Jeans are the most popular kind of clothing in the world. They are popular almost everywhere and with everybody. They are considered not just practical but very fashionable as well. But what do you know about the history of jeans? Who made the first jeans?
Levi Strauss, a young immigrant from Germany, arrived in San Francisco in 1850. California was in the middle of the Gold Rush. Thousands of men were coming to California to dig for gold. And Strauss came to sell canvas, a heavy fabric used for tents, to these gold miners. One day Strauss saw that the miners needed strong clothes for work. Strauss got an idea. He quickly took some of his canvas and made it into pants. These pants were what the miners needed. They were very strong and lasted a long time. The pants became very popular immediately.
Later Strauss wanted to make his pants even better, so he started making his pants from cotton cloth that was softer than canvas but just as strong. This fabric came from Nimes, a city in France, and was called ‘denim’ (from de Nimes). Denim was popular in the fifteenth century. Christopher Columbus used denim for the sails of his ships. Sailors in Genoa, Italy, wore denim pants. The word ‘jeans’ comes from the word ‘Genoa’. Mr. Strauss made the first jeans in the United States, but their name and their kind of cloth came from Italy and France.

LEARNING ENGLISH
It is not easy for adult students of English to improve their accents. Unlike children, who are flexible, adults often find it hard to change the way they speak. This is why even the top, or smartest adult students have difficulty with pronunciation. There are several things that an international student can do to improve his or her pronunciation.
One method is to sign up for a pronunciation class. Studying pronunciation can help students to understand the rules of English, but in order to practice speaking, students often need to be exposed to English outside the classroom as well. This is why many students say that studying in an English-speaking country greatly affects their English. Living with native speakers can help students to pick up new vocabulary as well as improve their accents. International students can also learn important cultural information. This can help to prevent misunderstandings that can occur when people from different cultures live together.
Living with someone from another culture can be difficult. International students are usually excited when they first show up at their new homes, but after a few months they may start to think about their home countries and get homesick. Students who are homesick get depressed quickly. They might cry a lot or want to be alone. This makes it difficult for them to make friends and learn English.
101. Adult students of English cannot improve their accents because they are slow to change.
102. Most younger students cannot change their pronunciation.
103. All that they need to improve their pronunciation is to practice more outside the classroom.
104. To avoid misunderstandings about cultures, students should Jive with native speakers.
105. On their arrival, most international students may forget about the problems because they are very excited.
IV. PREPOSITIONS AND PHRASAL VERBS.
Supply each space with a suitable preposition to complete each sentence.
106. In the theatre we had seats _______ the front row.
107. She was astonished _______the way he behaved.
108. I was furious _______you for not telling me the news.
109. Were you absent _______the lecture yesterday?
110. Sue was asking _______you. I told her you were fine.
111. We were talking _______Peter but we broke off when he came in.
