The original attraction of the cyber cafe
In the early nineties in Great Britain going for a coffee and surfing the Net were new and exciting things to do. The cyber café was a successful mixture of two things: coffee and the Internet. Not even cold coffee and slow connections put people off from going to these cafés.
(1)___________________
Ten years later the picture has changed and in the 21st century millions of people can use the
Internet from home, work, school or university. In many ways the Internet has become a personal playground and as for the coffee, well, there's a lot more choice of different coffee shops serving every kind of coffee you can wish for.
(2)__________________
So who's using the cyber cafés now that surfing the Net is as ordinary as waking up every morning? Some people say that if their computer goes wrong at home they don't bother to get it fixed. They will rely on the cyber café to find out what is happening in the world and to check their e-mail; they feel that there is nothing special about cyber cafés any more. These cafés are part of the cultural scene in the same way that cinemas and supermarkets are.
(3)___________________
One man, who is the director of a chain of Internet shops, says that although consumer demand for using the Internet has risen, home computers are no good if you are out and about or happen to be on holiday somewhere. The cyber café is the obvious place to go if you want to keep in touch with friends and family.

Most of our users are backpackers and international students checking their e-mail,' he says. 'We
also operate a price structure which is good for those students who get up early. This means that the cheapest time of day is six in the morning and as the café fills up, the price goes up. Early evening is one of the most expensive times.'
(5)____________________
Cyber cafés are also popular with foreign students studying abroad. These students feel it's
important to keep in touch with everyone at home and e-mail is cheaper than the telephone. Some students use the cyber café for as much as four hours a week and like the fact that the cafés are clean and friendly places.
(6)____________________
In the future it is likely that the cyber cafés will also attract people who are self-employed. With
mobile phones and e-mail there's less need for traditional offices, and as more and more people in the UK choose to work for themselves the cyber cafés could become communication centres for these workers by providing the electronic support for people who neither have nor want traditional office space.

When Oliver Graham-Jones first arrived at London Zoo in 1951, he came across a number of difficulties. The zoo had changed little since it was built in 1823 and the keepers who looked after the animals were used to organising things their own way.
(7)________
However, a new law changed all that in 1948 and only qualified vets were allowed to treat animals. The keepers, used to being in charge, disliked having a clever young boss with new ideas.
(8)________
He made such a fuss in the first year that many of the keepers refused to speak to him. He quarrelled with almost everybody and after a year the zoo management decided that his job would remain on a temporary contract.

(9)_________
On one occasion when Mr. Graham-Jones ordered that the heating in the animal houses should be switched off, the keepers went on strike.
(10)__________
Despite all the arguing, the young vet was responsible for some major new improvements and most importantly for setting up the zoo's animal hospital.
(11)_________
Today Mr Graham-Jones, now in his eighties, is against animals being in cages. 'In an ideal world, there wouldn't be places like London Zoo. We would have only safari parks as these are the best places to keep animals.'
(12)_________
'However, to be fair to London Zoo, the management has done the best possible and opened up the animals areas as much as they can. But people nowadays have cars.' The situation is clearly different from 1948.
(13)_________
Things have certainly changed. When Mr. Graham-Jones Choose first joined the zoo he actually lived in the zoo grounds.
(14)__________

Later on he moved to live off site and eventually in 1966 he left the zoo altogether and became a college lecturer.
A 'The lion and monkey houses were shut up at 4pm when the keepers went home, leaving all the heating turned on. This resulted in the overnight temperatures being too high and, not surprisingly, a number of animals became ill.'
B According to Mr. Graham-Jones, the moment you start to put cages around animals you've got a man-made artificial environment which doesn't suit animals.
C 'Nobody really wanted me,' said Mr. Graham-Jones. 'The zoo-keepers had their own ideas about nutrition, about what the animals should eat and these ideas had been handed down over the years from keeper to keeper. It took two years for me to settle in.'
D 'I didn't care if the job was temporary for 10 years; the zoo needed me and I was determined to improve the conditions for the animals.'
E He felt that he was at last in charge of a proper clinic where he could give the animals the quality of care he felt they deserved. The facilities included a fully equipped operating theatre in a clean and healthy environment.

F 'They don't need London Zoo - they can go to the country and visit safari parks, which are much better for animals. I'm not anti-zoo, all I'm saying is that places like this have served their purpose. Modern zoo-keeping is rather different.'
G They only ever called in a vet - someone who specialised in treating sick animals - when it was absolutely necessary.
H The plan was a disaster. He ran out of money, decided that he didn't want to continue working as a vet and that he would re-train as a doctor.
I To enable him to look after the zoo's 800 animals he had a flat situated between the seals and the hippos! Although very convenient, the flat was decidedly noisy, especially in the early morning.

A Ballooning Challenge
For those people who go out in search of adventure, a long-distance flight in a hot-air balloon is a particularly exciting (15)_______. Indeed, a round-the-world balloon trip is widely regarded as the (16) _______ challenge. One well-known adventurer, David Hemplemann-Adams, would not agree, however. Recently, he became the first man to (17) _______ the North Pole in a hot-air balloon, a more significant (18)_______ in his eyes. Given that the distance and altitudes (19) _______ are comparatively modest, you might wonder why the trip from Canada to the Pole, should present such a challenge.
Part of the (20) _______ was that such a flight had not even been attempted for over a century. In those days, such expeditions were huge events, with a nation's pride (21)_______ on their success, and so resources were (22)_______ to them. Although he eventually managed to secure a substantial sponsorship (23) _______ from an insurance company, Hemplemann-Adams had the added challenge of having to (24)_______ sufficient funds for his trip.
Then, of course, he had to face major survival concerns, such as predicting the weather (25) _______ and coping with the dangerously low temperatures. But most challenging of all was the incredibly complex problem of navigation. As the earth's magnetic field gets stronger, only the most (26)_______ of satellite-linked navigation systems can (27)_______ that one has got to the Pole. Without them, the chances of getting anywhere near it are extremely (28)_______. Not to mention an even greater problem that (29)_______ on Hemplemann-Adams' mind: getting back!
