The short story of traffic lights
Garrett Augustus Morgan was born on 4th March 1877 in Kentucky (USA) and died on 27th
August 1963 in Cleveland, Ohio (USA). He was an African-American inventor. His inventions made
people’s lives safer and more convenient. In 1877, Garrett A. Morgan was born to a poor African-
American family. When he was 14 he left school and went to work. He didn’t have much education
but he was very imaginative. He taught everything himself. Morgan worked in a sewing machine shop.
He got interested in machines. He always looked for better ways to do things. In 1901, Morgan
invented a special belt for sewing machines. He sold the idea for $150. But this was only the
beginning. Morgan invented many things. In 1914, Morgan invented a helmet to protect miners and
firefighters from smoke and gas. He won a gold medal for this invention.
Morgan looked for other problems to solve. Cars were very popular in the USA at that time.
The streets were crowded with cars, so there were many accidents. Morgan had an idea about a light
at each street comer. The light tells the cars to stop or go. He invented a timer that automatically
changed the light. Cities all over the country wanted to have Morgan’s traffic lights but he couldn’t
produce enough of them. In the 1920s, he sold his invention to the General Electric Company and got
$40,000. This was a large amount of money for that time.

Victor Vu’s drama Dear Brother (Toi thay hoa vang tren co xanh) was a rare phenomenon in
Vietnamese film history. As an adaptation of Nguyen Nhat Anh’s famous novel, the movie grossed $1
million from 350,000 admissions nationwide in its opening week, the third biggest opening ever in
Viet Nam. It was ranked as one of the highest grossing local films ever, earning over US$3.6 million in
total. The film depicted the challenges and jealousies of a 12-year-old boy towards his younger
brother. However, by the end of the film, he realized the true meaning of brotherhood. Despite the
fact that Vietnamese audiences often pay much attention to international movies rather than local
ones, this film was a huge success. This was partly thanks to its incredibly poetic trailer, engaging the
audience with the beautiful landscape of a Vietnamese province and their childhood memories.

History of Cinematography
Cinema is much younger than theatre. It was born at the end of the 19th century. The first people
who showed the first movies to a paying public were the Lumiere Brothers of France. They did this on
the 20th February 1896 at the Grand Cafe, Boulevard des Capucines, Paris. This was the first cinema
show and it was quickly followed by many others in all parts of the world. In 1996, we celebrated the
hundredth anniversary of cinematography.
The first films showed moving people and transport or newsreels of processions and wars, and
short comedies. In 1901 France was the first country to produce a dramatic film, The Story of a Crime,
which was followed by The Great Train Robbery in the United States in 1903.
At first, films were shown anywhere: in music halls, clubs and shops. In 1908, special film
theatres were built to give regular programmes. At this time cinema rapidly developed in both the
New and the Old World. Charlie Chaplin made his first film, Making a living, in 1914 in the USA. At that
time the world was crazy about Charlie, which was created by Charlie Spencer Chaplin. His Charlie,
35
small and clumsy yet kind-hearted, generous and brave, has attracted the hearts of simple people in
different countries. Sometimes they stood in long queues to see a film with their favourite actor. The
first films in the West were mainly melodramas or comedies.
Then, in 1927, Warner Brothers in Hollywood made the first film in which an actor sang and
spoke. The film was called Jazz Singer. It opened a new era in films - the era of the “talkies”. The film
mostly told its story with titles, but it had three songs and a short dialogue. There were long lines of
people in front of the Warner Theatre in New York. The silent film was dead within a year. The first
one hundred percent sound film, “Lights of New York”, appeared in 1928.
The first colour films were made in the 1930s, but the black-and-white films are made even
today.

starts on January 6th of each year. There are many parades and parties. This festival lasts for 2 weeks.
There is a parade each day when people dress up in colourful and beautiful clothes and walk through
the streets so crowds of people can see them. The traditional colours mostly worn at this festival are
Purple, which represents Justice’, Gold, ‘Power’ and Green, ‘Faith’.
(2) ________________________________ happens in a town called Pamplona in Spain. This is when
crowds of people run from many bulls (usually twelve bulls). People don’t do this to celebrate
anything; they just do it for fun, trying not to get hurt. The first bull running is on July 7th of each year.
Participants must be 18 years old, run in the same direction as the bulls.Every year, between 200 and
300 people are injured during the run although most injuries due to falls are not serious. Since 1910,
50
15 people have been killed in Pamplona.

August each year in the town of Bunol in Spain. Thousands of ripe Tomatoes are thrown at people in

over the world.
The week-long festival features music, parades, dancing, and fireworks. On the night before,
participants of the festival compete in a paella cooking contest. It is tradition for the women to wear
all white and the men to wear no shirts. The festival is in honour of the town's Saints and the Mother
of Christ.

Hill in Gloucester in England. From the top of the hill a round of Double Gloucester cheese is rolled,

themselves.

