A- The Franks and Muslims met in a great battle at the Horns of Hittin in Galilee on 4th July 1187 the
Crusader army was annihilated almost all of the great crusader lords were either killed or taken prisoner
the king of Jerusalem himself Guy de Lusignan was the chief captive lords included Reynald de Chatillon
the flower of the Crusading spirit was wiped out in a blow. Contrasting sharply with the barbarity of the
Crusaders, Saladin’s treatment of the prisoners was lenient and courteous with most being allowed to
purchase their freedom- with one single important exception Salahdin received the great captive lords and
barons in his tent on the field of Hittin after the battle.

He greeted them graciously with king Guy himself being seated next to Salahdin. Salahdin himself then
handed Guy a goblet of iced rose –water to refresh him after the battle Guy drank gladly from the cup
before handing it on to Reynald de Chatillon the other most important survivor of Hittin. Seeing this
Salahdin quickly said tell the king that he gave that man drink not I, for by the laws of Muslims hospitality
to give a man drink meant that he then enjoyed the protection of his host.

Salahdin then rose and personally chopped off Reynard's head king Guy trembled thinking his own turn
was next, but Salahdin calmly re-assured him that a king does not kill a king, but that he felt Reynard's
arrogance and treachery had gone too far. This battle enabled Salahdin to liberate Jerusalem shortly

F- Building work is under way on information superhighways for the modern age. In past decades to get
an economy moving, the answer was to get traffic moving. But we have entered the “Information age” and
the need is now not to move people and goods but data. The idea of high-speed communication networks
is not new but sending vocal and visual messages down cables was too slow.

The solution was to turn the analogue network into a digital one. Computing technology developed
much faster than governments and telecommunications suppliers thought possible. Now computer experts
are arguing for the construction of wholly new, fiber –optic based, broadband, interactive networks,
connected to essentially all homes and places of work.

This will mean that not only will telephone and television companies be competing in the same areas of
operation, but also there will be fierce competition between companies with different standardizations.
In addition, the message from the politicians is being received loud and clear: the information highway
will be built, paid for and funded by the private sector.

H-The aim of the survey was to investigate the attitudes of engineering employers to the question of
career breaks for women engineers. In addition, the survey also set out to identify best practice among
employers who had had experience of situation and to identify any particular problems. One point that
appeared in many of the employers’ response to the specific questions on career breaks was the
willingness to carry out more than their statutory obligations.
For example, over 80% of the employers said that they would be prepared to hold a job open for longer
than the statutory maternity period. Almost all of the employers said they would give some sort training
and updating to career break returners. The generally feeling was that employers were keen to retain good
stuff and would take a flexible approach where possible. Some employers could not be a flexible as
others.
For instance 43% from employers could not consider career break as part time work because of the
teamwork nature of engineers’ work and the need to be there at the same time as everyone else in order to
liaise. Only very small minority hostile to the whole idea. In conclusion this generally positive response to
career breaks for women engineers indicates that the introduction of career break schemes may allow
highly skilled women to remain in the work force.
