David Russell-Book Editor

I am a book editor and part of my job is to find new writers. I look at samples of
texts and choose the ones that will make money for the company. After that, I
work with the author to edit the book. I also help my company by speaking in
public at conferences and by writing articles.
Usually, I arrive at the office around 9 am and stay until 6 pm, sometimes later,
during the day; I will receive more than 100 e-mails, and get between 15 and 25
phones calls. I will answer correspondence from writers I rarely read at the office,
especially full documents. I read these at home, a few hours on weeknights, quite
a bit more on the weekend.
The best part of the job is seeing an author’s idea develop into a document and
finally into a real book. I also like calling new writers and making an offer on their
books. That’s cool.
I don’t often read for fun anymore-when you edit books all the time, it’s difficult to
turn that side of yourself off and just enjoy it. I still read an average of a book a
week, but it’s not the same.
I spend too much time indoors. My friends have invited me to go swimming or

cycling but I’ve decided to try fishing instead.

OBESITY
Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may
have an adverse effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and/or increased health
problems. Body mass index (BMI), a measurement which compares weight and height, defines
people as overweight (pre-obese) when their BMI is between 25 kg/m2 and 30 kg/m2, and obese
when it is greater than 30 kg/m2.
Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases, particularly heart disease, type 2 diabetes,
breathing difficulties during sleep, certain types of cancer, and osteoarthritis. Obesity is most
commonly caused by a combination of excessive dietary calories, lack of physical activity, and
genetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders,
medications or psychiatric illness. Evidence to support the view that some obese people eat little yet
gain weight due to a slow metabolism is limited; on average obese people have a greater energy
expenditure than their thin counterparts due to the energy required to maintain an increased body
mass.
The primary treatment for obesity is dieting and physical exercise. To supplement this, or in case of
failure, anti-obesity drugs may be taken to reduce appetite or inhibit fat absorption. In severe cases,
surgery is performed or an intragastric balloon is placed to reduce stomach volume and/or bowel
length, leading to earlier satiation and reduced ability to absorb nutrients from food.
Obesity is a leading preventable cause of death worldwide, with increasing prevalence in adults and
children, and authorities view it as one of the most serious public health problems of the 21s century.
Obesity is stigmatized in much of the modern world (particularly in the Western world), though it was
widely perceived as a symbol of wealth and fertility at other times in history, and still is in some parts
of the world.

ARE DOLPHINS THE CLEVEREST ANIMALS?
For many years people believed that the cleverest

animals after man were chimpanzees. Now,
however, there is proof that dolphins may be even
cleverer than these big apes.
Although a dolphin lives in the sea it is not a fish. It
is a mammal. It is in many ways, therefore, like a
human being.
Dolphins have a simple language. They are able to
talk to one another. It may be possible for a man to
learn how to talk to dolphins. But this will not be easy because dolphins cannot hear
the kind of sounds man can make. If man wants to talk to dolphins, therefore, he will
have to make a third language which both he and the dolphins can understand.
Dolphins are also very friendly towards man. They often follow ships. There are many
stories of dolphins guiding ships through difficult and dangerous waters.

She liked flowers. At least, he remembered somebody telling him that she liked roses.
Unfortunately, at that time of year roses were very hard to find, and anyway, even if he
did find them he wouldn't be able to afford them. Not roses and going out to a good
restaurant. So he had got some tulips. It wasn't sure if tulips were the right things to
bring, and also while he was travelling in the bus several people bumped into him and
the flowers were damaged.
He felt uncomfortable in his borrowed coat, and even though Mike had promised him
that it was almost a perfect fit, he felt that the sleeves were too long, and the coat
didn't really go with the color of his trousers. He checked in his pocket again to make
sure he had her address. He still was not sure why she had given it to him, or why she
had agreed to go out that evening at all.
For a few minutes he thought about giving the whole thing up, going home and making
some excuse for the following day. But he knew that this chance would not come
again, and he would hate himself if he did not take it. Slowly, he walked through the
rain to her street.

THE WESTERN ALPHABET

The western alphabet, which is used in Europe, the Americas, Africa, Australia and
New Zealand as well as in other countries, originated in the Middle East. The people
who gave the world this alphabet were the Phoneacians, a people who established
colonies all over the Mediterranean, including Carthage in Africa and Gades in Spain.
In their alphabet, the letters were represented by little pictures which represented
sounds. The Phoneacian A was aelph, which means "bull". And it was made from a
little picture of a bull's head. The letter B was beth which meant "house", and showed
the round-roofed buildings which you can still see today in Syria.
The Phoneacians had contact with another nation of sailors, the Greeks, with whom
they fought and traded. The Greeks also started to use the Phoneacian alphabet. They
changed the names so aelph and beth became alpha and beta. The shapes of the
letters are the same but they have been turned sideways. If you know any Greek, you
can try turning the letters around again, and see how they look. You will see that the
curve on the right of the Greek A becomes the horns of a little bull.
Of course, the first two letters of the alphabet give it its name. Over the years there
have been changes. Latin developed an alphabet with some different letters to the
Greeks, and other letters have been added since. But really westerners are using the
same system of writing which has served them so well for thousands of years.

