Sometimes you just know things about people the first time you see them- for example that you want to be friends with them or that you don't trust them. But perhaps this kind of intuition isn't as hard to explain (1)as it may seem. For instance, everybody gives out body language signals (2)at the time. The (3)way you hold your body, head and arms tells people about your mood. If you hold your arms tightly at your sides (4)then fold them across your chest, people wil generally feel that you (5)are being defensive. Holding your head on one side shows interest in the (6)strange person, while (7)you relaxed, "open" posture indicates that you are self- confident. All this affects (8)on we feel about someone
Also, a stranger may (9)recognize you of a previous meeting with someone. This may be because of (10)someone as simple as the fact that he or she is physically similar (11)from someone who treated you well or badly. But your reaction doesn't (12)reflect to be the result of the memory of a person you previously met- your feeling about the stranger could (13)be influenced by a smell in the air that brings to mind a place (14)where you were happy as a child. Since even a single word can bring back a memory (15)but as that, you may never realize it is happening

DAINTREE RAINFOREST
Rainforests are not only 0 ( spectacle)................ but also provide shelter for lover half the species of plants and animals on Earth. The Daintree Rainforest in Queensland, Australia, is the world's 46 (old) oldest rainforest and is a living record of 47 ( evolution) evolutionary change.

It is sometimes said that your schooldays are the (0. happy) days of your life, and people often feel that this should be a period of (36. ENJOY) enjoyment. However, exams often affect students’ happiness, and many students express a (37. PREFER) preference for alternative methods of assessment, where the work they do throughout the year counts towards their final mark. They say that exams test short-term memory and (38. KNOW) knowledge which is forgotten immediately after the exam. Also, assessing coursework as part of the final marks changes students' (39. BEHAVE) behaviour; making them more (40. RESPONSIBILITY)responsible about studying. There are some students, however, who prefer final examinations, saying that in (41. COMPARE) comparement they only have to work hard for two months a year and so they have more time for their leisure (42. ACT)activity. They say that some students receive (43. ASSIST) with their coursework from their parents, so it is not an accurate (44. MEASURE)measuring of how hard they have worked or of their real (45. ABLE)ability in the subject they are studying.

We all know stories about people with exceptional memories who have the ability to remember hundreds of numbers after hearing them only once .Now experts are saying that such feats can be taught.
For example, most people can repeat about nine numbers if they are read out one a second. In one experiment, ten hours' training produced only a small improvement, but the results after practising for a thousand hours were amazing: some people remembered 80 ar even 100 numbers. Similarly, most adults can identify only about five out of a set of 21 colours that are only slightly different. But after 80 training hours one person could recognise 18 of them. Studies of 76 major composers show that it took at least ten years of musical training before any of them wrote a major work. Psychologists are therefore raising the possibility that genius is the product of teaching
