together. Effective as of 8th December 2018, our offical name will be:

Several bridges named London Bridge have spanned the River Thames between the City of
London and Southward, in central London. The current crossing, which opened to traffic in
1973, is a box girder bridge built from concrete and steel. It replaced a 19th-century stone-
arched bridge, which in turn superseded a 600-year-old stone-built medieval structure. This
was preceded by a succession of timber bridges, the first of which was built by the Roman
founders of London.

been depicted in its several forms, in art, literature, and songs, including the nursery rhyme
"London Bridge Is Falling Down".
The modern bridge is owned and maintained by Bridge House Estates, an independent charity
of medieval origin overseen by the City of London Corporation. It carries the A3 road, which

Last week my friend and I were bored after three weeks of holidays, so we rode our bikes to
Pasir Kencana Beach, which is only five kilometres from where I live. When we arrived at the
beach, we were surprised to see there was hardly anyone there. After having a quick dip in the
ocean, which was really cold, we realized one reason there were not many people there. It was
also quite windy. After we bought some hot chips at the takeaway store nearby, we rode our
bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part of the sand.

We had the wind behind us and, before we knew it, we were many miles down the beach. Before
we made the long trip back, we decided to paddle our feet in the water for a while, and then sit
down for a rest. While we were sitting on the beach, just chatting, it suddenly dawned on us that
all the way back, we would be riding into the strong wind. When we finally made it back home,

How to Keep your Washing Machine Smelling Fresh and Clean

A clean washing machine is a fresh-smelling machine: if there’s something

smelly about yours, it means mold or bacteria-laden residue has been allowed
to build up in the inside. Here’s how to keep your machine dirt-free:

1. Use a home water softener attached to your in-flow pipe, or tablets in your
machine, to minimize the build-up of lime scale deposits.
2. Rinse off excess dirt from soiled clothing before putting it in your machine.
3. Use only as much detergent as necessary: follow the guidelines on the
packaging, as excess detergent can build up inside the machine.
4. Leave the door open between washing loads – or long enough so the interior of
the drum dries out – to reduce the possibility of mold growing inside. If you
have a front-loading washing machine, it’s a good idea to open the detergent
drawer as well, to prevent mold from growing.
5. Run an empty hot wash once a month to eliminate any build-up that has already
occurred.

Helen Keller, in full Helen Adams Keller, (born June, 1880, Tuscumbia, Alabama, U.S., died
June 1, 1968, Westport, Connecticut), American author and educator who was blind and deaf.
Her education and training represent an extraordinary accomplishment in education on persons
with these disabilities.

Keller was afflicted at the age of 19 months with an illness (possibly scarlet fever) that left her
blind and deaf. She was examined by Alexander Graham Bell at the age of 6. As a result, he sent
to her a 20-year-old teacher, Anne Sullivan (Macy) from the Perkins Institution for the Blind in
Boston, which Bell’s son-in-law directed. Sullivan, a remarkable teacher, remained with Keller
from March 1887 until her own death in October 1939.

Within months Keller had learned to feel objects and associate them with words spelled out by
finger signals on her palm, to read sentences by feeling raised words on cardboard, and to make
her own sentences by arranging words in a frame. During 1888–90 she spent winters at the
Perkins Institution learning Braille. Then she began a slow process of learning to speak under
Sarah Fuller of the Horace Mann School for the Deaf, also in Boston. She also learned to lip-
read by placing her fingers on the lips and throat of the speaker while the words were
simultaneously spelled out for her. At age 14 she enrolled in the Wright-Humason School for the
Deaf in New York City, and at 16 she entered the Cambridge School for Young Ladies in
Massachusetts. She won admission to Radcliffe College in 1900 and graduated cum laude in
1904.
Having developed skills never approached by any similarly disabled person, Keller began to
write of blindness, a subject then taboo in women’s magazines because of the relationship of
many cases to venereal disease. Edward W. Bok accepted her articles for the Ladies’ Home
Journal, and other major magazines—The Century, McClure’s, and The Atlantic Monthly—
followed suit.

