(ID : e696) VI. Read the passage and do the task below
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 inhabitants of Tokyo was
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 was 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 the damage caused the fire rather than by the
collapse of the buildings . Most of those who died were not killed in the earthquake itself but in the fires which
followed .

1. American

2. energy

3. equipment

4. ninety percent/ 90%

Tapescript:
Heating and cooling equipment are the biggest users of energy in American homes. And homes are responsible
for about one fourth of the nation’s total energy use. But there are surprisingly simple ways to deeply cut energy
use, its effect on the environment and its cost.
David Peabody and his team at Peabody Architects design passive homes. He says the design of a passive house
aims to reduce energy demand to its lowest possible level. Passive houses use no solar, geothermal or wind
energy equipment. But they are extremely energy efficient.
Mr. Peabody says passive houses cut heating and cooling costs by about ninety percent. But what sets his design
apart from other "green homes" is that it looks like any other home.
