Sleepwalking The strange behavior of sleepwalkers have puzzled police, perplexed scientist and fascinated writers for centuries. There is an early (16) record of a somnambulist who wrote a novel in his sleep. The worlds (17) sleepwalker was supposed to have been an Indian, who walked 16 miles along a dangerous road. Sleepwalking is a (18) reality. What is certain about sleepwalking is that it is a symptom of (19), which is a usually the (20) result of guilt, nervousness, worry or some other emotional (21). One of the most common beliefs of sleepwalking is that it is dangerous or even (22) to waken the sleepwalkers. But this is one of the two mistaken beliefs. The other is that sleepwalkers are (23) to injury. Authorities on sleepwalking think that people will not do anything against their own moral (24). They also think sleepwalking itself is nothing to become alarmed about, but what may be very serious are the (25) that causes it. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. PART II PROOFREADING &.

EXAMPLE When ^ art museum wants a new exhibit, (1) an it (never/) buys things in finished form and hangs (2) never them on the wall. When a natural history museum wants an exhibition, it must often build it. (3)exhibit The German poet and polymath Johann Wolfgang von Goethe pondered the question of how organisms develop in his scientific studies of form and structure immature plants and animals, a field he found and named morphology. His search for a single basic body plan (26) across all life-forms led him to think about the prevalence of repeating (27) segments in body structures. The spinal columns of fish, reptiles, (28) birds and mammals, for instance, all are made of long strings of (29) repeated vertebrae. Among invertebrates the growth of virtually identical segments is how striking: in earthworms, for example, even (30) internal organs are repeated in serial segments. Likewise, the abdomen of flies and other insects are segmented, as are the (31) successive wormlike articulations in crabs, shrimps and other crustaceans. To Goethe the evidence suggested that nature takes a building-block approach to generate life, repeating a basic element (32) again and again to arrive at a complicated organism. The only glaring (33) hole he could see in the theory was the apparent lack of sort of (34) segmentation in the vertebrate heads. In 1790 he hypothesized that (35) spinal vertebrate is modified during the development to form the skull. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35.
