Are you looking for a cheap, clean,effective sourse of power that doesn’t cause pollution or waste
natural resourses? Look no further than solar energy from our sun.At present,most of our electricity comes

from the use of coal,and gas,oil or nuclear power.This power could be provided by the sun. One present of
the solar energy that reaches the Earth is enough to provide power for the total population.
Many countries are already using solar energy.Solar panels are placed on the roof of a house and the
sun’s energy is used to heat water .The energy can be stored for a number of days, so on cloudy days you
can use solar energy too.
Sweden has an advanced solar energy program. There, all buildings will be heated by solar energy
and cars will use solar power instead of gas by the year 2015

III, READING
1/ Reading the passage and decide if the following sentences are true or false.
Almost a hundred thousand people were killed and half a million homes destroyed as a result of an
earthquake in Tokyo in 1923. The earthquake began a minute before noon when the habitants of Tokyo were
cooking their midday meals. Thousands of stoves were overturned as soon as the earth began to shake. As a
result, small fires broke out everywhere and quickly spread.
The fire engines were prevented from going to help because many of the roads had cracked open. It was
impossible to use fire fighting equipment as most of the water pipes had burst. Consequently, over ninety
percent of damage was caused by fire rather than by the collapse of buildings.
Most of those who died were not killed in the earthquake itself but in the fires, which followed. If the
earthquake had occured at night while people were sleeping, far fewer would haved died.

True or false

earthquakes all over the world; huge fires; and so on. But I’ll never forget my first personal

December 4th when a high –pressure system (warm air) cover southern England. With the freezingcold air below, heavy fog formed. Pollution from factories, cars, and coal stoves mixed with the fog.

People couldn’t see, and some walked onto the railroad tracks or into the river. It was hard to
breathe, and many people got sick. Finally on Tuesday, December 9th, the wind came and the fog
went away. But after that, even more people got sick, many of them died.
