New York

New York is one of the largest cities in the world. Its population is over 11 million people. New York is an industrial and cultural centre of the country. Most business is centred in Manhattan Island. The whole area is very small, that's why the sky-scrapers were invented in New York and, especially, in Wall Street. Wall Street is a narrow street with big houses, but it is well known all over the world as the busiest street in the USA. People do business there. There are two more world-famous streets — Broadway and Fifth Avenue. Broadway is the centre of the theatres and nightlife. It is known as “The Great White Way” because of the electric signs which turn night into day.It is the city that never goes to sleep. Buses and sub-way run all night. There are many drugstores and restaurants which never close their doors. There are cinemas with films that start at midnight. Fifth Avenue is the great shopping, hotel, and club avenue.There are many places of interest in New York.

He produced his first (black and white) Mickey Mouse cartoon in 1928.It was an instant hit with both children and adults.

Then, three years later, Disney created his second cartoon superstar—Donald Duck.Later, Disney founded Walt Disney Productions, now known as The Walt Disney Company.

Computer Games and Children

Scientists have looked at the relationship between violent films and children’s behaviour for years. They are now studying the effect of computer games on children. Lyn Hender, senior lecturer in educational psychology, focuses on how these games influence the way teenagers think. She looked at thirteen and fourteen-year-old students playing fantasy games on computers.She found that both weak and strong students clearly used complex thinking skills. “I think we never really see the advantages of such games in education. Parents and teachers do not think of these as being educationally useful,” Dr Hender said.“I think we only see the aggression and violence in them. Of course, some games are like that. But the majority are non-violent games that are good for developing the mind.” The students played a game called “Get The Money,”in which a group have to make money in various ways.For this game you need to think in almost the same way that you would in a sports game.“This is not an easy game, ... actually, you have to use logic as well as changing how you think.” Dr Hender stated.Teachers were surprised to see that teenagers whom they thought were weak students were as successful as their stronger classmates. Sometimes they were even better. “One weaker student completed a complex card game in which you had about nine different things to remember,” Dr Hender said. “I discovered she did it very easily, but some of the students I thought were strong had problems. I found that none of the students had any problems concentrating for a long time. They were determined to understand the game and get it right.Dr Hender concluded that the games used the same sort of strategies that were very valuable in classrooms. Teachers could try to make use of these game sand design tasks based on them for students in class. ‘Computers are not just a home leisure thing, ’she said.

35. Dr Lyn Hender is mainly interested in how...

• films cause children to be violent.
• computer games affect the minds of the young.
• little research exists on computer games.
• to compare computer games and films

36. According to Dr Hender, parents believe computer games...

• are too difficult for many children.
• are often madein order to educate chidlren.
• are not a properpart of education.
• don’t involve thinking.

37. Dr Hender says most computer games...

• are violent and aggressive.
• are for children, not adults.
• improve the thinking skills of their users.
• are bad for children.

38. Dr Hender says “Get The Money’...

• is sold as a sports game.
• tells children that earning moneyis good.
• helps children understand the value of money.
• helpschildren think in different ways.

39. According to Dr Hender weaker students are...

• just as good at the game.
• able to concentrate better.
• good at card games.
• able to keep in mind nine things at once.

40. Dr Hender says that teachers should...

• make their own computer programs.
• plan activities based on computer games.
• give homework which needs a computer.
• make sure every student has a computerin class

• the educational value of computer games.

Siberia’s medical train

The famous Trans-Siberian railway line runs from Moscow to Vladivostok, but there’s another line about 650 kilometres north of the Trans-Siberian. This is the Baikal-Amur Mainline (BAM) and a special train, the Matvei Mudrov medical train, travels along its 4,000 kilometres. The train, with its twelve to fifteen doctors, spends a day in each of the small towns and villages along the BAM. The inhabitants of these remote places depend on this service because they mostly don’t have regular access to any other health care.The Matvei Mudrov was named after a Russian doctor in the nineteenth century. He was one of the first doctors to believe that you shouldn’t only look at the disease, but you should also treat the individual patient. Nowadays, the Matvei Mudrov stops in each town or village on the BAM about twice a year. In the village of Khani (population 742) the patients include a man who has broken both ankles and a teenage girl who needs a check- up after surgery for appendicitis. Luckily, she was able to get to a town three hours away for the operation. Although the Matvei Mudrov can’t offer surgery, the train has a laboratory for blood and urine tests, heart monitors, an ultrasound and an x-ray machine. The medical staff includes specialists, such as neurologists, and they can diagnose and recommend treatment for their patients. The patients say they respect the doctors’ honesty and skill.At another of the train’s stops, a town of about 4,000 people, there is already a queue of people waiting. 61-year-old Mikhail Zdanovich is one of them. He originally came to this town, Berkakit, in 1976. At the time it was a new town, with only about a hundred young people living in camp conditions.It was part of a Soviet Union expansion plan. Zdanovich married a woman who worked at the town bakery and they settled in the town. As soon as Zdanovich goes into the office, the doctor, Yelena Miroshnichenko, cries ‘Oh, Mikhail, I recognised your voice.’ He has a dislocated shoulder. The doctor writes a letter to say that he can’t work while he’s waiting for his shoulder to be treated. He leaves, happy, and then he returns a few minutes later. He brings freshly baked pies and jar of goat’s milk. It’s clear that after years on the Matvei Mudrov, the doctors and their patients know each other well.And, in fact, for these people living in this remote part of Russia, the Matvei Mudrov is more than just a health service.It’s a connection to the rest of their country, a confirmation that they are not forgotten.
