral, the immediate family of
millionaire Charles Hudson was gathered in a law office to hear the
reading of the deceased’s will. Mr Hudson’s wife, thirty years his
junior, was prepared for a bitter fight with his former wife and her
son. The lawyer, Don Rollins, anticipated a turbulent session because
he was the only one who knew the contents of the revised will that
Hudson had ordered drawn up six months prior to his death.
The current Mrs. Hudson, dressed in her smart widow’s weeds,
expected that she would receive the lion’s share of the estate. The
former Mrs. Hudson felt that she was entitled to most of the estate
since she was practically indigent at the present time, despite her substantial alimony payments.
Lawyer Rollins cleared his throat and began to read:
“To my present spouse I leave my town house where she can continue to store the jewels, shoes, dress, and furs
she accumulated in two years of shopping and marriage.
“To my son, who has put offpi finding a career until my estate would enrich him, I leave the sum of ten dollars for
cab fare to the unemployment office.
“To my former wife whose bad behavior I tolerated for three decades, I leave my beach house where she can
continue to work on her tan, something that she prized above our happiness.
“To the Society For the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals I leave the remainder of my entire estate, knowing they
will put it to better use than anyone in this room.”
The lawyer was wrong. No outcries. Silence, supreme silence, reigned among the shocked audience.

CRIME AND PUNISHMENT
A local woman was involved in
a hit-and-run incident early
Sunday afternoon.
Monica Parsons, 27, was crossing Finchley
Road near her house, when she was hit by a car
being driven at speed.
Hospital sources say that the victim has no
recollection of the incident. Police have
appealed for information from anyone who saw
a white car being driven at speed in the area.
A fire at Fenbury Warehouse is being treated as
arson, according to a police spokesperson.
The fire broke out at around 5 am and quickly
engulfed the whole building. By the time the fire
brigade arrived at the scene, almost the entire
warehouse had been destroyed.
The warehouse contained elec -
tronic parts, and the demage
has been estimated in the region
of three million pounds.
A local man has been given a
three-month jail sentence for
repeatedly shoplifting in the
Newbury area.
Gary Dibbot, 28, who paid a fine six months
ago for a previous conviction, admitted stealing
DVDs from RentaVideo in Fenbury.
Dibbot's lawyer said that his client regretted his
actions and that he would turn over a new leaf
after serving his sentence.

NAPPLES PIZZA PROTECTED BY EU
Pizza makers in Naples are celebrating after
gaining official European Union recognition. It’s
the end of a battle that began 25 years ago and is
aimed at protecting Neapolitan pizzas from
imitations. 
For 25 years pizza makers in Naples have
been trying to get their product protected, and now
it is, being granted a TSG, or Traditional Speciality
Guaranteed label by the EU. The head of the pizza
makers’ association said the trademark was a
great honour. The EU’s agriculture commissioner
said Neapolitan pizza was now part of Europe’s food heritage.
It means that all pizzerias aspiring to supply the real thing are, in future, supposed to be vetted
by a special commission that will check standards. They include using only San Marzano tomatoes
and fresh buffalo mozzarella cheese.
The Italian farmers’ association says that half of Italy’s 25.000pizzerias currently use wrong
ingredients, like East European cheese or Ukrainian flour.
Italy now tops the EU chart for products that are protected. It has180, more than Spain or
France. Protected status enables producers to not only boast about their exclusivity but also charge
a premium. And now pizza makers from Naples will get their slice of the action.

GOOGLE TESTING SELF-DRIVING CAR
Google is testing a car it believes is the future of
motoring. The Internet giant has been testing the car that
drives itself for several months. It has driven along
thousands of miles of public roads in California. The car
is guided by sensors, lasers and video cameras. A Google
spokesperson explained to concerned motorists that the
car has never been driven “unmanned,” and had test
drivers, just in case things went wrong. The tech company
says its vehicles are still “very much at the experimental
stage”. Google’s interest in artificial intelligence is a sign
that it wants to branch out beyond the web. It is an extension of its Street View project, in which
millions of streets have been photographed and put online.
Google’s blog said the company’s entry into the world of automotive technology is part of its
plans to make the world a better place. “Larry [Page] and Sergey [Brin] founded Google because

of the big problems we’re working on today is car safety and efficiency. Our goal is to help prevent
traffic accidents, free up people’s time and reduce carbon emissions by fundamentally changing car
use.” Google CEO Eric Schmidt said last month that it was unfortunate that cars were invented
before computers: “Your car should drive itself; it’s amazing to me that we let humans drive cars,”

