The Cultural Significance and Global Adaptability of Rice

I. Over the centuries, rice has become a part of the traditions of many cultures. In some
societies, it is traditional to throw a handful of rice on newlywed couples, symbolizing the
wish for a large family and prosperity. In India, rice is traditionally the first food that bride
offers her new husband. It is typical for people to leave offerings of rice in Buddhist temples.
II. The basic recipe for cooking rice is easy. First you need to bring 2 cups of water to boil.
When the water is boiling, add 1 cup of rice. Cover the pot. As soon as the water boils again,
reduce the heat. Let the rice cook for 15 to 20 minutes. The rice is ready when all the water
is absorbed. It‘s now possible to buy rice cooking machines that cook perfect rice every time,
especially in large quantities. This is particularly helpful in Asian cultures, where families
often eat rice with every meal.
III. Rice is the primary source of nutrition for more than half of the world‘s population.
Countries as different as Japan, India, Nigeria and Mexico use rice in their national cuisine.
In Chinese, the word for rice is the same as the word for food. And in Thailand, when you
call your family to a meal, you say ―eat rice.‖ So, it‘s easy to understand why the 2008 global
rice shortage was a real crisis for billions of people. In some countries the shortage led to big
price increases. Some governments had to control the sale of rice.
IV. Many people consider rice to be one of the healthiest of possible food choices. It has no
sodium or cholesterol, and almost no fat. One half cup of rice has approximately 100 calories,
and those calories are rich in important vitamins and minerals, including folic acid, iron and
zinc. Many athletes eat rice because as a carbohydrate it is a great source of energy. Rice even
has certain chemicals in it that are supposed to improve your mood. Brown rice is the
healthiest of all because it is 100% grain.
V. Archeologists believe that rice has been grown as a source of food for at least 4000 years.
It was first grown in China, and then introduced to India. Over the centuries the practice of
growing rice has spread literally across the globe. Today rice is grown in Peru, Egypt, and
even the United States, but over 90% of the world‘s rice is still grown in Asian countries.
Rice is best grown in wet, subtropical climates, and in many countries it is still cultivated
using intensive human and animal labor.
VI. One of the amazing things about rice is how adaptable it is. It is an essential ingredient
in cuisines all around the world — cuisines as different as Japanese, Mexican, and West
African. The Japanese combine sticky rice with raw fish to create numerous varieties of
sushi. Mexican rice, flavored with cumin and tomatoes, is a colorful side dish. Every
country in West Africa has its own version of a regional rice dish called jollof, often served
with fried plantain, a kind of banana.

Part 4
Read the following text for questions 21 - 29.
Eating meat
Do you hate the idea of animal-free meat? Many people do. Unsurprisingly, livestock
farmers are often furiously opposed. More surprisingly, so are some vegans: ―Why can‘t
people eat tofu and lentils, like me?‖ Well, the new products – plant-based, microbial and
cell-cultured meat and dairy – are not aimed at vegans, but at the far greater number who
like the taste and texture of animals. Many others instinctively refuse the idea of food that
seems familiar, but isn‘t.
So, here‘s a question for all the sceptics. What do you intend to do about the soaring global
demand for animal products and its devastating impacts? Already, 60% of the mammals on
Earth by weight are livestock. Humans account for 36%, and wild mammals for just 4%. Of
birds, poultry makes up 71%, and wild species only 29%. While the human population is
growing at 1% a year, the livestock population is growing at 2.4%. Global average meat
consumption per person is 43kg a year, but swiftly heading towards the UK level of 82kg.
The reason is Bennett‘s Law: as people become richer, they eat more protein and fat,
especially the flesh and secretions of animals.

So, if you don‘t like the new technologies, what solution do you propose? I keep asking,
and the response is either furious or evasive. ―It‘s the wrong question!‖ ―Who‘s paying
you?‖ ―Do you want us to eat slime?‖ So far, only one of the people I‘ve asked has
answered it directly: the food campaigner Vandana Shiva. ―You blindly echo the myth that
as people get richer they eat more meat. Indians continue to be vegetarians even when they
become rich. Food cultures are shaped by cultural and ecological values.‖ But meat-eating
in India is increasing rapidly, though many people do it secretly. In other words, despite
religious proscriptions, enforced with vigilantism and, in some cases, murder, Bennett‘s
Law still applies. It‘s as if we were urging people to burn less fossil fuel without offering a
replacement: no solar, wind, geothermal or nuclear power. This issue is just as urgent,
arguably even more so, as livestock farming attacks every Earth system. It‘s the primary
agent of habitat destruction and wildlife loss. It‘s causing riverside and dead zones at sea. It
generates more greenhouse gas emissions than all the world‘s transport. It sprawls across
vast tracts of the planet, inflicting massive carbon and ecological opportunity costs. Both
historically and currently, livestock farming is probably the world‘s most powerful agent of
colonial land grabbing and the displacement of Indigenous people. Meat is consuming the
planet.

Part 5

Read the following text for questions 30 - 35.

In recent years, the concept of mind reading has captured the imaginations of scientists,
researchers, and the general public. The ability to peek into someone's thoughts and unravel
the mysteries of the human mind has long been a topic of fascination. While mind reading
was once considered a mere illusion of science fiction, advancements in technology and
neuroscience have brought us closer to understanding this enigmatic realm.

Since ancient times, humans have been intrigued by the idea of deciphering others'
thoughts. From the practices of ancient seers to the mesmerizing feats of magicians, mind
reading has consistently held a place in our collective consciousness. However, it was not
until the advent of modern science that serious investigations into the phenomenon began.
Today, mind reading encompasses a broad range of scientific disciplines, including
psychology, neurobiology, and computer science.

