When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news.
Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly
anybody pays heed to them.
However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was
amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived
thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild
cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than
300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals.
Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task.
They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but earned their painting
materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in
the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive
action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because
the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images
inside. Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have
destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely
recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years
after it was discovered.

One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of
clean water. Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. However, acid rain,
industrial pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes,
reservoirs and even entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia
is one of the largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants,
including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. Yet, they are
being destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial effluent which pour into the lake
every day. Even though laws have been made, the government does not have the power
to enforce them. Most industries simply ignore the regulations. The Mediterranean Sea
occupies 1% of the world’s water surface, but it is the dumping ground for 50% of all
marine pollution. Almost 16 countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles off
shore.
Water is free to everyone. A few years ago, people thought that the supply of clean
water in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by
pollution and sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to respect
this precious source. We should do something now.

Travel is something which people do every day. It may be a trip to school, university
or to work. Travelling can often take a long time, especially when great distances need to
be covered. People often enjoy travelling abroad for holidays. But for some people
travelling is not fun at all. Some people suffer from travel sickness. This means that they
31
will become very unwell each time they travel.
Travelling can be either affordable or costly. It often depends on how far you want to
travel and the choice of transport.
 Using a bicycle will not cost anything as you power it by using your legs. However, the
use of a bicycle can be hard work and can take a lot of time to travel long distances.
 Cars and motorcycles are faster modes of transport, but are more expensive to use as
gasoline is needed for them to work. It can usually be assumed that the longer you wish
to travel, the more expensive and time consuming it will be.
 The use of a plane is necessary for people wanting to travel very long distances. A pilot
will fly a plane from an airport for many thousands of miles to take people to places far
away. Although traffic is rarely a problem for airplanes, it can take a lot of preparation to
travel by plane.
 A train is another mode of transport which is ideal for travelling long distances within
the same country, or between countries which are connected by land. A train driver will
stop at train stations on route to allow passengers wishing to proceed to the scheduled
destination to board the train.
 A number of destinations can be travelled to by using the sea. People often depart from
a harbour in a ferry which is driven by a captain. If the journey is a long distance, people
may choose to sleep on the ferry while they wait to arrive at their destination. Some
people choose to go on a cruise for their holiday, which would involve stopping at many
different city ports for a short amount of time.
 People who need to travel short distances may choose not to use any transport at all.
People often rely on their legs to take them to places nearby.
36. Why do some people not enjoy travelling?
A. They find it a waste of time B. It isn’t comfortable
C. It’s expensive D. They have trouble with their health

Ten-day Chinese Traffic Jam (24th August, 2010)
Motorists in China are experiencing a traffic jam from hell. Thousands of drivers
have been stuck in their cars for ten days on the Beijing-Tibet Expressway just outside
the Chinese capital. The gridlock started on August 14 th when roadworks began. The bad

news is that the chaos will continue for another month. The tailbacks stretch back for
100km. The situation has been made worse by dozens of cars breaking down or
overheating. Around 400 traffic police have been assigned to patrol the jam to make sure
tensions don’t rise too far. The horrendous snarl-up is the result of the explosion in the
number of cars on Chinese roads. As China becomes wealthier, more people are buying
cars, thus causing more traffic problems.
Drivers trapped in the traffic jam know they have to be patient and sit for long hours
in their cars. There are no showers for them to use and if they need to use a toilet, they
have to lock their car and wander off to the nearest café. There are many complaints of
local people taking advantage of the stranded motorists by charging them more than
double prices for drinks and snacks. People are keeping themselves busy by playing cards
or board games. Some have reported feeling homesick. One truck driver, Juang Shao
expressed his frustration over the situation: “I’ve missed my daughter’s birthday and the
food in my truck has probably turned into soup,” he said. He said he was worried his
truck could be stuck in the traffic forever.

