The Growing List of Wonders of the WorldThe ancient Greeks
listed the Seven Wonders of the World. In 1994, UNESCOs World
Cultural and Natural heritage List had 411 monuments and sites, and
136 countries committed to protecting them and the list continues
to grow.Deciding which monuments and sites are to go on the list is
the task of a committee of 21 specialists. They are elected for a
six-year period and are responsible for examining and evaluating
proposals from different countries. They also administer the World
Heritage Fund and decide what financial and technical assistance to
give to countries for conservation projects.Of the Seven Wonders of
the Ancient World, only the pyramids remain today. Over centuries
countless treasures of earlier civilizations have disappeared,
destroyed by man or nature. Protecting our natural and cultural
heritage is a complex and never-ending task. Earthquakes, floods,
landslides, pollution, wars and looting are some of the dangers
that threaten this heritage. Tourism is also a source of potential
damage.

An Embarrassing ExperienceHave you ever been really embarrassed?
Well, I have. It was last week, I was at an expensive restaurant,
and I had just finished a delicious meal with a new client. While
my guest was in the foyer making an important phone call, I decided
to pay the bill. I reached into my pocket for my credit card, but
it wasnt there. Panicked, I took out my purse but it wasnt in there
either. I emptied my pockets onto the table, but I couldnt find my
credit card anywhere. I didnt know what to do.When my guest
returned, I was checking my purse to see if I had enough money to
pay the bill in cash. Unfortunately, I didnt even have enough for
the taxi home. So, I went to the foyer to call my boss. When he
heard my problem, he laughed and told me to wait for a driver to
bring me the company credit card.A little while later a driver
arrived at the restaurant and gave me the card. Thank you, sir.
Youve saved the day! I said gratefully as I went to pay the

Living Out LoudTimothy Stevens has lived most of his life in a
silent world. Until six months ago, he had never heard his mothers
voice, never listened to music and never heard the sound of birds
singing or the laughter of his playmates.Timothy was born deaf. His
mother, Sandra, knew that something was wrong with her baby son,
because he did not have the same reactions as other babies. If I
didnt look into Tims eyes, he didnt seem to know I was there, she
says.When he was eight months old, Sandra took Timothy to the
hospital and explained why she was worried. The doctors carried out
hearing tests and decided that Timothy must be a little
backward.However, Sandra knew that the problem was more serious
than that. Sandra insisted that the hospital should send Timothy to
a specialist for more tests. Unfortunately, it was a long time
before a specialist would see him. Finally, when he was almost two
years old, Timothy and his mother went to a childrens hospital in
Manchester where the staff had plenty of experience in dealing with
deaf children.

Living Out LoudTimothy Stevens has lived most of his life in a
silent world. Until six months ago, he had never heard his mothers
voice, never listened to music and never heard the sound of birds
singing or the laughter of his playmates.Timothy was born deaf. His
mother, Sandra, knew that something was wrong with her baby son,
because he did not have the same reactions as other babies. If I
didnt look into Tims eyes, he didnt seem to know I was there, she
says.When he was eight months old, Sandra took Timothy to the
hospital and explained why she was worried. The doctors carried out
hearing tests and decided that Timothy must be a little
backward.However, Sandra knew that the problem was more serious
than that. Sandra insisted that the hospital should send Timothy to
a specialist for more tests. Unfortunately, it was a long time
before a specialist would see him. Finally, when he was almost two
years old, Timothy and his mother went to a childrens hospital in
Manchester where the staff had plenty of experience in dealing with
deaf children.
