In a trial courtroom, the judge is invariably seated behind an elevated desk or bench. Adjacent to the bench are the witness stand and a section that is slightly larger to accommodate the court reporter. Behind the court reporter, the bailiff stands against the wall of the courtroom throughout the proceedings. His job is to ensure the court procedure is observed and order is maintained.
Directly in front of the judge's bench, located in the central courtroom area known as 'the well', Is a table where the court clerk sits and records court proceedings. Only the bailiff is authorised to cross the well during a court session to transfer documents between the lawyers and the judge. Any unauthorised crossing of the well is regarded as being extremely disrespectful to the court and is usually expressly forbidden.
Off to one side of the clerk's desk Is located a table where the defendant and his lawyer are seated. The defendant, also known as 'the accused' works closely with his lawyer who is also termed the lawyer for the defence. Across the other side of the courtroom, the lawyer for the prosecution sits with the plaintiff, who is bringing the case against the defendant to court. Close by Is the jury box that covers the largest area in the courtroom. It holds 12 members of the public who are responsible for delivering the final verdict on the defendant.
All those who are actively involved in court proceedings are in the area of the courtroom termed 'the bar'. Behind the area of the bar is the gallery which seats spectators who may be relatives of those involved in the court hearing or merely curious members of the public.

You will hear an interview with Jon Whiting reviewing prison systems in America, past and present. First you will have time to look at questions 11-15. [Pause 30 seconds]
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11-15.
Presenter:
Today the prison system is in crisis. Disorder and violence are the norm in many prisons. With us today is Jon Whiting to talk about how history could teach us a few things about running prisons more effectively and at less cost to the taxpayer. So Jon, tell us a bit more about the lessons we could learn from the past.
Jon Whiting:
Well, today we see prisoners behaving aggressively towards prison guards, who themselves struggle to maintain discipline in prisons. We are giving prisoners too many rights. Maybe we need to adopt prison systems used in past times to maintain better control in prisons. For one thing, prison systems in the past could definitely teach us about how to better control prisoners with fewer guards. I know it sounds too good to be true and a bit of a contradiction in terms, but certain prison designs from the past have done exactly this.
In fact it was in the 18th century that the design for the first really effective prison was thought of. Even today the design is far superior to any modern prison building. The design was the idea of philosopher and social realist, Jeremy Bentham. Named the 'Panopticon' after the Greek 'pan' meaning 'all' and 'opticon' seeing, the design allowed a single guard to watch many prisoners at the same time. It was an amazingly clever invention.
Bentham's design had the form of a central guard tower around which the prison cells were grouped in a circular fashion, facing inwards towards the tower. Seen from a bird's-eye view, the design resembled a giant pie cut into segments, each triangular segment being an individual prison cell, with the watch tower at the centre.
What made this design so clever was the fact that only one guard was needed to watch all the prisoners. As a result, fewer guards were needed, reducing cost and manpower. It also had the effect of making prisoners behave better. This was because whilst the guard could in theory see all the prisoners at any one time, they could not see him due to the way the prison was designed, So, manpower could be reduced to almost zero at times, if the guard wanted to take a break, as his prisoners would never realise they weren't being watched!
Narrator: Before you hear the rest of the discussion you have some time to look at questions 16-20. [Pause 30 seconds]
Now listen and answer questions 16-20.
Although Bentham's idea was never put into practice in his lifetime, in later years a very similar design was patented by William H, Brown and Benjamin Haugh in 1881. One of these, the 'Squirrel Cage' in Pottawattamie County only closed in 1969. It was one of 3 prisons designed by Brown and Haugh. Each had the unusual feature of revolving prison cells that moved around a central tower, like a wheel revolving on its axis. Bearing an obvious similarity to Bentham's Panopticon, the cells within the wheel-like structure were all also triangular in shape.
Brown and Haugh's designs ensured that no personal contact between prisoners and jailers was necessary. However, they also allowed maximum security with minimum jailer attention, just like Bentham's original Panopticon design, in fact.
