The people who built Stonehenge in southem England thousands of years ago had wild parties,
eating barbecued pigs and smashing up pottery before throwing their dead relatives into the ver.
This is according to recent work by archaeologists - history experts who investigate how human
beings lived in the past.
Archaeologists digging near Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain last year discovered a large
prehistoric village where they think the builders ofthe mysterious stone circle used to live
The village was shown to be about 4,600 years old, the same age as Stonehenge and as old as the
plramids in Egypt, The village is less than 2 miles (3.2 kilometres) ftom Stonehenge and lies inside
a massive manmade circular earthwork, or "henge," known as Dufiington Walls.
Remains found at the site included jewellery, stone arowheads, tools made of deer antlrs, and
huge amounts of animal bones and broken pottery.

Read the following tcxt. Answer the questions (1-9) after the tcxt in a
maximum ofF|VE words on the lines that follow thc qucstions-
Contractions like ./or'l rrr'l, etc. count as ONE word. There is an example
(r) at the beginning.
Children aged under 16 are to be givcn frcc travel on London's buses in a groundbrcaking !70m
scheme.
Ken Livingstone, the capital's mayor, yesterday announced that liee bus travel curently
available for under I ls will be extended from Septcmber L k will be the first scheme of its kind
in thc world.
Thc initiative will cost Transpod lor London f,50m a ycar in lost fares and up to ,20m to pay
for thc cxtra buses.
It is seen as a way ofencouraging the young to usc public transport and helping those on low
incomcs. lhc rchenre is e\pecled to add 50gJoume)5 a ycar ro lhc pre.enl 250nt
Thosc claiming free travel will need an Oyster smaficard, but thc mayor said those misbehaving
or abusing the system would lose the concession. Mr Livingstone said technology will allow the
easier identification of those who engage in bad behavjour. London's bus police force, the
Tnnsport Opcrational Command, is being expanded too.
The schemc will bc cxtcnded further next year to under l8s in full-time education.
Abolition of thc child fare .structure will mean higher payments for tourists and children from
outside the capital, who will be required to pay the adult fare.
The move gained a cool rcccption from Conservatives in the capital, who accused the mayor of
extravagance. They also pointed out that Mr Livingstone's transport commissioner, Bob Kiley,
dislikes such re\enue-scpprng lrec larcs.
But Mr Livingstone said the measure enjoys wide support. "It is a gift by London to the
younger generation so they can get out and about and this city," he said. "lt is a privilcgc

By the 1880's thc U.S. govemment had managed to confinc almost all of the lndians on
reservations which coosisted ofpoor quality land. Rations and supplies that fr, , _ been

origin in a Paiute medicine man named Wovoka, who in 1887, had a vision where hc mct God.

naking them sticky. It's a process known to those in thc trade as 'sticky tape' or'sticky shed

Ifyou find life and it's DNA based you don't know whether we are descendents of it or they're
descendents from us, or, whcther DNA is some fundamental feature oflife, no mattcr where you
lind it in the universe. It'd be morc fun if the life on Mars had some completely other kind of
basis fbr chcmistry, but it's probably not likely, because carbon is an extremely fertile element
on the pcriodic tablc. If you want the most fertile chemistry on which to experiment with life,
carbon-based chcmistry is your choice.
The CD itself is onc layer of chemicals on top of another that interacts with light and heat and
moisture like an old 78 does. Eventually that CD will not be playable and eventually our CD
players will not be around. The value of making electronic files that you can put on a server is
that you can upgrade continually.
Does a river run through it? in this case 'it' being Mars. Three years ago the US sent two small
robots to the surface of the Red Planet. They'rc called Spirit and Opportunity and they've been
roving ever since, under thc watchful eye of an orbiting NASA satellite. Recently the intrepid
explorers made a serics of tantalising discoveries. High rcsolution images of gullies and a
number ofscdiment samples suggest flowing water on the planet.

dishcanened hc took a law degrce instead. lronically, it was a book detailing his cxperiences
as a youngsler at Harvard Law School that paved the way for a lucrative and lauded writing
career and hc's combined both jobs evcr since. To date he's written six bestsellers, the most
famous of which, 'Presumed Innocent', was also a Hollywood hit for Harrison Ford.
Tonow's high quality legal thrillers all take advantage ofhis dayjob, by featuring a lawyer
at the heart ofthe action.
The latest, 'Ordinary Heroes' is no exception in that respect, but it's arresting tale of two
Americans playing cat-and-mouse in the closing months of World War [I takes him into ne$
territory. The story centres on a military lawyer David Dubin, and Robcrt Martin, the war
hero he's under orders to detaih. It's a story that offers not odly a page-turning adventure,
but addresses important questions about the impact ofwar on the human soul, our dcspcrate
dctermination to cling to life at all costs, and the tlue nature ofheroism. The book contains a
horritic description of a concentration camp, which we also discuss during the interview.
Scott Toffow wrote the book using his own father's war diaries, and I asked him first how
much ofhis father there is in David Dubin.
- you knov it s an odd thing because certainly the hiqh poihls of David Dubin's -*ar
experience dre verv sinilar to the high points of Darid Torrow's, but at a character Dd|id
Dubin is a very dif/brent nan lhan my JAher. My father y,as kind of a boisterous, macho,
somewhat chaotic personality. Dubin is a very bultoned-up, proper young man whose main
goal for hinself is lo be, you know, thoroughly Americanised, and Americanised as a
gcntlemctn. I don't think ny.falher ever envisioned himsefas a member oflhe upper class.
- How did you stumblc on his diaries?
- You know I kind of lmew that they werc there. My Mom had kept all of my fbther's war
memorabilia in a disorganised mess in a large cardboard box. And as a boy I had seen
some of the more dramatic pieces, you know a German MauseL lhe palches of an SS
Officer...
- Oh how exciting lbr a little boy!

mother vrould she hind if I read theh. M)t htother's been wry generous throughout, because
she doesn't agree vith ererything I've said and concluded, but she gave me Jiee access to
lhose lellers.
- War has a very dramatic effect on Dubin, by the end ofthe book he's a changed man in not
necessarily very good ways...
