Exercise 5: Read and choose the correct answers.
The Eiffel Tower is a very famous tower in Paris, France. It was named after the engineer
who designed and built 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 to be located in the middle of the fair as a special
attraction. So, Eiffel designed the tower and soon began to build it, using iron beams and bolts.
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 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. Besides the
elevator, there are steps which lead all the way up the tower. For those who are energetic, they
can use these to climb up. It is very windy at the top of the tower and can be very cold at times
because it is only built by iron beams. There are no walls to keep the wind out.
1. The Eiffel Tower got its name ___________.
A. from its location B. from its designer
C. from the fair D. from Paris
2. The tower is ___________now.
A. more than 100 years old B. less than 100 years old
C. 100 years old exactly D. hundreds of years old
3.
B. They did
C. They were haunted by it. D. They thought it was very ugly.
4. Why did they change their minds in the end?
A. It turned out to be very safe. B. They liked lace.
C. It turned out to be beautiful. D. The design was changed.
5. What can we see from the tower?
A. Paris B. A tower of lace
C. Iron beams D. A giant skeleton

(Answer may vary).
Robots have lots of advantages. Firstly, they can go to the unknown places where the
human may be crushed. Secondly, they can work at places 24/7 without food or rest. Next, they
do not get bored. Then, they can work faster and more accurately than human. Finally,
basically they do not be affected by environmental factors such as climate and temperature.
However, they have lots of disadvantages too. Firstly, they're quite expensive. Secondly, as
robots work instead of people, people will lose their jobs. Next, robots use power to work, so
the amount of power used will increase. Then, it costs much in repair and maintenance a robot.
Lastly, unlike human, robots can do repetitive work but not get any experience.

Watching television is one of the activities I like to do in my spare time. I enjoy watching
cartoons on Saturday mornings and sports programs on Sunday afternoons. I also watch
television during the week after I have finished all of my school work. At night, I especially
like to watch movies and situational comedies. If I have a lot of homework, I try to arrange my
schedule so that I can watch at least one of my favorite shows. Watching television is not the
only activity that I do in my spare time. My other favorite activities are making paper houses
and going swimming with my friends. However, when I have spare time, I spend more time
watching television than any other activities. Watching television can help me not only to relax
but also build me a huge knowledge of the open world.

My most favorite game is football. It is a world famous game.
Football is such a popular game that it is played even in the most remote corner of my
country. People walk long distances to watch a football match. Even old people enjoy watching
this game.
To play this most interesting, I go to the field near my house where my friends wait for me
every late afternoon. My friends also love this game very much. We play until dark.
But it is a very hard game. It requires a lot of strength to kick the ball. They must also be
skillful in controlling the ball. All these make the game a difficult game indeed. Playing
football however helps us to be healthy and active.
I shall always love this game.

THE HEART OF THE BIG APPLE
Times Square is an attraction that could only be found in the modern world.
As you walk in New York City towards Times Square, the streets become even more
packed with pedestrians. You walk by clean, modern stores with expensive clothes and shoe
stores filled with the newest styles of running shoe. Cheap fast-food restaurants are noisy and
full of customers. As you get closer, more and more people hold cameras and look up at the tall
buildings around them, preparing to see the spectacle of Times Square.
TRANSCRIPT 89
enormous crowds gather in Times Square. As people count-down to midnight together, a
gigantic ball made of crystal and lights descends along a pole. When midnight strikes, the ball
reaches the bottom, and the crowds hug and kiss and cheer, thinking of the year that has passed
and the year to come. It is a celebration that has become famous all over the world, and it is one
of the traditions that keep New York in touch with its past.

DISAPPEARING ACTS
At the moment, the world is losing species of wildlife almost every day. The two main
causes of this decline are the destruction of their habitants and overpopulation by human
beings.
Every minute of the day, 20 hectares of tropical rainforest are cut down or burned.
Hundreds of wild species insects and plants are lost as a result. If it goes on, rainforests
ate and
environment stable. If they are destroyed, mankind will suffer as well as wildlife.
As cities grow and industry develops around them, pollution becomes another problem for
wildlife. Friends of earth believe that two-thirds of the world s population will be living in
urban areas by the year 2025.
Something must be done!
In theory, most countries agree that there should be no trade in endangered species.
Ninety-five countries have signed the Convention on International Trade in Endangered
Species of Wild life and Fauna and Flora. The Conventions aims to forbid trade in endangered
species and to limit trade in any species whose population is declining fast.
However, in reality trade in endangered species is still big business. People can buy fur
coats made from the fur of jaguars, snow leopards and other cats facing extinction.

ROBOTS
A robot is a machine. But it is not just any machine. It is a special kind of machine. It is a
machine that moves. It follows instructions. The instructions come from a computer. Because it
is a machine, it does not make mistakes. And it does not get tired. And it never complains.
Unless you tell it to!
Robots are all around us. Some robots are used to make things. For example, robots can
help make cars. Some robots are used to explore dangerous places. For example, robots can
help explore volcanoes. Some robots are used to clean things. These robots can help vacuum
your house. Some robots can even recognize words. They can be used to help answer telephone
calls.
In the future, we w do. Or they
Or they will do things that are too dangerous for us.
Robots will help us fight fires. They will help us fight wars. They will help us fight sickness.
They will help us discover things. They will help make life better.
