2. We bought this mobile phone because it had all modern functions.
3. We had our car serviced because there was a problem with the engine.
4. Karim’s electricity was cut off because he forgot to pay the bill.
5. We wore masks during the experiment because these chemicals gave off fumes that could be harmful.
6. Alchemists spent many years trying to turn metals into gold.
7. The gas escaped through the tube during the experiment because scientists weren’t so attentive.

ШшеЛа,
Chinese inventors created Pencil Pusher, which 
turns paper, 
destined
for recycling, into pencils. 
The machine looks like a three-hole punch crossed 
with an electric pencil sharpener.
Here’s how the pencil-making gadget works: You 
insert wastepaper into a feed slot. The machine 
draws the paper in, rolls and compresses it, and 
then inserts a piece of lead from a storage chamber 
located in the top of the device. A small amount of 
glue is added before ... 
voila ...
a pencil slides out 
from a hole on the side.
Translucent 
Concrete
developed by Hungarian 
architect is called LitraCon. It is based on a matrix 
of parallel optical glass 
fibers
that can transmit 
light and color from the outside...
The tiny device ‘Mini-Heart’ is formed in the 
shape of a 
c u ff
meant to be placed around a vein, 
where its rhythmic contractions help to drive 
blood flow while also preventing the vein from 
becoming distended. The cuffs can be made from 
cardiac muscle cells derived from the patient’s
own adult stem cells, this prevents a chance of 
rejection. Soon the research team hopes to conduct 
animal trials. The researchers attempt to grow the 
cuffs directly on the veins in the body.
d. A team from the University of Washington desig­
ned silicon, plastic card-sized device, prototype 
of microfluidic, for pancreatic cancer diagnosis 
that is able to analyze a whole 
tissue
biopsy for 
3D imaging. The device allows the tissue undergo 
the same series of processes as would occur in a 
pathology lab, but on a much larger scale.
e. The LightRail zipper, recently developed for 
Olympic teams, zips closed to create a waterproof, 
almost invisible 
seam.
It is bonded to the clothing using laser-cut fabric 
and an adhesive that is similar to seam tape, which 
reduces weight and 
bulkiness
and eliminates the 
need for stitching. The zipper also features a 
dock
for the zipper head, which allows it to close more 
tightly and eliminate gaps.
