to British shores (2) Since 1980, 18 new fish
species have been cought off the coast of
Cornwall (3) As the water warms up, they feel
the need to move northward (4) Since they are
cold-blooded creatures, they have to find
suitable surroundings in which to regulate their
temperature (5) Indeed, between 1960 and 1980 no

52-Glasgow is now the largest city in Scotland
and, indeed, is home to a quarter of the
population of Scotland. This, however, has not
always been the case
................................ After 1707, it
grew at a phenomenal rate both as an
international port and as a major industrial
center.
a-The University of Glasgow is one of the best
in the cauntry.
b-The name probably means "dear green place"

institutions in the city

by wind-swept moorlands.
53-In 1912, a German weatherman named Alfred
Wegener declared that all the continents of the
world had once been joined together and were now
drifting around the face of the Earth giants
rafts. At first, Wegener's claim attracted
little interest. ................... When this
still failed to provoke a reaction, he brought
out a second edition. That did it. Many of the
world's top expert on geology gradually began to
agree with him.
a-A decade later he died, and his mad idea died
with him.
b-He published a small book on "continental
drift" in 1913.
c-But by the early 1960s, geologists were
discovering evidence to support this theory.
d-He was right about continental drift but
unable to explain why it happaned.
e-Today, continental drift is regarded as a
science and is routinely taught at universities.
54-On
December 5, 1952,
Londoners received a rude awakening. They opened
their curtains to fınd out a choking dark cloud
hanging over the city: a corrosive mixture of
fog and smoke and gas ..........................
That week there were more deaths in
London
than at the height of the cholera epidemic of
1966.
a-For some inexplicable reason the fog stayed
for the next four days causing an epidemic of
bronchitis.
b-Indeed, air pollution had never been regarded
as a serious matter.
c-Even so, it was until 1956 that the Clean Air
Act came into force.
d-Consequantly smokoless zones were established
to reduce domestic sources of smoke, and in
these only smokeless fuels would be burnt.
e-Those four, dark smoky days marked a turning
point public and political thinking about
pollution

55-When tourists eventually start arriving in
space, they will need somewhere to stay.
................................. A three-ay
stay at these hotels will cost rougly $40.000,
but they are confident the public will be
prepared to pay.
a-Yhey are hoping to produce a reusable rocket
large enough the carry three people 100 km into
space and back.
b-Scientist and researchers worlwide were
consequently trying to make space tourism
affordable.
c-Orbiting space hotels have already been
designed by a Japenese construction giant and a
group of inrenational hotel architects.
d-A notable reduction in prices finally opened
up the aviation industry to general public.
e- The problem is not simply to launch people
into space but to see that they remain
comfortable throughout the flight.
56-About seven out of ten fires are due to the
hand of man. Either accidental or deliberate,
one to products, and processes of materials and
the remaining two to defects in buildings. The
most dangerous products in the home are plastics
and rubber, which give off highly toxic fumes
when burning. Videocassettes and
loam-backed-carpets are major
culprits......................
a-The number of the fire deaths has shown a
steady fall in recent years, but the risk of a
blaze can never be ruled out
b-If a means of escape does not exist, these hot
gases develop a pressure on the walls of the
upper parts of the structure
c-When an opening is made to reach the fire, the
admission of oxygen causes these gases on
explode
d-Once air is heated, it becomes lighter, rises
and seeks escape through any openings that may
be available
e-Although the foam in used in furniture in now
treated so that it is less flammable, it still
helps to spread the blaze.
57-For many centuries before the coming of the
first Europeans, Arabs had been trading with the
island
of
Madagascar, and had established various
settlements on the coast........................
During the ensuing three centuries, sporadic
attempts at colonization were made by both Dutch

after the French had been in touch with the
island fore more than a century, a French
company was established to trade with the
island, and in 1643 Fort Dauphin was founded on
the southeast coast.
a-But in 1500, these island was discovered by
the Portuguese, and thus attracted Europeans
b-It was not until the last year of line 18th
