During the Cold War, US sent many spies to Russia. Some of them were obviously through the diplomatic channel, who were working on day jobs in the US embassy. But there were other agents whom US air-dropped into Russian territory. The spies used to speak perfect Russian, just like the natives. They had all Russian clothes and equipments. They also had the latest US spy gadgets. However, time after time, they were unmasked by the government.

Sometimes if things are too perfect, the outcome can be bad!

The secret lied in their passports. Though the Americans made perfectly good Soviet passports, the staples they used were good quality American staples, that didn't rust. Genuine Russian passports had staples made of metal that began to rust as soon as the passports were issued

X is a device used in filmmaking and video production to assist in the synchronizing of picture and sound, and to designate and mark particular scenes and takes recorded during a production. The sharp noise that the device makes can be identified easily on the audio track, and the shutting of the X can be identified easily on the separate visual track. The two tracks can then be precisely synchronized by matching the sound and movement.

Q 14.1. Truly performed by masses: 100,000 performers participate in the X, which is “admired by the spectators for its kaleidoscopic background and wonderful scenes”2. New this decade: X was introduced in 2002 to celebrate the ninetieth anniversary of the birth of Kim Il Sung3. Countless of performances: Over its eight-year life, X has been performed “several hundred times”4. World record-setting: The Guinness Book of World Records picked up X in August 2007, but that’s not nearly as impressive the fact that it was “the first to receive Peace Order and its diploma in April of the same year since it was instituted by “Protectors of Arts for the Century”, a Russian international charity fund, to appreciate epoch-making masterpieces, inventions and works”5. Millions and millions served: Apparently, 12,127,000 people have viewed all the Arirang performances held, 118,000 of them foreigners … but who’s counting?

Q 28. Who tweeted this?

Q 29.• In Japanese culture it is widely believed that X brings good luck to

thousands of high school students who sit for their entrance examinations to gain an admission into Japan's top universities because co-incidentally X in Japanese translates to "You shall surely win" or "Be Victorious".

• Y (manufacturers of X) responded to this fortuitous linguistic association by producing for the Japanese market special types of X that carry additional exam-related symbols on their packaging.

• Also when the Japan Postal service was being privatized, Y seized an opportunity and created a business model that didn't exist before. Y partnered with the newly privatized post office and created a new package of X that could be posted, called X Mail. People could write their message on the packaging, put a stamp on it and put it in the mail. Many post office branches during exams decorate their stores with X branding which has now become a part of their culture.

• What are X and Y?

X- nestle

Y- kitkat
