II. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer.
The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many
communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce
electricity. Converting waste products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of
waste.
Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale and coal tars.
But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to
harness - power with giant windmills. Geothermal power, heat from the earth, is also being
tested.
Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams
and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in
the United States, but today it supplies only four percent. The oceans are another potential
source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents,
tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of the
temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.
1. Which is the best title of the passage?
A. Efficient Ways of Disposing of Waste B. The Use of Water Productions for
Energy
C. The Search for Alternative Sources of Energy D. New Discoveries in Geothermal Power
2. In the second paragraph, the phrase “synthetic fuels” could best be replaced by which of
the following?
A. Biological fuels B. Low burning fuels C. Fast burning fuels D. Artificial
made fuels
3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as an alternative source of
energy?
A. Burning of garbage B. Geothermal power C. Synthetic fuels
D. Electricity
4. According to the author, the impracticability of using coal, oil shale and coal tars as
sources of energy is due to ___________ .
A. their being time consuming B. their being money consuming

C. the scarcity of sources D. the lack of technology their being
money consuming
5. The word “it” in the last paragrph refers to ____.
A. alternative source B. the United States C. hydroelectric power D. Electricity
6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Hydroelectric power will be the main source of energy
B. Synthetic fuels will be the principal source of alternative energy
C. Alternative energy will come from a variety of sources
D. All alterenative production of energy will be delivered from water.

IV. In the following text, six sentences or parts of sentences have been removed. Above
the extract you will find the six removed sentences PLUS one sentence which doesn't fit.
Choose from the sentences (A-G) the one which fits each gap (1-6). Remember, there is
one extra sentence you do not need to use. Write the correct letter in the box.
Choose from the following sentences to fill the spaces in the text. There is ONE extra.
A. Using a microwave for cooking a large food mass is difficult due to limited penetration of
microwaves.
B. This can be overcome by leaving the food to stand for a few minutes when cooking is
completed.

C. It is advised that the water should be poured slowly into another container that already
contains the powder.
D. In this way, buying a microwave oven with a turntable ensure the food is cooked
throughout.
E. Conversely the microwaves do not heat glass, ceramic and plastic containers.
F. If the microwaves are not absorbed inside the oven, the oven can be damaged by
electrical arcs and overheating of the microwave source.
G. When water in that state is disturbed, it can suddenly and unexpectedly boil violently.
MICROWAVING
Microwaving is a method of cooking where food is bombarded by microwaves, usually
within an appliance called a microwave oven which excite the water, fat and sugar
molecules, thereby heating (cooking) both the outside and center of the food at the same
time. (1)…………………
(A common myth is that a microwave oven cooks from the center of the food outward. This
appears to happen because heat generated at the surface escapes more readily from the
surface of the food into the surrounding air.) One advantage of microwaving is that small
amounts of food can be heated very quickly, making it useful for reheating leftovers.
The disadvantage is that food which is microwaved does not undergo some of the chemical
reactions, such as browning, which makes the food visually attractive. Primitive microwave
ovens often do not cook evenly, leading to a concern that bacteria easily killed by more
traditional cooking methods may survive the quick cooking time in "cold spots", though the
food item as a whole is cooked to a safe average temperature. (2) ……
Some high-end microwave ovens are combined with a convection oven which basically
cook the food using microwave and hot air simultaneously to achieve both the fast cooking
time and browning effect.
(3) …………………
However microwave ovens are used in some fast food chains and special microwave bags
are available for cooking fowl or large joints of meat.
Professional chefs generally recommend using microwaves for a limited set of tasks,
including: melting fats (such as butter) and chocolate, cooking grains like oatmeal and grits,
cooking rice, thawing frozen meats and vegetables before cooking by other methods and
quickly reheating already-cooked foods.
Using a microwave to boil water is potentially dangerous, due to superheating. In a
microwave, water can be raised quickly to a temperature above the boiling point before
major bubbles form, especially if it is purified and in a very clean glass vessel. (4)
…………………
This effect is rare, even for scientists who try to deliberately recreate it, and any seed
whatsoever for boiling is likely to prevent the problem. Boiling water with, for instance, a
teabag already in it will prevent any dangers by providing a seed, as will using a mug that is
not perfectly clean.

The risk greatly increases when water has already been boiled once in the same container.
This situation can occur if the user of the oven boiled the water once, forgot about it, then
came back later to boil it again. The first time the water boils, the seed bubbles
(microscopic bubbles of air around which larger steam bubbles grow) are used up and
largely eliminated from the water as it cools down. When the water is heated again, the lack
of seed bubbles causes superheating, and a risk of a steam explosion when the water's
surface is disturbed.
Placing something in the water before heating can mostly alleviate this risk. If you are
planning to mix something with the water, say tea or hot chocolate, adding it before heating
will insure that the water boils. Otherwise, placing a wood object, for instance a chopstick,
in the water before heating will also work.
Care should be taken when removing heated water from a microwave. Make sure that the
hands are protected from possible liquid boil-over, place the container on a level, heat-
proof surface and stir liquid with a warm spoon. Also, never add powdered substances
(such as instant coffee or cocoa mix) to the container taken from the microwave, due to the
addition of all those seed bubbles and the potential for violent, spontaneous boiling. (5)
…………………
Metal objects, such as metal utensils, in a microwave oven can lead to dangerous situations.
Metals do not absorb microwaves effectively. Instead, metals reflect microwaves, thereby
preventing the latter from reaching the food. (6) …………………
Thin metal layers, such as metal foil and mugs with metal trim can melt or burn due to the
strong electrical currents that are generated in metal objects. However, small solid metal
objects, such as spoons, in combination with a large amount of absorbing food or liquid,
normally do not lead to problems.

