| The mysteries of the skies Three hundred and fifty years before the first men looked down on the amazinglybeautiful surface of the moon from close quarters, Galileo’s newly built telescope (31) __ enabled__ him to look at the edge of the hitherto mysterious sphere. He saw that the apparently (32) __ lifeless _ surface was not divinely smooth and round, but bumpy and imperfect. He realized that although the moon might appear (33) _ inactive_, resembling a still life painted by the hand of a cosmic (34) __artist_, it was a real world, perhaps not very different from our own. This amounted to a great (35) _ achievement _ hardly to be expected in his day and age, although nowadays his (36) __ conclusion _ may appear to some to be trivial and (37) _ insignificant _. Not long after Galileo lunar’s observations, the skies which had previously been so (38) __ elusive__ revealed more of their extraordinary mysteries. Casting around for further wonders, Galileo focused his lens on the (39) __striking__ planet of Jupiter. Nestling next to it, he saw four little points of light circling the distant planet. Our moon it appeared, perhaps (40)_ unfortunately_ in the eyes of those fearful of what the discovery might mean, was not alone! | 31. ABLE 32. LIVE 33. ACT 34. ART 35. ACHIEVE 36.CONCLUDE 37.

In recent years, there has been a remarkable increase into happiness. The researchers have come up a number of factors which contribute to a definition of happiness.
First of all, there is, in some people, a moderate genetic predisposition to be happy, in other words, happiness (51)________ in families. And happiness seems to correlate quite strongly with the main dimensions of personalities: extroverts are generally happier, neurotics are less so.
Second, people often report good social relations as a reason for their happiness. In particular, friends are a great (52)________ of joy, partly because of the agreeable things they do together, partly because of the way friends use positive non-verbal (53)________ such as caressing and touching, to affirm their friendship. Marriage and similar (54)________ relationships can also form the basis of lasting happiness.
Third, job satisfaction undoubtedly (55)________ overall satisfaction, and vice versa – perhaps this is why some people are happy in boring jobs: it (56)________ both ways. Job satisfaction is caused not only by the essential nature of the work, but (57)________ by social interactions with co-workers. Unemployment, on the contrary, can be a serious cause of unhappiness.
Fourth, leisure is important because it is more under individual (58)________ than most other causes of happiness. Activities (59)________ sport and music, and participation in voluntary work and social clubs of various kinds, can give great joy. This is partly because of the (60)________ themselves, but also because of the social support of other group members – it is very strong in the case of religious groups.

Have you ever thought about the names of the months? Why are “January” and “February” not called “Primo” or “Secondo”? Is it because the original names were created in ancient times? Or is it because the originators preferred odd words?
Take February, for example. Say it aloud a few minutes and you start to wonder. Most people don’t know who developed these names. However, a little research reveals that the names of the months came mostly from a combination of the names of Roman gods and goddesses, important festivals, and the original numbers of the months.
Julius Caesar and Pope Gregory XIII change the calendar to make it more exact. Caesar developed a new calendar of 364 and a quarter days, the time it takes the earth to orbit the sun from one spring season to the next. The Pope’s astronomers refined the calendar regarding leap years; they determined that there should be no leap year in years ending in 00- unless they were divisible by 400; the years 1700, 1800, 1900 and 2100 would not be considered leap years, while the years 1600 and 2000 would be.
