From the beginning rivers have played an important part in the life of man. Primitive man used rivers as a means of travel.
In ancient times, man settled near rivers or on river banks and built up large empires and

civilizations. Rome today still stands on both sides of the Tiber. The Menam runs through modern Bangkok, still serving as a great waterway for the transport of goods and people.
Water is Nature’s most precious gift to man. Man needs water to irrigate his crops, to cook and to wash. In nations far and wide rivers mean life and wealth. The Irrawaddy, Nile, Ganges and a host of other rivers feed and clothe the nation around them. A shortage of water in heavily populated agricultural areas will cause great hardship and starvation as crops fail.
Water is also a source of energy and power. Man constructs huge dams across rivers to control the water for irrigation and obtain the energy needed to drive generators. The electrical power is then channeled to homes, cities, factories, television stations and the military.
Man uses billions of litres of water each day. His main source of water comes from reservoirs which in turn obtain their water from the rivers. 1. Rivers have been important to man ______. A. since Roman times B. since many years ago
C. since a few hundred years ago D. for a very long time

electromagnetic waves which are sent through the air. Experiments leading to modern television took place mare than a hundred years ago. By the 1920s inventors and researchers had turned the early theories into working models. Yet it took another thirty years for TV to become industry.
The influence of TV on the life of the people is incalculable: it can influence their thoughts and their way of life. It can also add to their store of knowledge. Educational TV stations offer teaching in various subjects. Some hospitals use TV for medical students to get close-up views of operations. At first television programs were broadcast in black-and-white. With the development of science and technology, the problem of how to telecast them in full color was solved and by the middle 1960s the national networks were broadcasting most of their programs in color.
The programs that people watch are not only local and national ones. Since the launching of the first communications satellite, more and more programs are telecast “live” from all over the world. People in San Francisco were able to watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo. And live telecasts now come from outer space. In 1969, the first astronauts to land on the moon televised their historic “moon walk” to viewers on the earth. Since then, astronauts have regularly sent telecast to the earth. 6.

A. get close-up views of operations B. store knowledge

How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their associations ─ the things they bring up before our minds, Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which like music and by their association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
