For her thirteenth birthday on 12 June 1942, Anne Frank received a book she had shown her
father in a shop window a few days earlier. Although it was an autograph book, bound with
red-and-white checkered cloth and with a small lock on the front, Frank decided she would
use it as a diary, and began writing in it almost immediately. While many of her early entries
relate the mundane aspects of her life, she also discussed some of the changes that had
taken place in the Netherlands since the German occupation. In her entry dated 20 June
1942, she listed many of the restrictions that had been placed upon the lives of the Dutch
Jewish population, and also notes her sorrow at the death of her grandmother earlier in the
year. Frank dreamed about becoming an actress. She loved watching movies, but the Dutch
Jews were forbidden access to movie theaters from 8 January 1941 onwards.

Inventions Make Life Easier

Activity 4

Monologue 1

A dishwasher is a mechanical device for cleaning dishes and eating-utensils. Dishwashers

can be found in restaurants and private homes. Unlike manual dishwashing, which relies
largely on physical scrubbing to remove soiling, the mechanical dishwasher cleans by
spraying hot water, typically between 55 and 75 °C at the dishes. A mix of water
and detergent is circulated by a pump. Once the wash is finished, the water is drained, more
hot water is pumped in and a rinse cycle begins. After the rinse cycle finishes and the water
is drained, a heating element in the bottom of the tub heats the air to dry the dishes.

Monologue 2

An overhead projector is used to display images to an audience. An overhead projector

typically consists of a large box containing a very bright lamp and a fan to cool it. On top of
the box is a large Fresnel lens that collimates the light. Above the box, typically on a long
arm, is a mirror and lens that focuses and redirects the light forward instead of up.
Transparencies are placed on top of the lens for display. The light from the lamp travels
through the transparency and into the mirror where it shines forward onto a screen for
display.

Monologue 3

Digicam encodes digital images and videos digitally and stores them for later reproduction.
Most cameras sold today are digital,and digicams are incorporated into many devices
ranging from PDAs and mobile phones to vehicles. Digicams share an optical system,
typically using a lens with a variable diaphragm to focus light onto an image pickup device.
Digicams can display images on a screen immediately after being recorded, and store and
delete images from memory. Many digicams can also record moving video with sound.

Monologue 4
Woman: yellow

A telegraph is a machine that is used for transmitting messages in the form of electrical
impulses, which can be converted into data. A message sent this way is called a telegram or
cablegram, while someone who operates a machine is known as a telegrapher. Telegraphy
was a major mode of communication from the middle of the 1800s until the 1900s, before
ultimately being supplanted by inventions like the telephone and the Internet.

Activity 5

Listen to the monologue. Circle the words you hear in each monologue.

Monologue 1

Coffeemakers or coffee machines are cooking appliances used to brew coffee. In the most
common devices, coffee grounds are placed in a paper or metal filter inside a funnel, which
is set over a glass or ceramic coffee pot, a cooking pot in the kettle family. Cold water is
poured into a separate chamber, which is then heated up to the boiling point, and directed
into the funnel.

Monologue 2

A detergent is a mixture of surfactants with "cleaning properties in dilute solutions." These

substances are usually alkylbenzenesulfonates, a family of compounds that are similar
to soap but are more soluble in hard water, because the polar sulfonate (of detergents) is
less likely than the polar carboxyl to bind to calcium and other ions found in hard water.
Detergents are commonly available as powders or concentrated solutions.

Monologue 3

A can opener or tin opener is a device used to open tin cans or metal cans. The first can
openers were patented only in 1855 in England and in 1858 in the United States. The first
can opener consisting of the sharp rotating cutting wheel, which travels around the can's
ring, slicing open the lid. Electric can openers were introduced in the late 1950s and met
with success.

A vacuum cleaner is a device that uses an air pump to create a

partial vacuum to suck up dust and dirt, usually from floors, and optionally from other
surfaces as well. The dirt is collected by either a dust bag or a cyclone for later disposal. The
motorized vacuum cleaner was invented by Hubert Cecil Booth of England in 1901.

Monologue 2

Electrocardiography is a trans thoracic interpretation of the electrical activity of the heart over
a period of time, as detected by electrodes attached to the surface of the skin and recorded
by a device external to the body. The recording produced by this noninvasive procedure is
termed an electrocardiogram.

Monologue 3

A refrigerator is a common household appliance that consists of a thermally

insulated compartment and a heat pump that transfers heat from the inside of the fridge to
its external environment so that the inside of the fridge is cooled to a temperature below the
ambient temperature of the room. Refrigeration is an essential food storage technique in
developed countries.

Monologue 4

A fly-swatter or fly swatter usually consists of a small rectangular or round sheet of

lightweight, flexible, vented material, usually thin metallic, rubber, or plastic mesh, attached
to a lightweight wire or plastic handle. The venting or perforations reduce air resistance,
