When Queen Victoria died in 1901, the world was entering a new and exciting period of change. For instance, in that year, for the first time, wireless signals had crossed the Atlantic and, in the following year, an airship flew from Europe to America.

It is already possible to 'print' three-dimensional objects out of plastic and metal using a 3-D printer. Now scientists are developing printers that will be able

to print human organs and body parts. If they are successful, doctors could save millions of lives. At the moment, scientists are able to print human tissue and

bane, but the printing of whole organs will probably be a reality by 2025. Doctors are certain that bio-printing will revolutionize the treatment of cancer and 29

heart disease. Moreover, if we can produce organs such as hearts and kidneys, patients won't die while theycre waiting for an organ donor. The technology is

very expensive and the cost might not come down for a while but when it does, bio-printing could play an important part in all our lives.

The word "politics" comes from the Latin politio, meaning 'policy', and politics is generally defined as the science or art of government. Politics has played an

increasing part in human affairs since men and women first organised themselves into societies, and most of history is an account of politics in one form or

another. There were brief periods, of relatively free or representative government during the Greek and Roman eras. But until the seventeenth century, 29

politics was mostly the concern of powerful monarchs or other people in positions of high authority, such as church leaders. The rise of political parties during

the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries introduced the concept of government by consent rather than by force

It is clear from the passage that in the 17th century...

A.e. government and politics were always in the hands of kings

B. a radical change in the concept of government began to take place

C. there was a change in that governments started to rule by force

Primary education begins in the UK at the age of five and continues until age 11. These schools are mixed - girls and boys attend the same school. Secondary

school lasts for five years (from age II to 16). Between the age of II and 14 students do not sit for any public examinations. These schools may be either

single-sex (just boys or girls) or mixed (both boys and girls). A student automatically progresses to the next level or year and does not repeat the year even if 29

the student has failed his or her examinations. When students complete their secondary education they can choose further education or they can leave school

and look for a job. Further education means students prepare for their A-Level exams. These are qualifications for students who plan to go to college or

University.