C. They altered the shape of the letters.
D. They put a curve on the letter A.

PARTE 6
THE SAVANNAH
The tourist looking at the African savannah on a summer afternoon might be excused for thinking that
the wide yellow grass plain was completely deserted of life, almost a desert. With only a few small
thorn trees sticking out through the veldt, there seems to be almost no place for a living creature to
hide.
However, under those trees you might find small steenbok, sleeping in the shade, and waiting for the
night to fall. There may even be a small group of lions somewhere, their bodies exactly the same
shade as the tall grass around them. In the holes in the ground a host of tiny creatures, from rabbits
and badgers to rats and snakes are waiting for the heat to finish.
The tall grass also hides the fact that there may be a small stream running across the middle of the
plain. One clue that there may be water here is the sight of a majestic Marshall eagle circling slowly
over the grassland. When he drops, he may come up with a small fish, or maybe a grass snake that
has been waiting at the edge of a pool in the hope of catching a frog.
The best time to see the animals then, is in the evening, just as the sun is setting. The best time of
the year to come is in late September, or early August, just before the rains. Then the animals must
come to the waterholes, as there is no other place for them to drink. And they like to come while it is
still light, so they can see if any dangers are creeping up on them.
So it is at sunset, and after the night falls, that the creatures of the African veldt rise and go about
their business.

CITY LIFE
The cities we live in show how much we think of them. Look
carefully at the city you live in. What does it say about how much
people think of it? Cities are getting bigger and bigger and so are
their problems.
In a big city you can see people who live in big houses and have a
lot of money to spend. You can also find people who have no
money or home at all. You can often see these people sleeping in
parks or train stations because they don't have anywhere else to go.
Everybody wants to have a car. Some families have two or even three cars and sometimes
each member of the family has their own car! Cars make it easy to get from one place to
another, but they can also make our lives difficult. More and more cars mean traffic
problems and air pollution. In some cities the pollution is so bad that it is a danger to
people's health and to plant life, too! …
Noise pollution is another serious problem. Most noise pollution comes from cars, lorries
and planes or even loud music. These annoying sounds make conversation and some kinds
of work difficult and make it difficult for people to sleep. Many cities look awful because
we throw a lot of rubbish in the streets. The amount of rubbish that we produce is a more
serious problem. There is so much rubbish that we don't know what to do with it!
Recycling is one answer to this problem but we must do a lot more if we want to make a
difference.
These are just some of the problems in a city; there are others. We must act now, if we
want to better things in the cities we live in. We don't have time to lose. Tomorrow may
be too late.

MARK HAMILTON: FITNESS INSTRUCTOR ON A CRUISE

SHIP
I thought about working on a ship after I watched a TV documentary about life on
a cruise ship. It seemed really exciting. At the time I was working at my local
gym. I enjoyed the job, but I’d been there for a few years, I’d never lived in a
different town and I’d never been abroad. I really liked the idea of travelling and
seeing the world.
I looked on the Internet and found a website with hundreds of jobs on cruise
ships. I applied for a few jobs but didn’t get any. I then decided to give up my job
in the gym and go on a trip around Australia. I wanted to get some experience of
travelling. My boss was great and said I could go back any time, but luckily, when
I returned from my trip, I got the next job I applied for. It was as a fitness
instructor on a cruise ship going to the Caribbean.
Life on a cruise ship is busy, but that’s what makes it exciting. A typical cruise ship
has hundreds of employees from sailors to waiters and hairdressers to tour guides.
I love the variety of my work. I teach aerobics, yoga, and fitness and I’m also a
personal trainer in the gym. I work twelve hours a day and have two days off per
cruise for sightseeing, but that’s enough for me. It’s always great to come home,
because I miss my friends and family, but then I love leaving again too.

PARTE 6

Hi Steve,
I´ve got a 15-minute break between lessons so I thouhgt I´d write you a quick
letter.
I needn´t have been so worried about doing a summer course, because I´m really
enjoying myself. To tell you the truth, I didn´t expect to have so much fun! It´s not really
a holiday if you have to have 4 hours of English everyday, is it?
But even the lessons have been fun and the teachers are friendly and helpful.
Since we have to speak English all the time, My English has really improved.
The school is called St GilesĆollege and is situaded in beautiful countryside.

There are playing fields for outdoor sports such as football and athletics and there´s a
big swimming pool. If you prefer indoor sports, there´s also a huge gymnasium with a
basketball court. The only problem is that we are in the middle of nowhere so there´s
not much to do in the evenings. We also have to be in bed at eleven oćlock, which I
find difficult. We have been on a few excursions though. One of them was to London,
which ia a fantastic city!
The classrooms are bright and comfortable and have all the latest equipment
for language learning: computers, CD roms and so on. But there´s always a queue to
use the computers.
See you when I get back,
Ivan
