Elementary Read the passage below and then answer the questions. An Odd Spider Most spiders live on land, but this spider is different. It spends most of its time under water. How does it breathe? It breathes by making a tent full of air bubbles under water. First, it spins a web in the shape of a bell. Then, it fixes it to plants under the water. Next, it swims up to the top of the water and traps a tiny bubble of air with its hairy back legs. It drags the bubble to its web. It does this many times until its home is full of air. Then it sits nice and snug in its web and feeds on tiny fish and other water animals. 1. The passage is about a spider that a)cannot spin a web b)lives under water c)lives in plants 2.

The Musical Number and the Sitcom
ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 5 Issue 1 (Spring 2003) It May Look Like a Living Room…: The Musical Number and the Sitcom By Robin Stilwell Georgetown University 1. They are images firmly established in the common television consciousness of most Americans: Lucy and Ethel stuffing chocolates in their mouths and clothing as they fall hopelessly behind at a confectionary conveyor belt, a sunburned Lucy trying to model a tweed suit, Lucy getting soused on Vitameatavegemin on live television—classic slapstick moments. But what was I Love Lucy about? It was about Lucy trying to “get in the show,” meaning her husband’s nightclub act in the first instance, and, in a pinch, anything else even remotely resembling show business. In The Dick Van Dyke Show, Rob Petrie is also in show business, and though his wife, Laura, shows no real desire to “get in the show,” Mary Tyler Moore is given ample opportunity to display her not-insignificant talent for singing and dancing—as are the other cast members—usually in the Petries’ living room. The idealized family home is transformed into, or rather revealed to be, a space of display and performance. 2. These shows, two of the most enduring situation comedies (“sitcoms”) in American television history, feature musical numbers in many episodes. The musical number in television situation comedy is a perhaps surprisingly prevalent phenomenon. In her introduction to genre studies, Jane Feuer uses the example of Indians in Westerns as the sort of surface element that might belong to a genre, even though not every example of the genre might exhibit that element: not every Western has Indians, but Indians are still paradigmatic of the genre (Feuer, “Genre Study” 139).

Making and Managing Class: Employment of Paid Domestic Workers in Russia Anna Rotkirch, Olga Tkach and Elena Zdravomyslova Intro
Making and Managing Class: Employment of Paid Domestic Workers in Russia Anna Rotkirch, Olga Tkach and Elena Zdravomyslova This text is published with minor corrections as Chapter 6 in Suvi Salmenniemi (ed) Rethinking class in Russia. London: Ashgate 2012, 129-148. Introduction1 Before, they used to say “everybody comes from the working classes”. I have had to learn these new practices from scratch. I had to understand how to organise my domestic life, how to communicate with the people who I employ. They have to learn this too. (Lidiia, housekeeper) Social class is a relational concept, produced through financial, social and symbolic exchange and acted out in the market, in work places, and also in personal consumption and lifestyle. The relations between employers and employees constitute one key dimension of social class. Of special interest are the contested interactions that lack established cultural scripts and are therefore prone to uncertainties and conflicts. Commercialised interactions in the sphere of domesticity contribute to the making of social class no less than do those in the public sphere. In this chapter, we approach paid domestic work as a realm of interactions through which class boundaries are drawn and class identity is formed. We are interested in how middle class representatives seek out their new class identity through their standards and strategies of domestic management, although we also discuss the views of the domestic workers. As the housekeeper Lidiia stresses in the introductory quotation to this chapter, both employers and employees have to learn new micro-management practices and class relations from scratch. The assertion that class is in continual production (Skeggs 2004) is especially true for the contemporary Russian situation, where stratification grids are loose and class is restructured under the pressure of political and economic changes.

Vietnamese Parents and Czech Nannies: Second-Generation Immigrant Children and Their Educators
DOI: 10.15503/jecs20141-320-333 Local cultures and societies Vietnamese Parents and Czech Nannies: Second-Generation Immigrant Children and their Educators Adéla Souralová Department of Sociology, Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic. E-mail adress: [email protected] Abstract Many second-generation Vietnamese immigrant children in the Czech Republic are bro- ught up by Czech nannies. While their parents are incorporated into the labour market in order to provide their children with sufÞ cient economic capital for their education, the role of caregivers is relinquished to nannies. Both parents and nannies become important actors in the children’s educational process, from the stage of acquiring Þ rst words, through primary school, to the moment they are admitted into university. This paper analyses the roles of parents and nannies in this educational process. It draws upon 60 interviews conducted with Þ rst-generation immigrant mothers, second-generation immigrants, and Czech nannies. The perspective of all three actors are presented here in order to reveal the interviewee’s under- standing of the role of education in the parent-child and nanny-child relationships. How is education manifested in the deÞ nitions of parenting and caregiving? The paper illuminates the educational strategies taking place outside the educational institution as being an inherent part of everyday life. Simultaneously, the article reveals the meanings of education for the immigrant families as being linked both to past experience and future expectations. Key words: second generation immigrants, education, caregiving, parenting “For their future, education is the most important.” (Ms. Duong,4 mother of two children) “I know she loves me because she cares about me and she provides me with money for my education.” (Lien, 18-year-old) “They like learning, these kids.

The Case of Bartu Ben
Transformation of Comedy with Streaming Services: The Case of Bartu Ben Nisa Yıldırım, Independent Scholar [email protected] Volume 8.2 (2020) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2020.300 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract Comedy has always been one of the most popular genres in Turkish cinema and television series. As the distinction between film and series has begun to blur in the post-television era, narratives are transforming according to the characteristics of the new medium. Streaming services targeting niche audience offer more freedom to creators of their content. This article aims to study the comedy series Bartu Ben (Its me, Bartu) which is one of the original series of Turkish streaming service Blu TV, in order to interpret the differences of the series from traditional television comedies, and contribution of streaming services to the transformation of the genre.

Streaming services have been threatening cinema and television lately in terms of both production and distribution by creating their original films and series, besides offering wide-ranging archives including films, series, and documentaries from various countries with subtitles and dubbing options.
