Dear Gunna and Ingrid,
Im trying very hard to find you a flat in london for your years study here. Its difficu
but dont worry. I think Ive found something.
Yesterday I went to see two flats in Hommersmith. I think they are suitable
because they are both near the hospital where you will study but the first one is not a
good position. Its on a quiet street but its a long way from the undergrounf station
and from the nearest childrens school. However, the flat itself is large and modern. It
has big rooms with nice furnature.
The second one is on a very busy street. It near the underground station and the
school, but the building itself old. The flat has medium sized rooms and only basic
Furniture. On the other hand, its much cheaper than the first one, only 80 per week
instead of 110.
I asked the estate agent to wait for my answer, so phone write quilty. Tell me which
flat you prefer.
Hoping to hear from you soon,
Your Steve.

Exercise 1. Here the report which Sergiant Foster wrote. Fill in the space with the
information from his notes. Where there are two linking words. Choose one.
The study s findings are important because they use a biological marker to show a direct
link between chronic stress and heart disease. Stressors, such as marital or financial trouble,
have been link to heart disease, but doctor could only relay on questionnaires to determine
people, s stress levels. This study looked at a more objective, measurable sign- the level of the
cortisol , a hormone released during stress that show up in the hair shaft.
Measuring cortisol levels in hair also can indicate how long a person has been stressed, says
Gideon Koren, one of the studys author and a toxicologist at the university of Western Ontario.
Cortisol , which is secreted by the adrenal glands, also shows up in urine and sariva, but that
only shows stress at the moment of measurement not over long periods of time.
Hair grows about one centimeter [a fraction of an inch] a month, so if we take a hair sample
six centimeters [2.6 inches] long, we can measure the cortisol level and determine stress levels
for the past six months, Koren says. This is critical , he adds, because what kills is chronic
stress.
In the study, researchers took 3 centimeters hair samples from 56 male heart attack patients
admitted to the Meir Medical Centre in Israel . Hair samples were also taken from a control
group, hospitalized for the reasons other than a heart attack. The two groups did not differ
significantly in term diabetes, high blood pressure smoking, and family history of heart disease.

American School System demaging kids
Parents send their children to school with the best of Intentions,
believing that formal education is what kids need to become productive,
heppy adults. Many prents do have qualms about how well schools are
performing, but the conventional wisdom is that these issues can be
resolved with more money, better teachers, more challenging curricular
or more rigous tests. But what if the real problem is school itself? The
unfornate fact that one of our most charished institutions is by its very
nature failing our children and our society.
Children are required to be in school, where their freedom is
greatly restricted, far more than most adults would tolerate in their
workspaces. In recent decades, we have been compalling them to spand
over more time in this kind of setting and there is strong evidence that
this is causig psycological damage to many of them. And as scientists
have investigated how children naturally learn, they have realized that
kids do so most deeply and fully, and with greatest enthusiasm, in
condition that are almost opposite to those of school.
Compulsory education has been a failure of our culture now for
several generations. President of Obama and secretary of education Anne
Duncan are so are so enamored of it that they want even longer school
days and years. Most people assume that that the besic design of todays
school emerged from scientific evidence about how children learn. But
nothing could be further form the truth.
Schools are we knoe them today are a product of history, not of
research. The blueprint for them was develoved during the Protestant
Reformation, when schools were created to teach children to read the Bible,
to believe Scripture without questioning it, and to obey autority figures
without questining them. When schools were taken over by the state, made
compulsory, and directed toward secular ends, the basic structure and
methods of teaching remained unchanged. Subsequent attemps at reform
have failed because they have not altered basic blueprint. The top down,
teach and test method, in which learning is metivated by a system of
rewards and punishments rather then by curiosity or by any real desire to
know, is well designed for introduction and obidience training but not much
else. It is no wonder that many of the worlds greatest enterprenour s and
innovators either left school early (like Tomas Edson) or sad they hated school
and learned despite it, not because of it (like Albert Einstein).

Fasting for the body benefith
The benefits of fasting must be proceded by a look at the bodys progression when
deprivated of food. Due to the lack of coming energy, the body must turn to its own
recources, a function called autolysis. Autolysis is the breaking down of fat stores in
the body in order to produce energy. The liveris in charge of comverting the fats into
a chemical called a keletone body, and then distributing these bodies throughout the
body via the blood stream. The less one eats, the more the body turns to these
stored fats and creates these keleton bodies, the accumulation of which is referred to
as keleton.
Detoxification is the foremost argument presented by advocate of fasting.
Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutrlizing toxins through
the colon, liver, kidneys, lymph, glands, and skin. This process is precipatated by
fasting because when food is no longer entering the body, the body turns to fat
reserve for energy.
A second prescribe benefit of fasting is the heating process that begins in the
body during a fast. During a fast energy diverted away from the digestive system due
to its lack of use and towards the metabolism and immune system. The heating
process is precitated by the bodys search for energy sources. Abnormal growths
within the body, lumors and the like, do not have the full support of the bodys
supplies and therefore are more susceptible to autolysis.
In addition, there is a reduction in core body temperature. This is a direct result
of the slower metabolic rate and general bodily functions. Following a drop in sugar
level and using the reserves of glocose found in a liver glycogen, the basal metabolic
rata is reduced in order to conserve as much energy within the body as can be
provided. Growth hormones are also reliased during a fat, due to the greater
efficiency in hormone production.
Finally, the most scientipically proven advantage to testing of
rejuvenation and extended like expectancy. Part of the phenomenom is
caused by number of benefit mentioned above. A slower metabolic rate, more
efficient protein production, an improve immun system, and the encreased
production of hormones contributes to this long term benefit of fasting. In
addition, to the human growth hormone that is released more frequently
during a fast, an anti-aging hormone is also produced more efficiently.

Free democratic spirit
When is heppening in Egypt is the latest example of the interplay
between democracy, protest and government efficacy. Democracy is a way
of deciding the decision-makers, but it is not a substitute for making the
decision. I remember an early conversation with some young Egyptians
shortly after President Mubaraks downfall. They believe that, with
democracy, problems would be solved . When I probed on the right
economic policy for Egypt, they simply said that it would be fine because n
ow they had democracy: chance of working.
I am a strong supporter of democracy. But democratic government
does not on its own mean effective government . Today efficacy is the
challenge. When government do not deliver, people peotest . In fact, as
Turkey and Brazil show, they can protest even when, on any objective basis,
countries have made huge progress. But as countries move from low to
middle status, the people,s expectation rise. They want quality services,
better housing, good infrastructure, espesially transport.
This is a spirit of free democratic spirit that operates outside the
convention of democracy that elections decide the government. It is
enermously fuelled by social medya , itself a revolutionary phenomenon. It
moves very fast in precipatating crisis. It is not always consistent or
rational. A protest is not a policy or placard a program for government. But
if governments do not have a clear argument with which to rebut the
protest , they are in trouble.
In Egypt, the government s problem were compounded by resentment at the ideology
and intolerance of Muslim Brotherhood. Across the middle East, for the first time, and this is
a positive development , there is development, there is open debate about the role of
religion in politics.uslim Brotherhoods superior organization, there is probably a mamajority
for an intrinsically secular approach to government in the region.
Society can be deeply imbued with religious observance, but people are starting to
release that democracy only work as a pluralistic concept where faiths are respected and
religion has a voice, not a veto. For Egypt, a nation with an immanense and varied
civilization, around 8 million Christians and young population who need to be connected to
the world, there is not really a future as an Islamic state that aspires to be part of a regional
calphate.
