MY ROOM


     This building is a house. It is a white house. My room is in this white house. This is my room. My bed is against this wall. It is under the wide window. My books are on that narrow, black table between the bed and the door. Those are my books. A picture in a frame is on the wall over the books.


     The walls are white and the floor is black. The curtains over the bed are black. A cover and cushions are on the bed. The cushions are against the wall.


     My seat is by the round table. It is between the table and the bed. That seat is between the table and the door. The pot on the table is round and black. These flowers are in the pot. A white flower is on the floor under the table.


      I take the white flower off the floor and put it in the pot. I take the pot off this table and put it by the books. I take a book off that table and put it in the drawer. I put this round cushion on a seat and I put this cushion on the floor. I take the cover off my bed and put it on a seat.

 


Notes:


     Read Carefully, this are some sentences of the text, and here is the explanation form them.

 


That narrow, black table: When two or more descriptive adjectives are used before a noun, it is usual for them to have only a comma between them.


The pot . . . is round and black: When two or more such adjective are used after be to qualify its subject, it is necessary for them to be linked by and.


On the wall: The surface which something is on need not be horizontal.


I take the flower off the floor and put it in the pot: If two statements joined by and have the same subject, this is not usually repeated.

Separate molecule is smallest electric engine ever

For the first time, an electric engine has been made from a single molecule1 . At 1X10e-09 meter long, that makes the organic2 compound3 the smallest electric engine ever. Its agents putting into existence the idea to put forward their design to Guinness World records, but the small engine could also have good uses, such as pushing liquid (or gas) through narrow pipes in "lab-on-a-chip" apparatus.

Molecules1 have previously converted energy from light and chemical reactions into directed motion like rolling or moving up and down. Electrics has also set an oxygen molecule1 turning as by chance. But controlled,

Red wine's heart condition chemical unlocked at last

Like receiving the heart safe-keeping powers of red wine without having to drink a glass every day? Soon you may be able to, thanks to the putting together of chemicals formed from resveratrol1, the smallest unit believed to give wine its safe-keeping powers. The chemicals have the possible & unused quality to fight many diseases, including cancer2.

Plants make a very great range of chemicals, called polyphenols3,from resveratrol1to keep safe (out of danger) themselves against ones making attack, particularly Fungi4. But they only make very small amounts of each chemical, making it greatly not simple for men of science to put or keep away and make use of them. The changing nature resveratrol1has also slowed down attempts at

No one really uses reason

Though many may see it as troubling, it is now clear that few of the action-bound processes taking place in our brains ever touch on our being conscious. In other words, we do most of our "thinking" without ever being conscious of it. The simple act of seeing something depends upon what the German expert in physics, medical man and wise man Hermann von Helmholtz called "unconscious things discovered by reasoning". It is these that make able our brain to work out which thing is causing the unworked signs coming from our senses. The same general rule put to use in acting. When we act a simple act, getting up a glass, for example, we are not conscious of the complex decisions our brain has to make about the best way to move our arm and form our fingers.

It is a good

Young persons with low self-control are less good adults

Children who exist without self-control are more likely to become adults with poor condition of body and control of money.

So say Avshalom Caspi at Duke University in North Carolina, Terrie Moffitt at King's College London and persons having like-position, who followed the forward development of 1000 children born between 1972 and 1973in New Zealand. The group measured self-control by asking the boys and girls, as well as their parents and teachers, about their behavior every two years between the ages of 3and 15,and then at 18, 21, 26 and 32.

Children with higher levels of self-control were more likely to have a higher society & money position and a higher IQ 1. After adjusting for both points, the group found that adults who had low self-control as children were more likely to be overweight, have substance wrongly use questions, base of teeth disease and through sex let through disease.

First sperm cells able to keep living grown from nothing

FOR the first time small rat-like animal sperm1 able to keep living have been grown outside thetestes2. If the way can be done over again and again with mankind sperm1, it could lead to new ways of giving attention to not-fertile men.

Takuya Sato at Yokohama City University in Japan and persons having like-position in the same organization got from seeds cells from the testes2 of fresh after birth small rat-like animals that had not yet begun producing sperm1. They placed the cells in agarose3 soft paste made wet for giving food to chemicals and hormones4 such as eggs undergoing growth in cow-like serum5 and testosterone6. The group had first engineered the small rat-like animal so