Understanding how mind reading works necessitates an examination of the human brain.
Researchers have discovered that the brain produces electrical signals and patterns when
engaged in cognitive activities. By using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI),
electroencephalography (EEG), and other advanced techniques, scientists can observe and
analyze these brain activities to gain insights into a person's thoughts. Machine learning
algorithms have also proven valuable in deciphering brain patterns and translating them into
meaningful information.

While advancements have been made, mind reading remains a complex and imperfect
science. The intricacies of the human mind, with its vast array of thoughts, emotions, and
memories, pose significant challenges. Additionally, individual variations in brain activity
and the ethical considerations surrounding privacy and consent present additional obstacles.
Researchers continue to grapple with these limitations as they strive to unlock the full
potential of mind reading technology.

The applications of mind reading extend beyond mere curiosity. In the field of medicine,
mind reading techniques offer promising prospects for diagnosing and treating mental
illnesses. By deciphering brain patterns associated with conditions such as depression,
anxiety, and schizophrenia, clinicians can develop more targeted and effective therapies.
Mind reading also holds potential in enhancing communication for individuals with severe
speech or motor impairments.

As mind reading technology progresses, ethical questions come to the forefront. The
invasion of privacy and the potential misuse of such capabilities raise concerns. It becomes

12
Multilevel Exam Book 4-edition JamoliddinNuriddinov

imperative to establish strict regulations to protect individuals' rights and prevent


unauthorized access to their thoughts. Public discourse and the involvement of ethical
committees are necessary to strike a balance between scientific advancements and ethical
considerations:

The concept of mind reading, once confined to the realms of fantasy, is rapidly becoming a
reality. The ongoing research in this field promises to unravel the mysteries of the human
mind, revolutionize healthcare, and enhance communication. While the ethical and practical
challenges associated with mind reading must be addressed, the potential benefits are
undeniable.

For questions 30-33, fill in the missing information in the numbered spaces.
Write no more than ONE WORD and / or A NUMBER for each question.

(30) _____________ utilize advanced techniques such as functional magnetic resonance


imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography to observe and interpret brain activity. Mind
reading research intersects (31) ___________ scientific disciplines, including psychology
and neurobiology. In the realm of medicine, mind reading technologies offer potential for
diagnosing and treating (32) ________________ conditions by analyzing brainwave
patterns. The potential breach of (33) _____________________ is a critical ethical issue
tied to the advancement of mind reading technologies.

For questions 34-35, choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D.


Mark your answers on the answer sheet.

34. What is one of the primary challenges in developing mind reading technology?

A) The inability of scientists to detect electrical signals in the brain.


B) The complex and varied nature of human thoughts, emotions, and memories.
C) The lack of interest from the scientific community in mind reading research.
D) The difficulty in creating functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) machines.

35. Why is public discourse important in the context of advancing mind reading
technology?

A) To promote widespread adoption of the technology.


B) To ensure that only certain groups have access to mind reading capabilities.
C) To address the ethical concerns related to privacy and consent.
D) To encourage the development of more advanced machine learning algorithms.

What’s in a name

When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their
personal preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up
with a child‘s name. And in some cases, the time of a child‘s birth influences how the
child‘s (1) ________ is determined. In many European cultures, names are typically chosen
by parents. Parents‘ choice for their child‘s name may be based on names of relatives or
ancestors within their particular (2) ____________ For example, in Italy, children are
traditionally named after their grandparents. The (3) ____________ generally use the
father‘s parents‘ names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother‘s
parents‘ names. Similarly, some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives
who have died. This tradition is seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of
Death. Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child‘s grandfather or a fortune-teller
chooses the child‘s name. In contrast to the (4) ____________ of naming children after
relatives, the child‘s name is chosen to influence the child‘s character. For example, names
may be based on a connection to certain elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal.
Or the name might include a written character meaning beauty, strength, or kindness. In
certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child‘s
name. In Ghana‘s Akan (5) _____________ the day a child is born determines the child‘s
name. But each day has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a (6) ___________
born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both
Kofi and Afua are names meaning ―wanderer‖ or ―explorer.‖ Children with these names are
seen as travelers. No matter where the name comes from, a child‘s name is the first gift in
life. Whether it is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, the name reflects
something about a child‘s culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and
respected.

Make Most of Your Free Time

I. Studies say that people nowadays have more free time than ever before. Then why doesn't
it feel that way? These days, our free time is usually spent watching television, using
computers or communicating on our phones. Images and information are constantly flashing
into our brains, so it's no wonder we don't feel as if we have really switched off. To really
wind down and help us regain our energy levels, it is important to use our free time wisely..
II. Don't let anything else encroach on your free time. Ignore the washing up and the
vacuuming. Don't check your inbox for messages and turn off your mobile phone.
Otherwise, the lines between free time and everyday live will begin to blur, and you won't
feel refreshed.
III. In many free time activities, we take the role of consumer. When we watch TV, play
video games or read, we are only passively involved. Take on the role of producer for a
change. Build a model, write a blog or make an animation film. You will use a different part
of your brains and will feel more energised as a result.
IV. But don't go overboard. Many people worry too much about their free time activities.
They want to do things that will impress their friends, look good on their résumés or help
them get a better job. But free time isn't about that. It is about doing an activity for
enjoyment's sake, so don't let outside pressures influence your choice.
V. You'll really know you're using your time wisely if what you're doing helps other people.
So, find out what's going on in the community and lend a hand. Visit the elderly or help out
in a children's club. If socializing is not your thing, why not volunteer for a wildlife
organisation?
VI. Once you're relaxed and energised, you can think about what you'd like to improve in
your life. Want to get fit? Learn a skill? Improve your job prospects? There are plenty of
groups, clubs and classes you can join that will set you on a completely new life path. So
what are you waiting for? Get out there and enjoy yourself!