HOMELESS MAN IN CREDIT CARD HONESTY
A homeless man in New York has repaid the trust
paid in him by a woman who gave him her credit card.
Jay Valentine, 32, was standing on a Manhattan street
asking for small change when Merrie Harris, 45, lent
him her Platinum AmEx card. Onlookers were shocked
to see the woman hand it over and walk off. Valentine
said he bought deodorant, body wash, a pack of
cigarettes and bottled water, all costing about $25. A
short time later, he went back to the restaurant where
Ms Harris was eating to return the card to her. For his
efforts, he was awarded the title of Most Honest Homeless Man in the City. Valentine also received
an offer from a New York-based airline to apply to be a flight attendant and $5,000 from an
anonymous Texan.
Ms Harris, an advertising executive, was also applauded for her act of generosity and trust. She
told reporters she never doubted Mr Valentine would do anything dishonest with her card, saying:
"What he did was no surprise to me.” She asked: “Are we only supposed to trust people we know?”
Valentine said he never thought about abusing Harris’ trust in him: "I wasn't tempted at all. She
trusted me, and I didn't want to violate that trust," he said. He added: "It sets a goodexample that
people in need – like me - can and should be trusted." What is now in question is the security
procedures of the store Valentine shopped in. Staff obviously did not check his signature or look at
the photo id on the AmEx card.

When a woman requested a whole rooster from the butcher I work
with, he didn’t let on that the bird he presented her was the last one.
“Do you have one that’s a little larger?” she asked.
“Of course,” said the butcher. He took the roaster behind the
counter, away from view, and made a lot of noise rolling it around the
ice, as if he was searching for just the right chicken. He then showed
the same bird to her.
“Better” she said. “Do you have one with a little more meat on it?”
He took the chicken, rolled it in the ice and offered it up a third time.
“Great,” the woman said. “I’ll take all three.”

CANINE SUICIDE PUZZLE
Can dogs commit suicide? That is the puzzling
question being asked by dog lovers and animal
behaviourists today in a small town in Scotland. At least
five dogs are known to have leaped 13 metres to their
deaths from a bridge in the town of Dumbarton. The
bridge is now known as Rover’s Leap and is next to a
supposedly haunted mansion built in 1863, which was
used as the location for a BBC TV series called Tales from
the Madhouse. The latest suicidal canine completely
distressed its owner by suddenly making a beeline for the
bridge and jumping to its death. Animal psychologists are
perplexed at this abnormal behaviour and are keen to
understand what is triggering it. Dogs are not like
lemmings*, which jump to their deaths in thousands, but are fully able to understand heights, just
as humans are. Dogs would also have no reason to take their own lives – something unheard of in
the canine world, especially happy pet dogs from good families. All dog owners in the area have
been advised to keep their dogs on a leash when they approach the bridge in future, until this
mystery has been cleared up.

SUNBED: CANCER RISK FOR TEENS
A World Health Organization (WHO) press
release has warned against the use of sunbeds,
highlighting the risks they pose of developing deadly
skin cancers. They particularly recommend teenagers
avoid sunbed use, “It is known that young people
who get burnt from exposure to ultraviolet will have
a greater risk of developing melanoma [the most
dangerous form of skin cancer] later in life.” Research proves there is a direct link between the use
of sunbeds and cancer. The press release warns that “some sunbeds have the capacity to emit levels
of ultraviolet (UV) radiation many times stronger than the mid-day summer sun”. Despite this little-
known fact, sunbeds remain very popular with young people, especially women. Teenagers have
become obsessed with getting or maintaining a sun tan, which has become a very powerful fashion
statement.
The WHO offers some scary statistics for sun and sunbed worshippers. It estimates there to be
“132,000 cases of malignant melanoma … annually, and an estimated 66,000 deaths from
malignant melanoma and other skin cancers.” It says fairest-skinned people, where the sun tanning
culture is strongest, are most at risk: Australians, New Zealanders, North Americans and northern
Europeans. Other very real dangers include eye damage; premature skin ageing (wrinkles); and a
reduction in the effectiveness of the immune system, which can lead to a greater risk of infectious
diseases.