The main difference between the three prison designs was in their size. The Pottawattamie County jail was constructed on 3 floors, whilst the Crawfordsville jail in Indiana was a 2-storey prison and the Gallatin Missouri jail only a 1-storey prison. The Pottawattamie County jail also had some extra buildings outside the perimeter of the prison cells. These buildings included the kitchen, jailer's accommodation as well as cells for female prisoners and more trusted inmates. All buildings now are disused as jails, and they function as museums to those interested in history and the purely curious.
Any modern-day visitor can now see first-hand the signatures and dates of many of the prisons' infamous prisoners, which are carved into the prison walls. They can also marvel at the ingenuity of prison buildings that have never been equalled in practicality and design since they were first constructed over 100 years ago.
In complete contrast to the preceding prison designs is the contemporary architecture of Norway's Halden prison. This, for me, exemplifies what is wrong with prisons today. More reminiscent of a holiday camp than a place of incarceration. Halden's prison buildings are surrounded by attractively landscaped areas. The idea is to provide a relaxing environment but it seems that the architects forgot that prison is meant to punish prisoners, not provide them with recreational facilities! I believe that the lenience exhibited towards prisoners today and the privileges that they enjoy are contributing to the disorder that we now see in prisons. Architects need to look to past prison designs for inspiration, not holiday brochures for luxury hotels!

Part 3
You will hear a discussion between two students of criminology and their lecturer. First you have some time to look at questions 21-25. [Pause 30 seconds]
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21-25.
SI: That was a really fascinating lecture.
S2: If a bit gruesome!
L: Well, the Ratcliffe murders of 1811 certainly had a significant impact on English society at the time. It wasn't just the fact that innocent parties were involved or that two households were brutally murdered that provoked public outrage and hysteria. The murderer or murderers - since there may, as you know, have been an accomplice - invaded the sanctity of their victims' homes to commit truly horrendous crimes.
SI: An Englishman's home is his castle, right? So I guess no one felt truly safe in the comfort of their own home after that?
L: Exactly. That's also why burglaries, too have such a profound effect on their victims. It's often not the loss of valuables or pos; sessions or even the inconvenience that upsets a victim most, but the fact that their conviction of being safe in their own home lias been severely compromised.
SI: But public hysteria broke out too, didn't it, because there was a feeling that public safety was under threat. It was felt that the localised police forces at the time were inadequate.
L: Very true. The police force at the time had limited power. They could enforce the rulings of a local magistrate for the county but they had one huge disadvantage,
S2: There was no communication between county police forces, was there?
L: Yes. Details of crimes committed within a county were not shared. Obviously, when a criminal crossed county borders they could often successfully evade capture.
SI: Today that seems so absurd!
L: Nowadays, with information instantly accessible to all police forces nationally and worldwide on police computer systems, yes it does. But don't forget that it was only with the formation of London's Metropolitan Police Force in 1829 by Sir Robert Peel that criminal records could begin to be consolidated on a national basis. Even then, some areas outside and even within the Metropolitan Police District remained beyond the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Police Force.
S2: Were the Ratcliffe murders a bit of a wake-up call, then, to the crime-fighting forces of the time?
L: More than that, they acted as a catalyst In the formation of the Metropolitan Police. The public, too, played no small part in bringing about the much needed shake-up in the policing systems of the era.
SI: So the Metropolitan Force was founded over half a century before the infamous Jack the Ripper murders?
L: Yes, however, in spite of the Force's best efforts, the Ripper remained at large. Many suspects were put forward though, ranging from children's author Lewis Carroll through to artist Walter Sickert. Despite the notable failure to deliver justice on this occasion, the Metropolitan Police Force could not be blamed for any Inadequacies in police procedure. In fact the creation of the Metropolitan Police Force was a turning point in English law-keeping.
Narrator: Before you hear the rest of the discussion you have some time to look at questions 26-30. [Pause 30 seconds]
Now listen and answer questions 26-30.
SI: So once the public got what they wanted - an organised police force - were they happy?
L: One would Imagine that that would have been the case. However, the public in fact showed a resentment towards the new law enforcers.
S2: Really?