Along with jogging and swimming, cycling is one of the best all-round forms of
exercise. It can help to increase your strength and energy, giving you more efficient
muscles and a stronger heart. But increasing your strength is not the only advantage of
cycling. Because you’re not carrying the weight of your body on your feet, it’s a good
form of exercise for people with painful feet or backs. However, with all forms of
exercise it’s important to start slowly and build up gently. Doing too much too quickly
can damage muscles that aren’t used to working. If you have any doubts about taking up
cycling for health reasons, talk to your doctor and ask for his/her advice.
Ideally you should be cycling at least two or three times a week. For the exercise
to be doing you good, you should get a little out of breath. Don’t worry that if you begin
to lose your breath, it could be dangerous and there must be something wrong with your
heart. This is simply not true; shortness of breath shows that the exercise is having the
right effect. However, if you find you are in pain then you should stop and take a rest.

Plastic is a material we use every day. The first plastics were made more than 100
years ago from parts of plants. Plastics are now made from oil, coal and natural gas. We
are using up these things so fast that the Earth’s supplies may run out. Because of this,
scientists are investigating new ideas for making plastics from plants such as sweet
potato, bamboo and flax.
Things made from plastic can be useful for people but bad for the planet. Some
plastics can last for a long time without wearing out, and can be difficult to get rid of
when they are not needed. They can remain in rubbish dumps for hundreds of years.
Recycling is a good way to solve the problems of unwanted plastics. Recycled waste
materials can be used again to make new products. This can be difficult as different types
of plastic need to be recycled in different ways. Some kinds of plastics can be melted
57
down and used to make new things such as bags and bottles. Others can be made into
fibres for clothing.
Another way to protect the environment is to use canvas bags for shopping instead of
plastic ones. A lot of plastic objects can also be reused. Plastic bottles can be refilled
many times, rather than thrown away once they are empty. Unwanted plastic goods such
as CDs and toys can be sold or given away to charity shops.

The South American Amazon Rainforest is often called the botanical lungs of the
planet. Covering more than five-and-a-half million square kilometers, it additionally
provides a natural habitat for over half of the Earth’s most significant species of plants
and animals in an area that is a little larger than half of the world’s remaining rainforest.
Unfortunately, over the last four decades, this huge lush expanse has been ever more
endangered by deforestation. During the 1960s and up to the 1990s, thousands of trees
were felled, but what farmers did not realise is that the topsoil, when denuded of trees, is
67
only considered cultivable for a short period of time.
This means the farmers have to clear more and more land to continue running a
profitable and productive business. Despite the reduction in the number of trees being
felled, the forest is still slowly disappearing, diminishing the biodiversity of the area and
having a terrible global impact because fewer trees means it has less capacity to clean the
air we breathe.

Over the past 600 years English has evolved from a language of few speakers to the
dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged
around 1350, after having combined many elements of French that were introduced
following the Norman invasion of 1066. Until the 1600s, English was for the most part,
spoken only in England and had not expanded even as far as Wales. Scotland, or Ireland.
However, during the course of the next two centuries. English began missionary work.
Thus, small enclaves or English speakers became established and grew in various parts of
the world. As these communities expanded, English gradually became the primary
language of international business, banking, and diplomacy.
Currently, about 80% of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in
English: Two- thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main
language of technology, advertising, media, international airport, and air traffic
controllers. Today, there are more than 700 million English users in the world and over
half of these are non-native speakers, forming the largest number of non-native users than
any other language in the world.

A. Before 1600 B. Around 1350 C. After 1600 D. In 1060

Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the
different generations’ online habits couldn’t be more different.
Sheila, aged 59, says, “I join to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter
posts videos and photos of them. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing than
waiting for letters and photos in the post.”
Ironically, Sheila’s grandchildren are less likely to use Facebook themselves.
Children under 17 in the UK are leaving it - only 2.2 million users are under 17 - but
they’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone.
“It’s my alarm clock so I have to,” she says. “I look at it before I go to sleep and as soon
as I wake up.”
Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on
their phones at home that they are missing out on spending time with their friends in real
life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn’t
heard from in forty years. “We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,” she
says. “It’s changed my social life completely.
Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or
laptop constantly and was always connected and I felt like I was always working,” he
says. “HOW could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a
screen myself?” So, in the evenings and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his
smartphone and puts it into an old-style mobile phone that can only make calls and send
text messages. “I’m not completely cut off from the world in case of emergencies, but the
important thing is I’m setting a good example to my kids and spending more quality time
78
with them.”

