Read the following text to answer questions 15 to 18. Simply stated, computational linguistics is no more than the use of electronic digital computers in linguistic research. These machines are employed to scan texts and to produce, more rapidly and more reliably than is possible without their aid, such valuable tools for linguistic and stylistic research as word lists, frequency counts, and concordances. But more interesting and theoretically much more difficult than the compilation lists, is the use of computers for automatic grammatical analysis andtranslation. A considerable amount of progress was made in the area of machine translation in the United States, Great Britain, the Soviet Union, and France between the mid- 1950's and the mid-1969's, but much of the original impetus for this work has now disappeared, due in part to the realization that the problems involved are infinitely more complex than was at first envisaged. Thus, translation continues to remain as much anart as a science, ifnot more so.

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test used for measuring and recording brain waves. Special sensors called electrodes are attached to your head. They're hooked by wires to a computer. The computer records your brain's electrical activity on the screen. Or it may record the activity on paper as wavy lines. Changes from the normal pattern of electrical activity can show certain conditions, such as seizures.

Four major brain waves exist: alpha has a frequency that ranges from 8 to 14 cycles per second (cps) and is found in the occipital part of the brain. Beta covers 14 to 30 cps. Delta wave includes frequencies that are below 5 cps. Theta wave covers the range between 5 and 8 cps. Alpha waves are more active during relaxation and light sleep. Nonetheless, their function is altered by deep mental activities. Beta waves, on the other hand, appear during mental concentrating periods.

Why It Is Done

An EEG may be done to:

· Check for epilepsy and see what type of seizures are occurring. EEG is the most useful and important test for checking if someone has epilepsy.

· Check for problems with loss of consciousness or dementia

· Help find out a person's chance of getting better after a change in consciousness.

· Find out if a person who is in a coma is brain-dead.

· Study sleep disorders, such as narcolepsy.

· Watch brain activity while a person is getting general anesthesia for brain surgery

· Help find out if a person has a physical problem or a mental health problem. Physical problems include problems in the brain, spinal cord, or nervous system.

For the first time, king-sized bed sales have outstripped double-bed sales in the UK. Double beds are normally four feet six inches wide, but families want the extra space provided by the five-foot king size bed. Buyers are taller and heavier than they used to be and need bigger beds. Leading retailer John Lewis sold 34% more king-size than double beds in 2010. Interior designers say that the bed is no longer just for sleeping as people watch television and use their laptops in bed. The bedroom is the new living room and beds are the new sofas!
