III-Read the passages carefully and answer the following questions :
At present, people depend on unlimited energy to power their everyday lives. A wide range of
energy-run devices and modern conveniences are taken for granted, and although it may seem that we will
never be in danger of living without those conveniences, the fact is that many supplies of energy are
dwindling rapidly. Scientists are constantly searching for new sources of power to keep modern society
running. Whether future populations will continue to enjoy the benefit of abundant energy will depend on
the success of this search.
Coal, oil, and natural gas supply modern civilization with most of its power. However, not only are
supplies of these fuels limited, but they are a major source of pollution. If the energy demands of the future
are to be met without seriously harming the environment, existing alternative energy sources must be
improved or further explored and developed. These include nuclear, water, solar, wind, and geothermal
power, as well as energy from new, nonpolluting types of fuels. Each of these alternatives, however, has
advantages and disadvantages.
Nuclear power plants efficiently produce large amounts of electricity without polluting the atmosphere;
however, they are costly to build and maintain, and they pose the daunting problem of what to do with
nuclear wastes. Hydroelectric power is inexpensive and environmentally safe, but impractical for
communities located far from moving water. Harnessing energy from tides and waves has similar

drawbacks. Solar power holds great promise for the future but methods of collecting and –concentrating
sunlight are as yet inefficient, as are methods of harnessing wind power.
Every source of energy has its disadvantages. One way to minimize them is to use less energy.
Conservation efforts coupled with renewable energy resources, such as a combination of solar, water, wind,
and geothermal energy and alternative fuels, such as alcohol and hydrogen, will ensure supplies of clean,
affordable energy for humanity's future.

a. people use energy without giving great thought to where it's coming from.

3. From the passage, it can be inferred that to solve our energy problems ______.
a. we will have to stop using many of our modern conveniences
b. scientists will have to find one major source of nonpolluting energy
c. scientists will have to find ways to increase our supplies of coal, oil and gas
d. a combination of conservation and invention will be needed
4. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
a. The search for alternative energy sources is not over.

VI-Read the passages carefully and answer the following questions :

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Although they are safe to use in the short term, coal, gas and oil represent 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. Thus, contrary to popular belief, the use of coal, gas and oil is not as safe
as was originally thought. Furthermore, all three fossil fuels are non-renewable forms of energy.
Hydro-power (in the form of waterfalls and dams) offers a much more useful source of energy. It is
also renewable but its availability is limited. Dams cannot be built in certain areas. In addition, dams may
have a damaging effect on a locality, resulting in the loss of farming land and the sitting up of rivers. Large
dams are also capable of causing changes in the world’s climate.
Solar power is renewable, it doesn’t cause pollution and it doesn’t add to the earth heat load.
Unfortunately, solar power is not distributed equally, and in northern latitudes it is difficult to collect and
store. Solar power also require expensive equipment.
Finally, nuclear power provides a very efficient and renewable power source. However, not only there
is a great danger of leaks or accidents but there is also the problem of the disposal of radioactive waste.
28. Fossil fuels
a. are safe but limited
b. are not safe even if they’re used in the short term.
