of time in the workshop. Now he is testing a model of one of the new bridges. He enjoys it a lot, because
he has learned a lot of new things.

Just a few years ago, this place was called Dumptown. The people living here didn’t think much about
where waste went when they threw it out. Things that could be reused or recycled were thrown in the
trash, because nobody believed recycling made a difference. And, eventually, that became a very big
problem.
The garbage heap grew and began to smell. Sometimes it caught fire, and making it hard for
everyone to breathe. Dumptowners knew they had to fix it.
They learned to reduce the amount of waste they threw them away. For example, they learned to reuse
things—like washing out empty jars in - stead of throwing them away. And, they learned to recycle. They
set up bins around town to collect glass, paper, and other things, then made into new products.
B. rubbish
C. compost
D. a & b
A. the trash
C. Dumptowners

On April 30, 2018 the Pu’u ‘O’o crater on Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano, suddenly collapsed. It was the

swimming pools’ worth of lava that transformed the landscape and ultimately destroyed 700 homes.
A volcanic eruption occurs when hot materials from the Earth's interior are thrown out of a volcano.
Some eruptions are terrible explosions that throw out huge amounts of rock and volcanic ash and can kill
many people. Some are quiet outflows of hot lava. Several more complex types of volcanic eruptions
have been described by volcanologists. These are often named after famous volcanoes where that type
of eruption has been seen. Some volcanoes may show only one type of eruption during a period of
activity, while others may show a range of types in a series.

Almost a hundred thousand people were killed and half a million homes destroyed as a result of an
earthquake in Tokyo in 1923. The earthquake began a minute before noon when the habitants of Tokyo
were cooking their midday meals. Thousands of stoves were overturned as soon as the earth began to
shake. As a result, small fires broke out everywhere and quickly spread. The fire engines were
prevented from going to help because many of the roads had cracked open. It was impossible to use
fire-fighting equipment as most of the water pipes had burst. Consequently, over ninety percent of the
damage was caused by fire rather than by the collapse of buildings.

Scotland: The Land of Legends
If we travel all over Scotland, we can see that it consists of three main parts: Lowlands, Uplands and
Highlands with their Grampian Mountains, where the tallest mountain peak, Ben Nevis, is located.
You are sure to enjoy the beauty of the Scottish varied landscape: the hills covered with purple heather,
its beautiful lakes (here they are called lochs), its green and narrow valleys.
The biggest and the most beautiful lake in Scotland is Loch Lomond, but the most famous one is Loch
Ness with its mysterious monster Nessie. Nessie sometimes appears to scare the tourist but only in fine
weather!
But what can be more curious and attractive for tourist than a man in the kilt, playing the bagpipes? The
Celts of Scotland made the chequered pattern of tartan - the national dress of the country. The earliest
Scots formed themselves into clans (family groups) and the tartan became a symbol of the sense
of kinship. There are about 300 different clans in Scotland, and each has its own colour and pattern of
tartan together with the motto.
Scotland is a land of many famous people: writer and poets, scientist and philosophers, such as Robert
Burns, Arthur Conan Doyle, Alexander Graham Hell, or Alexander Fleming.

Saving the Environment: One Home at a Time
Pollution can be seen not only throughout the world, but also in our own homes. It comes from
household chemicals, the amount of water people use and the waste people produce and throw away.
What can be done to stop this pollution? Surprisingly, a person can help save the environment by doing
simple things.
First, we need to recycle, which allows products to be used over and over again. Recycling can also
reduce the number of trees cut down to produce paper products. It takes very little effort. It is not hard
to place plastic and glass bottles, aluminum cans and paper in a bin. Anyone can do it.
Second, we need to watch the amount of water used in the home. It can be conserved by taking short
shower instead of baths, repairing leaky faucets, using the dishwasher or washing machine only when
fully loaded, or simply turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth.
Third, we need to reduce waste. We need to recycle whenever possible, but should also try to use this
waste effectively. For example, grass clippings and food scraps can be made into compost for plants. The
average person produces 4.3 pounds of waste every day, but we can reduce that amount by recycling
and reusing.
If we do our part in our own homes, we can help keep the planet from becoming more polluted.
28. In order to save water, we can do all of the following things except_____________.
C. fully use the washing machine D. turn the faucet off while brushing your teeth
C. waste can be recycled and reused D. an average man produces compost for plants

Alaska is perhaps the most amazing state in the USA. It has coaslines facing both the Arctic Ocean and
the Pacific Ocean. This state has an incredible three million lakes. That’s four lakes per person living
there. Many cities in Alaska cannot be reached by road, sea, or river. The only way to get in and out is by
air, on foot, or by dogsled. That’s why Alaska has the busiest sea airport in the world, Lake Hood
Seaplane Base. Nearly two hundred floatplanes take off and land on the water of this airport every day.
It’s really a fun scene to watch. Alaska is called the Land of Midnight Sun because in summer, the sun
does not set for nearly three months. But in winter the sun stays almost unseen. All Alaskans take special
pride in their beautiful and unique state.