L: Yes, so much so that the public gave them derogatory names like 'Peelers' and 'Bobbies' - nicknames derived from the name of the Metropolitan Force's founder, Sir Robert Peel.
S2:1 guess not many people would have wanted to work for the Metropolitan Police then?
L: Well, at least It was full-time paid work. In fact, policing only first became a permanent full-time profession with the advent of Henry Fielding. He formed a force armed with pistols, known as the 'Bow Street Runners' in 1749, answerable to and paid by a magistrate's office. Prior to that, policing had relied on unpaid night watchmen and constables working for a particular parish. Male householders were chosen for the jobs of watchman or constable, working by rotation or appointment. Armed with no more than a cane, the watchmen were a poor match for the criminals of the day as were the constables who were similarly ill-equipped. Those appointed as watchmen or constables not surprisingly lacked enthusiasm for their task which had to be combined with their normal daytime employment.
SI: So, did the Metropolitan Police Force operate a tough selection process for employing officers?
L: There were the same conditions for a certain height and fitness level as In contemporary police forces. But when new recruits entered the Force they had to work their wav up from the bottom. No concessions were made for class or background. This still holds true today.

Part 4
You will hear a recording describing a trial courtroom and the conduct of legal trials. First you have some time to look at questions 31-40. [Pause 1 minute]
Now listen carefully and answer questions 31-40.
Although variations occur in courtroom layouts, this is a description of a standard UK trial courtroom.
In a trial courtroom, the judge is invariably seated behind an elevated desk or bench. Adjacent to the bench are the witness stand and a section that is slightly larger to accommodate the court reporter. Behind the court reporter, the bailiff stands against the wall of the courtroom throughout the proceedings. His job is to ensure the court procedure is observed and order is maintained.
Directly in front of the judge's bench, located in the central courtroom area known as 'the well', Is a table where the court clerk sits and records court proceedings. Only the bailiff is authorised to cross the well during a court session to transfer documents between the lawyers and the judge. Any unauthorised crossing of the well is regarded as being extremely disrespectful to the court and is usually expressly forbidden.
Off to one side of the clerk's desk Is located a table where the defendant and his lawyer are seated. The defendant, also known as 'the accused' works closely with his lawyer who is also termed the lawyer for the defence. Across the other side of the courtroom, the lawyer for the prosecution sits with the plaintiff, who is bringing the case against the defendant to court. Close by Is the jury box that covers the largest area in the courtroom. It holds 12 members of the public who are responsible for delivering the final verdict on the defendant.
All those who are actively involved In court proceedings are in the area of the courtroom termed 'the bar'. Behind the area of the bar is the gallery which seats spectators who may be relatives of those involved in the court hearing or merely curious members of the public. The bar itself may be an actual physical barrier, such as a railing or merely a designated area. Apart from the parties to the case and any witnesses, only the lawyers can literally pass the bar (court personnel and jury members usually enter through separate doors behind the bench) and this is why the term 'the bar' has come to refer to the legal profession as a whole.
So, that is the court set-up. Now onto how the verdict is arrived at and sentence proclaimed by the judge.
When all evidence has been given and challenged, by both the lawyer for the prosecution and the lawyer for the defence, then the process of reaching a verdict can begin.
Prior to the judge's summing up the case, it is normal court procedure for the judge to meet with both lawyers first. In the meeting, what the judge will say is determined by mutual consent between the lawyers and the judge. It is then up to the judge to decide if the summing up will be split into two parts. If this course of action is taken, the summing up will be divided into a legal part and a summary of the facts of the case. The legal part is basically a clarification of what the charge is and what has to be proven in addition to any special directives for the case, such as the need to respect confidentiality. The summary is given to ensure that all members of the jury are reminded of the essential facts of the case. It is an impartial summary of all the evidence heard during the trial by the jury.
After the summing up, the judge will stress the Importance of reaching a unanimous verdict. The jury will then retire to consider their decision. If the case is particularly complex, the judge will first issue the jury with a written document entitled a 'route to verdict'. This is essentially a series of questions the jury should pose themselves whilst considering the verdict.
