READING Read the text again. Are the sentences True or False? One of the best crime dramas on TV at the moment is the American series Bones. The programme puts a completely new perspective on criminal investigation as each episode is about the mystery behind some human remains. These are found by FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth and taken to forensic anthropologist Dr Temperance 'Bones' Brennan and her team for analysis. Despite the serious subject matter, the show contains an element of light-hearted comedy. Much of the humour revolves around the central character Dr Brennan, who is cold and unemotional, with no social skills, and her relationship with Agent Booth, who is much more friendly and outgoing. Dr Brennan uses the phrase 'I don't know what that means' every time someone talks about pop culture, while Booth often has to translate her scientific language into words that ordinary people can understand. Predictably, Booth and Dr Brennan do, eventually, become a couple. Although the show has been criticised for making forensic science seem simple, it has been very popular with TV audiences all over the world. This is mainly because of the dual storyline about the solving of a crime and the relationship between the main characters. The show's success is reflected in the length of time it has been running. Seven seasons have been filmed since the series began, and if the writers are able to continue producing such a gripping storyline, it will continue to be popular.1The writer says that the series is original.2FBI Special Agent Booth is known as 'Bones' by his friends.3The two main characters have very similar personalities.4Dr Brennan knows very little about pop music and TV.5Some people say that forensic science is more complicated than it seems in the series.6The writer says that the show's future depends on the relationship between the main actors.

Read the text. Answer the questions. Although most of the time capsules in the world today are buried underground, some of them have also been 'buried' in space. Two of the most famous are known as the Voyager Golden Records. These were records which were sent up into space inside spacecrafts Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 in 1977. They contain messages to any intelligent life in space that might find them. The two records contain sounds and images which show the many different aspects of life and culture on Earth. There are greetings from people speaking in 55 different languages and also recordings of a variety of natural sounds, such as those made by the sea, the wind and thunder during a storm. They even added animal sounds, like the songs of birds and whales. And finally, there are musical selections from different cultures and periods in history. The images on the records are both in black and white and colour. The first images are of scientific interest. They show the solar system and its planets, as well as images of animals, insects, plants, DNA, human anatomy and reproduction. The images of humans show food, architecture and people in portraits, with examples of them doing typical daily activities. As the spacecraft are extremely small and space is incredibly large, the probability of the records being discovered is very small. Even if they are ever found by aliens, it is likely to be far into the future. Voyager 1 will travel through space for about another 40,000 years before it reaches the nearest star. 1Where are the Voyager Golden Records? 2What kinds of noise are included on the records? 3What kinds of picture are included on the records? 4How likely is it that the records will be found? 5What will happen to Voyager 1 about 40,000 years from now?
