Line STRESS
0 Stress is often called the 21st century illness but it has always been with us if
1 perhaps with different names. Those days we regard stress is a necessary evil of
2 modern living. Yet stress is not negative and without it we will not enjoy some of
3 the highpoints in life just as the anticipation before a date or the tension leading up
4 to an important match. All these situations produce stress but unless you can
5 control it and not the other way around you will feel stimulated, not worn out.
6 Unlike these situations, what are generally positive and easier to deal with, sitting
7 in a train that is late, being stuck in a traffic jam, working to a tight deadline are
8 more harder to manage and control. Stress is now recognized as a medical problem
9 and as a significant factor in causing coronary heart disease, high blooded pressure
10 and a high cholesterol count. Patients are often unwilling to admit to stress
11 problems although they feel they are a form of social failure and it is important that
12 symptoms should be identified in order to avoid unnecessary suffering. So why
13 should we be looking out for as danger signals? Common signs of stress are
14 increased tiredness, irritability and the inability to solve with certain situations.

Write your answers in the answer box below. (10 points)
It stands to reason that galaxies, large star systems that contain millions or even billions of
stars, should collide with one another fairly often, given that the average separation between
galaxies is only approximately 20 times the diameter of the average galaxy. In contrast, stars
almost never collide because the average distance between stars is astronomical, perhaps
10,000,000 times their diameter.
Using a telescope, it is possible to find hundreds of galaxies that appear to be colliding.
However, when two galaxies appear to come into contact, there is in reality no direct contact
between the stars of one galaxy and the stars of the other. Instead, the two galaxies pass through
each other, and the gravitational forces in the two galaxies alter the shapes of the galaxies, often
producing tails and bridges. One well-known pair of colliding galaxies, for example, is called the
Mice because each of the two interacting galaxies resembles a mouse with a long tail, and the
Whirlpool galaxy appears to be connected to a smaller galaxy by means of a bridge extending from
one of its long spirals. It is impossible for astronomers to monitor the changing shapes of colliding
galaxies because the interactions between galaxies last hundreds of millions of years, but it is
possible to study galaxies in various stages of collision and draw conclusions about what happens
when galaxies collide.
In certain situations, when two galaxies collide, they do not always pass through each other
and emerge as two separate galaxies. In one situation, if two galaxies are moving slowly enough,
they may collide and then may not have enough velocity to escape each other’s gravitational pull
after the collision. In this case, the two galaxies will collide, and then move past each other, and
then be pulled back to collide again, and continue this way until they eventually merge into a
single galaxy. In another situation, if a much larger galaxy comes into contact with a smaller
galaxy, the larger galaxy may absorb the smaller one in a process called galactic cannibalism. In
this process, a larger galaxy first pulls away the outer stars of the smaller galaxy and then begins to
pull at the denser core. While the process of galactic cannibalism is taking place and the two
galaxies are merging into one, the cores of both the larger galaxy and the smaller galaxy can be
clearly visible.
Some giant elliptical galaxies, with what appear to be multiple nuclei, have been found in the
skies, and astronomers once thought that these giant galaxies were giant galactic cannibals that had
consumed many smaller galaxies recently enough that the cores of the cannibalized galaxies were
still intact. One such galaxy, with what appeared to be eight separate nuclei, was found and was
used to put forth the hypothesis that galaxies could be voracious monsters capable of swallowing
up uncountable other galaxies simultaneously. However, further studies have shown that the
numerous nuclei that seemed to be part of a single large galaxy were in reality the nuclei of smaller
galaxies that were in front of or behind the larger galaxy. Thus, astronomers are now confident that
galactic cannibalism exists among a limited number of interacting galaxies; however, astronomers
are not convinced of the existence of cannibalistic galactic monsters that swallow up large
numbers of smaller galaxies simultaneously.
Signs of galactic cannibalism exist even in our own galaxy, the Milky Way. Astronomers have
found younger stars south of the galaxy’s disk, where only older stars should be found, suggesting
that the younger stars formed when our galaxy cannibalized a smaller galaxy. Furthermore, it can
6
be clearly seen now that our galaxy is beginning to digest the Magellanic Clouds, which are small
irregular galaxies that are companions to the Milky Way and are visible in the southern skies over
Earth.

