PREPARING A DINNER PARTY
Giving a dinner party is a wonderful way of entertain people.
You can also make new friends and give others the chance to get
to know each other better.
It needs planning, though. First, make a guest list, with
different kinds of people and a mixture of women and men. Don’t
invite couples because they aren’t so much fun.
When you know who can come, find out what they like to eat
and drink. Note down any who are vegetarians, or who can’t eat
or drink certain things for religious seasons.
Then plan their menu. Include a first course, a choice of main
courses and a dessert, plus lots of people’s favourite drinks.
The next thing to do is the shopping. Make sure buy more than
enough of everything, and that someone can help you carry it!
On the day, start cooking early. Give people appetizers like
Greek mezze or Spanish tapas, so they don’t get hungry if they
have to wait. Serve the delicious meal, sit down with your quests
and have a good time – you’ve earned it!
1) Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the purpose of
giving a dinner party?
A. to entertain people. B. to make new friends.
C. to get people to know more about their host and hostess.
D. to help people to know each other better.
2) when giving a dinner party, you should NOT
invite .
A. husbands and wives. B. those who are vegetarians.
C. both women and men. D. those who can’t eat or
drink certain things.

4) According to the passage, starters should be
served
A. because the guests want to have a good time together
B. because the guests like eating them
C. because the guests want to eat them while having to wait

The search for alternative sources of energy has led 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 wastes.
Experiment work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from
coal, oil shale, and coal tars. But to date, 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 provided one third of the electricity used in the United
States, but today it supplies only 4 percent. The oceans are another
potential source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert
the energy of ocean, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments
are also underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean
water to produce energy.

The Asian Games owes its origins to small Asian multi-sport
competitions. The Far Eastern Championship Games were created to show
unity and cooperation among three nations: Japan, the Philippines and China.
The first games were held in Manila, the Philippines in 1931. Other Asian
nations participated after it was organized.
After World War II, a number of Asian countries became independent.
Many of the new independent Asian countries wanted to use a new type of
competition where Asian dominance should not be shown by violence and
should be strengthened by mutual understanding. In August 1948, during the

about holding the Asian Games. They agreed to form the Asian Athletic

Stamp collecting is the collecting of postage stamps and related objects,
such as envelopes or packages with stamps on them. It is one of the world’s
most popular hobbies, with estimates of the number of collectors ranging up to
20 million in the United States alone.
Many collectors enjoy accumulating stamps without worrying about the
tiny details, but the creation of a large or comprehensive collection generally
requires some philatelic knowledge. This is especially important for those
who intend to spend large amounts for stamps.
Stamp collectors are an important source of revenue for some small
countries that create limited runs of elaborate stamps designed mainly to be
bought by stamp collectors. The stamps produced by these countries far
exceed the postal needs of the countries.
Some collectors, observing the generally rising prices of rare stamps,
have taken to Philatelic Investment. Rare stamp are among the most portable
investments and are easy to store. They offer an attractive to art, other

was in a chance for all the members of my class for a three -month
summer holiday. The bus waited for us outside the school and left at 6
o’clock. It took us (half an hour) to go there, so it was still early when
we arrived. We began our work immediately after light breakfast in
the open air. The boys were in charge of putting up the umbrella tent
and the girls decorated and cleaned it. After that we sang together and
played “hide and seek”, which was very exciting and interesting.
Then we talked around the wood, watching green hills and big trees
and enjoying fresh air. At noon, we prepared lunch and cooked food
over and open over an open fire. While we were eating, we talked to
one another happily. After lunch we had a rest, then some of us went
fishing or swimming and the others sang and dances until … p.m. We
began to collect all things, got on the bus at … p.m and came back to
