1 Last week, we visited a large factory where they make window glass Special rollers took hold of the sheet at either side and carried it upwards Here some men lowered a metal frame into the liquid They then fed the mixture into a big hot oven Our guide told us that at this stage it was necessary for the glass to cool: slowly as this would make it very strong At a height of 30 feet, the sheet of the glass became cool and another machine cut it into big pieces which workmen stored away together Then they added some broken glass to the mixture as this helps it to melt. We first saw workmen mixing sands and other materials together in the right amounts At the far end of the oven, a stream of liquid glass came out As the frame came up, it pulled away a hot sheet of glass 11 Finally the glass was ready for use e。。。。●。。000000。。。0000●e。。。。。。000000。0。。。00000000。。。。。。。。 Key

Procedures to DIY ( Do It Yourself) a computer To DIY a computer successfully, you should, first ofall, decide on the functions you need, i.e. what you intend to do with your computer. There is a big difference between a computer to play games and a computer for word processing. You should also read some latest computer Journals to learn about the features of various parts before you go out to buy these parts. And you should go to at least three computer stores to get the best prices. Once you have all the parts on your table, you'd better have someone with experience to guide you in putting them ● together. Of course you can also teach yourself with a DIY book. When all the parts are in place, do a final checkup before you turn on the power. The joy is beyond words when you see your computer start working