THE RIGHT OF RETURN
Recently, Nebraska introduced a law that allows parents to
abandon their unwanted children in designated hospitals - no
questions asked. The law was designed to help young women
who had got pregnant by mistake to be able to give up their
babies without fear of prosecution. However, the law was so
vaguely defined that it effectively allows any parent to
abandon any child up to the age of 18 at one of the hospitals.
Numerous teenagers have already been dumped. For instance,
one single father handed over nine of his ten children - aged
between 20 months and 17 years old. Now people from out
of state are taking advantage of the law. In October 2008 a
14-year-old girl from Iowa was dumped in an Omaha hospital
by her grandparents. That girl was eventually returned home
but a week later a woman from Michigan drove for 12 hours
in order to get rid of her 13-year-old son.

LIKE A CHILD WITH SENSE
BY KAY ITOI
Are you lonely? Do you have trouble getting up on time?
If you live in Japan, help is on the way. Starting this week,
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries will begin taking orders for
Wakamaru, the world’s first communicative home-use robot.
Those willing to pay $14,300 will get a one- meter-tall bright
yellow companion who will follow them around, keep them on
schedule, chatter idly and even worry if they get stuck in traffic.
Life with Wakamaru will be a lot like having a precocious
child who likes to house-sit and never throws tantrums. In the
morning, the robot will come to your bed to wake you at a
preprogrammed hour. While you dress, he’ll recite the day’s
headlines and advise if you should take an umbrella. He moves
about smoothly on a wheeled pedestal, and will even see you off
at the door. (cont.)

LIKE A CHILD WITH SENSE (CONT.)
Wakamaru’s enormous round eyes and childlike gestures are what first attract people, says
Junji Suzuki, a Mitsubishi Heavy manager. The robot can recognize up to 10,000 words – and
respond with phrases from “I love you” to “The typhoon season is here!” When he can’t make
sense of what you say, he beeps and inclines his head. The way he looks up at you ‘just melts
you,” says Suzuki. 
The robot goes wherever you go, following sound and movement. When you are relaxing on
the sofa, he’ll come near and start talking nonsense – just like a real kid. But he’s less self-absorbed
than most children; Wakamaru panics if you don’t get home by the promised time, and will send
a message to your mobile. If you fail to respond, he’ll start contacting your family and friends.
Wakamaru can also remember 10 faces and emits a warning when an unfamiliar figure enters.
Mitsubishi Heavy will ship just 100 units by the year-end, and depending on the response –
which GOOD LIFE predicts will be enthusiastic – it will decide how much to expand production in
the future.
Wakamaru will soon have some robotic friends – or rivals. Several Japanese high-tech giants,
including Sony and Fujitsu, formed a consortium last year to develop domestic robots. Now, if only
they could make one that does the laundry.

HAVE NICE HOLIDAYS!!!
(Unknown writer)
Well, Christmas is coming and what can we do to make it happier
for everybody? I think this year people should do something different
to celebrate it. I myself won’t buy so many things to me. I’ll buy a lot
of simple, but nice things to give to the poor people. There‘s a house
for homeless kids near my house. My family and I are used to giving
them some Christmas cakes, known as “panetones “, and clothes and
shoes too.
I would give the homeless kids a home as a Christmas present if
I had a lot of money or a lot of houses. As I have only a lot of love in
my heart, I’ll donate some to the sad and homeless people. I hope, one
day I will be very rich and then I’ll help these sad and abandoned
people to find a good job and a decent place to live.
This may have been a difficult year for you too, but I’m sure you
had something to eat every single day and also a nice bed and a warm
shower every night. So, think about what you have just read and try to
help someone who really needs you.
I am sure you will feel very happy after that and, it’s possible,take
a friend with to this happiness journey. God bless you and alI your
family and friends…
Have nice holidays!!! See you next year!!!

CALL OF THE CHILD
One day I found my three-year-old son with the telephone, which he quickly hung
up when he saw me. “What were you doing?” I asked him. He said that he had
called his Aunty Tara. “How could you have called Aunty Tara?” I asked. “You don’t
even know her number.” “Yes, I do. I called her,” he replied. I wasted a lot of breath
trying to convince him that he didn’t know her number, but he insisted he had made
the call. “Okay,” I said finally. “What did she say, then, if you called her?” He
answered, “She told me I had the wrong number.”
