THE KING OF THE FOREST
One
day a tiger (33)_________ around in a forest. An unlucky fox was met and
caught by the tiger. For the fox, the
inescapable
destination was very clear — death. Despite the danger, the fox thought hard to
find a way out.
Promptly, the
fox declared to the tiger, 'How dare you (34)__________ me!'
On (35)__________ the words the
tiger was surprised and asked for the reason. The fox raised his voice a bit
(36)_________ and declared arrogantly: 'To tell you the truth, it's I who (37)____________ to the forest as the king of
all the

Seeing that the tiger
became (38)__________ , the fox
added: 'Let's have a test. Let's go through the forest. Follow
me
and you will see how the animals are (39)_________ of me.' The tiger agreed.
So the fox

were all terribly frightened and ran away. Then the fox said proudly: 'There is
no
doubt
that what I said is true, (41)__________ ?'
The tiger (42)__________ nothing to say but to acknowledge the result. So

WHAT IS THE HISTORY OF HOT AIR BALLOONS?
Using
generated heat to capture rising air inside an envelope of material, the hot
air balloon concept
(33)_________ scientists and
speculators for centuries. Hot air balloons were one of the first methods of
flight
(34)__________ by humans. Although their
documented history is generally only begins in the 18th century, some
evi
dence (35)_____ that the balloons have been in the minds of humans for thousands of years.
dence (35)_____ that the balloons have been in the minds of humans for thousands of years.
China
generally claims credit for being the first to make use of the technology.
Heated air is lighter than cold air, so
if there is a sufficient envelope to trap the air, the device it is attached to (36)_________ _. In the 3rd century, small un
manned versions of hot air balloons, called Kongming lanterns, were used as signalling devices during the constant mili
tary campaigns of the time. These lanterns later became traditional at some Chinese festivals.

manned versions of hot air balloons, called Kongming lanterns, were used as signalling devices during the constant mili
tary campaigns of the time. These lanterns later became traditional at some Chinese festivals.
The history of modern
ballooning begins in Portugal
in 1783, when a priest demonstrated for the Portuguese court his small, working balloon model. A few months
later, in September 1783, scientist Jean-Francois Pilatre de Rozier
(37)__________ the first large
scale balloon test, launching a most likely surprised sheep, duck and rooster
into flight
before the
balloon crashed to the ground. Also in that year, brothers named Joseph-Michel
and Jacques-Etienne Mont-golfier displayed the first manned flight in Paris.
(38)_________ quickly took off as
a competitive sport among fans, with attempts being made to set
distance
and height records. In 1785,
a manned balloon was flown across (39)___________ English Channel,
carrying
Jean Pierre
Blanchard and John Jefferies, one of the first American balloonists.
Jean-Francois Pilatre de Rozier would die later that
year in a similar attempt. On 7 January 1793, Blanchard also became the first
to operate hot air balloons in America.
As a military
tool, hot air balloons were used as spy vehicles during the French Revolution
at the Battle of Fleurus.
They also (40)__________ during the American Civil War of the 19th century. Since the invention
of winged aircraft,
balloons have fallen out of
military use, while retaining popularity as a hobbyist sport.
Following
the work of Blanchard, modern balloonists (41)___________ several new records. In 1932, a scientist
named
Auguste Piccard flew a hot air balloon to a height of over 52,000 ft (15.8 km) in the first
flight to reach the strato
sphere. Ben Abruzzo, Maxie Anderson, and Larry Newman became the first people (42)_________ the Atlantic Ocean
sphere. Ben Abruzzo, Maxie Anderson, and Larry Newman became the first people (42)_________ the Atlantic Ocean
by balloon in
l978.