III. READING
Exercise 1. Fill in the blanks with suitable words in the box.
available used powers essential into
Energy is the ability to do work. We use energy every day in many different ways. It is (1)
____________ for our lives. The gas we use to make a cup of coffee for breakfast is energy, the petrol
77
in the bus that brings us to school is energy, the electricity that we use to give us light is energy, the
battery that (2) ____________ our mobile phone is energy. So, where does this energy come from?
Sources of energy are divided (3) ____________ 2 groups: Renewable energy and Nonrenewable
energy. Renewable energy is a source which can be replenished and is always (4) ____________. It
continues to be available for use by humans indefinitely. In contrast, non-renewable energy is a
source which cannot be replenished and eventually it will be (5) ____________ up. It disappears after
each use and can’t be used again.
Alternative Energy
Wind energy is a good example of renewable energy. It is the transformation of wind energy
into electricity, using wind turbines. Wind turbines are normally grouped together in windy locations
to form wind farms. Nowadays, many countries are developing wind energy, in fact the electricity
produced by wind power has increased by more than 40% in recent years. This production only
represents 1% of world-wide electricity use. The world’s largest offshore wind turbines are in Great
Britain. The turbines are 70 metres high and provide electricity for 3,000 houses.
1. Wind energy is an example of non-renewable energy.
2. A few countries are developing wind energy.
3. The electricity produced by wind power has decreased by more
than 40% in recent years.
4. The world’s largest offshore wind turbines are in Great Britain.
5. The turbines in Great Britain provide electricity for 3,000
houses.
Exercise 3. Read the text carefully then answer the following questions.
Energy is one of the most basic parts of our universe. The word energy comes from the Greek
word “energia”, meaning “at work”. Thus, energy means “the ability to do work”.
We use energy in everything. It lights and warms our homes, offices, streets, etc. It also cooks
our food, plays our music, washes our clothes, and gives US pictures on the television. Household
chores become easy with energy.
You can visit your favourite places with energy, too. Our vehicles, trains, planes, and rockets are
powered by energy. It also powers machines in factories and tractors on a farm.
Our main source of energy is the sun. The sun gives US light during the day. It dries our clothes
when they’re hanging outside on a clothesline. It helps plants grow. When animals eat the plants, the
78
energy is transferred to their bodies, so they are able to move and do work. Our bodies changed the
stored energy of the food into the energy to do work. We use this energy for walking, running,
reading, etc. How important energy is!
1. What does the word “energy” mean?

Air-travel is the most modem form of public transport and it was developed in the 20 th century.
It is also extremely expensive to set up air-travel facilities. Millions of people use airplanes for a
variety of reasons. Some travel for business, others go on holiday by air and others use cargo planes
to move their products from country to country very quickly. Some courier companies now have their
own fleet of planes ready to carry parcels and post more efficiently. There are different types of
passenger services - some are cheap and provide a ‘no-frills’ service which is good for short journeys.
Other airlines provide passengers with a luxurious flying experience. Ail-ports are getting busier and it
is evident that more passengers and businesses than ever are using airplanes to get to their
destinations.

Exercise 3. Read the text carefully then answer the following questions. (Write no more than 5
words.)
Smart Roads
Over a million people a year are killed in road traffic accidents, with tens of millions more
injured. The emergence of smart roads connected to the internet of things (IoT) can significantly help
to reduce road deaths, as IoT-enabled road sensors can instantly communicate with smart cars about
the best ways to avoid hazards or adverse road conditions.
A Portuguese scheme, co-funded by the European Union, is set to create around 1,000 kilometres
of smart roads in the country. This programme will see a series of cutting-edge transportation
technologies installed on the route, facilitating wireless communication between road-based
infrastructure nodes and smart cars.
It’s not just safety issues that technologically-enabled roads can help address, with Sweden
recently completing a pilot project that saw two kilometres of road transformed into an electrified
track that recharges modes of transport, such as electric cars and trucks while they drive. In the
future, wireless battery chargers will be found underneath roads, helping to reduce the level of air
pollution and virtually eliminating the need for fossil fuels to power cars.
1. Over a million people a year are killed in ________________________________.
2. A Portuguese scheme will see a series ________________________________of installed on the
route.

Exercise 1. Read and complete the table with words or phrases from the passage.
Canada is a North American country consisting of 10 provinces and three territories. It is
located in the northern part of the continent and it is the second largest country by total area.
The name Canada comes from the word “kanata” and it means “village or settlement”.
Canada referred to the part of New France and at the end, it became a possession of the
British Empire. Archeological and genetic studies say that 26500 years ago, Canada was populated by
aboriginal peoples. European colonisation started about 1497, and for many years, it was ruled by
New France and after by the British Empire. Because Britain still maintained control of Canada, it was
brought into World War I. Canada became independent in the 50s (exactly on the 1st of July, day of
Canada). Now, it is one of the Commonwealth Nations. Elisabeth the II is the head state and Canada is
one of the richest countries and the one which has the highest living standards. It has a wide variety
106
of animals such as beavers, bears, foxes... The capital city is Ottawa, but the biggest town is Toronto.
The national sport is Ice hockey, and there are many beautiful landmarks. Canada is really big with an
area of 9,984,670 km2 and 34,3 million people. In Canada two languages are spoken: English and
French. Native Indigenous are called Inuits and they live in igloos. In what concerns to geography, the
longest river is Mckenzie, the tallest mountain is Mount Logan and the lake is Bear Lake. So, come to
Canada and you’ll have fun!