The Eiffel Tower is a very famous tower in Paris, France. It was named after the
engineer who designed it, Alexandre Eiffel. The tower was built in 1889.
Alexandre Eiffel was asked to build the tower when France decided to have a big
fair to exhibit its goods and wares. The tower was located in the middle of the fair as a
special attraction. When the structure first started to take shape, the people of France did
not like it. They thought it looked like a giant skeleton and was not attractive at all.
However, when the tower was finally completed and lighted up at night, the people
quickly changed their minds. It was an enchanting sight and now looked like a tower
made of lace.
The Eiffel Tower is sometimes considered one of the seven wonders of the modern
world. It is 300 meters high and people can take an elevator all the way to the top. From
the tower, they can get a marvelous view of the city and the River Seine which runs
through it.

Tens of thousands of earthquakes happen every year. The vast majority are so
small that only scientific instruments can perceive them. Others are powerful enough that
people can feel them, yet they cause little harm or damage. More powerful earthquakes,
however, can cause buildings, bridges, and other structures to collapse. They may
additionally injure and kill thousands of people and might even cause the land to change
its appearance.
Since most of the Earth's surface is water, numerous earthquakes happen beneath
the planet's oceans. Underwater earthquakes cause the seafloor to move. This results in
the displacement of water in the ocean. When this occurs, a tsunami may form. This is a
wave that forms on the surface and moves in all directions from the place where the
earthquake happened. A tsunami moves extremely quickly and can travel thousands of
kilometres. As it approaches land, the water near the coast gets sucked out to sea. This
causes the tsunamis to increase in height. Minutes later, the tsunami arrives. A large
tsunami - one more than ten metres in height - can travel far inland. As it does that, it can
flood the land, destroy human settlements, and kill large numbers of people.

The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has issued a warning about the future of the
world's natural World Heritage sites. It says half of the sites are at risk from different
industries. The WWF warned that harmful industrial activities such as mining or drilling
for oil are endangering the future of 114 of 229 sites. Other factors adding to the risk
include illegal logging and unsustainable water use. All of these are in addition to the
damage being done by climate change. The WWF says the sites affected include
Australia's Great Barrier Reef, the Grand Canyon National Park in the USA, and China's
Sichuan Giant Panda Sanctuaries, which are home to more than 30 per cent of the world's
endangered pandas.
The director of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre said it was up to everyone to
protect these sites. She said: "World Heritage is humankind's common heritage, and the
responsibility for its conservation is shared by everyone." She welcomed government
efforts at reducing what they take from the Earth. However, the WWF said that more
than 11 million people worldwide rely on World Heritage sites for food, water, shelter
jobs and medicine, and that non-stop development could harm livelihoods as well as the
environment.

A theme park in France has started a new and environmentally-friendly way of
dealing with litter. It has trained six "intelligent" rooks to pick up rubbish. Rooks are
members of the crow family. The birds will work at the Puy du Fou theme park in west
France. They have been trained to pick up cigarette ends, paper and other things thrown
on the ground. The birds pick up the litter and put it into a special trash can. This delivers
bird food as a reward. The more litter the birds put in the trash can, the more food they
get.
The head of the theme park explained why it is using the crows. He said there
were several reasons. He said: "The goal is not just to clean up ... but also to demonstrate
that nature itself can teach US to take care of the environment." Crows are very sociable
and intelligent birds. They may be as smart as a seven-year-old child. The theme park
head said: "In an affectionate, supportive atmosphere, they like to communicate with
humans and establish a relationship through play." The crows are quick workers. They
can fill a bucket with rubbish in nearly 45 minutes.

