Facsimile, often called fax, is a way of transmitting texts and pictures over telephone lines. News
services often use facsimile to send news, stories and photographs to newspaper and television stations.
Banks, law firms and other businesses use facsimile to send copies of documents to clients and other
organizations.
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.

stepmother was beginning to wish she had never tried to get rid of the children. I must find them, she

Many hours later, when her feet were tired from walking and her lips were dry from thirst, she
came to the cottage belonging to the witch. The stepmother peeped through the window. Her heart cried
out when she saw the two children.
She picked up the broom leaning against the door and crept inside. The witch was putting some
stew in the oven when the stepmother gave her an almighty push. The witch fell into the oven and the
stepmother shut the door.
Children, I have come to save you, she said, hugging them tightly. I have done a dreadful
thing. I hope in time you will forgive me. Let me take you home and become a family again. They