The US is known as the land of opportunity. Thousands of people immigrate to the United States
every year from different parts of the world to access these kinds of opportunities. This is what is
known as "the American dream".
The US is also home to many of the world's top colleges and universities. The California
Institute of Technology is a top world-ranked college that focuses highly on science and engineering. It
is located in the city of Pasadena. Harvard University is another top world- ranked college that you
might be familiar with. The buildings at Harvard date back to the year 1636, making Harvard the
oldest university in the United States. It is located in the state of Massachusetts. University of
California, Los Angeles is another institute worthy of recognition. Located next to Hollywood, UCLA
has distinguished itself as a prestigious and selective university due to the number of people who
apply for admission throughout the United States. The universities mentioned are but a few of the
many other excellent schools that make the United States outstanding.

Exercise 3. Read the text carefully then answer the following questions. (Write no more than 5
words.)
Ireland is the name of an island. It is next to the islands of Britain. There are two parts of
107
Ireland: Northern Ireland is a part of the United Kingdom, and the Republic of Ireland is a different
country. Everywhere in Ireland you will see green, in fact Ireland’s other name is ‘the Emerald Isle’.
Green is one of the symbols of Ireland and everybody wears green on Saint Patrick’s Day, the Irish
national holiday.
The most famous symbol of Ireland is the shamrock. It became a symbol because it grows in
many places - and it has three leaves. The number three is very special for Irish people - some even
believe it is magic.
Another Irish symbol is the harp, and two other traditional instruments are the bagpipes and the
fiddle (‘fiddle’ is another word for ‘violin’) The Irish are famous for their playing, singing and dancing.
Leprechauns are Irish fairies. They are shoemakers, and they are not very friendly. They also have
secret pots of gold. If you find a leprechaun, you can look for his gold, but don’t look away from the
leprechaun. If you do, he will disappear - and so will the gold! Of course, this is only a superstition.

The idea of a driverless car is not new. Now there are already cars on the road that can park
themselves. But a truly self-driving car, one that can drive itself, is being tested by scientists and
engineers. Self-driving cars have already been tested on public roads. These cars not only record
images of the road, but their computerized maps view road signs, find alternative routes and see
traffic lights even before they are seen by a person. By using radars and cameras, the cars can analyse
information about their surroundings faster than a human can. In some of the tests, the car learns the
details of a road by driving on it several times, and when it is time to drive itself, it can identify when
there are pedestrians crossing and then stops to let them pass by. Self-driving cars could make
transport safer for all of us by eliminating the cause of most of today’s accidents. Although self-driving
cars may seem far off, some people believe that there will be driverless cars in showrooms in about
10 years.
1. There are already cars on the road.
2. These cars can only record images of the road.
3. The cars use radars and cameras to analyse information about their
surroundings very fast.
4. Self-driving cars can’t make transport safer.
5. There will be pilotless cars in showrooms in the next decade.
Solar Energy
Sunlight carries huge amounts of energy. You can feel the Sun’s energy when sunlight warms
your skin on a summer day. To capture the Sun’s energy, scientists have developed solar cells, called
photovoltaic cells. These cells convert sunlight into electricity.
When sunlight hits a solar cell, some of the light energy is absorbed. This light energy causes
the particles to move faster, and the movement of these particles creates electricity.
In some places, large panels of solar cells harvest sunshine to make electricity for homes and
businesses. Solar cells have been placed on cars and appliances, too. Since the Sun sends abundant
free energy streaming day toward Earth 24 hours a day, people in many parts of the world, not just
the sunniest places, have fixed solar cells and solar panels on the roofs of their houses or businesses
to lower their energy costs.
Experts say that the huge installation of solar panels in sunny regions could generate enough
116
electricity to supply an entire country. Capturing this energy can help overcome our diminishing
energy to maximize efficiency. New ways to capture this energy are being developed to maximize
efficiency.

Alaska is perhaps the most amazing state in the USA. It has coastlines 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 is a really fun scene to watch. Alaska is called the land of Midnight Sun because in
summer, the sun does not set for nearly three months. However, in winter the sun stays almost
unseen.

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 economically and try to find out alternative sources of power. According to Professor
Marvin Bumham of the New England Institute of Technology, we have to start saving 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? Radioactivity causes cancer and may
badly affect the future generations. The most effective thing is that we should use natural resources
as economically as possible.
