Australia has one of the world's most important mining industries. It is a major exporter of coal, iron ore, gold and copper and is self-sufficient in all minerals bar petroleum. Since the first discoveries, the coal in 1798, mineral production has risen every year. In the decade to 1992 it doubled. #RA #Apeuni_prediction #Apeuni_346 ——————————————————— 🎖Together we persevere, Together we can 🎖 @Iran_pte_house

A recent trend in the entertainment world is to adapt classic works of literature for either TV or movies. One argument is that this is to everyone's benefit, as it introduces people to works they might otherwise never have, but is rarely done successfully. #Ra #Apeuni_prediction #Apeuni_51

Having tracked down research that is ---1--- to your area of interest, the next task is to actually make sense of that research. This section is intended to show you how to be ---2--- of the research you are reviewing and how to check that the evidence is ---3--- and represented ---4---.

I am a cyclist and a motorist. I fasten my seatbelt when I drive and wear a helmet on my bike ---1--- the risk of injury. I am convinced that these are prudent safety measures. I ---2--- many friends to wear helmets on the grounds that transplant surgeons call those without helmets, "donors on wheels". But a book on ‘Risk' by my colleague John Adams has made me re-examine my deeply ---3--- convictions. Adams has completely undermined my confidence in these apparently sensible precautions. What he has persuasively argued, particularly in relation to seat belts, is that the evidence that they do what they are supposed to do is very suspect. This is in spite of numerous claims that seat belts ---4--- many thousands of lives every year. There is remarkable data on the years 1970 and 1978 in which countries where seat belts are compulsory ---5---, on average, about 5 per cent more road accident deaths following the introduction of the law. In the UK, road deaths have decreased steadily from about 7,000 a year in 1972 to just over 4,000 in 1989. There is no evidence in the trend for any effect of the seat belt law that ---6--- in 1983. Moreover, there is evidence that the number of cyclists and pedestrians killed actually increased by about 10 per cent. 1) A. reduces B. has reduced C. is reducing D. to reduce 2) A. been persuading B. have persuaded C. am persuading D. persuade 3) A. held B. hold C. holding D. holds 4) A. save B. to save C. have saved D. are saving 5) A. having B. are having C. have had D. have 6) A. had been introduced B. was introduced C. introduces D. introduced #RWFIB #634_Seatbelt

The image of a wolf silhouetted against the night sky ---1--- many to believe that wolves howl at the moon. However, scientific investigation into the behavior of these canines reveals that the moon's presence ---2--- little to do with their iconic vocalizations. Wolves use howling as a form of communication, not as a homage to the celestial body above. Howling serves several critical functions within wolf packs: it helps members ---3--- in touch, allowing them to locate one another when separated by large distances. It also serves as a territorial claim, ---4--- other packs away from their domain. The misconception that wolves howl at the moon likely stems from the coincidental timing of their howls with the moon's visibility in the night sky. Wolves are more active during the night, which is also when the moon is most visible, ---5--- to the association between the two. Additionally, the posture a wolf adopts when howling — nose pointed upwards — further perpetuates the myth. In reality, wolves point their muzzles toward the sky ---6--- their calls as far as possible, not because they are directing their howls at the moon. 1) A. has led B. led C. is leading D. leads 2) A. to have B. having C. had had D. has 3) A.

Gas drilling on the Indonesian of java ---1--- a 'mud volcano' that has killed 13 people and may render four square miles (ten square kilometers) of countryside uninhabitable for years. In a report ---2--- on January 23, a team of British researchers says the deadly upwelling began when an exploratory gas well punched through a layer of rock 9300 feet (2800 meters) below the surface, allowing hot, high-pressure water ---3---. The water carried mud to the surface, where it has spread across a region 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) in diameter in the eight months since the eruption began. The mud volcano is similar to a gusher or blowout, which ---4--- in oil drilling when oil or gas squirt to the surface, team says. This upwelling, however, spews out a volume of mud equivalent to a dozen Olympic swimming pools each day. Although the eruption isn't as violent as a conventional volcano, more than a dozen people died when a natural gas pipeline ---5---. The research team, who published their findings in the February issue of GSA Today, also estimate that the volcano, ---6--- Lusi, will leave more than 11,000 people permanently displaced. 1) A. had triggered B. triggers C. is triggering D. has triggered 2) A. has released B. release C. released D. releasing 3) A. has escaped B. to escape C. escaping D. escapes 4) A. occurred B. is occurred C. occurs D. is occurring 5) A. ruptured B. had ruptured C. has ruptured D. ruptures 6) A. calling B. is called C. called D. has been called #RWFIB #219_Gas_Drilling
