Switch to Energy First

Energy First is one of the UK’s most innovative energy suppliers. We were the first energy supplier in
the country to offer smart meters free of charge to our customers. These computerized meters submit
automatic electricity readings for once an hour and once daily for gas. This information goes directly

Questions 44 - 47 refer to the following report

The most familiar speleothems (from the Greek word spelaion for the cave and thema for deposit), the
decorative dripstone features found in caves, are stalactites and stalagmites. Stalactites hang
downward from the ceiling of the cave and are formed as drop after drop of water slowly trickles
through crack on the cave roof. Stalagmites grow upward from the floor of the cave, generally as a
result of water dripping from an overhead stalactite. A column forms when a stalactite and a
stalagmite grow until they join. A “curtain” or “drapery” begins to form on an inclined ceiling when
drops of water trickle along a slope.
Natural openings on the surface that lead to caves are called sinkholes. or swallow holes. Streams
sometimes disappear down these holes and flow through the cavern. Rivers may flow from one
mountain to another through a series of caves . Some caverns have sinkholes in their floors. Water
often builds up a rim of dripstone around the edge of the hole. Dripping water often contains
dissolved minerals as well as acid. These minerals too will be deposited; and they may give rich
coloring to the deposits. If minerals in the water change, layers of different colors may be formed.
