Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to built up new cells and replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substances that can be carried in the blood to the places where they are needed. This process is called digestion.

The first digestive process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains digestive juice which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.

From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach. Here, the food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the small intestine. All the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving the food onwards.


In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch projections from the intestine walls) and passed into the bloodstream.

b)

The digestive juice

c)

The method of the digestive system

d)

Have you ever wondered how people get chocolate from? In this article we’ll enter the amazing world of chocolate so you can understand exactly what you’re eating.

Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pine apple. Inside the fruit are the tree’s seeds, also known as cocoa beans.

The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour. Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix. Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter. All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs form liquid. It’s pure bitter chocolate.


The text is about …

a)

the cacao tree

b)

the cacao beans

c)

the raw chocolate

d)

the making of chocolate

e)

the flavour of chocolate

How to Build Confidence?

Self-confidence is one of very important parts of humanity. Someone with self-confidence generally likes themselves and thinks positively about their future. A person who lacks of self-confidence, however, tend to be pessimistic and is less likely to feel that they can achieve their goals in life. The good news is that self-confidence is something you can build! So, how to build your self-confidence?

First of all, you need to identify your negative thoughts because your negative thoughts will always whisper like this: "I can't do that," "Many people say that I will not succeed", "no one understands my efforts." These pessimistic thoughts will hold you back from achieving high self-esteem and greater self-confidence.

After identifying your negative thoughts, you must turn them to positive thoughts. You must be more energized to prove that all of those pessimistic thoughts are incorrect. This may be started by having the positive affirmations to overcome those negative perspectives, such as "I am going to try it," "I can be successful if I work at it," or "people will listen to me." You must try to repeat these sentences over and over to burn your spirits.

Next, you should refuse negative thoughts to occur more often than positive thoughts. Your positive thoughts should be given more “brain space” than your negative thoughts. The more you counter your negative self-thinking with positivity, the better confidence you will have.

In conclusion, as your confidence grows day by day, you must eliminate reminders of your negativity that can make you feel bad about yourself again. Always boost all of your positivity to achieve your dreams! Negativities might be reminders from the past and let the positivity become the flashlight to lighten up your map of dreams. This will go a long way in building your self-confidence up.

The night sky that occur most frequently in high latitudes of both hemispheres. They are categorized specifically according to their location. Auroras in the Northern Hemisphere are called the northern lights (aurora borealis), and in the Southern Hemisphere, auroras are called the southern lights (aurora australis). Auroras are caused by the sun, but they are not sunlight. In addition to light, the sun also sends out electrically charged particles stream of electrons and protons, called the solar wind. This stream of particles travels from the sun towards the Earth at high speed.


The earth is surrounded by a magnetic field, consisting of north and south magnetic poles. These magnetic poles are not the same as the North and South poles. As the charged particles in the solar wind penetrate the earth’s magnetosphere and enter the lower Van Allen radiation belt, the earth magnetic field deflects it to the magnetic poles. Then they collide with gas molecules, mostly oxygen and nitrogen, in the atmosphere. These collisions cause them to emit visible light at various wavelengths, creating the colors of the aurora. Because the light of auroras is not strong enough, they are generally only visible at night.


The topic of the above text is about…

a)

Tsunami

b)

Fair

c)

Gesyer

d)

Auroras

e)

Insidious

A geyser is the result of underground water under the combined conditions of high temperatures and increased pressure beneath the surface of the earth. Since temperature rises approximately 1 F for every sixty feet under the earth’s surface, and pressure increases with depth, the water that seeps down in crack and fissures until it reaches very hot rock in the earth interior becomes heated to temperature in excess of 290 F. Because of the greater pressure, the water shoots out of the surface in the form of steam and hot water. The result is a geyser. In order to function, then a geyser must have a source of heat, reservoir where water can be stored until the temperature rises to an unstable point, an opening through which the hot water and steam can escape, and underground channels for resupplying water after an eruption.

Favorable conditions for geyser exist in some regions of the world including New Zealand, Iceland, and the Yellowstone National Park area of the United States. The most famous geyser in the world is Old Faithfull in Yellow Park. Old Faithfull erupts almost every hour, rising to a height of 125 to 170 feet and expelling more than ten thousand gallons during each eruption.
