Every profession of trade, every art and every science has its technical
vocabulary, the function of which is partly to designate things or processes which
have no names in ordinary English and partly to secure greater exactness in
nomenclature. Such special dialects or jargons are necessary in technical
discussion of any kind. Being universally understood by the devotees of the
particular science or art, they have the precision of a mathematical formula.
Besides, they save time, for it is much more economical to name a process than
to describe it. Thousands of these technical terms are very properly included in
every large dictionary, yet, as a whole, they are rather on the outskirts of the
English language than actually within its borders.
Different occupations, however, differ widely in the character of their special
vocabularies. In trades and handicrafts and other vocations like farming and
fishing that have occupied great numbers of men from remote times, the
technical vocabulary is very old. An average man now uses these in his own
vocabularly. The special dialects of law, medicine, divinity and philosophy have
become familiar to cultivated persons.

In May 1966, The World Health Organisation was authorised to initiate a global
campaign to eradicate small pox. The goal was to eradicate the disease in one
decade. Because similar projects for malaria and yellow fever had failed, few
believed that smallpox could actually be eradicated, but eleven years after the
initial organisation of the campaign, no cases were reported in the field. The
strategy was not only to provide mass vaccinations, but also to isolate patients
with active small-pox in order to contain the spread of the disease and to break
the chain of human transmission. Rewards for reporting small-pox assisted in
motivating the public to aid health workers. One by one, each small-pox victim
was sought out, removed from contact with others and treated. At the same time,
the entire, village where the victim had lived was vaccinated.
Today small pox is no longer a threat to humanity. Routine vaccinations have
been stopped worldwide.

Two years later, in November 1895, he signed his final will. He left the bulk of his
fortune, amounting to about £1,75,000 to a trust fund administered by Swedish
and Norwegian trustees. The annual interest shall be awarded as prizes to those
persons who during the previous year have rendered the greatest services to

discovery, one to the person who has produced the most outstanding work of

If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are
subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking, as you do. If

geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction.

subconsciously

“People very often complain that poverty is a great evil and that it is not possible
to be happy unless one has a lot of money. Actually, this is not necessarily true.
Even a poor man, living in a small hut with none of the comforts and luxuries of
life, may be quite contented with his lot and achieve a measure of happiness. On
the other hand, a very rich man, living in a palace and enjoying everything that
money can buy, may still be miserable, if, for example, he does not enjoy good
health or his only son has taken to evil ways. Apart from this, he may have a lot
of business worries which keep him on tenterhooks most of the time. There is a
limit to what money can buy and there are many things which are necessary for a
man’s happiness and which money cannot procure.
Real happiness is a matter of the right attitude and the capacity of being
contented with whatever you have is the most important ingredient of this
attitude”.

21. The phrase “on tenterhooks” means:
