A The idea of electrical communication seems to have begun as long ago as 1746, when about 200 monks at monastery in Paris arranged themselves in a line over a mile long, each holding ends of 25 ft iron wires. The abbot, also a scientist, discharged a primitive electrical battery into the wire, giving all the monks a simultaneous electrical shock. "This all sounds very silly, but is in fact extremely important because, firstly, they all said 'ow' which showed that you were sending a signal right along the line; and, secondly, they all said 'ow' at the same time, and that meant that you were sending the signal very quickly, "explains Tom Standage, author of the Victorian Internet and technology editor at the Economist. Given a more humane detection system, this could be a way of signaling over long distances.
B With wars in Europe and colonies beyond, such a signalling system was urgently needed. All sorts of electrical possibilities were proposed, some of them quite ridiculous. Two Englishmen, William Cooke and Charles Wheatstone came up with a system in which dials were made to point at different letters, but that involved five wires and would have been expensive to construct.
C Much simpler was that of an American, Samuel Morse, whose system only required a single wire to send a code of dots and dashes. At first, it was imagined that only a few highly skilled encoders would be able to use it but it soon became clear that many people could become proficient in Morse code. A system of lines strung on telegraph poles began to spread in Europe and America.
E It never worked well as the effect of water on its electrical properties was not understood, and it is reputed that a French fishermen hooked out a section and took it home as a strange new form of seaweed The cable was too big for a single boat so two had to start in the middle of the Atlantic, join their cables and sail in opposite directions. Amazingly, they succeeded in 1858, and this enabled Queen Victoria to send a telegraph message to President Buchanan. However, the 98-word message took more than 19 hours to send and a misguided attempt to increase the speed by increasing the voltage resulted in failure of the line a week later.
F By 1870, a submarine cable was heading towards Australia. It seemed likely that it would come ashore at the northern port of Darwin from where it might connect around the coast to Queensland and New South Wales. It was an undertaking more ambitious than spanning an ocean. Flocks of sheep had to be driven with the 400 workers to provide food. They needed horses and bullock carts and, for the parched interior, camels. In the north, tropical rains left the teams flooded. In the centre, it seemed that they would die of thirst. One critical section in the red heart of Australia involved finding a route through the McDonnell mountain range and then finding water on the other side.
G The water was not only essential for the construction team. There had to be telegraph repeater stations every few hundred miles to boost the signal and the staff obviously had to have a supply of water, lust as one mapping team was about to give up and resort to drinking brackish water, some aboriginals took pity on them. Altogether, 40, 000telegraph poles were used in the Australian overland wire. Some were cut from trees. Where there were no trees, or where termites ate the wood, steel poles were imported.

The bar chart presents the information about the difference in the percentage of sports in outdoor school hours according to different genders.
The most obvious gap is observed in netball, where girls account for 18 percent of the outside school hours, in sharp contrast to the figure for boys, only around 2 percent. In terms of swimming, girls also show more preference than boys, with the percentage 16 of the former and 13 of the latter.
Football is the sport that attracts more attention from boys than girls. There are 20 percent of outdoor sports hours of boys in this category, while girls spent much less time on football, the number of which is almost 5 times less than that of boys.
In the category of basketball and no sports, the outdoor sports time for girls and boys is evenly matched. They spent comparatively more time on basketball, whereas the figure for no sports represent 4 percent and 5 percent respectively.
In conclusion, girls and boys have different preferences on different sports and swimming, football and netball are most welcomed.

Globalization has become a noticeable trend in various fields such as economy, education, and culture. Although it has exerted many positive effects, there appear some problems as well.
One major problem associated with media globalization is that it may pose a threat to the cultural diversity. Some major brands, fashion styles or medium are likely to dominate the market while those minority counterparts may eventually vanish. Take the clothes brands for example, Nike and Adidas are gradually taking the Chinese market whilst those domestic brands only account for a small proportion. Similarly, those Hollywood movies and American or Korean television series seem to be more popular in the youth group in China. As a big country with rich culture, it may be impossible for China to lose its own culture, it may happen in some small countries though.
However, there do exist some advantages with the development of globalization in these aspects. First of all, the trend of globalization in various areas is undeniable and irresistible. If we continue to keep the foreign brands or television programs out of our life, it not only deprives ourselves of some entertainment but also hinders the development of our own culture. Since competition can trigger creation and a sense of crisis, which in return boosts the development of our own culture. Furthermore, people nowadays live in a multicultural society which means a mixed group of people along with different cultures. Without knowing each other’s culture may make it difficult for people to communicate to some extent. By contrast, with the rich knowledge of other cultures can help to build the social skills and enhance a better understanding between people.
In conclusion, culture globalization helps to create a better communication environment worldwide which not only benefits ourselves but also the world as a whole. It may be a potential danger as to the cultural diversity though, this part can be ignored compared to the benefits coming along.

I’m not a regular gymnasium-goer, and I prefer to stay at home. However, recently I especially want to learn rock climbing. It’s a good work-out as it exercises every muscle in our body and it is good way to keep us in good health. Actually, the reason that I know this is because when I was a kid, I didn’t have a clue about what is rock climbing and how to climb rock, so some of my classmates just made fun of me. As a result, I had acquired a lot of information about rock climbing. At that time, I was so tied up with my study that i had no time to learn, but now i really want to learn.
However, I assume that it must be extremely hard to learn. It is hazardous and it would get hurt easily. Also, I have poor body coordination, which means that it is even harder for me to learn. But I think though my strong willpower and perseverance, I will definitely climb like a monkey.
The reason why I want to learn this sport is probably because I think rock climbing is so exciting and as for me, it is kind of like an ultimate challenge. I can imagine that every time when I’m climbing, my blood will be boiling. Overcoming such a challenge, I will certainly acquire an overwhelming sense of satisfaction. Also, I have a poor body coordination, so I want to learn how to control my breathing and my muscle through this certain sport.
