All forms of energy are stored in the energy sources that we use every day. These sources are divided into
two groups: renewable (an energy source that can be replenished in a short period of time) and
nonrenewable (an energy source that we are using up and cannot recreate in a short period of time).
Renewable and nonrenewable energy sources can be used to produce secondary sources including
electricity and hydrogen.
Renewable energy sources include wind, solar energy from the sun, geothermal energy from inside the
earth, biomass from plants, and hydropower and ocean energy from water. However, we get most of our
energy from nonrenewable energy sources, which include the fossil fuels - oil, natural gas, and coal. They are
called fossil fuels because they were formed over millions and millions of years by the action of heat from
the
earth’s core and pressure from rock and soil on the remains of dead plants and animals.
We use all these energy sources to generate the electricity we need for our homes, business, schools, and
factories. Electricity powers our computers, lights, refrigerators, washing machines, etc... We also use energy
to run our cars and trucks. Both gasoline used in cars and the diesel fuel in trucks are from oil.

Easter is on a different Sunday each year. But it is always in March or April. Easter is not a national holiday.
It is a religious holiday for Christians. For many people, Easter celebrates the beginnings of spring.
The English word Easter comes from the Old English word Eastre. Eastre was the name of the goddess of
spring and light. In the spring, flowers bloom and trees become green. The earth wears "new clothes" and so
do many people, literally.
Eggs and rabbits are signs of spring and new life. American children believe in an imaginary rabbit, the
Easter bunny. The night before Easter, the Easter bunny visits many homes. He brings children Easter
baskets with eggs and candy. Some Easter eggs are hard-boiled eggs in different colors. Other Easter eggs
are chocolate. The Easter bunt hides eggs in the house or in the yard outside. On Easter morning, children
look for eggs from the Easter bunny.
For millions of Christians, Easter is a religious holiday. Two days before Easter is Good Friday. Christians
believe Jesus Christ died on this day. Many schools and businesses close on Good Friday. Christians also
believe Jesus rose from the dead on Easter Sunday. Easter is a really joyful holiday for Christians. Many go to
church on Good Friday and at Easter.
On Easter Sunday, families often come together for a dinner of ham and lamb with fresh spring vegetables.
Dessert is often cake in the shape of a lamb or rabbit. And there is plenty of candy from the Easter bunny!
There is also an important Jewish holiday in the spring. For eight days, Jewish people celebrate Passover.
Passover and Easter are often in the same month.
23. Easter takes place on the same Sunday annually.

the correct answers (A, B, C or D) for questions 27 and 28. (1.5pts)
The people of Kiribati are afraid that one day in the not-too-distant future, their country will disappear
from the face of the earth - literally. Several times this year, the Pacific island nation has been flooded by a
sudden high tide. These tides, which swept across the island and destroyed houses, came when there was
neither wind nor rain. "This never happened before," say the older citizens of Kiribati.
What is causing these mysterious high tides? The answer may well be global warming. When fuels like oil
and coal are being burned, pollutants are released; these pollutants trap heat in the earth's atmosphere.
Warmer temperatures cause water to expand and also create more water by melting glaciers and polar ice
caps.
If the trend continues, scientists say, many countries will suffer. Bangladesh, for example, might lose one-
fifth of its land. The coral island nations of the Pacific, like Kiribati and the Marshall Islands, however, would
face an even worse fate - they would be swallowed by the sea. The loss of these coral islands would be
everyone's loss. Coral formations are home to more species than any other place on earth.

moon. Another case took place in 1961, when an American couple, Betty and Barley Hill, were caused by a
UFO while they were driving home one night in New Hampshire. The couple stopped to observe the UFO
through binoculars. To escape from it, they took the back roads and arrived home two hours later. Fourteen
years later, in 1975, one of the most shocking events happened in a small town in Arizona, when a
woodcutter called Travis Walton disappeared with a blue-green light from a flying saucer under his
teammates’ eyes.
Five days later, the missing woodcutter returned home and said, “I woke up on the UFO and found myself
among strangers with no hair and half-formed face. They put a mask over my face and I fell asleep again. I