Part 4
Read the following text for questions 21 - 29.
A varied career
I arrive for my interview with Chloe Kelling and I‘m asked to wait in the garden. I hardly
have time to start looking round at the carefully tended flowerbeds when Chloe appears.
Every bit as tall and striking as I‘d expected, Chloe emerges from the house wearing an
oversized man‘s jacket, a delicately patterned top and jeans. Chloe is known for her slightly
quirky sense of fashion and, of course, she looks great as she makes her way towards me
through the flowerbeds. ‗Let‘s talk in my office,‘ she says, leading the way not back to the
house, but instead to an ancient caravan parked up next to it. As we climb inside the
compact little van, the smell of fresh baking greets us. A tiny table is piled high with
cupcakes, each iced in a different colour. Chloe‘s been busy, and there‘s a real sense of
playing tea parties in a secret den! But what else should I have expected from a woman with
such a varied and interesting career? Chloe originally trained as a make-up artist, having left
her home in the country at nineteen to try and make her name as a model in London, and
soon got woA in adverts and the fashion business. ‗I went to Japan to work for a short
period, but felt very homesick at first,‘ she recalls. ‗It was very demanding work and,
though I met loads of nice people, it was too much to take in at nineteen. If I‘d stayed
longer, I might have settled in better.‘
Alongside the modelling, Chloe was also beginning to make contacts in the music business.
‗I‘d been the typical kid, singing with a hairbrush in front of the mirror, dreaming of being a
star one day,‘ she laughs. She joined a girl band which ‗broke up before we got anywhere‘,
before becoming the lead singer with the band Whoosh, which features on a best-selling
clubbing album. Unusually though, Chloe also sings with two other bands, one based in
Sweden and another in London, and each of these has a distinct style. It was her work with
Whoosh that originally led to Chloe‘s link with Sweden. She was offered a song-writing job
there with a team that was responsible for songs for some major stars, but gradually became
more involved in writing music for her own band. Although she now divides her time
between London and Sweden, her first stay there turned out to be much longer than she‘d
bargained for. ‗The rooms are very tall over there and so people have these rather high beds
that you climb up to,‘ she explains. ‗I fell as I climbed up the ladder and cracked three ribs.
Although the people at the hospital were very kind, I was stuck there for a while, which was
very frustrating. Sneezing and laughing were so painful at first, let alone singing!‘
It was while recovering from her injuries that Chloe hit upon the idea of staging what she
calls vintage fairs. ‗It was snowing in Sweden and I wanted something nice to look forward
to.‘ Chloe had always loved vintage clothes, particularly from the 1950s, and decided to
stage an event for others who shared her passion. The first fair was held in her home village
and featured stalls selling all sorts of clothes and crafts dating back to the 1950s. It was a
19
Multilevel Exam Book 4-edition JamoliddinNuriddinov

huge hit, with 300 people turning up. ‗When I had the idea of the first fair, it was only
meant to be a one-off, but we had so many compliments, I decided to go ahead with more,‘
says Chloe. ‗There's something for all ages and people find old things have more character
than stuff you buy in modern shops. It also fits perfectly with the idea of recycling.‘
Looking round Chloe‘s caravan, I can see what she means.

For questions 21-24, choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D. Mark your answers on

around a village green with a church and ancient manor house as a backdrop. This common
form of the village has its roots in the medieval period when many villages started out as a
cluster of agricultural dwellings. Today farmsteads tend to be scattered about the landscape,
but back in the medieval period those working on the land tended to live in small nucleated
settlements (villages) and worked ‗open-field‘ agriculture where land wasn‘t enclosed. In
fact, over much of Britain in the period up to 1800, it would have been unusual to have seen
a farm or cottage outside of a settlement boundary. By the time that the Domesday Book
was written in 1086 most of the good agricultural land in Britain was already under
cultivation, and England was a densely populated country. Two centuries later nucleated
settlements were to be found over much of Britain, typically consisting of well-organised
village settlements sitting within open fields.
Over lowland Britain on good soil you would typically find a settlement every couple of
miles, and the communities would use the open agricultural land around where they lived.
The average village would have its church, manor house, and cottage tenements all
clustered together, and the open land around would usually be divided into thin strips. In
some villages, you can still see the remnants of medieval strip field systems around the
periphery of the settlement. There would often be meadows, pasture and woodland held ‗in
common, and only the lord of the manor would have his own, private land or ‗demesne‘. In
the medieval village, virtually everyone would have earned their living on the territory,
hence the community had to be relatively self-sufficient.
‗Green Villages‘ were a common village form, where houses clustered around a central
green of common land. They are often the remnants of planned settlements introduced after
the Norman Conquest in the 19th century. It is suggested that this arrangement allowed for
easier defence, especially compared to the village form most common before the Normans,
which was simple clusters of farms. However, there is also evidence of ‗village‘ greens in
Anglo- Saxon settlements, and even at Romano-British sites. The village green was soon
adopted as the main social space within a village, as well as its focal point alongside the
church or chapel. Village greens often take a triangular form, usually reflecting the fact that
the village was at the meeting of three roads. The continuing importance of the village
green to modern-day communities is reflected in the fact that this is usually where the war
memorial is seen, as well as village notice boards, where local cricket matches are played,
and where public benches are placed. The Open Spaces Society states that in 2005 there
were about 3,650 registered greens in England and about 220 in Wales.

