Engineer: Today you are 1_______ where clothing materials, such as manmade fibers, are made.
Pupil: For how long have manmade fibers been used for clothing?
Engineer: 2_______ have been used to make clothing for only a little over a century, but their use is quite widespread nowadays. Rayon, the first manmade fiber commercially produced in the United States, appeared in 1910. In 1939, nylon, the first chemically synthesized fiber, was first produced in this country on a commercial basis. Since that time, the number of manmade fibers has expanded to include more than twenty types.
Pupil: Why does your factory continue to produce rayon?
Engineer: Although the list of manmade clothing fiber is long, 3_______ remains one of the most popular of all time, and that is why we continue to produce it in such great quantities here.
Pupil: And what is rayon made of?
Engineer: Rayon is made of cellulose, a naturally occurring substance found in cotton and in certain vegetables, like celery, of all things. The cellulose in rayon has been recycle and treated to make it a usable fiber for clothing.
Pupil: 4_______, isn’t it?
Engineer: Yes, it is. One of the reasons rayon is so popular for clothing is that it is soft and comfortable to wear. Most rayon washes well, too, although it does shrink when it is washed in hot water.
Pupil: Is there any problem with rayon?
Engineer: The biggest problem with rayon is that it tends to fade in sunlight. It wouldn’t be a good idea to leave a red rayon dress to dry in a sunny window. If you did that for very long, you might come back to a pink dress. And now I’d like to show you our rayon production room.

Monica: Hi, Jim. 1_______?
Jim: Oh yes, there is lots. The grass is quite high and I really have to cut it. The weeding must be done in the two flower-beds over there. The round one and the big square one. And later on I want to cut down a tree.
Monica: I’m not particularly keen on 2_______ but I’d like to mow the lawn and help to cut down the tree.
Jim: Great, Robin can rake the grass together, and we can throw that onto 3_______.
Monica: Where is the lawn mower?
Jim: It’s in the garage. 4_______. And you can plug it in right below the lamp-switch, there is a socket there. Well, it’s very kind of you to help me.
Мonica: No problem.

Question: Now that the former United Nations Oil-for-Food programme has been turned over to the Ministry of Trade (MoT), how does that affect your ministry and food production?
Answer: The public distribution system (PDS) [in which most Iraqi families receive enough free food to feed a family of four once a month] has not changed. Whoever is importing the goods, it’s still the same. When it comes to trade, they should think more about the farmers. The MoT should count what we produce instead of 1_______, for example, and then refusing our wheat. They put very strict restrictions on our crops.
Question: How important is agriculture to the Iraqi economy?
Answer: 2_______ is the main sector to provide jobs to young people instead of leaving them in the hands of terrorists. It creates jobs and 3_______. We used to produce 60 percent of our needs in wheat, except in 2003 because farmers weren’t sure if they should grow wheat when they felt war was coming. The farmers weren’t sure if they would make a profit. This year, we are ready for the winter season in wheat and barley, so we should have a good harvest.
Question: So if Iraq grows so much of its own food, is the PDS still needed?
Answer: We have had many discussions about this. It is important to keep the PDS going for poor families. If you do something different, it will make the situation unstable, so we have to make changes slowly. We talked about giving money instead of food, or making it be just for the poor. For the farmers, it would be good to end the PDS. Production would go up, especially with milk. For example, now 4_______ are losing money because the price of milk is cheaper than the price of mineral water on the market. There is no subsidy for milk and we are importing powdered milk. We used to have 14 daily cattle stations, now we have only four. The rest were sold in 1997, so this shows how the PDS affects all production.

Almost all Britain’s wheat crop is «winter wheat» which is sown in the autumn. Because of the dampness of the climate it is of the type known as «soft wheat», in contrast to the «hard wheat» produced in other countries, as the USA or Canada. Since bread made only from soft wheat is of lower quality and slightly grey in colour it is customary to use flour of which about 70 per cent has been made from «hard» imported wheat. Soft wheat, however, is excellent for making biscuits. About one-third of the wheat crop is normally used for flour milling, and about one-third for animal feed.

Barley grows best under the same conditions as wheat. It is much more adaptable as far as soil, temperature and rainfall are concerned, and requires a shorter ripening period. That is why areas devoted to barley and wheat roughly coincide, but barley is also grown in cooler, more northerly districts of eastern Scotland and in moister regions in Ireland.
Barley is used principally for fodder (40 per cent). But a certain kind of barley is particularly suitable for the production of beer and whisky (15 per cent).
