On the evening of August 8th, 1915, forty-eight hours after

the attack against the Turks had begun, the Allies had

reached none of their main objectives. The Suvla plan,

which was a good plan theoretically, had failed because

the wrong commanders and soldiers had been employed.

At Anzac, on the other hand, the best officers and men

were employed on a plan that would not work. Both

attacks had been hindered from the start by the difficulties

of advancing through a strange country during the night

while the Turks were massing for an assault. So the Allies

were thrown back to their own trenches with heavy

casualties and nothing gained.

the two attacks, the Allies .

A) hadn't achieved anything but had lost soldiers

B) had to prepare better plans

In The Call of the Wild, Jack London tells the story of a

dog named Buck, which is kidnapped from the safety of

his California home and turned by the brutality of humans

into a sled dog in the Klondike, and finally into a leader of

the wolves. Powerfully written and deeply disturbing, the

book calls attention to the hidden forces in both human

beings and beasts that come to the surface in a

struggle for survival. London unconsciously shows his

sense of identification with the nature of the wolf, both as

a lone animal and, through strength and cunning, as theleader of the pack.

Our unconscious mind contains many millions of past

experiences that, so far as our conscious mind knows, are

lost forever. By means of several devices, we now know

how to bring back lost memories. One method is "free

association", used by psychiatrists. If a patient lets his

conscious mind wander at will, it can give him clues to

forgotten things which, if skilfully pursued by the doctor,will bring up whole networks of lost ideas and forgotten

terrors. There are certain drugs which also help in this

process; hypnotism, too, can be of tremendous value in

exploring a patient's unconscious.

astronomy is a hobby that you can pursue in your

ones and preferably in a location away from city

light. (IV) There are often programmes broadcast in

the early hours which give a step by step guide to

how to watch the heavens. (V) But even if you live in

a city, stronger telescopes which blot this out are not

very expensive.

pay for the obligatory outfit. (V) However, local

authorities usually help to pay for a disadvantaged

child's school uniform.

simple fact that the climate does not encourage

people to be outside meeting others might be themain reason for this. (III) Unlike in Mediterranean

friends, and strangers, in open air cafes, British

people tend to socialise indoors and in smaller

numbers. (IV) But once a person has been invited, he

can be assured of the warmest welcome. (V) Such

groups might seem close-knit and hostile to

foreigners, particularly if they do not understand the