Employment in Japan
I. Every autumn, when recruitment of new graduates and school leavers begins, major cities
in Japan are flooded with students hunting for a job. Wearing suits for the first time, they run
from one interview to another. The season is crucial for many students, as their whole lives
may be determined during this period
II. In Japan, lifetime employment is commonly practised by large companies. While people
working in small companies and those working for sub-contractors do not, in general, enjoy
the advantages conferred by the large companies, there is a general expectation that
employees will, in fact, remain more or less permanently in the same job.
III. Unlike in many Western countries where companies employ people whose skills can be
effective immediately, Japanese companies select applicants with potential who can be
trained to become suitable employees. For this reason, recruiting employees is an important
exercise for companies, as they invest a lot of time and money in training new staff. This is
basically true both for factory workers and for professionals. Professionals who have studied
subjects which are of immediate use in the workplace, such as industrial engineers, are very
often placed in factories and transferred from one section to another. By gaining experience
in several different areas and by working in close contact with workers, the engineers are
believed, in the long run, to become more effective members of the company. Workers too
feel more involved by working with professionals and by being allowed to voice their
opinions. Loyalty is believed to be cultivated in this type of egalitarian working environment.
IV. Because of this system of training employees to be all-rounders, mobility between
companies is low. Wages are set according to educational background or initial field of
employment, ordinary graduates being employed in administration, engineers in engineering
and design departments and so on. Both promotions and wage increases tend to be tied to
seniority, though some differences may arise later on as a result of ability and business
performance. Wages are paid monthly, and the net sum, after the deduction of tax, is usually
paid directly into a bank account. As well as salary, a bonus is usually paid twice a year. This
is a custom that dates back to the time when employers gave special allowances so that
employees could properly celebrate bon, a Buddhist festival held in mid-July in Tokyo, but
on other dates in other regions. The festival is held to appease the souls of ancestors. The
second bonus is distributed at New Year. Recently, bonuses have also been offered as a way
of allowing workers a share in the profits that their hard work has gained.
V. Many female graduates complain that they are not given equal training and equal
opportunity in comparison to male graduates. Japanese companies generally believe that
female employees will eventually leave to get married and have children. It is also true that,
as well as the still-existing belief among women themselves that nothing should stand in the
way of child-rearing, the extended hours of work often do not allow women to continue their
careers after marriage.

28
Multilevel Exam Book 4-edition JamoliddinNuriddinov

VI. Disappointed career-minded female graduates often opt to work for foreign firms. Since
most male graduates prefer to join Japanese firms with their guaranteed security, foreign
firms are often keen to employ female graduates as their potential tends to be greater than
that of male applicants.

Part 4
Read the following text for questions 21 - 29.
Learning lessons from the past
A. Many past societies collapsed or vanished, leaving behind monumental ruins such as those
that the poet Shelley imagined in his sonnet, Ozymandias. By collapse, I mean a drastic
decrease in human population size and, or political, economic, social complexity, over
considerable area, for an extended time. By those standards, most people would consider the
following past societies to have been famous victims of full-fledged collapses rather than of
just minor declines: the Anasazi and Cahokia within the boundaries of the modem US, the
Maya cities in Central America, Moche and Tiwanaku societies in South America, Norse
Greenland, Mycenean Greece and Minoan Crete in Europe, Great Zimbabwe in Africa,
Angkor Wat and the Harappan Indus Valley cities in Asia, and Easter Island in the Pacific
Ocean.
B. The monumental ruins left behind by those past societies hold a fascination for all of us.
We marvel at them when as children we first learn of them through pictures. When we grow
up, many of US plan vacations in order to experience them at first hand. We feel drawn to
their often spectacular and haunting beauty, and also to the mysteries that they pose. The
scales of the ruins testify to the former wealth and power of their builders. Yet these builders
vanished, abandoning the great structures that they had created at such effort. How could a
society that was once so mighty end up collapsing?
C. It has long been suspected that many of those mysterious abandonments were at least
partly triggered by ecological problems: people inadvertently destroying the environmental
resources on which their societies depended. This suspicion of unintended ecological suicide
(ecocide) has been confirmed by discoveries made in recent decades by archaeologists,
climatologists, historians, paleontologists, and palynologists (pollen scientists). The
processes through which past societies have undermined themselves by damaging their
environments fall into eight categories, whose relative importance differs from case to case:
deforestation and habitat destruction, soil problems, water management problems,
overhunting, overfishing, effects of introduced species on native species, human population
growth, and increased impact of people.
D. Those past collapses tended to follow somewhat similar courses constituting variations on
a theme. Writers find it tempting to draw analogies between the course of human societies
and the course of individual human lives - to talk of a society‘s birth, growth, peak, old age
and eventual death. But that metaphor proves erroneous for many past societies: they
declined rapidly after reaching peak numbers and power, and those rapid declines must have
come as a surprise and shock to their citizens. Obviously, too, this trajectory is not one that
all past societies followed unvaryingly to completion: different societies collapsed to
different degrees and in somewhat different ways, while many societies did not collapse at
all.

