justice. Plot Scout Finch lives with her brother, Jem, and their widowed father, Atticus, in Alabama town of Maycomb. One summer, Jem and Scout become friends with a boy named Dill, who has come to live in their neighbourhood for the summer. Dill becomes fascinated by the spooky house on their street, the Radley Place. The house is owned by Mr. Nathan Radley, whose brother, Arthur (nicknamed Boo), has lived there for years without daring to go outside. Scot and Jem find gifts left for them in a knothole of a tree on the Radley property. The next winter, Jem and Scout find more presents in the tree, supposedly left by Boo. Nathan Radley eventually fills the knothole with cement. Atticus agrees despite Maycomb's racist white community, to defend a black man named Tom Robinson, who has been accused of raping a white woman. Because of Atticus's decision, Jem and Scout are ejected from other children, even when they celebrate Christmas

He's an old man who lives by the old nobility manners. He has his own view on everything. Also, he is a bit absentminded and that irritates mostly everyone he speaks to. His son, Freddie, also appears a lot in the text. Freddie is a go-getter and is not afraid of almost anything barring old Lord Emsworth himself. Lord Emsworth tries to get him to leave Blandings Castle whenever possible. Another one of the main characters is the gardener Angus McAllister. He is a grumpy Scot, who cares very much about his gardens. He is very moody and at one point has Lord Emsworth under his paw. 1) The custody of the pumpkin: Main theme in there is the Pumpkin contest, which Lord Emsworth very much wants to win. Also, Freddie, who usually is not in the castle, is there and is flirting with McAllister's niece from America, without Lord Emsworth knowing it. Lord Emsworth would probably not allow
I: Confound it! We've got a puncture. I must pull up. [I put on the brake and the car comes to a stop.] MARY: What's the matter, dear? We can't have got there already. I: No, we haven't; and what's more, we shan't get there for some time yet. We've got a puncture. One of the tyres is flat. Come on, Tom; open the tool-box and get out the jack; I'll start taking off the nuts that hold the wheel on. MARY: Be as quick as you can, dear. We don't want to miss the news-reel. I: Great Scot! Aren't you going to get out and help? MARY: No, thank you. We're all right where we are, aren't we, Susan? Besides, you've got Tom to help you. We should only be in the way. [Tom puts the jack under the front of the car turns the handle and the front of the car slowly rises.] TOM: Is it clear of the ground yet? I: Nearly. Give it one more turn. That'll do; just get the spare wheel from the back. I'll soon have this one off. [I undo the nuts with a tool and pull the wheel off
flower. In the top there is the star of the Commonwealth. Under it there is a shield with six parts each containing a representation of the badge of a state. From left the states are New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland and in the second row there are South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania. The anthem of Australia is called `Advance Australia Fair'. It was officially declared the national anthem on 19 April 1984. Peter Dodds McCormick, a Scot, composed `Advance Australia Fair' under the pen-name `Amicus' (amicus is the Latin word for friend). `God Save the Queen' was the anthem before it. It was first performed in Sydney on Saint Andrew's Day, 1878. Peter McCormick died in 1916 and `Advance Australia Fair' became free of copyright in 1966. Some of the original words of the song have been changed for the official version. On specifically Royal occasions, both `Advance Australia Fair' and `God Save the Queen' are played. The
*Kenneth MacAlpin and the unification of Scotland The unification of Scotland began when Kenneth MacAlpin became king of the Picts and the Scots. Prior to this unification, Scotland had been a country divided between the Scots and the Picts. Kenneth MacAlpin, defeated the Picts. MacAlpin was not immediately recogninzed as the King of Scots and Picts for some years. Before defeating the Picts, he defeated the Vikings, driving them from the land. Once the warfare had ended between Scot and Pict, MacAlpin turned his attention to reforming laws, repressing and punishing crime, as well as improvements in the administration of justice. MacAlpin is credited with a code of laws known as "Code MacAlpin". *Malcolm III Canmore and Queen Margaret Malcolm married Margaret, who was his second wife, the great-niece of Edward the Confessor. Margaret's impact was dramatic. She favoured the Roman Catholic church to the Celtic Church. To allow her to feel more at home,

Hispania) and the 15 British Isles. By the Christian era the Celtic peoples on the mainland were conquered by Rome and later gradually Romanized, that is they took on the language of the Romans (Latin), their culture and institutions. Their Celtic Latin developed into the three modern Romance languages – French, Spanish and Portuguese. All the Celtic tribal names disappeared. Belgian (Lat. Belgi), Briton, Eire ['eərə], Scot are rare exceptions. The only places where the Celtic languages and elements of their culture have survived are Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and Brittany in north-western France (in the last instance largely as a result of immigration from Britain during the Anglo-Saxon invasion and settlement of present-day England – from the 5 th to the 7th century AD; see Unit 4). 2. The Iberians on the European mainland were also assimilated, by the Celts or the Romans

commercial radio stations were sending to the Admiralty some messages in code that they had picked up and that these were accumulating on his desk. The Admiralty had no department to deal with enemy cryptograms, he said. Ewing was at once interested, and when he saw the messages that afternoon he recognized that they were probably German naval signals and that their solution could be of great value. He promptly undertook the task. Ewing was then 59, a short, thickset Scot with blue eyes beneath shaggy eyebrows, a quiet voice, and the manner of a benign physician. He had been knighted three years before for his contributions to science, which included pioneering studies of Japanese earthquakes, of magnetism, and of mechanical lagging effects in stressed materials (now known by a word he coined, "hysteresis"), and for his public services, notably his naval education directorship. He was to become president of
