Disabled sailor crosses Channel On August 23rd 2005,a British woman who can only move her head,eyes and mouth, sailed across the English Channel and into the record books.Completing her journey in just over six hours,Hilary Lister set a record for the world's longest solo sail by a disabled person.Using only her breathing to navigate her boat,she reached Calais to a hero's welcome.Having arrived in France,Mrs Lister said,'I'm just thrilled',and attributed her success to the people who'd helped her.When she made her crossing,she'd been paralysed for four years.And she'd been sailing for only two.Having lived an active life before her illness,she took up sailing to boost her confidence. Lightning never strikes twice? Roy Sullivan,a forest ranger from Virginia,was struck by lightning seven times in his thirty-six-year career.The first strike was in 1942.He wasn't hit again until twenty-seven years later,driving his truck.The following year,another bolt of lightning burnt his shoulder,while his hair caught fire in a fourth strike in 1972.A year later,Sullivan was driving around the park when a bolt came out of a small cloud,knocking off his shoe.'I actually saw the lightning coming straight for me,'he said.Lightning struck for the sixth time in 1976.But it was the final strike in 1977,while he was fishing,that put him in the Guinness Book of World Records.Two of his Ranger hats,burnt by lightning,are now in Guinness Exhibit Halls-proof that lightning does strike in the same place twice. Child prodigy Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart showed musical gifts at a very early age,and was already composing his first works when he was four.Born in Salzburg in 1756,he was one of the greatest musical geniuses in history.By the age of six,he'd played before the Austrian empress and had begun to write his earliest symphonies.A year later,he was playing to audiences in London and Paris,astonishing them with his brilliance.He worked all over Europe during the next seventeen years,finally settling in Vienna.He lived just a little over half of Beethoven's life span but was amazingly prolific.He died in 1791,aged only thirty- five,having composed over 600 works,including great operas like The Magic Flute.Just before his death,he'd been composing the Requiem,one of his most famous works. 21.Hilary Lister was the first disabled woman to sail from England to France. 22.Hilary Lister had never done any sailing until two years before the crossing. 23.Lightning struck Roy Sullivan for the third time in 1970. 1379

Sample Do Internet chatrooms serve a useful purpose?Millions of people around the world would probably argue that they do.After all,they spend much of their free time visiting them.However,that doesn't mean they are right. There are many benefits of chatrooms.The most obvious is the ability to 'meet'people from anywhere in the world and to share information.With webcams and faster Internet speeds,chatters can even be seen by each other and even people from the most isolated village can find out what the cool teenager in Madrid is wearing.Moreover,specialist sites enable people to find out information about their hobbies and interests from all over the globe. In spite of these obvious benefits,there are problems,not least of which is wasting time when you could be studying or getting some much needed fresh air.There are also real dangers that the people being chatted to are not actually who they say they are.Because of this,Microsoft closed all unsupervised chatrooms in 2003. Their spokesman,Matt Wittingham said:We have been concerned about chatrooms for a while'.However,these problems have largely been overcome by having strict moderators and teaching children how to avoid danger. All in all,although it is important to take care when using chatrooms,the benefits far outweigh the dangers.In my opinion,it is more dangerous for children to play outside unsupervised and far more of a waste of time to sit mindlessly in front of the television. 1384