Climate change and the Inuit
A
Unusual incidents are being reported across the Arctic. Inuit families going off on snowmobiles to
prepare their summer hunting camps have found themselves cut off from home by a sea of mud,
following early thaws. There are reports of igloos losing their insulating properties as the snow
drips and refreezes, of lakes draining into the sea as permafrost melts, and sea ice breaking up
earlier than usual, carrying seals beyond the reach of hunters. Climate change may still be a rather
abstract idea to most of us, but in the Arctic it is already having dramatic effects - if summertime
ice continues to shrink at its present rate, the Arctic Ocean could soon become virtually ice-free in
summer. The knock-on effects are likely to include more warming, cloudier skies, increased
precipitation and higher sea levels. Scientists are increasingly keen to find out what’s going on
because they consider the Arctic the ‘canary in the mine’ for global warming - a warning of what’s
in store for the rest of the world.
B
For the Inuit the problem is urgent. They live in precarious balance with one of the toughest
environments on earth. Climate change, whatever its causes, is a direct threat to their way of life.
Nobody knows the Arctic as well as the locals, which is why they are not content simply to stand
back and let outside experts tell them what’s happening. In Canada, where the Inuit people are
jealously guarding their hard-won autonomy in the country’s newest territory, Nunavut, they
believe their best hope of survival in this changing environment lies in combining their ancestral
knowledge with the best of modern science. This is a challenge in itself.
8
C
The Canadian Arctic is a vast, treeless polar desert that’s covered with snow for most of the year.
Venture into this terrain and you get some idea of the hardships facing anyone who calls this
home. Farming is out of the question and nature offers meagre pickings. Humans first settled in the
Arctic a mere 4,500 years ago, surviving by exploiting sea mammals and fish. The environment
tested them to the limits: sometimes the colonists were successful, sometimes they failed and
vanished. But around a thousand years ago, one group emerged that was uniquely well adapted to
cope with the Arctic environment. These Thule people moved in from Alaska, bringing kayaks,
sleds, dogs, pottery and iron tools. They are the ancestors of today’s Inuit people.
D
Life for the descendants of the Thule people is still harsh. Nunavut is 1.9 million square kilometers
of rock and ice, and a handful of islands around the North Pole. It’s currently home to 2,500
people, all but a handful of them indigenous Inuit. Over the past 40 years, most have abandoned
their nomadic ways and settled in the territory’s 28 isolated communities, but they still rely heavily
on nature to provide food and clothing. Provisions available in local shops have to be flown into
Nunavut on one of the most costly air networks in the world, or brought by supply ship during the
few ice-free weeks of summer. It would cost a family around £7,000 a year to replace meat they
obtained themselves through hunting with imported meat. Economic opportunities are scarce, and
for many people state benefits are their only income.
E
While the Inuit may not actually starve if hunting and trapping are curtailed by climate change,
there has certainly been an impact on people’s health. Obesity, heart disease and diabetes are
beginning to appear in a people for whom these have never before been problems. There has been
a crisis of identity as the traditional skills of hunting, trapping and preparing skins have begun to
disappear. In Nunavut’s ‘igloo and email’ society, where adults who were born in igloos have
children who may never have been out on the land, there’s a high incidence of depression.
F
With so much at stake, the Inuit are determined to play a key role in teasing out the mysteries of
climate change in the Arctic. Having survived there for centuries, they believe their wealth of
traditional knowledge is vital to the task. And Western scientists are starting to draw on this
wisdom, increasingly referred to as ‘Inuit Qaujimajatugangit’, or IQ. ‘In the early days scientists
ignored us when they came up here to study anything. They just figured these people don’t know
very much so we won't ask them,’ says John Amagoalik, an Inuit leader and politician. ‘But in
recent years IQ has had much more credibility and weight.’ In fact it is now a requirement for
anyone hoping to get permission to do research that they consult the communities, who are helping
to set the research agenda to reflect their most important concerns. They can turn down
applications from scientists they believe will work against their interests, or research projects that
will impinge too much on their daily lives and traditional activities.
G
Some scientists doubt the value of traditional knowledge because the occupation of the Arctic
doesn’t go back far enough. Others, however, point out that the first weather stations in the far
north date back just 50 years. There are still huge gaps in our environmental knowledge, and
despite the scientific onslaught, many predictions are no more than best guesses. IQ could help to
bridge the gap and resolve the tremendous uncertainty about how much of what we’re seeing is
natural capriciousness and how much is the consequence of human activity.

 If you visit the Canadian Arctic, you immediately appreciate the problems faced by people for
whom this is home. It would clearly be impossible for the people to engage in 6. ________as a
means of supporting themselves. For thousands of years they have had to rely on catching sea
mammals and fish as a means of sustenance. The harsh surroundings saw many who tried to
settle there pushed to their limits, although some were successful. The 7.________ people were
an example of the latter and for them the environment did not prove unmanageable. For the

give up their 9._______ lifestyle, but they continue to depend mainly on nature for  their food
and clothes. Imported produce is particularly expensive. Besides, with the spread of common