Jane Addams - the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize in 1931 -

Many foreign people think that Americans usually eat hamburgers. But the truth is
that many people in the US have become vegetarians, who eat little or no meat. Most
Americans, however, like many different kinds of food. They especially like exotic foods,
and restaurants that serve French, Arabic, Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, and African
cuisine are among their favourites.
113
Americans also love to cook. And they don't always make simple things. Some of
them are really good cooks, and they enjoy preparing fine meals. They spend thousands
of dollars each year on cookbooks and cooking utensils to use in their kitchens. Like
people in many countries, people in the US love to entertain, so they often invite people
to dinner.
When guests arrive, they find a beautiful table with candles and fine china,
because a meal is more appetizing when it is served in pleasant surroundings. When
guests sit down to eat, they eat heartily, and when it is time to clear the table, they feel
good. For many Americans, food that is cooked at home is most scrumptious of all.

In Britain people celebrate Harvest Festival by singing, praying, and decorating
churches with baskets of fruit and food, usually during the month of September. Harvest
Festival reminds Christians of all the good things God gives them. This makes them want
to share with others who are not so fortunate. In schools and in churches, people bring
food from home to a Harvest Festival Service. After the service, the food that has been
put on display is usually made into parcels and given to people in need.
In early times, Harvest Festival used to be celebrated at the beginning of the
harvest season on 1 August and was called Lammas, meaning "loaf Mass". Farmers made
loaves of bread from the new wheat crop and gave them to their local church. They were
used as the Communion bread during a special mass thanking God for the harvest. The
end of the harvest was celebrated with a big meal called a Harvest Supper. The "Lord of
the Harvest" sat at the head of the table. A goose stuffed with apples was eaten along with
a variety of vegetables. Goose Fairs were and still are held in English towns today.

English learners often worry about making mistakes, but mistakes are an important
part of learning a language! Everyone makes mistakes - from beginners to advanced
learners, and native English speakers. In order to learn English well, it is necessary to
overcome the fear of making mistakes. If the primary goal of language use is
communication, then mistakes are secondary considerations that may be dealt with
gradually as awareness of those mistakes increases. On the other hand, students should
not ignore their mistakes. English learners may observe how native speakers express
themselves, and how native expressions differ from the way they might say them. For
example, a Spanish speaker who has been saying "I do it" to express willingness to do
something in the immediate future, could, by communicating with native speakers of
English, observe that native speakers actually say "I'll do it". This difference can serve as
a basis for the student to change his way of using the present tense in English. But a
student who is unwilling to communicate in the first place would lose this opportunity to
learn by trial and error.
26. English learners can reduce the number of their mistakes by ____________.
A. asking native speakers for explanations
124
B. reading good books in the foreign language
C. comparing their speech with that of native speakers
D. speaking without regard to native speakers

A. not used to express a desire to do something in the immediate future
B. used with some verbs but not with others to express future intention
C. basically the same in English as it is in Spanish
D. not the most difficult problem for foreign students
29. Foreign language students who do not communicate with native speakers will NOT
____________.
A. learn very much about the foreign society
B. learn about the history about making mistakes
C. have to worry about making mistakes
D. take advantage of available language
30. The author's opinion about the function of mistakes in English learning is that
____________.
A. mistakes are not important in the process of learning a language

Humans have dreamed of spaceflight since ancient times. The Chinese used
rockets for ceremonial and military purposes centuries ago, but in the second half of the
20th century, the first rockets were developed to open space to human exploration.
The earliest practical work on rocket engines designed for spaceflight occurred
simultaneously during the early 20th century in three countries: in Russia, by Konstantin
Tsiolkovski; in the United States, by Robert Goddard; and in Germany, by Hermann
Oberth.
The first U.S. satellite, Explorer 1, went into orbit on January 31,1958. In 1961,
Alan Shepard became the first American to fly into space. On February 20,1962, John
Glenn's historic flight made him the first American to orbit Earth.
"Landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth within a decade"
was a national goal set by President John F. Kennedy in 1961. On July 20,1969, Neil
Armstrong took "a giant step for mankind" as he stepped onto the moon. Six Apollo
missions were made to explore the moon between 1969 and 1972.
By the early 1970s orbiting communications and navigation satellites were in
everyday use, and the Mariner spacecraft was orbiting and mapping the surface of Mars.
By the end of the decade, the Voyager spacecraft sent back detailed images of Jupiter and
Saturn, their rings, and their moons.