She wrote of her life in several books, including The Story of My Life (1903), Optimism (1903),

The World I Live In (1908), My Religion (1927), Helen Keller’s Journal (1938), and The Open
Door (1957). In 1913 she began lecturing (with the aid of an interpreter), primarily on behalf of
the American Foundation for the Blind, for which she later established a $2 million endowment
fund, and her lecture tours took her several times around the world. She cofounded the American
Civil Liberties Union with American civil rights activist Roger Nash Baldwin and others in
1920. Her efforts to improve treatment of the deaf and the blind were influential in removing the
disabled from asylums. She also prompted the organization of commissions for the blind in 30
states by 1937. Keller’s childhood training with Anne Sullivan was depicted in William
Gibson’s play The Miracle Worker (1959), which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1960 and was
subsequently made into a motion picture (1962) that won two Academy Awards.

33. What is the purpose of this text?

Flight 610 was carrying 181 passengers, as well as six cabin crew members and two pilots, from
Jakarta to Pangkal Pinang, on the Indonesian island of Bangka.

Around 19 kilometers (12 miles) after takeoff, it made a request to air traffic control to return to the
airport but did not indicate there was any emergency.

Radar data shows that the plane did not turn back, and air traffic controllers lost contact with it soon
after, Yohanes Sirait, spokesman for AirNav Indonesia, the agency that oversees air traffic navigation,
told CNN.

David Soucie, a former safety inspector with the US Federal Aviation Administration, said the fact
that an emergency wasn't declared should be a cause for concern.

"What's most peculiar to me is the fact that they didn't declare an emergency. They just simply said,
'We're going back'," said Soucie, a CNN safety analyst.

"But when I look at the track of the aircraft after that, the aircraft made a very steep dive after that
which is not typical of what they would've done," he added. "They would have maintained altitude
and made that turn and come back to (the airport)."

A pilot who flew the doomed aircraft from Bali to Jakarta the day before it crashed reported a
problem with one of the instruments mid-flight, NTSC deputy director Satmiko told CNN. Satmiko
had listened to a recorded conversation with air traffic control regarding the problem.

Satmiko said that Lion Air told the NTSC the problem had been fixed.

The airport, runway and weather have been excluded as points of focus for the investigation, he
added, and all attention has turned to the aircraft, pilots, other personnel, and Lion Air's company
policies.

AirNav Indonesia said the flight would have been given a priority landing spot had it declared an
emergency.

Origin of the Landak River

Long time ago, lived a farmer and his wife in a village by the side of a forest. They lived simply and
they like to help other people, especially one who in afflictions. One night, the farmer and his wife
were resting in their house. The farmer was sitting beside his sleeping wife. Suddenly, a white
centipede came out from the wife’s head. The farmer was amazed. He then followed the centipede
until they reach a small pond not far from their house. Then the centipede suddenly disappeared. The
farmer went home and found his wife still soundly asleep.

In the morning, the wife told his husband about the dream she had last night. “I was walking through a
vast field, and I came to a lake. I saw a giant hedgehog in the lake. It was glaring at me, so I ran
away.” After he heard his wife’s dream, the farmer went back to the small pond. In the pond, he saw
something very shiny. He came to the shiny object and took it. It was a golden hedgehog statue. It was
very beautiful. Its eyes were made of diamond. The farmer then brought the statue home.

At night, the farmer had a dream. A giant hedgehog came to him, “Please let me stay in your home.
As return, I will give you everything you want. Just caress the statue’s head and say the prayer. There
are two kinds of prayers, one is to start your wish and the second is to stop your wish. Now memorize
the prayers.”

In the next day, the farmer told his wife about his dream. They really wanted to prove it. The farmer
slowly caressed the statue's head. He said the prayer and asked for rice. Suddenly, rice came out of the
mouth of the statue. The rice kept on coming out from the statue's mouth. The farmer immediately
said the prayer to stop it. The rice then stopped coming out from the statue.

