What problem regarding colour does the writer explain in the first paragraph?

Our view of colour is strongly affected by changing fashion.

Analysis is complicated by the bewildering number of natural colours.

Colours can have different associations in different parts of the world.

Certain popular books have dismissed colour as insignificant.

Pitanje 14

What is the first reason the writer gives for the lack of academic work on the history of colour?

There are problems of reliability associated with the artefacts available.

Historians have seen colour as being outside their field of expertise.

Colour has been rather looked down upon as a fit subject for academic study.

Very little documentation exists for historians to use.

Pitanje 15

The recruitment of men to the armed forces during the conflict in Europe from 1914 to 1918 meant there was very little persecution, since gamekeepers went off to fight. As the number of gamekeepers decreased, the wildcat began to increase its range, recolonising many of its former haunts. Extinction was narrowly averted.

The wildcat waits for a while in rapt concentration, ears twitching and eyes watching, seeing everything and hearing everything, trying to detect the tell-tale movement of a vole or a mouse. But there is nothing, and in another leap he disappears into the gloom.

The results, which are expected shortly,

will be fascinating. But anyone who has seen a wildcat will be in little doubt that there is indeed a unique and distinctive animal living in the Scottish Highlands, whatever his background.

They probably used deciduous and coniferous woodland for shelter, particularly in winter, and hunted over more open areas such as forest edge,

open woodland, thickets and scrub,

grassy areas and marsh. The wildcat

was probably driven into more mountainous areas by a combination of

deforestation and persecution.

As the animals emerge, their curiosity

is aroused by every movement and rustle in the vegetation. Later they will accompany their mother on hunting trips, learning quickly, and soon

become adept hunters themselves.

This is what makes many people think

that the wildcat is a species in its own

right. Research currently being undertaken by Scottish Natural

Heritage is investigating whether the wildcat really is distinct from its homeliving cousin, or whether it is nothing more than a wild-living form of the domestic cat.

It is a typical image most folk have of

the beast, but it is very much a false

one, for the wildcat is little more than a

bigger version of the domestic cat, and

probably shows his anger as often.
