Monopoly is one of the biggest-selling games in the world It is sold in 80 countries and comes in 26 different languages But where did this classic board game come from, and why did it become so popular? At the
beginning of the 20th century, an instructional game called ‘The Landlord's Game’ was first published by a
political activist, Elizabeth Magie The purpose of the game was to teach people how rich, powerful individuals take advantage of the poor while they accumulate even more wealth Unfortunately, the game was not popular,
and she sold very few copies of it.
In 1934, a man called Charles Darrow redesigned it, creating a game of chance However, when he presented his game, which he called "Monopoly, " to the games manufacturers Parker Brothers, they rejected it They said it
was too complex and contained too many flaws.
Darrow persisted and decided to produce the game himself He created and sold over 5,000 handmade sets to a local department store The game had immense public appeal, and was so popular that Darrow went back to Parker Brothers, who bought the rights to the game.

Alaska is disappearing slowly, but surely It is estimated that since the 1950s, as much as fifteen percent of Alaska’s land area has disappeared How can a whole state be disappearing? The problem is that Alaska’s glaciers are melting The state has more than 100,000 glaciers These glaciers account for about 75,000 square kilometers, or five percent, of the state’s area That is an area of land larger than Ireland!
According to a recent report by the US Geological Survey, ninty-nine percent of Alaska’s glaciers are either
retreating or diminishing This diminishing seems mainly due to the increase in global temperatures Since the
Trang 71960s, the average year-round temperature has increased by almost 3°c Additionally, the average winter
temperature has increased by over 6°c Presently, an estimated 100 cubic kilometers of ice is disappearing from Alaskan glaciers every year It may be even more in the near future, as some scientists predict that the average world temperature could go up 4 to 7°c by the year 2100.
Another problem facing Alaska is its thawing permafrost Much of the land in Alaska used to be permanently frozen or frozen for most of the year Now, the thawing permafrost is causing a number of problems for people living in Alaska Roads and utility poles are collapsing as the ground around and under them warms and softens
Also, the hard permafrost that originally prevented beaches from eroding during violent storms is now melting
People who live along Alaska’s coasts are being forced to relocate For villages on small low islands, one terriblestorm could wipe out the entire community.
The melting permafrost and increasing temperatures are both affecting the forests of Alaska As the permafrost under the forests melts, insects that normally do not turn up until the warmer seasons are appearing sooner The spruce-bark beetle, for example, is increasing in numbers as a result of warmer winter temperatures It usually takes about two years for these beetles to grow and reproduce in very cold weather However, due to the increase
in temperatures, spruce-bark beetles are reproducing faster and damaging as many trees in one year as they
previously damaged in two If something cannot be done to changte things, Alaska’s forests will not survive the turn of the century.
Some scientists believe that human activity is linked to a global increase in weather temperature Whatever the cause of rising temperatures may be, the fact remains that temperatures are warming, affecting Alaska for the worse Horribly, this could be a preview of what will happen to the rest of the world in the next century.
