In the year 221 BC, the first great emperor of China united the nation. He called himself 
Qin Shi Huang. He was a tireless ruler, but he trusted no one. Qin created a new capital city for 
China. Qin made thousands of his 
citizens work on his special projects. His most famous project 
is still visible today. He began to build the 5500-mile-long Great Wall of China. He even ordered 
the destruction of most of the books in the kingdom. Many scholars buried their books to save 
them. However, if the king’s servants found the buried or hidden books, the owners were killed. 
One of the emperor’s most secret projects was discovered in modern China. In 1974, a farmer 
accidentally fell into an underground tomb where he found an entire army standing in order. The

Avicenna was born in 980 and died sometime in June 1037. He was one o f the outstanding 
philosophers and thinkers o f the Islamic Golden Age, and a leader in understanding early medicine. 
By age 14 he had mastered many subjects and had already memorized the Quran. From the age 
o f 14 to 18 he taught himself because he could not find a tutor to provide more information than 
he already knew. He began to practice and learn about medicine at 16. He was good at all o f the 
subjects but he had a talent for medicine. Sometime before he turned 18 years old, he cured a 
Samanid chief. Because o f what he did he was allowed into the libraries that were taken care o f by 
the Samanid dynasty princes. Avicenna wrote almost 450 treatises, on a wide range o f subjects. Of 
these, around 240 works were on medicine. He wrote a book called The Canon o f Medicine. This 
was used as medical book for over 600 years. His major work in philosophy was a book called The 
Book o f Healing. It included his interpretation o f the work o f Aristotle.

If you ’re younger, you may use MySpace. Young adults are more likely to be found on Facebook 
and busy professionals may prefer something like Linkedln. But at least two o f these sites have 
one thing in com m on: apart from being social spaces where you can meet and chat to people, 
share photos and other things, they’ve added new verbs and nouns to the language in the past 
couple o f years. L et’s take a look at some examples. You can facebook your holiday photos 
(upload them to your Facebook page), facebook someone to see who they are (look him up in 
Facebook), facebook someone about a party (contact someone through their Facebook page) and 
ask permission to facebook someone (add them as a Facebook friend). As you can see, “ facebook” 
is a pretty flexible word, and you could say the same about “ M ySpace”, which you will find 
being used in much the same way all over the Net. Linkedln has not been used in the same way. 
W hile you ’re “ facebooking” or “ m yspacing” you may also find yourself “ commenting” (writing a 
comment on som eone’s Facebook or M ySpace page).
