Dear Mai,
I’m very pleased that we’re going to be pen pals. I’ll tell you a little about myself, and you can do
the same when you write to me.
I live in an area of London called Maida Vale. It’s quite near the centre, but there are parks nearby
where I often take my dog, Mickey, for a walk. I live with my parents and my younger brother, Paul.
My father works for the post office and my mother has a part-time job as a nurse.
I go to the local comprehensive school, where I have a lot of friends. I like most subjects, but not all
of them! In the evening I sometimes visit friends or stay at home and listen to music, and at the
weekends I like going swimming or horse-riding.
At the moment I’m working very hard because I have exams soon, so I’m spending a lot of time in
the library.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you. Write soon!
Best wishes,
Mary

C. READING
Read the passage, then answer the questions below (2.5pts)
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 the Sun.
At present, most of our electricity comes from the use of coal and gas, oid or nuclear power.
This power could be provided by the Sun. One percent 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 roofs 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.

Questions:
1. Is solar energy an efficient source of power?
2. Where are the solar panels placed?
3. How long can the solar energy be stored?
4. When will cars use solar power instead of gas in Sweden?
5. Is the solar energy used in Vietnam now?
