What’s In
How well do you listen? Listening in any language requires focus and
attention. It is a skill that some people need to work harder than others. People
who have difficulty concentrating are typically poor listeners. Listening in a
second language requires even greater focus. To become an effective listener in
English, you need to develop strong listening skills. Listening not only helps you
understand what people are saying to you. It also helps you to speak clearly to
other people. In addition to this, it helps you learn how to pronounce words
properly, how to use intonation, and where to place stress in words and
sentences. It makes your speech easier for other people listening to you to
understand. Indeed, listening is one of the most important skills that you should
have for learning new information.

The human perception of color is caused by the way our eyes 1_____________
to light. While humans can see many different colors, light that is visible to
humans only makes up a small amount of the light in the 2___________. This is
because of the limits of the photoreceptors in our eyes. Human eyes contain types
of photoreceptors known as cones, which are responsible for detecting colored
light. Because light is made up of 3_______, each type of light has a different
wavelength. Cones can pick up on these wavelengths, which is how we
differentiate between colors. Humans have three types of cones in our eyes –
known as red, green, and blue cones. We can see any color of light with a
wavelength within the range of those cones.
However, light outside of the visible range – such as infrared and ultraviolet
light – can’t be seen by the human eye. Though this light is invisible to us, it isn’t
invisible to every 4_____________.Different animals have different amounts of cones
in their eyes. Dogs, for example, only have two types of cones and therefore can’t

than ours, and it can see colors we can’t even 5______________.

Are hard to find Bad things may go
But I know I’m not that kind Like a birth a long time ago
They come and go and You’re like the ship that’s sailing
Sometimes leave us behind Across the sea
Like a wind that passes by To the waves that’s so unkind.

You’re my best friend
When you’re feeling down
And your heart is hurt
You can call on me and
I’ll be there for you friend
