Paralysed man walks again

A paralysed man ¹______ to walk again, thanks to a new technique developed by British scientists. Bulgarian Darek Fidyka, who ²______ be a fireman, was injured during a knife attack. He was left with no feeling or movement from the waist down, and he ³______ that he would ever walk again. But then he had surgery to repair his spinal cord, which his attacker's knife ⁴______ through completely. A top Polish surgeon, Dr Tabakow, performed ⁵______ operation, which involved using cells from inside the patient's nose to reconnect his spinal cord. As a result, Darek is now back on his feet. with the help of a frame, and is delighted that he ⁶______ the treatment. The scientists who developed the technique are ⁷______ that more patients will benefit from the treatment soon. Over the next three to five years, the medical team ⁸______ three more patients if there is enough money. Meanwhile, they ⁹______ the new technique with other researchers to create an international team. They hope that in the near future, the team ¹⁰______ a cure for paralysis to help the millions of people in the world who suffer from this condition.

ROBOTS IN THE KITCHEN

When it comes to cooking, current trends show that people are spending ¹_______ time in the kitchen than ever before. Even those who know how to prepare a meal have moments when they wish they ²_______ to make the dinner. Of course, if these people ³_______ a robot at home that could cook, they wouldn't have to do it themselves. However, that is easier said than done. It ⁴_______ a long time to programme a robot to cook, basically because there are so ⁵_______ different decisions involved. The biggest of these is ⁶_______ up your mind about what to cook in the first place! However, a team of American and Australian scientists has come up with a new idea for teaching a robot to cook: by showing it videos on YouTube. Now, not everyone is aware ⁷_______ the educational values of YouTube, but the site has thousands of videos that teach all sorts of things. One of ⁸_______ useful skills you can learn is cooking, and this is what caught the researchers' attention. After using data from 88 different YouTube videos, their robot was successful ⁹_______ identifying all of the objects and actions on the screen. Although the team is pleased ¹⁰_______ these results, they admit there is still a long way to go before the technique is perfected.

Bibliotherapy: a novel idea

We often think of novels as places in ¹______ to lose ourselves, but the truth is that reading can have a much more far-reaching effect. If you find ²______ in trouble, there's always a book to remind you that others have been there before. It's just a question of finding the right book. And that is where bibliotherapy comes in: the use of books to help people deal with their problems, whatever they ³______ be. The treatment has become more ⁴______ more common in recent years, and today it is practised ⁵______ psychologists - and librarians - all over the world. There is also scientific evidence in favour of the technique. Researchers at Sussex University in the UK have found that reading is a more effective way of relieving stress than listening to music, going for a walk or sitting down ⁶______ with a cup of tea. After just six minutes with a book - any book - the people in the study found their stress levels ⁷______ reduced by up to 68%. This suggests that the therapy could help people ⁸______ lives have become meaningless leading them to fall into depression. If they have the right book recommended to ⁹______, they may get over their illness quicker. Bibliotherapy can certainly ¹⁰______ no harm. At the very least, a patient will discover some great new titles to read.
