The forest from which man takes his timber is the tallest and most impressive plant community on earth. In terms of man"s 11 life it appears permanent and unchanging, save for the seasonal growth and fall of the leaves, but to foresters it represents the climax of a long succession of events.
No wooded landscape we see today has been forest for all time. Plants have minimum requirements for temperature and 12 and, in ages past, virtually every part of earth"s surface has at some time been either too dry or too cold for plants to survive. However, as soon as climatic conditions change in favor of plant life, a(n) 13 sequence of changes occurs, called a primary succession.
First to colonize the 14 lands are the lowly lichens, surviving on bare rock. Slowly, the acids produced by these organisms crack the rock surface, plant debris 15 , and mosses establish a shallow roothold. Ferns may follow and, with short grasses and shrubs, gradually form a covering of plant life. Roots probe even deeper into the developing soil and eventually large shrubs give way to the first trees. These grow rapidly, cutting off sunlight from the smaller plants, and soon establish complete domination closing their ranks and forming a climax community which may 16 for thousands of years.
Yet even this community is not everlasting. Fire may destroy it outright and settlers may cut it down to gain land for 17 or cultivation. If the land is then abandoned, a(n) 18 succession will take over, developing much faster on the more hospitable soil. Shrubs and trees are among the early invaders, their seeds carried by the wind, by birds and 19 in the coats of mammals.
For as long as it stands and thrives, the forest is a vast 20 , storing energy and many elements essential for life.

The most precious fluid on earth is not oil, but water. There are few challenges as important as conserving the world"s usable water and 1 clean drinking water and water for irrigation to those who need it. Yet this work is not getting done. Humans are depleting the earth"s store of us able water at a rate that will soon 2 our food supply. Poor water management already kills millions of people a year and 3 hundreds of millions to hunger.
The technology exists to solve these problems. Providing 4 with drinking water and sanitation, for example, is easy to do and a cost-effective way to prevent deaths and disease. But because those who suffer are poor, their access to water is rarely a political 5 . There is now a(n) 6 for progress. More than 100 water ministers from around the world, along with thousands of water experts from villagers to scientists, have gathered in the Netherlands. The 7 will be useful if it can persuade governments and international banks to pay more attention to 8 and fair distribution of water.
In 1980, the U.N. set a goal of safe drinking water for all by 1990. Because of international prodding, about two billion new people received clean drinking water over the 9 14 years.

About 50 years ago, the idea of disabled people doing sports was never heard of. But when the 31 games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann, the situation began to change. Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been asked by the British government to set up a(n) 32 centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries included sports for the disabled.
In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, five teams took part. From those beginnings things developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the Disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are 33 separately. In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville. In the 1984 Wheelchair Olympic Games, 1604 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part. 34 , they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics.
The Games have been a great success in 35 international friendship and understanding, and in proving that being disabled does not 36 you can"t enjoy sports. One small 37 of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games, however, has been the 38 of the International Olympic Committee to include the disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able bodied. Perhaps a few more years are still needed to 39 those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should not be 40 .

The forest from which man takes his timber is the tallest and most impressive plant community on earth. In terms of man"s 11 life it appears permanent and unchanging, save for the seasonal growth and fall of the leaves, but to foresters it represents the climax of a long succession of events.
No wooded landscape we see today has been forest for all time. Plants have minimum requirements for temperature and 12 and, in ages past, virtually every part of earth"s surface has at some time been either too dry or too cold for plants to survive. However, as soon as climatic conditions change in favor of plant life, a(n) 13 sequence of changes occurs, called a primary succession.
First to colonize the 14 lands are the lowly lichens, surviving on bare rock. Slowly, the acids produced by these organisms crack the rock surface, plant debris 15 , and mosses establish a shallow roothold. Ferns may follow and, with short grasses and shrubs, gradually form a covering of plant life. Roots probe even deeper into the developing soil and eventually large shrubs give way to the first trees. These grow rapidly, cutting off sunlight from the smaller plants, and soon establish complete domination closing their ranks and forming a climax community which may 16 for thousands of years.

