In same gender pairs having conversations, women generally discuss their personal feelings more than men. Men appear to prefer non-personal topics such as sport and news. Men tend to respond to an expression of feeling or problems by giving advice or solutions, while women are more likely to mention personal experiences that match or connect with the other woman’s. There is a pattern documented in the American English social context of women cooperating and seeking connection via language, whereas men are more competitive and concerned with power via language. In mixed-gender pairs having conversations, the rate of men interrupting women is substantially greater than the reverse. Women are reported to use more expressions associated with tentativeness, such as “hedges” (sort of; kind of) and “tags” (isn’t it? don’t you?), when expressing an opinion: Well, erm, I think that golf in kind if boring, didn’t you? 40 Key to Unit 10 History Task 1 Key A.

The future is determined by the actions of the present day. Edward Cornish, the editor of The Futurist magazine published by the World Future Society, says: "The responsibility we have for the future begins when we recognize that we ourselves create the future--that the future is not something imposed upon us by fate or other forces beyond our control. We ourselves build the future both through what we do and what we do not do." A novel way of teaching may change the way universities are run. An engineering teacher at the American University of Illinois has had great success without textbooks, without exams and without deadlines. His students won nine of the top ten engineering awards in a university competition. The engineering professor, Ricardo Uribe, let his engineering students express themselves, instead of telling them what to do. His students all focused on the problems that interested them, not what their teacher told them. They worked their own hours, not hours set by the university. They did not have to sit tests, and they helped each other in open classes. 64 Key to Unit 15 News (II) Task 1 Key Fill in the blanks with what you hear on the tape. successor, the World Wars, drafted, existence General Assembly members, Headquarters, decision-making, budget permanent members, two-years terms, maintenance.

Moreover, although the BBC is funded by the payments from people who have TVs, The government is beginning a charter review of the system. Thus some people fear the BBC could try to please the government because it relies on the renewal of the charter for its funding. 2) Alex Salmond questions the government’s role in appointing senior executives for the BBC. He doubts whether the government can be impartial on the matter when the chairman and director general of the BBC resigned after the affair. Tony Blair says the BBC should be independent and impartial by questioning and probing the government in every proper way. Tessa Jowell insists that the BBC be constitutionally independent and continue to be so. For her, what is the most important is that the BBC, as the major public service broadcaster, continues moving forward after the affair. Task 11 68 Script Newspapers are one of the main sources from which we learn what is going on--in world politics, science, local government, the arts, fashion, food, education and sports. The papers we choose show our interests and usually the politics which we believe in. There are nine national daily newspapers in Britain, of which five are tabloids and four are quality papers. Do these newspapers really serve the people they are written for? Many people question the objectivity of newspapers. How objective are they? We might be better able to judge if we understand how a newspaper is produced. Reporters, of course, are the source from which the facts must come, but there are many other people who are involved in and influence newspapers. 69 70
