IV. Read the following passages. Then answer the questions

Young people prefer the town to the country because they love the noise and busy life. They also think that it is easier to get money in the town than in the country, Therefore, more and more young people leave the country for the town every year. Different from young people, old people like living in the country because the country is not so noisy and busy as the town. The air in the country is much fresher than the air in the town, too. Therefore, after stopping working, many of the old people move to their home villages.

Questions: 1. Why do young people prefer the town to the country?

==>Because they love the noise and busy life.

2. Do they think that it is more difficult to get money in the country than in the town?

=>No.They don't.

3. What about the air in the country?

=>It is much fresher than the air in the town.

4. What do many of the old people do after stop working?

=>They move to their home villages.

ead the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. Last week I made the mistake of visiting the village where I grew up. It was a small, friendly community with two farms and a number of old cottages round the village green. I realized very quickly that although in many ways it appears unchanged, in reality hardly anything is the same. All the pretty cottages are there, of course, and both the picturesque farmhouses. But none of the inhabitants are country people. All of them are commuters, who leave early every morning for the nearby town. Neither of the farmhouses is attached to a farm these days; the land has been sold and is managed by somebody in an office somewhere who has little interest in the village itself. There are a few new houses, but they have no local character; you can see the same style anywhere in the country. The whole of the village, in fact, has been tidied up so much that it has become nothing more than just another suburb. 1.

Find 7 mistakes in the paragraph and correct them:

Alternative sources of energy


In the " Search for Free Energy", Tutt's recently released book, he quotes " We ought to be able to obtain the energy we need without the consumption of material." These are not the words of some modern-day environmentalist, but of Nikola Tesla, in 1890. Among his invention was the device to generate electricity by harnessing "coming energy". The search for free, and expensive energy continues. Researchers are looking for "fuelless" technologies that will not pollute or run out, and they are not referring to the puny contribution of solar or wind power. The science establishment has so far been proven correct, there's no such thing as a free energy lunch but that hasn't stopped mad scientists trying. They've come up with numerable patents of "over unity" contraptions, supposed giving out more energy than you put in to get them going. The story is fascinating and rarely heavy-going, although the quotes can be overlong and the diagrams are adequately displayed. Tutt admits that only a fraction of what is claimed is true. But it's also true to say we cannot afford to dismiss them out of hand, as one of these conforming investigators may just be able to save our planet from climate change.

II/ Read the text and choose the best answers A, B, C or D. to the questions. (1m)

Most of the countries in the world have searched for alternative sources of energy in various directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity. Converting waste products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of waste.

Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil, shale and coal tars. But today that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness power with giant windmills. Geothermal power heat from the earth is also being tested.

Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in the United States, but today it supplies only five percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of the temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.

1. Which is the best title of the passage?

A. The use of water productions for energy

B. Efficient ways of disposing of waste

C. The search for Alternative Sources of Energy

D. New Discoveries in Geothermal Power

2. Fifty years ago one third of the electricity in the United States was provided by_________.

A. wind B. waste products C. oil D. water

3. In the second paragraph, the phrase “synthetic fuels” could be best replaced by which of the following _________.

A. biological fuels B. artificial made fuels

C. low burning fuels D. fast burning fuels

4. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as an alternative source of energy?

A. electricity B. burning of garbage

C. geothermal power D. synthetics fuels

5. According to the author, the impracticability of using coal, oil shale and coal tars as sources of energy is due to _________.

A. their being money consuming B. their being time consuming

C. the scarcity of sources D. the lack of technology

Every drop of water in the ocean, even in the deepest parts, responds to the forces that create the tides. No other force that affects the sea is so strong. Compared with the tides, the waves created by the wind are surface movements feltno more than a hundred fathoms below the surface.

Every drop of water in the ocean, even in the deepest parts, responds to the forces that create the tides. No other force that affects the sea is so strong. Compared with the tides, the waves created by the wind are surface movements feltno more than a hundred fathoms below the surface. The currents also seldom involve more than the upper several hundred fathoms despite their impressive sweep.

The tides are a response of the waters of the ocean to the pull of the Moon and the more distant Sun. In theory, there is a gravitational attraction between the water and even the outermost star of the universe. In reality, however, the pull of remote stars is so slight as to be obliterated by the control of the Moon and, to a lesser extent, the Sun. Just as the Moon rises later each day by fifty minutes, on the average, so, in most places, the time of high tide iscorrespondingly later each day. And as the Moon waxes and wanes in its monthly cycle, so the height of the tide varies. The tidal movements are strongest when the Moon is a sliver in the sky, and when it is full. These are the highest flood tides and the lowest ebb tides of the lunar month and are called the spring tides. At these times, the Sun, Moon, and Earth are nearly in line and the pull of the two heavenly bodies is added together to bring the water high on the beaches, to send its surf upward against the sea cliffs, and to draw a high tide into the harbors. Twice each month, at the quarters of the Moon, when the Sun, Moon, and Earth lie at the apexes of a triangular configuration and the pull of the Sun and Moon are opposed, the moderate tidal movements called neap tides occur. Then the difference between high and low water is less than at any other time during the month.

Choose A, B, C, or D

1. The main point of the first paragraph is ...

A. The wave created by ocean currents are very large

B. Despite the strength of the wind, it only moves surface water

C. Deep ocean water is seldom affected by forces that move water

D. The tides are the most powerful force to affect the movement of ocean water

2. The word "In reality" in the third sentence of the second paragraph is closest in meaning to

A. Surprisingly

B. Actually

C. Characteristically

D. Similarly

3. According to the passage, the most vital factor in recognizing how much gravitational effect one object in space has on the tides is

A. Size

B. Distance

C. Temperature

D. Density

4. In the ninth sentence of the second paragraph, the word "configuration" is closest in meaning to

A. Unit

B. Center

C. Surface

D. Arrangement

5. Neap tides occur when

A. The sun counteracts the moon's gravitational attraction

B. The moon is full

C. The moon is farthest from the sun

D. Waves created by the wind combine with the moon's gravitational attraction