30
Multilevel Exam Book 4-edition JamoliddinNuriddinov

E. Today many people feel that environmental problems overshadow all the other threats to
global civilisation. These environmental problems include the same ways that undermined
past societies, plus four new ones: human-caused climate change, build up of toxic chemicals
in the environment, energy shortages, and full human utilisation of the Earth‘s photosynthetic
capacity. But the seriousness of these current environmental problems is vigorously debated.
Are the risks greatly exaggerated, or conversely are they underestimated? Will modem
technology solve our problems, or is it creating new problems faster than it solves old ones?
When we deplete one resource (e.g wood, oil, or ocean fish), can we count on being able to
substitute some new resource (e.g plastics, wind and solar energy, or farmed fish)? Isn‘t the
rate of human population growth declining, such that we are already on course for the
world‘s population to level off at some manageable number of people?
F. Questions like this illustrate why those famous collapses of past civilisations have taken
on more meaning than just that of a romantic mystery. Perhaps there are some practical
lessons that we could learn from all those past collapses. But there are also differences
between the modem world and its problems, and those past societies and their problems. We
shouldn‘t be so naive as to think that study of the past will yield simple solutions, directly
transferable to our societies today. We differ from past societies in some respects that put us
at lower risk than them; some of those respects often mentioned include our powerful
technology (ie its beneficial effects), globalisation, modem medicine, and greater knowledge
of past societies and of distant modem societies. We also differ from past societies in some
respects that put us at greater risk than them: again, our potent technology (ie its unintended
destructive effects), globalisation (such that now a problem in one part of the world affects
all the rest), the dependence of millions of US on modem medicine for our survival, and our
much larger human population. Perhaps we can still learn from the past, but only if we think
carefully about its lessons.

Part 5
Read the following text for questions 30 - 35.
Giving and receiving feedback
Your manager stops you and says she needs to have a word about your performance in the
recent project. You worry about it all weekend, wondering what you might have done wrong.
When you step into her office on Monday morning she begins by praising you for the good
work you've done on the project, and you wonder if this is the obligatory praise that starts off
the typical "feedback sandwich'. You know how the feedback sandwich goes: say something
nice, say what you really want to say, say something nice again.
In an attempt to inject some positivity into their feedback, many man- agers rely on
sandwiching negative feedback between two positive comments. However, when feedback
becomes such a routine, employees can start to perceive positive feedback as simply a form
of sugarcoating the negatives, thus diminishing its value. Instead, positive feedback should
not simply be seen as something to cushion the negative, but should be delivered so as to
reinforce and encourage good performance. Below are three tips to help you make positive
feedback count.
1. Don't always follow positive feedback with negative feedback
When positive and negative feedback always appear to go hand in hand, the positives can
become devalued and ignored. Ensure there are times when positive feedback is given for its
own sake and resist the temptation to offer constructive criticism.
2. Cultivate a 'growth mindset'
Psychologist and 'growth mindset' proponent Carol Dweck spoke of the plasticity of the brain
and our ability to develop skills and talents that we might not have been good at to start with.
Many of us tend to focus our praise on the end result and seemingly innate talents, e.g. 'You
really have an eye for details' or 'You have a real talent for organizing events'. However,
research suggests that by focusing on the process of how things are done - praising effort,
experimentation and problem-solving strategies-we can encourage the development of new
skills and the continued honing of talents.
3. Create a culture of offering positive feedback
Make giving positive feedback part of your team/department/company culture. Don't just
wait for special moments like appraisals to give feedback. Offer informal positive feedback
when making small talk or when walking down a corridor. Feedback doesn't have to only
come from the higher ranks either. Encourage peer feedback among team members and
colleagues and actively ask them for positive comments on each other's performances on
tasks. It might take time to counter the effects of an environment where there is a cynical
view of positive feedback, but in the long run, by embracing positive feedback, you can not
only enhance working performance but also enrich the quality of life in the workplace.

The World's Great Rivers


I. The fifth longest river in the world is the Yenisei which flows north from Mongolia
through Russia to the Arctic Ocean. Originally, nomadic tribes — the Kit and Yugh people
— lived along the banks of the Yenisei. Russian explorers first reached its shores in 1605.
Much of the Yenisei is ice-bound six or more months in the year. Explosives are used to keep
the water flowing, thereby avoiding serious flooding. A series of massive hydroelectric dams
provide energy to support Russian industry.
II. Known as the ―cradle of Chinese civilization‖, the Yellow River in China is the 6th
longest river in the world. It‘s been a major center of Chinese population and culture since
the 3rd century B.C. However, the Yellow River has another name — ―China‘s Sorrow‖. For
thousands of years, the river has regularly flooded, destroying the surrounding countryside
and populations. Today over a dozen dams control the flooding and also provide electricity
for millions.
III. Every year schoolchildren everywhere learn the names of the world‘s great rivers.
Everyone knows the longest river is the Nile. Or is it? Brazilian and Peruvian scientists now
argue that the Amazon should be considered the longest (using complicated measurements
only scientists can understand). But for now, the Nile still wins the title of ―longest river‖ in
textbooks. The Nile has always been the lifeline of Egyptian civilization. The annual
flooding of the river creates rich agricultural soil, ideal for growing wheat and flax and other
crops.
IV. When people think of the Mississippi River, their first thought is usually of Mark Twain
and the adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn. They may not recall from their childhood
geography lessons that the Mississippi is the fourth longest river in the world. For thousands
of years, Native Americans lived along the Mississippi, mostly living as hunter-gatherers and
herders. That life changed forever when Europeans first arrived in the 16th century; today the
Mississippi plays a crucial role in the economic life of dozens of cities and small towns
situated along its shores.
V. The third longest river is the Yangtze River in China. The river plays a very important
role in China‘s history, culture and economy. Nearly one-third of China‘s huge population
lives along the Yangtze river. The Yangtze is one of the world‘s busiest waterways.
Everything is transported along the Yangtze: coal, cars, produce and people. The river also
attracts many tourists who take cruises through the famous Three Gorges area. Sadly,
because of the heavy traffic on the river and industry along its, banks the Yangtze is very
polluted.
VI. The Nile may still earn the title for longest river, but the Amazon — the second
longest— has the greatest volume by far. The Amazon contains approximately one-fifth of

