In Africa, Lake Malawi is the native home of the cichlid fish family, almost all of which are endemic to the area; that is, they are found nowhere else. In 1980, the Malawian nation established the world’s first freshwater, primarily underwater, national park there specifically to protect them. Only outside park limits are divers allowed to capture the fish. While rare cichlid species bring hundreds of dollars a pair, many others are more modestly priced.

From the Restoration in 1660 to the death of Queen Anne in 1714, the name of one man is paramount in the history of English architecture. His achievements as an architect stand out clearly from those of his contemporaries and rank with the great Continental names of the time: Le Vau in France and even Bernini in Italy. Sir Christopher Wren is not only a great architect, but it was apparent, in his lifetime, that his intellectual capacity was so far above average that he would have gained outstanding success in other fields also. A preliminary study of the architecture of this period at once reveals that the work and influence of Wren was pre-eminent in almost every sphere. This is shown in the royal works and public buildings, in cathedral and church constructions, in universities and schools. The only field not so covered is that of domestic architecture, and even here, we are told of the Wren style of house, although this is in fact misleading. Unlike that of most architects and artists, the reputation of Wren has, stood high for 300 years, affected only slightly by the changing phases of taste and fashion, while today, in an era of shifting standards of design of all kinds, his name ranks higher than ever before...

Henry Ford was a car builder. He was not the first to have the idea of the horseless coach. The Germans Daimler and Benz had invented it, but he was the first to use the assembly line for mass production. His Model T car was the first to be produced on the assembly line. The new system cut the time in which the car was put together from 14 hours to 1 hour and 33 minutes. Eventually the price of the car fell from 1,200 to $295. The car lacked certain luxuries; still it could be relied on and did not need much looking after. Soon Model T became a people’s car. After nineteen years, when Model T became obsolete and sales dropped sharply  for other car manufacturers copying Ford’s assembly line system were able to bring down the costs of much more attractive cars.  Ford developed the new Model A. It was, too, the most inexpensive car on the market. Today there are hardly any factories to be found where Ford’s assembly line system is not being utilised for mass production.

73-	Ford’s assembly line system ______.                 
	
	A)	was invented by the Germans, Daimler and
		Benz