About 50 years ago, the idea of disabled people doing sports was never heard of. But when the 31 games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann, the situation began to change. Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been asked by the British government to set up a(n) 32 centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries included sports for the disabled.
In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, five teams took part. From those beginnings things developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the Disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are 33 separately. In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville. In the 1984 Wheelchair Olympic Games, 1604 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part. 34 , they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics.
The Games have been a great success in 35 international friendship and understanding, and in proving that being disabled does not 36 you can"t enjoy sports. One small 37 of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games, however, has been the 38 of the International Olympic Committee to include the disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able bodied. Perhaps a few more years are still needed to 39 those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should not be 40 .

Some societal variation 24 from the different demands made by different ecosystems. Customs and ways of life that would be adaptive in one ecosystem would be maladaptive in another.
We confront a habitat and 25 a mode of existence not so much as lone individuals, but cooperatively as larger social units. Social organization and technology are our chief adaptive mechanisms. Social organization develops as we create stable, ordered relationships and become infused with common cultural 26 . Much depends on whether or not our values, norms, beliefs and institutions favor or foreclose new avenues of adaptation. 27 , technology-the application of knowledge for practical ends—allows us to harness and change aspects of our environment. In its broadest 28 , technology entails the practical arts and skills of human society. As technology has become more advanced, we have gained access to greater amounts of non-human energy (animal, water, fossil fuel, 29 , and so on ). In turn, new sources of energy have allowed our 30 to expand and change. Other changes follow as well.

The most precious fluid on earth is not oil, but water. There are few challenges as important as conserving the world"s usable water and 1 clean drinking water and water for irrigation to those who need it. Yet this work is not getting done. Humans are depleting the earth"s store of us able water at a rate that will soon 2 our food supply. Poor water management already kills millions of people a year and 3 hundreds of millions to hunger.
The technology exists to solve these problems. Providing 4 with drinking water and sanitation, for example, is easy to do and a cost-effective way to prevent deaths and disease. But because those who suffer are poor, their access to water is rarely a political 5 . There is now a(n) 6 for progress. More than 100 water ministers from around the world, along with thousands of water experts from villagers to scientists, have gathered in the Netherlands. The 7 will be useful if it can persuade governments and international banks to pay more attention to 8 and fair distribution of water.
In 1980, the U.N. set a goal of safe drinking water for all by 1990. Because of international prodding, about two billion new people received clean drinking water over the 9 14 years. A new 10 is urgently needed to spread these healthy gains, help poor farmers and conserve the world"s precious supply of us able water.

About 50 years ago, the idea of disabled people doing sports was never heard of. But when the 31 games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann, the situation began to change. Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been asked by the British government to set up a(n) 32 centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries included sports for the disabled.
In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, five teams took part. From those beginnings things developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the Disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are 33 separately. In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville. In the 1984 Wheelchair Olympic Games, 1604 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part. 34 , they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics.
The Games have been a great success in 35 international friendship and understanding, and in proving that being disabled does not 36 you can"t enjoy sports. One small 37 of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games, however, has been the 38 of the International Olympic Committee to include the disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able bodied. Perhaps a few more years are still needed to 39 those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should not be 40 .

The forest from which man takes his timber is the tallest and most impressive plant community on earth. In terms of man"s 11 life it appears permanent and unchanging, save for the seasonal growth and fall of the leaves, but to foresters it represents the climax of a long succession of events.
No wooded landscape we see today has been forest for all time. Plants have minimum requirements for temperature and 12 and, in ages past, virtually every part of earth"s surface has at some time been either too dry or too cold for plants to survive. However, as soon as climatic conditions change in favor of plant life, a(n) 13 sequence of changes occurs, called a primary succession.
First to colonize the 14 lands are the lowly lichens, surviving on bare rock. Slowly, the acids produced by these organisms crack the rock surface, plant debris 15 , and mosses establish a shallow roothold. Ferns may follow and, with short grasses and shrubs, gradually form a covering of plant life. Roots probe even deeper into the developing soil and eventually large shrubs give way to the first trees. These grow rapidly, cutting off sunlight from the smaller plants, and soon establish complete domination closing their ranks and forming a climax community which may 16 for thousands of years.
Yet even this community is not everlasting. Fire may destroy it outright and settlers may cut it down to gain land for 17 or cultivation. If the land is then abandoned, a(n) 18 succession will take over, developing much faster on the more hospitable soil. Shrubs and trees are among the early invaders, their seeds carried by the wind, by birds and 19 in the coats of mammals.
For as long as it stands and thrives, the forest is a vast 20 , storing energy and many elements essential for life.
