* Are you looking for a cheap, clean, effective source of power that doesn't cause pollution
or waste natural resources? 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 pecent 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 gas by the year 2015

* Tape transcript

Good evening, Welcome to our science for Fund Program. This week, we've received a lot
of questions asking about life on the moon. We've talked to some experts and this is what
we've found out. There is no water or air on the moon. It is all silent because there is no
air .Ofcourse there is no music, no sounds. There are no rivers and lakes. At night , it is
very cold. The temperature goes down to 151oC below zero. But During the day the
temperature rises to 100oC above zero.

There are great round holes on the moon. They look like big lakes. They are called craters.
There are more than 30,000 craters on the moon. There are also high mountains . The
highest mountains on the moon are about 26,000feet or 8,000 meters high.

And here is something very interesting to know: on the moon you weigh one six of what
you weigh on the earth. If you weigh 50 kilos, on the moon you will weigh a little more
than 8 kilos. You will be able to jump very high, even higher than an Olympic Champion.
You can take very long steps as well. And… May be you won't sleep very well because one

day on the moon lasts for two weeks.

So, is there life on the moon? I'll leave the question for you answer yourself
V. Post- listening:

* Leave out:If you weigh 50 kilos, on the moon you will weigh a little more than 8 kilos.
-> Let ss read and recognize the kind of the sentence

I'm writing to you about the pollution made by the factory near my school. They produce so
much smoke that we can't breathe. They also make the river dirty with chemical waste. I
suggest that local authorities should make them stop their polluting activities.

I look forward to seeing good response from you
Sincerely,

Congregation. This house was built in 1855 and still keeps many precious objects that
belonged to the Chinese community of Hoi An. Another attractive address to tourists is Tan
Ky House. Which was constructed nearby two centuries ago as ahouse of a Vietnamese

Every day on radio, on TV, and in the newspapers, 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
anywhere, 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 every day. We must find a good solution that makes the world a better place to live

Krakatoa lay in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra. The native people were going
about their daily tasks, giving little thought to the mountain which towered above their
island home. Almost without warning, there came a terrific explosion, probably the most

dust. Huge masses of lava were thrown in every direction