The farmer and his wife then asked for other things, jewelry and other stuff they needed. They became
very rich. But they still like to help other people. A lot of poor came to them for help. Unfortunately, a
thief found out about the secret of the golden hedgehog statue. Pretending to be a poor asking for
help, he stole the statue from the farmer’s house.

The thief blurred to the district area of Ngabang. There was a drought in the area. The thief wanted
sympathy from the people, so he said to them that he would provide them with water. The thief then
caressed the hedgehog statue and said the prayer. Water came out of the statue’s mouth. All the
people were so happy. But the water kept on coming out. The thief didn’t know the prayer to stop the
wish. People who saw the incident were really scared. They ran away to avoid the water as it was
started to flood the area. The thief also wanted to run away, but he cannot move his legs. In his vision,
there was a giant hedgehog holding both his legs. Water kept coming from the statue and slowly it
became a river. The thief was drowned in the river. People then named the river as Hedgehog River or
Sungai Landak.

Ants are eusocial insects of the family Formicidae and, along with the related wasps
and bees, belong to the order Hymenoptera. Ants evolved from wasp-like ancestors in
the Cretaceous period, about 140 million years ago, and diversified after the rise of
flowering plants. More than 12,500 of an estimated total of 22,000 species have been
classified. They are easily identified by their elbowed antennae and the distinctive
node-like structure that forms their slender waists.
Ants form colonies that range in size from a few dozen predatory individuals living in
small natural cavities to highly organized colonies that may occupy large territories
and consist of millions of individuals. Larger colonies consist of various castes of
sterile, wingless females, most of which are workers (ergates), as well as soldiers
(dinergates) and other specialized groups. Nearly all ant colonies also have some
fertile males called "drones" (aner) and one or more fertile females called "queens"
(gynes).The colonies are described as superorganisms because the ants appear to
operate as a unified entity, collectively working together to support the colony.
Ants have colonized almost every landmass on Earth. The only places lacking
indigenous ants are Antarctica and a few remote or inhospitable islands. Ants thrive in

most ecosystems and may form 15–25% of the terrestrial animal biomass. Their
success in so many environments has been attributed to their social organization and
their ability to modify habitats, tap resources, and defend themselves. Their long co-
evolution with other species has led to mimetic, commensal, parasitic, and mutualistic
relationships.
Ant societies have division of labour, communication between individuals, and an
ability to solve complex problems. These parallels with human societies have long
been an inspiration and subject of study. Many human cultures make use of ants in
cuisine, medication, and rituals. Some species are valued in their role as biological
pest control agents. Their ability to exploit resources may bring ants into conflict with
humans, however, as they can damage crops and invade buildings. Some species, such
as the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta), are regarded as invasive species,
establishing themselves in areas where they have been introduced accidentally.

Basically, death penalty is based on the belief that the threat of death makes prospective
criminals think twice before resorting to some criminal act - such as murder, and makes
them totally give up on such crimes. Even though the effectiveness of death penalty as a
crime deterrent has been used to gain support for this concept for quite some time now,
whether it really deters people from resorting to crime is an issue of contention. A study
published in the 'Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology' revealed that 88 percent of
American criminologists believed that death penalty was not an effective crime deterrent.

In fact, approximately 87 percent of the respondents of this study were of the opinion that
abolition of death penalty would have no major impact on crime rates in the country as
such.
On the contrary, several criminologists are of the opinion that the deterrent effect of
punishment in itself is one of the several factors which makes a person indulge in crime,
and doing away with it can help us bring down the crime rate by a significant extent. The
example of Canada wherein the homicide rate declined after abolition of death penalty in
1976 is often used by these people to support their opinion. One has to also give a thought
to the fact that those criminals who resort to a great deal of planning to commit some
crime will never get affected by the threat of being caught and convicted. Similar would
be the case when it comes to crimes by mentally affected people or children for whom
death penalty will seldom act as a deterrent.
