Exam Memories – 21st June, Singapore

Reading FIB

From the time of the very earliest civilisations man has wondered about the world he lives in,
about how it was created and about how it will end. In these distant times the sun was seen
to make its daily across the sky. At night the moon appeared. Every new night
the moon waxed or waned a little and on a few nights it did not appear at all. At night the
great dome of the heavens was dotted with tiny specks of light. They known as
the stars. It was thought that every star in the heavens had its own purpose and that the
of the universe could be discovered by making a study of them. It was well known that there
were wandering stars, they appeared in different nightly positions against their neighbours
and they became known as planets. It took centuries; in fact it took millennia, for man to
the true nature of these wandering stars and to evolve a model of the world to
accommodate them and to their positions in the sky.

1. No one in Parliament would know better than Peter Garrett what largesse copyright can confer so it
may seem right that he should announce aroyalty for artists, amounting to 5 percent of all sales after the
original one, which can go on giving to their families for as much as 150 years. But that ignores the truth
that copyright law is a scandal, recently exacerbated by the Free Trade Agreement with the US which
required extension of copyright to 70 years after death. Is it scandalous that really valuable copyrights
end up in the ownership of corporations (although Agatha Christie's no-doubt worthy great-
grandchildren are still reaping the benefits of West End success for her who dun nits and members of the
Garrick Club enjoy the continuing fruits of A.A. Milne's Christopher Robin books)? No. The scandal is that
being peasants politicians have attempted to appear cultured by creating private assets which depend on
an act of Parliament for their existence and by giving away much more in value than any public benefit
could justify. In doing so they have betrayed our trust.

2. In an attempt to lure new students, leading business schools - including Harvard, Stanford, the
University of Chicago and Wharton – have moved away from the unofficial admissions and
prerequisite of four years’ work experience and instead have set their sights on recent college
graduates and so-called ‘early career professionals with only a couple years of work under the belt
3. Joseph Engelberger, a pioneer in industrial robotics, once remarked “I can’t define a robot but I know
one when I see one” If you consider all the different machines people call robots, you can see that it's
nearly impossible to come up with a comprehensive definition

4. Barrie Finning's, a professor at Monash University’s college of pharmacy in Melbourne, and PhD
student Anita Schneider, recently tested a new wrinkle cure. Twice daily, 20 male and female volunteers
applied a liquid containing Myoxinol, a patented extract of okra (Hibiscus esculentus) seed, to one side of
their faces. On the other side they applied a similar liquid without Myoxinol. Every week for a month
their wrinkles were tested by self-assessment, photography and the size of depressions made in silicon
moulds. The results were impressive.After a month the depth and number of wrinkles on the Myoxinol-
treated side were reduced by approximately 27 per cent. But Finnin’s research, commissioned by a
cosmetics company, is unlikely to be published in a scientific publication. It’s hard to even find studies
that show the active ingredients in cosmetics penetrate the skin, let alone more comprehensive research
on their effects. Even when rigorous studies are commissioned, companies usually control whether the
work is published in the traditional scientific literature.

Effective learning requires time, comfort and peace so it is impossible to combine

study and employment. Study and employment distract one from another. To what

Historical Records
1) Historical records, coins, and other date-bearing objects can help – if they exist.
But evenprehistoric sites contain records – written in nature’s hand.
2) The series of strata in an archaeological dig enables an excavator to date
recovered objects relatively, if not absolutely.
3) However, when archaeologists want know the absolute date of a site, they can
often go beyond simple stratigraphy.
4) For example, tree rings, Dendrochronology (literally, te of a site, they cooden
artefacts by matching their ring patterns to known records, which, in some areas of
the world, span several thousand years
