The zipper is a wonderful invention. They are very common so we forget that they are wonderful.
They are strong, but they open and close very easily. They come in many colors and sizes. In 1980s,
people in the US wore high shoes or clothes with a long row of buttons. It was hard for them to wear
anything. They wanted an easier way to put on and take off clothes. Whitcomb Judson invented the first
zipper in 1839. He called it a slide fastener. A zipper has three parts. There are dozens of metal or plastic
teeth in two rows. There are fastened to two flexible strips of cloth. A fastener slides along and fastens
the teeth together. When it slides the other way, it takes the teeth apart.

Learning a foreign language is, in some ways, like learning how to fly. There are some differences,
but there is a very important similarity. It is this: learning how to do these things needs a lot of practice.
It is never enough to read a book on how to fly a plane. A book can give you a lot of inebriation about
how to fly, but if you only read that book, then try to fly without any practice, you will kill yourself. The
same is true of learning a foreign language. For example, can you speak English well without having lots
of practice? "Practice makes perfect" is what every learner of a foreign language should know.

V. Read the passage and decide the statements are TRUE or FALSE.
Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the world’s energy
resources are limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left. However, we also should use them

the New England Institute of Technology, we have to start conserving coal, oil and gas before it is too
late; and nuclear power is the only alternative.
However, many people do not approve of using nuclear power because it’s very dangerous. What
would happen if there was a serious nuclear accident? Radioactive causes cancer and may badly affect
the future generations.
The most effective thing is that we should use natural resources as economical as possible.
1. Natural resources will never run out.
2. According to Mr. Burnham, there is no substitute for coal, gas and oil.

Air pollution is a cause of ill health in human beings. In a lot of countries, there are laws limiting the

smoke in the atmosphere, doctors have proved that air pollution cause lung diseases.
The gases from the exhaust of cars have also increased air pollution in most cities. The lead in petrol
produces a poisonous gas which often collects in busy streets surrounded by high buildings. Children
who live in areas where there is a lot of lead in the atmospheres can not think as quickly as other
children and are clumsy when they use their hands.
There are other long term effects of pollution. If the gases in the atmosphere continue to increase,
the earth’s climate may become warmer. A lot of the ice near the pole may melt and may cause serious
floods.

V. Read the passage below carefully and choose the correct answer.
Long ago, a lot of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was just a light in the
sky. And others thought it was a big ball of cheese!
The telescopes were made. And men saw that the moon was really another world. They wondered
what it was like. They dreamed of going there.
In July, 1969, that dream came true. Two American men landed on the moon. Their names were Neil
Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. The first thing the men found was that the moon is covered with dust. The
dust is so thick that the men left footprints where they walked. Those were the first marks a living thing
had ever made on the moon. And they could stay there for years and years. There is no wind or rain to
wipe them off.
The two men walked on the moon for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to earth for study.
They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know. Then
they climbed back into their moon landing craft.
Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon. They joined Michael
Collins in the spaceship that waited for them above the moon. Then they were off on their long trip back
to earth. Behind them they left the plains and tall mountains of the moon. They left the machines they
had set up. And they left footprints they may last forever.