Moving house
A few days later, Lyn‘s mother told her to spend her evening sorting out and packing her
belongings. ‗I‘ll see to your clothes,‘ she said. ‗I want you to do your books and paints and
things. I‘ve put some cardboard boxes in your room.‘ You should‘ve asked me, said Lyn,
following her into the bedroom and seeing the assorted boxes. I would‘ve got some. There‘s
lots outside the supermarket near school.‘ ‗These came from the local shop. Oh it‘s all right,
I‘ve shaken out all the dirt,‘ she said as Lyn tipped up the nearest one, checking that it was
empty. ‗OK. I‘ll do it, said Lyn. ‗We‘re ready to move then, are we?‘ ‗Yes, the day after
tomorrow. You‘re going to miss the end of school term, but you won‘t mind that, will you?‘
‗You mean Fridays my last day at school? Lyn pushed the boxes aside with her foot to clear
a path to her bed so that she could sit down. You could‘ve told me, she said. ‗I have got
people to say goodbye to, you know.‘
I am telling you,‘ said her mother reasonably. ‗It doesn‘t take two days to say goodbye, does
it? You‘ll only get upset.‘ ‗Why are we doing my things first?‘ Lyn asked. ‗I haven‘t got
much. There‘s all the other stuff in the house — shouldn‘t we start on that first?‘ Don‘t
worry about that. Mrs Wilson‘s coming to help me tomorrow.‘ Lyn remembered what Mandy
Wilson had said all those days ago. ‗My mum‘s coming round to help you pack. She felt
angry with herself for not having said something straightaway — it was probably too late
now. But worth a try. I can help you,‘ she said. ‗We can do it together.‘ ‗You‘ll be at school -
you want to say goodbye.‘ ‗I‘ll go in at lunchtime for that. Mum, we can do it together. I
don‘t want that Mrs. Wilson touching our things.‘ Mandy Wilson‘s mother-picking things
over - telling Mandy what they‘d found - Mandy at school announcing importantly, ‗My
mother says they‘ve got cheap plates and half of them are cracked and none of their towels
match.‘ The image was intolerable. Lyn‘s mother moved over to sit beside her on the bed.
She was wearing her harassed expression. She was clearly feeling the pressure too, but
managed to keep her patience. ‗Nothing‘s ever straightforward with you, is it? she said. ‗It‘s
been agreed for a long time and it‘s extremely kind of her to help. Everything‘s got to be
wrapped up carefully so it doesn‘t get broken, then put in storage boxes in the right order — I
don‘t doubt you‘d do your best, but there‘s not room for anyone else - and she offered first.‘
Lyn said no more and got on with the job she‘d agreed to do. Her bedroom looked odd when
she had finished, but not as odd as the rest of the house when she got home from school next
day. It was so sad. There were no curtains at the windows and no ornaments on the shelves,
and in the middle of the room stood four large wooden boxes, full of objects wrapped in
newspaper. But what really struck Lyn most were the rectangles of lighter-coloured paint on
the wall where pictures had once hung. It was as if they had been atomised by a ray gun.
Moving into the kitchen, she saw empty cupboards, their doors wide open. Somebody had

Pulling strings to build pyramids
No one knows exactly how the pyramids were built. Marcus Chown reckons the answer could
be 'hanging in the air'.
The pyramids of Egypt were built more than three thousand years ago, and no one knows
how. The conventional picture is that tens of thousands of slaves dragged stones on sledges.
But there is no evidence to back this up. Now a Californian software consultant called
Maureen Clemmons has suggested that kites might have been involved. While perusing a
book on the monuments of Egypt, she noticed a hieroglyph that showed a row of men
standing in odd postures. They were holding what looked like ropes that led, via some kind
of mechanical system, to a giant bird in the sky. She wondered if perhaps the bird was
actually a giant kite, and the men were using it to lift a heavy object.
Intrigued, Clemmons contacted Morteza Gharib, aeronautics professor at the California
Institute of Technology. He was fascinated by the idea. 'Coming from Iran, I have a keen
interest in Middle Eastern science/ he says. He too was puzzled by the picture that had
sparked Clemmons's interest. The object in the sky apparently had wings far too short and
wide for a bird. The possibility certainly existed that it was a kite/ he says. And since he
needed a summer project for his student Emilio Graff, investigating the possibility of using
kites as heavy lifters seemed like a good idea.
Gharib and Graff set themselves the task of raising a 4.5-metre stone column from horizontal
to vertical, using no source of energy except the wind. Their initial calculations and scale-
model wind-tunnel experiments convinced them they wouldn't need a strong wind to lift the
33.5-tonne column. Even a modest force, if sustained over a long time, would do. The key
was to use a pulley system that would magnify the applied force. So, they rigged up a tent-
shaped scaffold directly above the tip of the horizontal column, with pulleys suspended from
the scaffolds apex. The idea was that as one end of the column rose, the base would roll
across the ground on a trolley.
Earlier this year, the team put Clemmons's unlikely theory to the test, using a 40-square-
metre rectangular nylon sail. The kite lifted the column clean off the ground. ‗We were
absolutely stunned,‘ Gharib says. The instant the sail opened into the wind, a huge force was
generated and the column was raised to the vertical in a mere 40 seconds.
The wind was blowing at a gentle 16 to 20 kilometres an hour, little more than half what they
thought would be needed. What they had failed to reckon with was what happened when the
kite was opened. There was a huge initial force - five times larger than the steady state force,'
Gharib says. This jerk meant that kites could lift huge weights, Gharib realised. Even a 300-
tonne column could have been lifted to the vertical with 40 or so men and four or five sails.
So Clemmons was right: the pyramid, builders could have used kites to lift massive stones

