Read the passage and answer the questions below. There are many sources of pollution in our modern world. At present, the most serious sources are acid rain, car exhaust fumes and oil spills.Factory chimneys give out smoke that contains sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide. These gases combine with water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulphuric acid and nitric acid. When it rains, these acids dissolve in the rain and make it acidic. Acid rain is believed to be the worst pollution problem of all. It has harmed water life by turning many lakes into lifeless bodies of water.

Car exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide and lead which are highly poisonous. In big cities, the exhaust fumes build up and cause a health danger to human beings. Therefore, today some large cities have to ban cars from the city center to wipe out smoke and limit the emission of poisonous gases to solve the problem of air pollution.

English is my mother tongue. Besides, I can speak French and Spanish. I studied the two languages when I was at high school. Now, I am still learning Spanish at the University. As for me, mastering a foreign language is not easy. After studying a language, practice is very necessary and useful. Traveling to the country where the target language is spoken is very helpful, but if you cannot speak the language well enough you will certainly have troubles. I also frequently go to the movies, watch television, listen to the radio in the language I am trying to learn. Reading is another good way to learn. Books are good, but I personally think newspapers and magazines are better. However, getting some knowledge of the language is the most important thing. Grammar and vocabulary should be mastered first.

1. How many languages can the writer speak?A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4

2. The writer has learnt Spanish _______.A. in Spain B. at high school C. at University D. B and C

2. Traveling may cause troubles if _______.A. you cannot speak the language well enough. B. you can speak the language well enough.C. you can speak the language bad enough.D. you can communicate in the target language.

3. Some useful ways to practice your target language are _______.A.. reading books in the language. B. listening to the radio and

watching TV in the language.C. seeing films in the language. D. all are correct.

They are popular with children and adults, too. We can learn from them or we can have a good time watching them.We also call movies 'motion pictures'. 'Motion' is a noun for 'moving'. People tried to show motion in pictures for centuries. Even prehistoric artists showed animals running in theier cave pictures.Near the end of the 19th century several Europeans and Americans tried to make movies. No one knows who made the first one. New York City had the first movie theatre in 1894. People put money in a small machine and looked into it at the movie. By 1900, movies were popular all over Europe and the United States. They were not very good, but people liked them because they were new and different.Every year people invented ways to make movies better. They invented machines to show the pictures on a screen. Then everyone could see the motion pictures on the front wall of a theatre instead of inside a small machine. In 1927, inventors add sound to movies. Then they added color.Today it costs several million dollars to make a movie. However, movie makers collect million dollars from people at movie theatres because everyone loves movies.

Read the passage below then state whether the following sentences are TRUE or FALSE : It is important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us to chew our food. They also help us to look nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamel covering of the tooth. This happens after germs and bits of food have collected there. Then the decay slowly spreads inside the tooth. Eventually, poison goes into the

18

blood, and we may feel quite ill.How can we keep our teeth healthy? Firstly, we ought to visit our dentist twice a year. He can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to check that they are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many people wait until they have toothache before they see a dentist. Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day- once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal. Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit. Chocolates, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay.

SAVE THE WORLD We are all destroying the earth. The seas and rivers are too dirty to swim in. There is so much smoke in the air that it is unhealthy to live in many of world’s cities. We have cut down so much trees that there are now vast areas of wasteland all over the world. As a result, farmers in parts of Africa cannot grow enough to eat. In certain countries in Asia there is too little rice. Wild animals are quickly disappearing. For instance, tigers are rare in India now because we have killed too many. However, it isn’t enough simply to talk about the problem. We must act now before it is too late to do anything about it. Join us now. Save
