letters onto stone  requires letters 
made up mostly of  straight  lines. 
This script was the ancestor of the 
‘Times New Roman’ font  we find on 
our computer screens today. Another 
feature familiar to computer users is 
‘ italics ’. Initially, characters written by 
hand resembled the carved letters, but 
gradually scholars began to change 
the form of their writing, slanting 
letters and connecting them. The 
credit  for inventing Roman script using 
capitals and small letters  goes  to Aldus 
Manutius of Venice, in 1495 AD. The old 
Roman capitals and Greek   letter forms  
were thus transformed into the twenty -
six alphabet letters that we know 
today, with both upper and lower - case  
letters in common use by the end of 
the sixteenth century.

Host  That is one of the problems with 
Internet dating, isn’t it? You have to 
trust  people, based on what they tell 
you.
MP  Exactly. And our administration 
received hundreds of calls about it and 
of course we took this man off the site. 
But guys like him prey on the growing  
popularity of Internet dating services . 
And it is growing. Last year alone we 
launched eleven such services helping 
people with particular preferences to 
find their perfect  match . There is the 
‘Green Singles’ and ‘ Salt  ’n’ Pepper’ for 
vegetarians and seniors respectively, 
and ‘Love Wheels’ for car lovers. It’s a 
great chance for those who still haven’t 
found their soulmate. But these sites 
can only work if the people are honest. 
And that we cannot guarantee ...
Host  But there are some happy  
endings as well, right?

3–4   Students’ own answers
that this is a useful  strategy  because 
knife crimes are often committed using 
knives that are easily obtained from 
the kitchen drawer .
So I’d now like to deal with some 
alternative solutions. One way  forward  
is for the government to educate 
people better through, say, workshops 
and school talks about the dangers of 
carrying knives, making it clear that 
knives make you less  safe rather than 
more safe, and could easily be turned 
against you. I also think there could 
be some merit  in arranging meetings 
between knife criminals and the knife 
attack victims. This way people are 
forced to face  up to the consequences 
of what they have done and I believe 
it could have a far deeper impact 
than imprisonment. Another effective 
measure could be to arrange for 
people who have been caught in the 
possession of knives to  visit prisons 
and meet up with young people who 
have been convicted of actually using 
knives on other people.
To conclude, then, I’d like to reiterate 
the point that I made earlier that knife 
crime can’t be eradicated by stiffer 
prison sentences.

and I’m a firm believer in the equality 
of students and teachers. Yet having 
children make binding decisions on 
important   matters  is like saying they’re 
mature and experienced enough to 
make such decisions. I’m afraid that is 
a bit of a far-fetched notion.
Speaker 3 There 
was this radio thing 
about Korczak recently and we listened 
to that – the guys from the school 
council  and I. So he had this idea 
about peer courts at school and we 
just couldn’t believe it. I mean there’s 
no school that wouldn’t  benefit  from a 
court like that. If students could judge  
one another and take responsibility 
into their own hands, then we could do 
something about things like bullying  
and theft  at school. I mean who knows 
better than the students who does 
what and which punishment would 
really work? And most of all – it would 
make teachers listen and respect 
our opinions  and feelings. I wish our 
school would allow us something like 
that.
Speaker 4  We were all  surprised  
at Korczak’s instruction to gather 
in the X-ray lab. The doctor arrived, 
bringing along a four-year-old from 
his orphanage. The X-ray  machine  
was switched on and we saw the 
boy’s heart beating wildly. He was so 
frightened by the strange people, the 
dark room and the machine. Speaking 
softly, Korczak told us: ‘Don’t ever 
forget  this sight. How wildly a child’s 
heart beats when he is frightened. 
It does even more so when the child 
reacts to an adult ’s  anger , not to 
mention the fear of punishment.’ Then, 
heading for the door with the boy’s 
hand in his, he added, ‘That is all for 
today!’ That lesson was imprinted on 
our minds forever.