The time taken for a jury to reach a verdict can vary from a few hours to several days. If there is a chance that the verdict will not be reached, before the end of the court day, then members of the jury are free to go home on the proviso that they will not discuss details of the case with anyone outside the courtroom. The more serious the case, the longer a jury may take to reach a decision, If the jury continues to struggle to reach a verdict, the judge will deliver a 'Watson Direction' which is also known as a 'give and take direction'. Essentially, this is a directive reminding the jury of their oath and to maintain unbiased views whilst discussing the verdict. Should the jury not be unanimous in their decision, then a majority verdict is permitted.
Once the verdict has been delivered, the sentencing of the accused is left entirely to- the judge. The jury is, however, permitted beforehand to influence the judge's sentencing in order to make it more lenient. Accordingly, a 'recommendation of mercy' is added to the jury verdict, Whether the judge takes this Into account is entirely up to them.

Across the globe, many people consider music as a mere amusement tool for individuals while other proponents contend that it plays a pivotal role in our society. However, I firmly assert that music has a significant even irreplaceable role in our daily lives since it has a medical soothing effect on our physical and mental health. However, there are some music that could be considered as only a noise, nothing else.
To begin with, many elderly generations tend to consider modern music as full of noise and anxiety since many latest music producers' masterpieces show fast rhythm and raps. Many adults believe that these types of music only can harm the young generation's mind but obtain nothing good from it. For example, the modern music industry releases much music with there are only a few words, not to mention the content of the text, full of sex exposure and seductive words. Our young generation could be led astray with these kinds of music.
By contrast, music could be extremely peaceful and soothing if it is made by real talented musicians, like, Mozart. According to the research conclusion about some of the classic music, Mozart’s masterpieces may trigger the alfa wave in the human brain and facilitate education and mental healthiness. Besides, some music are good additive for sports, like, elating emotions.
In conclusion, does music plays a great role in our lives depends on the essence of the music itself. I firmly believe that good music may provide us with positive feedback and encourage us to think positively and act efficiently.
It could be considered a band 7.0 sample, checked with Chat GPT and Grammarly.
The flowchart depicts the cheese-producing steps. Overall, there are involved a total of 8 steps in order to produce high-quality cheese. It begins with mixing raw milk with bacteria ending up with processed food delivery.
Firstly, it can be seen that the acidification process begins with mixing raw milk and bacteria in a container, facilitated by the addition of enzymes, resulting in the transformation of the liquid into solid curds. Subsequently, the obtained curds were meticulously sliced into small pieces poured into the pot, and heated the curds before they turned into a dried state. Next, the following step is to pour out the liquefied form of curds into a bowl or other container for adding salts.
In the subsequent stage, the liquid form of curds was cooled down and poured into shape making machine in order to mold them into specific cubic shapes. Moving forward, shaped curds were placed inside the shelf for a two-month fermentation process. Finally, collected fermented cheeses are packaged and then will be delivered to the retailer for sale.

Many people consider listening music as one of the best alternative to get relieved from stress and anxiety. Music plays a significant role on the society but some people treat music, just as a form of entertainment.
Firstly, music which reveals family relations and patriotism shows a significant impact on the society and the nation whereas music which completely acts as an antagonist (which affect human relations) may have negative impact on the children and the teen age groups across the world. Melody and romantical songs are always considered as better medicines to anyone who is suffering from depression and stress. Moreover, this type of songs surely relaxes us from various mental tensions and it also merely protects us from being attacked by mental problems but some individuals listen music while driving a motor bike on highways which may pose a dangerous threat to them.
On the other hand, music can also be treated as a simple way of entertainment to the public. Nowadays, some young ones are getting attracted to listening songs while driving a car or when performing physical exercises which shall improve their mood. Whereas, few people listen music to be happier and to improve their sleep quality whilst there are also few people who listen music when they feel bored only for entertainment purpose.
To conclude, in my opinion, music surely plays an important role on the society in both good and bad ways. I'd recommend every individual to consider music as a positive development only, such as to repair ones mood and also for the betterment of the society.
The given diagram illustrates the process of cheese making. This process involves various steps to follow in order to make good quality cheese.
