The release of Bredrock's third album was more than just a landmark in the career of a talented band. New Life launched a movement that effectively redesigned the specification of rock music in this country for the rest of the decade. Out went the earnest angst, plain-shirted drabness and overdriven guitars of a previous era; in came a lighter blend of melodious homegrown styles. A mix of social observation and strident anger mingled easily here with the sound of fairground organs and northern brass bands. Humour and irony were well to the fore, as were the voices that felt no need to disguise their origins.


1. New Life is the title of __________.

Up to about 1915, movies were short and programmes were made up to several works. Then D. W. Griffith and others began making longer films which provided the same powerful emotional appeal as did melodrama and presented spectacles far beyond what the theatre could offer. Consequently, after World War I increasing numbers of spectators deserted the theatre for the movies.
This trend was accelerated in the late 1920's as a result of two new elements. In 1927 sound was added to the previously silent film, and thus one of the theatre's principal claims to superiority vanished. In 1929 a serious economic depression began. Since audiences could go to the movies for a fraction of what it cost to see a play, theatre-going became a luxury which few could afford, especially as the depression deepened.
By the end of World War II, the American theatre had been reduced to about thirty theatres in New York City and a small number of touring companies originated there.


1. One thing that made people choose the movies over the theatre was ____________.

Every year students in many countries learn English. Some of these students are young people. other are teenagers. Many are adults. Some learn at school, others study by themselves. A few learn English just by hearing the language in film, on television, in the office or among their friends. But not many are lucky enough to do that. Most people must work hard to learn another language.
Many boys and girls learn English at school because it is one of their subjects. They study their own language, mathematics and English. In England, or America, or Australia, many boys and girls study their own language, which is English, and mathematics and another language, perhaps French, or German or Spanish.
Many adults learn English, because it is useful for their work. Teenagers often learn English for their higher studies, because some of their books are in English at the college or university. Other people learn English because they want to read newspapers or magazines in English.

Hatred is a fundamental human emotion that has deep root in society and culture. Psychologists believe that group identity and cohesion depend to a large extent on having a common enemy. It seems that the existence of "bad guys" is an important element in defining who we are within a large realm. It could be said that human beings love to hate.
The first signs appear early in life when a child, faced with blame for some mistakes, immediately accuses another child or an inanimate object such as a teddy bear. Later, on the schoolyard playground, children in rival groups vie for attention and influence. These basic responses translate into more powerful emotions later in life.
One area where deep-rooted hatred is exhibited is in the ethnic clashes that constantly occur around the globe. These conflicts are not only over territory but also involve emotional issues of group identity and unity of purpose. For many there is no "us" without a "them" to hate. In a world where conflict between super powers is on the decline, it may be that humanity will brave difficulty adapting to a state of mutual respect and cooperation.

Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally, spelling, however, cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn and instruct people. While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques express human thoughts and feelings.

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