1.  It is — a an the interesting fact of — a an the modern life that perhaps for — a an the first time in — a an the history — a an the governments are taking — a an the problems of — a an the environment seriously.

2.   — a an the latest news is that — a an the jojoba shrub, which grows wild in — a an the Mexico and parts of — a an the United States, could not only prove to be — a an the ideal substitute for — a an the sperm oil but could also be — a an the means of raising — a an the living standards of — a an the Indians who live in — a an the abject poverty on — a an the reservations.

3.  — a an the chemical analysis of — a an the jojoba oil has confirmed that it is very similar in — a an the composition to — a an the sperm oil and that — a an the wax derived from it has almost — a an the same properties as — a an the carnauba wax, at — a an the present imported from — a an the Brazil at $2 — a an the pound.

4.  Although — a an the industry has so far not committed itself to using — a an the jojoba oil in — a an the future, — a an the signs are that once it is available in — a an the commercial quantities, its use will soon become widespread.

5.  I'm fond of — a an the sailing. — a an the party of us took — a an the boat to — a an the Mediterranean — a an the last summer. That was — a an the wonderful experience. I've done some — a an the mountain climbing, too. I've been up — a an the Snowdon and — a an the few of — a an the mountains in — a an the Lake District. I've never been to — a an the Alps, or anything like that. I like — a an the theatre, too. I did — a an the bit of — a an the acting at — a an the school and I'm fond of — a an the opera, though I can't sing — a an the note in — a an the tune.
