Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer:
In the early years of television, educational specialists believed that it would
be very useful in teaching and learning. Many schools have brought television sets,
intending to use them effectively to improve the quality of education; but actually they are
rarely used properly in classrooms. Meanwhile, children spending the majority of their

8

out-of-school hours watching TV and their typical school days proceed as if television did
not exist.
There are some explanations for the failure of television to get the interest
of the teachers. Firstly, the schools that purchased television sets have not set aside money
for equipment repairs and maintenance so these television sets are sooner and later out of
work. Secondly these schools have not found an effective way to train teachers to
integrate television into their ongoing instructional programs. Lastly, most teachers do not
regard the quality of television and its usefulness in the classroom.
Teachers at the schools work hard for at least twelve years to train their
students to become good readers. However, according a recent statistics, teenagers seldom
spend their free time reading books and newspapers but watching television instead.

Are you looking for a cheap, clean, effective source of power that doesn’t cause
pollution or waste of natural resource? Look no further than solar energy from our sun. At
present, most of our electricity comes from the use of coal, gas, oil, or nuclear power. This
power could be provided by the sun. one percent of solar energy that reaches the earth is
enough to provide power for the total population. Many countries have already used 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.

More than two hundred years ago, the term “environmental pollution” was very strange to
people. They lived healthily, drank pure water, and breathed fresh air. Nowadays the
situation is quite different. People all over the world are worried about things that are
happening to the environment. Actually it is man that is destroying the surroundings with
many kinds of wastes. Everybody knows that motorbikes and cars emit dangerous gases
that cause poisonous air and cancer, but no one wants to travel on foot or by bicycle.
Manufactures know that wastes from factories make water and soil polluted, but they do
not want to spend a lot of their money on treating the wastes safely. Scattering garbage is
bad for our health, but no one wants to spend time burying it. Is it worth talking a lot
about pollution?

Read the following passage and answer the questions
Everyday on radio, on TV, and in the newspaper, we hear, see or read about many
problems in the world, for example, pollution problems.
Air pollution is the first kind. It mostly comes from fumes released from motorbikes,
cars, airplanes, trains and poisonous gases emitted from factories. Also, waste is dumped
any where, even in the city where many people are living. The second pollution problem
is sea pollution. Many people earn their living from fishing in the sea, and the fish they
catch feed many people. But the sea has become so polluted from oil spills and factory
wastes that the fish are dying. This pollution is not only killing the fish, but is also
affecting those people who eat fish.
Seldom do you find a place nowadays that is not polluted. This problem is growing
more difficult everyday. We must find a good solution that makes the world a better place
to live.

FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON
Long ago a lot of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was
just a light in the sky. And others thought it was a big ball of cheese!
The telescopes were made. And men saw that the moon was really another world.
They wondered what it was like. They dreamed of going there.
On July 20,1969, that dream came true. Two American men landed on the moon.
Their names were Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. The first thing the men found was
that the moon is covered with dust. The dust is so thick that the men left footprints where
they walked. Those were the first marks a living thing had ever made on the moon. And
they could stay there for years and years. There is no wind or rain to wipe them off.
The two men walked on the moon for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to
earth for study. They drug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things
people wanted to know. Then they climbed back into their moon landing craft.
Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon. They
joined Michael Collins in the spaceship that waited for them above the moon. Then they
were off on their long trip back to earth. Behind them they left the plains and tall
mountains of the moon. They left the machines they had set up. And they left footprints
that may last forever.

A. about the first men to walk on the moon.

2. A telescope _____.
A. makes balls of light seem brighter.
B. turns the moon into another world.
C. makes many of men’s dreams come true.
D. makes faraway things seem closer.
3. The men brought rocks and dirt from the moon because _____.
A. they wanted something to show they were there.
B. people wanted to use them to learn about the moon.

4. The Americans’ machines will most likely stay on the moon until _____.
A. someone takes them away.