For 3,000 years, Mongolians have lived in the rural areas, adopting a pastoral way of life, moving in the
search of new pastures. They depend largely on their livestock for a living and sustain themselves with what
they can get from the land. Today, approximately half of Mongolia’s population is still roaming the vast plains
living in the ger and moving their campings several timesa year. Nomadic life thrives in summer and survives
in winter. When temperatures are warm, they work hard on their farms to get milk and make airag, consuming
meat from their sheeps and goats. Once winter comes, temperatures dip extremely low and they stay indoors
and survive on horse meat.
With the rise of technology, changes in the Mongolian nomadic lifestyle are almost inevitable. While they
still lead their lifestyle as pastoral herders, many use motorbikes to herd cattle and horses. To move their
homes, trucks have taken the place of ox carts. Solar panels are also becoming an addition to the ger, giving
them access to electricity without being confined to one place. The nomads use solar energy to power television
sets and mobile phones.
1. Mongolians regularly move from place to place in order to _________.
a.look for food for their family b. find pastures for their livestock
c. herd their cattle and horses d. sell their animals and farm products
2. How many Mongolians still live a traditional nomadic life?
a.Close to 40 percent b. More than 50 percent
c. About 50 percent d. Approximately 60 percent
3. What is a ger?
a.A portable, round tent b. A thatched house
c. A circular house made of snow d. A wooden hut
4. What is the Mongolian’s main food in winter?
a.airag b. goat meat c. sheep meat d. horse meat
5. Today, Mongolian nomads _________.
a.don’t lead their lifestyle as herders any more
b.use ox carts to move their homes
c.use solar energy to power electronic devices
d.have the advantage of urban life
6. Which of the followings is NOT true about Mongolian nomads?
a.They live in the countryside.
b.They live by and for their livestock.
c.They work hard in winter when the temperature dip very low.

In Britain, natural gas is the most popular fuel for heating homes, and for cooking. It is piped all over the country from the gas fields below the North sea. Natural gas is used chiefly as a direct source of energy, although it is also used in the chemical industry. At the moment, the supply is plentiful, but it will be running short by the end of the century, and it will run out during the 21st century unless new supplies are found. We could do without natural gas, as coal gas can be used as...

MICROWAVING
Microwaving is a method of cooking where food is bombarded by microwaves, usually
within an appliance called a microwave oven which excite the water, fat and sugar
molecules, thereby heating (cooking) both the outside and center of the food at the same
time. (1)…………………
(A common myth is that a microwave oven cooks from the center of the food outward. This
appears to happen because heat generated at the surface escapes more readily from the
surface of the food into the surrounding air.) One advantage of microwaving is that small
amounts of food can be heated very quickly, making it useful for reheating leftovers.
The disadvantage is that food which is microwaved does not undergo some of the chemical
reactions, such as browning, which makes the food visually attractive. Primitive microwave
ovens often do not cook evenly, leading to a concern that bacteria easily killed by more
traditional cooking methods may survive the quick cooking time in &quot;cold spots&quot;, though the
food item as a whole is cooked to a safe average temperature. (2) ……
Some high-end microwave ovens are combined with a convection oven which basically
cook the food using microwave and hot air simultaneously to achieve both the fast cooking
time and browning effect.
(3) …………………
However microwave ovens are used in some fast food chains and special microwave bags
are available for cooking fowl or large joints of meat.
Professional chefs generally recommend using microwaves for a limited set of tasks,
including: melting fats (such as butter) and chocolate, cooking grains like oatmeal and grits,
cooking rice, thawing frozen meats and vegetables before cooking by other methods and
quickly reheating already-cooked foods.
Using a microwave to boil water is potentially dangerous, due to superheating. In a
microwave, water can be raised quickly to a temperature above the boiling point before
major bubbles form, especially if it is purified and in a very clean glass vessel. (4)
…………………
This effect is rare, even for scientists who try to deliberately recreate it, and any seed
whatsoever for boiling is likely to prevent the problem. Boiling water with, for instance, a
teabag already in it will prevent any dangers by providing a seed, as will using a mug that is
not perfectly clean.

The risk greatly increases when water has already been boiled once in the same container.
This situation can occur if the user of the oven boiled the water once, forgot about it, then
came back later to boil it again. The first time the water boils, the seed bubbles
(microscopic bubbles of air around which larger steam bubbles grow) are used up and
largely eliminated from the water as it cools down. When the water is heated again, the lack
of seed bubbles causes superheating, and a risk of a steam explosion when the water&#39;s
surface is disturbed.
Placing something in the water before heating can mostly alleviate this risk. If you are
planning to mix something with the water, say tea or hot chocolate, adding it before heating
will insure that the water boils. Otherwise, placing a wood object, for instance a chopstick,
in the water before heating will also work.
Care should be taken when removing heated water from a microwave. Make sure that the
hands are protected from possible liquid boil-over, place the container on a level, heat-
proof surface and stir liquid with a warm spoon. Also, never add powdered substances
(such as instant coffee or cocoa mix) to the container taken from the microwave, due to the
addition of all those seed bubbles and the potential for violent, spontaneous boiling. (5)
…………………
Metal objects, such as metal utensils, in a microwave oven can lead to dangerous situations.
Metals do not absorb microwaves effectively. Instead, metals reflect microwaves, thereby
preventing the latter from reaching the food. (6) …………………
Thin metal layers, such as metal foil and mugs with metal trim can melt or burn due to the
strong electrical currents that are generated in metal objects. However, small solid metal
objects, such as spoons, in combination with a large amount of absorbing food or liquid,
normally do not lead to problems.
