From the largest female bookstore in Europe to the first detective novel store in Europe, from independent bookstores to large chain ones, (41)_, it is a scenic spot worth visiting over and over again. The 84Charing Cross Street, (42)_as the Love Bible, tells the story of the New York woman writer Helene Hanff and the London bookseller Frank Percy Doel. It has been (43)_ into dozens of languages.

Everyone knows objects get dropped on work sites - theres nothing radical about that. In Australia, mining has the third. highest fatality rate of any industry (4.4 fatalities per 100,000 workers in 2015), and in less well-documented areas like India the fatality rate is even higher. A lot of these fatalities come from, dropped. objects. Its worth trying to address this and work out just how big the risk is and where it comes from. At the end of the day, safety should be a priority in any industry and it should come as no surprise that addressing safety issues early can actually save money, long-term, for companies. It doesnt looked good for a mining company if people are getting injured and equipment damaged from falling objects. The risks from dropped objects come from all sorts of areas; its not just a matter of dropped tools. Were talking about sites characterized by a lot of, activities, where all sorts of things can come loose or fall, whether its light fittings or objects like rocks falling off transporting belts. The risks are largely personal but are also financial: if a piece of equipment gets damaged it will need replacing. Thats a pretty strong inspiration for companies to address these risks. In terms of frequency, here in Australia were looking at around 18% of compensation claims coming from workers being hit by moving objects, but those are just the claims the frequency is likely higher.Around 28%. of deaths and injuries come from such incidents, too. As I said earlier, thats just Australia; some industries dont keep statistics, but I wouldnt be surprised to find other countries report comparable rates. Thats a lot of accidents that could be prevented with adequate safety measures.Its important to take an active approach. Its a lot easier and cheaper to address these risks during the installation or maintenance phases by adding barriers to the inside of guard railings on walkways and transporting systems and adding nets to fixed devices. There are safety mechanisms available, but its up to the companies to install them. It is a lot more efficient to add barriers right from the start rather than waiting for an accident and then thinking, Should we be safer?, when they should have reduced these risks from the start.56. Why is drop prevention risk assessment important?A. People seldom knows the extent of risk.B. Many bosses consider their reputation.C. Many deaths are caused by falling objects.D. Companies need to save a lot of money.57. What sorts of risks from dropped objects are there in the mining industry?A. Light devices on the transporting belt.B. Personal injury and equipment damage.C. Safety issues and corporate development.D. Compensation claims and statistics.58. Which of the following statistical statements is true?A. The frequency is higher though some industries do not have statistics.B. Some 46 percent of deaths and injuries resulted from such incidents.C. Four out of ten people died in incidents like this every year.D. There have been more incidents in Australia than anywhere else.59. What is suggested by the author to reduce the risks?A. To find a security mechanism. B. To reduce the use of tools.C. To replace the damaged equipment. D. To install some security equipment.(B)The Museum of Science and IndustryThe Manchester Museum of Science and Industry will give us a more wonderful interpretation of the museum. The 2.8 hectare museum was rebuilt on the site of a huge Victorian warehouse and the worlds oldest passenger train station. The number and type of collections are. ranked first, and in the power exhibition hall, steam engines used. during the. Industrial Revolution can still be seen. The display of the railway here is rich and vivid in content./Understanding the history of the Industrial Revolution,the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry is a good choice.Power is the central theme of the museum, whether it is a bicycle or a steam engine, not to mention an old car. The history of mankind, as this museum shows, has been constantly running.All human inventions cant be separated from this idea. Life is also about exercise. All the exhibition the museum are alive. The workers oil and wipe every day. Finally, steam is imported into the machinery to make them run as usual as they did a hundred years ago. Time is also reversed. In the power exhibition hall, the steam engine that had been. used during the Industrial Revolution was still- roaring, and the influence was not reduced. If you want to understand the Industrial Revolution and the role of Manchester in it, you must come and visit it, and you will find answers fr
