2nd passage

Bears spend much of their time looking for food and they are not choosy, gorging on insects, berries, nuts, small 1na1nn1als, hain sandwiches, and garbage with equal relish Despite this, the chief natural factor li1niting

a bear population is the food supply Dr Lynn Rogers has found that, contrary to popular belief, so-called garbage bears - those that visit town dmnps or campsites - do not lose their ability to forage successfully for wild foods but are simply supplementing their diets with easy pickings Jn fact, these enterprising bears grow faster, n1ature sooner, and reproduce earlier than those that depend only on wild foraging Rogers has also found that dump-fed bears are the strongest and largest in the population He and his crew once captured a male bear that weighed 611 pounds

But easy living for the bears carries a price; those that stalk garbage

dumps are easier targets for hunters and those that visit cainps 1nay terrify

-if not injure - visitors Some state wildlife agencies capture "nuisance'' bears that have bec01ne too chmnmy with people and cart them ofI to less

The food we eat see1ns to have profound effects, on our health Although science has made enormous steps in 1naking food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat Son1e research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses

rs; are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon People of different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume

That food is related to illness is not a new discovery In 1945,

oo; government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites ( comn1only

used to preserve color in meats) as well as other food additives caused cancer Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food~ and it

The actual word perfmne comes from the Latin per fitmus which means literally ·by smoke' This is because, many centuries ago, people

noticed that so1ne smoke rising from their fires s1nelled sweet and pungent

Until then, there was scent, of course, in flowers and even in trees, but it

could not be controlled in any way A flower that smelled sweet at dusk or

after the rain, for instance, no longer did so after dark It was only in

lighting their fires that men first noticed that s01ne woods gave off sweet

smells, and that by burning them they could have scent whenever they

wanted it

Women began to perfmne the1nselves very early on, and the Egyptians used scent very Havislldy Cleopatra went to 1neet Anthony in a

barge that was literally soaked with it! Perfmnes of the ti1ne would,

however, see1n very strange to us today because they were extre1nely spicy

The fi~st cheap scents were 1nade in Ron1an tin1es and even Nero's wife,

Poppaea, went into business and invented a scented face creain which

became a status sy1nb0I among rich w01nen at the time

The great breakthrough in perfmnery came when the scientist Avicenna, who lived from 980 to 1036, discovered that the aroma from

plants and flovvers could be preserved by distillation - and rose water was

born It came to Europe at the ti1ne of the Crusades, when the knights

brought perfmnes hon1e for their ladies to use In the Middle Ages and the

Refonnation, · people sprayed themselves with perfume as a substitute for

hygiene, as they used baths less and less (In 1292 there were still about 30

baths in Paris ·where people chose betvveen steam and warm water, but these

gradually went out of fashion.)

H was during the 18th century that Paris really began to reign as a centre of elegance, luxury and fashion The austerity of the French

Revolution was just a n_assnng phase, after which the Directoire, and then

the Consulate and the Empire, rediscovered the art of perfumery and

In the first fonn, known as pri1nary cooperation, group and individual f1U1§e The group contains nearly all of each individual's life The rewards of the group's work are shared with each 1nember There is an interlocking identity of individual, group, and task performed Means and goals become one, for cooperation itself is valued

While pri1nary cooperation is most often characteristic of preliterate societies, secondary cooperation is most often characteristic of many modern societies In secondary cooperation, individuals devote only part of their lives to the group Cooperation itself is not a value Most 1nembers of the group feel loyalty, but the welfare of the group is not the first consideration Metnbers perfonn tasks so that they can separately enjoy the fruits of their cooperation in the form of salary, prestige, or power Business offices and professional athletic teains are exainples of secondary cooperation

In the third type, called tertiary cooperation or accommodation, latent conflict underlies the shared work The attitudes of the cooperating parties are purely opportunistic; the organization is loose and fragile Acc01n1nodation involves com1non means to achieve antagonistic goals; it breaks down ,vhen the common means cease to aid each party in reaching its goals This is not, strictly speaking, cooperation at all, and hence the somewhat contradictory term antagonistic cooperation is someti1nes used for this relationship