Overall, the main source in cheese production is raw milk, which undergoes several steps after solidifying them to form cheese.
Firstly, raw milk is converted to curd by following a couple of steps such as acidification and adding tenzyme to milk. Then curd formed after this step is converted into solid curd cubes by following solidification process. Then, these cubes are cut into small pieces and are then heated and drained. Next, the liquid formed after heating small curd cubes is taken into a bowl.
Secondly, after heating and draining, salt is added to the liquid, which then undergoes shaping. After shaping, it goes through 2 months of fermentation process. As a result, after 2 months, cheese is formed which is then packed and supplied to various shops.
The diagram illustrates about the process involved in making cheese .
The pivotal point of the whole procedure is producing cheese mainly, these process consists of formation of curd, shaping the curd, fermentation and packaging.
The Raw milk which contains Bacteria in it is known as acidification, by adding tenzyme to this raw milk curd starts producing which is known as solidification then slice the curds into Bits subsequently heating and draining is done to remove the excess amount of water. After heating and draining add salt to the residue, after adding salt to the residue shaping machine provides the structure to the curds.
Fermentation is the most important process for making cheese. In the last stage of these process the structured curds is fermented for 2months where the cheese is formed after the period of 2 months of fermentation, the cheese will parcel to the shops.

The visual representation depicts the intricate manufacturing process of cheese, involving a series of nine significant stages. These stages encompass a variety of methods, such as acidification, solidification, shaping, fermentation, and more, ultimately culminating in the production of the final cheese product ready for sale.
The initial step in this process is "acidification," where raw milk is combined with bacteria in a container to produce enzymes. The subsequent stage involves "solidification," during which the enzymes are transformed into curds. These curds are then meticulously cut into smaller pieces and subsequently subjected to heating over a flame. The resultant mixture is then carefully drained using specialized cooking equipment. Following the solidification phase, salt is introduced to the curd pieces to enhance flavor and preservation.
In the subsequent stage, these seasoned pieces undergo a "shaping" process, where specialized instruments are employed to give the cheese its desired form. Finally, the cheese is subjected to a critical phase, "fermentation," lasting approximately two months. During this period, the cheese matures, developing its distinctive flavor and texture. Upon reaching maturity, the cheese is carefully and meticulously packaged, ensuring it is well-protected for distribution to various retail outlets.
In conclusion, the manufacturing of cheese is a meticulous and multistep process involving acidification, solidification, shaping, and fermentation, among other essential stages. Each stage contributes to the development of the unique characteristics of the final cheese product, which is then thoughtfully packaged and sent to market for consumers to enjoy.
Music is a form of art and expression particularly evolves the organizations of voice over time, it contains a variety of various meanings and roles for community and individual. Some people presume, it is just an entertainment of daily life whereas other ones assume, it holds a vital influence in society. These opinions are acceptable to argue that music has its exclusive determination by the position.
To begin with music has a role more than only entertaining is a form of expressions in that occasionally related to cultural, religious, and identifying significance exclusively. Another word, each Independence Day surely sings a special national song which contains a meaningful role to remember the hero services, patriotism, and nationalism. Consequently, what statement emphasizes it more than just music, they comprehend that comprehensively. In addition to, music additionally brings a certain identification in various culture by virtue of the recognizing voice organization has been able to introduce what it is from. All of these are identity that play essential role in society as well as it provides a wide range of importance of divergent.
On the other hand, music brings different meaning of its connoisseur since they become it part of alternative to bush mood of daily life. For instance, some people will feel easier to study if they play music firstly. As a consequence, it provides a positive effect into where the help of music has mood booster system. Besides, music is a set-off of voice phenomenon that can absorb the negative energy in body and mind especially those who are interested to disconnect from stress and abundance of life process. This presumption definitely generates undoubted pleasure thing as much like other instruments TV or reading book.
Having two essences of view respectively makes music establishing its meaning differently towards citizens’ segmentation. The assumption it is part of fun activity and the opposite one regards more than entertaining having more paramount impact. In my opinion, both are dynamic of condition and situation as a result all individual reserve the right for their position.