43
Multilevel Exam Book 4-edition JamoliddinNuriddinov

into place. ‗Whether they actually did is another matter,‘ Gharib says. There are no pictures
showing the construction of the pyramids, so there is no way to tell what really happened.
The evidence for using kites to move large stones is no better or worse than the evidence for
the brute force method, Gharib says.
Indeed, the experiments have left many specialists unconvinced. The evidence for kitelifting
is non-existent,' says Willeke Wendrich, an associate professor of Egyptology at the
University of California, Los Angeles. Others feel there is more of a case for the theory.
Harnessing the wind would not have been a problem for accomplished sailors like the
Egyptians. And they are known to have used wooden pulleys, which could have been made
strong enough to bear the weight of massive blocks of stone. In addition, there is some
physical evidence that the ancient Egyptians were interested in flight. A wooden artefact
found on the step pyramid at Saqqara looks uncannily like a modern glider. Although it dates
from several hundred years after the building of the pyramids, its sophistication suggests that
the Egyptians might nave been developing ideas of flight for a long time. And other ancient
civilisations certainly knew about kites; as early as 1250 BC, the Chinese were using them to
deliver messages and dump flaming debris on their foes.
The experiments might even have practical uses nowadays. There are plenty of places around
the globe where people have no access to heavy machinery, but do know how to deal with
wind, sailing and basic mechanical principles. Gharib has already been contacted by a civil
engineer in Nicaragua, who wants to put up buildings with adobe roofs supported by concrete
arches on a site that heavy equipment can't reach. His idea is to build the arcnes horizontally,
then lift them into place using kites. 'We've given him some design hints,' says Gharib. We're
just waiting for him to report back.' So, whether they were actually used to build the
pyramids or not, it seems that kites may make sensible construction tools in the 21 st century
AD.

Marketing And Mind Control
How marketing and advertising appeal to the associative nature of the brain
While there had been a long tradition of giving rings as a commitment to marry, the custom
of giving diamond engagement rings was in large part manufactured by one of the most
effective marketing campaigns in history. In the early 1900s, diamond sales were declining,
posing a serious problem for the company that essentially had control over the diamond
market. In 1938, this company hired an advertising agency. Which proposed reshaping social
attitudes toward diamonds? As well as magazines showing film stars draped in diamonds, the
agency arranged for movies to incorporate diamond engagement rings into their plots. The
campaign culminated with the slogan:' A diamond is forever. At the time, the approach was
unique. Rather than pushing a brand, the objective was to promote diamonds as the symbol
of everlasting love. This was achieved by exploiting the associative nature of the brain:
associating neurons! Activated by the concept of' love ' with neurons that encoded the
concept of ―diamonds. By 1941, diamond sales had increased by 55 %.
Advertising comes in many forms, from blatant neon signs to subtly embedded products in
movies. In each case, the goal is to mould our habits, desires and opinions. Our visual system
is targeted by an avalanche of information on the internet, street posters, and billboards and
in movie theatres. Our auditory system submits to catchy radio jingles and telemarketers.
More surreptitiously, our olfactory system is targeted by variations of vanilla and citrus
perfumes aimed at enticing US to linger in a retail outlet. It is difficult to measure how
effective these campaigns are, but as in the ' A diamond is forever ‘ campaign, they can be so
successful that they change the fabric of our culture. In the case of bottled water, we are
swayed by advertising into paying for something that we can obtain for free. Most people
cannot distinguish bottled from tap water, much less between brands of bottled water, which
is why you rarely hear of a bottled water company proposing a blind taste test.
So why is marketing such an effective mind - control technique? It is interesting to consider
whether other animals exhibit anything analogous to humans ' susceptibility to advertising. If
we provide a lab rat with two types of cereal, it will consume approximately the same
amount of each. However, if we put that rat with another rat that spent its day eating just one
type, when faced with a choice, our rat will now show a preference for the same type as the
other rat was eating. Psychologists call this ' socially transmitted food preference ‗. What
many regard as the first documented examples of cultural learning in primates started with a
clever monkey that lived in a colony of Japanese monkeys on the island of Koshima. She
began taking her dirt - covered sweet potatoes to the river to wash them before eating them.
Upon seeing this, a few 11 other open - minded monkeys picked up on the idea. Potato
washing then spread from monkey to monkey and, over the course of a few years, most
monkeys were eating clean potatoes. Humans are clearly not the only animals to engage in

50
Multilevel Exam Book 4-edition JamoliddinNuriddinov

imitation and social learning.


Learning by observation can be an extraordinarily valuable brain feature, this is how we learn
to communicate and perform motor skills as well as deal with many everyday problems. For
example, a newcomer struggling to purchase tickets and navigate the subway system in a
foreign city may step back to learn from the people nearby. Humans and other primates
exhibit multiple forms of imitative learning and this is called cultural transmission. A
component of advertising relies on the marketer's ability to tap into the brain‘s propensity for
imitation. Anybody who has watched TV knows advertisements are disproportionately
populated with attractive, successful looking individuals. If we are going to imitate someone,
we are more inclined to imitate those who appear to be popular and appealing.
Although not all researchers are convinced by the findings, a number of studies indicate that
some animals also imitate dominant members of their group. Primatologist Frans de Waal
provides anecdotal evidence of preferential imitation among chimpanzees. He noted that in
one particular group the dominant male was hurt and was limping as a result. Soon unlikely
if a non-dominant male had been injured.
Imitation is undoubtedly an invaluable ability, but often our propensity to imitate generalises
indiscriminately, leading to poor decisions. When athlete Dick Fosbury revolutionised the
high jump by jumping over the bar backward in 1968, imitators obviously copied his
jumping style, not his brand of sports shoes. However, today, sports people appear in
advertisements asking US to buy the laptops or sports drinks that they promote. Rationally,
we know these people's success did not depend on these products, so it seems our propensity
to purchase products relates more to neural programs that evolved to encourage imitation of
those further up the social ladder. Today, companies engage in stealth marketing campaigns
in which people are paid to frequent bars or websites to covertly promote certain products,
Companies also perform studies in which they track the eye movements of people viewing
displays, and carefully craft names, packages and jingles associated with their products.
While we may like to believe that manipulation on a grand scale would not be possible, that's
not to say that advertising is innately harmful. To the contrary, the marketing of products or
ideas is essential to human culture. The point is that we should ensure our choices reflect our
actual goals and desires, and we must distinguish between the dissemination of information
which is for our own good, and our manipulation for the benefit of companies.

