The polar bears live at the North pole. There is only snow, ice, and water. There is not any land.
These bears are three meters long, and weight 450 kilos. They can stand up on their back legs because
they have very wide feed. They can use their front legs like arms. The Polar bears can swim very well. They
can swim 120 kilometres out into the water. They catch fish and sea animals for food. They go into the sea when
they are afraid.
People like to kill the polar bears for their beautiful white coats. The governments of Canada, the
united states and Russia say that no one can kill polar bears now. They do not want all of these beautiful animals
to die.
A device called a facsimile machine is used for transmitting and receiving images. Facsimile machines
resemble small photocopiers. However, they are equipped with a telephone or are connected to one. To send a
document, the user inserts it into the machine and dials the telephone number of the receiving fax machine. After
the connection is made, an electronic scanner on the transmitting machine moves across the page and converts
the image into a set of electric signals. These signals travel over the telephone line to the receiving fax machine.
Then machine converts the electric signals back into an image of the original document and then prints a copy.
Some business people use small desktop fax machines or portable models at home or when they travel. A
personal computer can also be used to send and receive documents if it is equipped with a special electronic
circuit board called a fax board
