Passage One
Americans eat breakfast and lunch quickly unless it is a social
business or family occasion.
The evening meal is usually longer and a time for family to gather together.
Rushing through daytime meals is part of the fast pace in America.
Another reason for rushing through daytime meals is that many people eat in restaurant
that are usually crowded with people waiting for a place so that
they too can be served and return to work at the proper time.
So each one hurries to make room for the next person.
As with busy people everywhere
there is a real difference with meals
that are eaten in a hurry and those that can be enjoyed slowly with friends.

Passage Two
In many countries today,laws protect wildlife.
In India the need for such protection was realized centuries ago.
About 300 B.C. an Indian writer described forests that were somewhat like national parks today.
The killing of game beasts was carefully supervise.
Some animals were fully protected.
Within the forest,nobody was allowed to cut timber
burn wood for charcoal,or trap animals for their furs.
Animals that became dangerous to human visitors were trapped or killed outside the park.
So that other animals would not become uneasy.
The need for wildlife protection is greater now than everbefore.
About a thousand species of animals are in danger of extinction
and the rate at which they are being destroyed has increased.
Within mammals,for instance
the rate of extinction is now about one species every year.
From A.D. 1 to 1800,the rate was about one species every fifty years.
Everywhere,men are trying to solve the problem of preserving wildlife
while caring for the woulds growing population.

such as man has never know.

and thousands of asteroids to be explored.

and area ten times as great as the continents of the earth.

They conquered their fears crossed the oceans,and built the New World.

they will be able to send messages back.
