Although they are safe to use in the short term, coal, gas and oil present a long term threat to the environment. All three types of fossil fuels produce carbon dioxide in far greater quantities than plants can use. The carbon dioxide then accumulates in the atmosphere and may even increase the earth’s “heat load” and lead to global rises in temperature. Furthermore, all three fossil fuels are nonrenewable forms of energy. Geothermal power is unlikely ever to be an energy source of major importance. It is limited and is exploitable in only a few places. Hydropower offers a much more useful source of energy. It is also renewable but its availability is limited. Dams cannot be built in certain
areas. Wind power is a pollutionfree source of energy but it cannot be used in many parts of the world where there is insufficient wind. Wave power is non polluting and doesn’t add to the earth’s heat but it is ineffective where the sea is usually calm. Solar power is renewable.It neither causes pollution nor adds to the earth’s heat load. Unfortunately, solar power is not distributed equally and it also requires expensive equipment. Finally, nuclear power provides a very efficient and renewable power source. However, not only is there a great danger of leaks or accidents but there is also the problem of the disposal of radioactive waste. 1. The threat caused by fossil fuels in the long term is _____________________. A. The safety of using them B. The nonrenewable forms of energy C. The increase in global temperatures D. The greater quantities of carbon dioxide in plants 2. Geothermal power is less popular than other renewable sources of energy because ___________. A. It is dangerous sometimes B. It is not available in many places C. It is polluted D. It costs a lot to exploit 3. It is worrying to use nuclear power because _______________________. A. It is inefficient B. It can cause accidents C. It is nonrenewable D. It is not leaking 4. What is NOT true about the passage? A. Fossil fuels are unlimited and safe to use in the distant future. B. Hydropower is impossible in places where dams cannot be built. C. Like any other renewable sources of energy, solar energy has become disadvantages. D. The use of solar energy and wind power depends on the weather. 5. The word “accumulates” in the passage is closest in meaning to: A. builds up B. declines C. decreases D. gets smaller WRITING I.

A HEALTHY MIND The brain is the most amazing part of our body and despite ai! medical research nobody really understands everything about it. But just like our bodies, it needs to be cared for in ways that can be quite simple. Getting a good night's sleep, eating a balanced diet and taking deep breaths are all important methods of looking after both your body and your brain. Many people think their brain will slow down with age and their memory will get worse as a result. The truth isr just like your body, you can also improve your mind. I've found I can improve my memory by imagining what I need to remember. For example, if I'm going shopping and I need
bread, milk and a birthday card for rmy brother, I imagine a loaf of bread, a carton of milk with a cow on the front and a birthday card with a football on it. The same kind of method can be used with important dates. If you have a picture in your mind of a particular event it's much easier to remember than just a number on a calendar. Another way of improving your mind is to make sure you regularly visit new places and have new experiences. Personally I find learning Spanish is a great way to keep the brain working, but communication in any language is important. Having a conversation is so much better for your brain than staring at a computer screen or at other people talking on TV. 1. What is the writer's main aim in writing the text? A. to explain how the brain works B. to talk about problems with the brain C. to describe how clever she has become D. to suggest the brain needs attention 2. What does the reader learn about the writer from the text? A. She has a computer. B. She is learning another language. C. She likes shopping. D. She enjoys travelling. 3. What does the writer say about the brain? A. It should be treated in a similar way to our bodies. B. Not enough medical research is being done on it. C. it definitely becomes less quick when we are older. D. It ages faster than our bodies. 4. What does the writer say about her own memory? A. It has been possible to make it better. B. She finds objects more difficult to remember than numbers. C. It has got worse over the years. D. She often forgets birthdays. 5. What would be another title for the text? A. Easy ways to develop your mind. B. The latest research into the brain. C. The amazing power of memory. D. How to remember things you thought you'd forgotten.