CAN SCIENTISTS TELL US: WHAT HAPPINESS IS?
Economists accept that if people describe themselves as happy, then they are happy.
However, psychologists differentiate between levels of happiness. The most immediate type
involves a feeling; pleasure or joy. But sometimes happiness is a judgment that life is
satisfying, and does not imply an emotional state. Esteemed psychologist Martin Seligman
has spearheaded an effort to study the science of happiness. The bad news is that we‘re not
wired to be happy. The good news is that we can do something about it. Since its origins in a
Leipzig laboratory 130 years ago, psychology has had little to say about goodness and
contentment. Mostly psychologists have concerned themselves with weakness and misery.
There are libraries full of theories about why we get sad, worried, and angry. It hasn‘t been
respectable science to study what happens when lives go well. Positive experiences, such as
joy, kindness, altruism and heroism, have mainly been ignored. For every 100 psychology
papers dealing with anxiety or depression, only one concerns a positive trait.
A few pioneers in experimental psychology bucked the trend. Professor Alice Isen of Cornell
University and colleagues have demonstrated how positive emotions make people think
faster and more creatively. Showing how easy it is to give people an intellectual boost, Isen
divided doctors making a tricky diagnosis into three groups: one received candy, one read
humanistic statements about medicine, one was a control group. The doctors who had candy
displayed the most creative thinking and worked more efficiently. Inspired by Isen and
others, Seligman got stuck in. He raised millions of dollars of research money and funded 50
research groups involving 150 scientists across the world. Four positive psychology centres
opened, decorated in cheerful colours and furnished with sofas and baby-sitters. There were
get-togethers on Mexican beaches where psychologists would snorkel and eat fajitas, then
form ―pods‖ to discuss subjects such as wonder and awe. A thousand therapists were coached
in the new science.
But critics are demanding answers to big questions. What is the point of defining levels of
haziness and classifying the virtues? Aren‘t these concepts vague and impossible to pin
down? Can you justify spending funds to research positive states when there are problems
such as famine, flood and epidemic depression to be solved? Seligman knows his work can
be belittled alongside trite notions such as ―the power of positive thinking‖. His plan to stop
the new science floating ―on the waves of self- improvement fashion‖ is to make sure it is
anchored to positive philosophy above, and to positive biology below. And this takes us back
to our evolutionary past Homo sapiens evolved during the Pleistocene era (1.8 m to 10,000
years ago), a time of hardship and turmoil. It was the Ice Age, and our ancestors endured
long freezes as glaciers formed, then ferocious floods as the ice masses melted. We shared
the planet with terrifying creatures such as mammoths, elephant-sized ground sloths and
sabre- toothed cats. But by the end of the Pleistocene, all these animals were extinct.

54
Multilevel Exam Book 4-edition JamoliddinNuriddinov

Humans, on the other hand, had evolved large brains and used their intelligence to make fire
and sophisticated tools, to develop talk and social rituals. Survival in a time of adversity
forged our brains into a persistent mould. Professor Seligman says: ―Because our brain
evolved during a time of ice, flood and famine, we have a catastrophic brain. The way the
brain works is looking for what‘s wrong. The problem is, that worked in the Pleistocene era.
It favoured you, but it doesn‘t work in the modem world‖.
Although most people rate themselves as happy, there is a wealth of evidence to show that
negative thinking is deeply ingrained in the human psyche. Experiments show that we
remember failures more vividly than success. We dwell on what went badly, not what went
well. Of the six universal emotions, four anger, fear, disgust and sadness are negative and
only one, joy, is positive. (The sixth, surprise, is neutral). According to the psychologist
Daniel Nettle, author of Happiness, and one of the Royal Institution lectures, the negative
emotion each tells us ‗something bad has happened‘ and suggest a different course of action.
What is it about the structure of the brain that underlies our bias towards negative thinking?
And is there a biology of joy? At Iowa University, neuroscientist studied what happens when
people are shown pleasant and unpleasant pictures. When subjects see landscapes or dolphins
playing, part of the frontal lobe of the brain becomes active. But when they are shown
unpleasant images a bird covered in oil, or a dead soldier with part of his face missing the
response comes from more primitive parts of the brain. The ability to feel negative emotions
derives from an ancient danger-recognition system formed early in the brain‘s evolution. The
pre-frontal cortex, which registers happiness, is the part used for higher thinking, an area that
evolved later in human history.
Our difficulty, according to Daniel Nettle, is that the brain systems for liking and wanting are
separate. Wanting involves two ancient regions the amygdala and the nucleus accumbens that
communicate using the chemical dopamine to form the brain‘s reward system. They are
involved in anticipating the pleasure of eating and in addiction to drugs. A rat will press a bar
repeatedly, ignoring sexually available partners, to receive electrical stimulation of the
―wanting‖ parts of the brain. But having received brain stimulation, the rat eats more but
shows no sign of enjoying the food it craved. In humans, a drug like nicotine produces much
craving but little pleasure. In essence, what the biology lesson tells us is that negative
emotions are fundamental to the human condition and it‘s no wonder they are difficult to
eradicate. At the same time, by a trick of nature, our brains are designed to crave but never
really achieve lasting happiness.
